Very trendy beach setting. Ambience was nice but very loud and crowded vibe. Service was excellent. Food and cocktails were top notch but the price was a bit much IMO. Party of 3, 5 cocktails and 3 Apps to share. Tab was $200 with tip. Next time would get an App and entree to share as we left sort of hungry.
Incredible food. I never thought I'd day this, but the Caesar salad is unforgettable- it needs to be experienced by everyone, even if you only eat the ‘croutons'. Fantastic service, great cocktails, and a lovely and fun environment with live music some nights. We will def intely be back.
Went there for Breakfast before and had a great experience, but that was not the case last night for dinner. The hostess was great, bar was great, servers were nice, but the service and food were just not up to par and the meal was average. Our food arrived at all different times so by the time we all got served two meals were cold. My pork chop was overcooked and the salmon was not very good. Everything was just ok and we had just expected more.
We had the Caesar salad and French fries and the salad was amazing!! Their happy hour is great too but end at 5. Service was really good too. Everything coming out looked terrific. The only thing that was an issue was the seating from the hostess. We made reservations and asked for a seat but there was a couple that was super close so we wanted a different seat not right next to someone. It seemed to be a big issue and she was kind of snippy to us about wanting to change our seat. All in all, I'd go back and recommend it highly!
Took family visiting from out of town. Cute restaurant. Sat outside. A little breezy. The croutons are the best for the salads. The margarita is delish!
Food is deli deli delicious! The twist on their egg salad sandwich is a must try and pair with a bottle of their orange wine from Georgia (the country), it was devine! We had a great time.
I love Waverly for lunch, the food is always delicious and fresh and I love the drinks. The music could be a little less loud. But service is fast and friendly!
This was our first visit. The atmosphere was lovely, and the cocktails were creative and delicious.
Super cute, great food, amazing service! I'd like to come back for their brunch - dinner was perfect.
Super yummy with lovely beautiful staff! The music was bit too loud for talking but we still loved it! Ohh the moonlight margaritas are delicous!

We came on the Grass Skirt tiki takeover night to celebrate an anniversary. It was really fun!! I know it's not their usual vibe (looking forward to coming back for that) however it was great! Lei's and hair clips for all, tiki themed food and beverage menu! Hope they do it again sometime! Service was excellent and we were presented with a yummy celebratory dessert. Definitely will be back. We sat outside and there are heaters, so for me I could stay in my cute tropical outfit sans sweater 👌🏽
The protein added to salads came ten minutes after salad. No refills on any drinks were offered. Felt ignored by server.
As usual, it was awesome!!! The service was very good, ambiance was great and we loved our food!
Good selection of breakfast items. Food was fresh and well cooked or prepared. Prices were good. Had 4% service charge on bill. Waitress was friendly, attentive and did a great job.
Waverly is one on my favorite restaurants. We had friends in town and I suggested Waverly for Saturday night. There were six of us, so, I wrote in the comments, “Please call me so we can discuss seating for our group of six.” Hint: You need to know “lounge vs Dining.” They never called so I called them to discuss seating. I made it clear that we didn't want to sit outside by the grassy area where kids play loudly. The receptionist on the phone said she would make every effort to seat us at a traditional table in the dining area. One of the members of our group had an emergency so, I called and said there would just be five. When we arrived at the restaurant, my husband and I looked at the options: 1) outside west with seating at a banquette on one side and stools with no backs on the other side. The stools were out of the question for dining. We asked if they could be changed them out with chairs, and the response was, “Oh, no, we couldn't do that!” 2) Then, she said that there were tables she could set up for 5 outside, but that was in the loud kiddie area. 3) An area with two round cocktail tables that she could push together, but there were only 3 chairs, but when we asked if we could pull other chairs close to the tables, she said, “no we can't do that!” 3) The one last option was on the east side, inside, so three of us would sit on a high banquette and two on chairs, but she had a 7 o'clock reservation there, so we would have to leave at 7pm. My husband heard her comment, but I did not, as the others in our party were just arriving and I was greeting them. At 7pm, as we were deciding about our dessert options, our waitress said “the 7 O'clock guests will be here in three minutes and you will have to leave.” Our guest who was treating us was quite upset! In summary, we will continue to dine here, but never again with 5 or 6 people. The food and server were great, except for a dish that was very spicy, with no indication showing it on the menu.
