High quality diner food
Magnolia Cafe is an Austin classic. It's open 24/7 and it has a big, creative menu. They've got basics like burgers and omelets, plus some tex-mex and they serve breakfast all day, like any self-respecting diner.
Unfortunately there's usually a wait (especially on weekends) because it's so popular and tasty, but it's worth it!

Good enough for a diner in New York
DIners are supposed to be kind of dingy and, most importantly, really cheap. Remedy is a little too spiffy-looking, and the food is about $2 more expensive than I typically like to pay at a diner, but...in New York city you can't expect to find anything better, really (as far as diners go). The food is fairly tasty, it's got booths, and it generally achieves providing a diner experience.
I had brunch here and was actually quite impressed. It's $15 for two courses (not bad for New York brunch) and they definitely give you plenty of food. There are also lots of good, surprisingly creative options on the brunch menu. I got huevos rancheros, and it was served in a crispy taco bowl with saffron rice and chorizo. My friends got the breakfast burrito, which was huge and looked delicious. Regular non-brunch breakfast items are around between $6 and $10. Most other menu items $10 or less.
Big bonus: open 24 hours.
I recommend it if you're after a laid back diner experience in New York. Or if you just want a fairly cheap breakfast/lunch.

A Houston landmark
What Houston lacks in charm and beauty it more than makes up for in greasy, awesome food. House of Pies has been around since the 1960s (a long time in Houston years!) and is the ultimate in late-night dining. Open 24 hours, it's one of the only refuges for bored/drunk/stoned citizens in the wee hours.
Obviously there's a huge selection of pies, but there's also an entire menu of fantastic diner food. My typical order is a slice of French Blackbottom or Bayou Goo and a side of tater tots (or "cottage fries" as they mysteriously refer to them). OR I get the waffle platter because I'm convinced it's the best waffle in the whole state. Hands down. Get the waffle platter.
It's also just a great place to go hang out with friends without having to worry about the place closing down on you. My formative years would not have been the same without it.
