“This review is for Momma Kay.She was wonderful. Very attentive. Loved her personality. Made my boyfriend and I feel very well taken care of. We really liked her. Didn’t have to ask her for much. So pleasant to speak with. Made our day better. Got us smiling. We had a long drive back home.Food was good.I personally don’t like crowded places which is why the atmosphere is 3. But I can’t control rush hour. This place has the best pancakes. In my own opinion.“

“A great meal and a terrific experience. The food was very good, the staff were friendly and kind, and the whole atmosphere of the community was peaceful and high quality. We enjoyed walking around the adjacent shops afterwards. Great place to get off the highway or meet halfway between Austin and Dallas. Would definitely come back.“

“This lives up to its hype! It's a bit noisy, but everyone, staff and customers alike, are friendly and relaxed! Food is plentiful. The bacon jam is outstanding! Fries are really yummy, and I rarely eat them anywhere! Make sure if you want souvenirs from "The Table" you visit the food market there... that's the only place you can get them.“

“LOVE the freshness of every dish! I went to this location in Waco and to my surprise it was beautiful. The other location was in Georgetown (nice location as well). However, it’s never a good feeling when dining in the restaurant. I went 2x in the same day just to see the difference between the day and night staff. Both times I sat at the bar, and the service was good. As I approached the door to enter a man a woman walked right in front of me and the man let the door close in my face! I’m so sick of people being rude, it makes me not want to spend my money in the establishment. Although they can’t control others behaviors, it just sucks!“

“Came in with my bestie and SIX kids all under 10 years old. Everyone was very kind and accommodating despite the fact our rugrats were bouncing off the walls. Very affordable (seriously, 5.99 for a kids meal that come in a little car?! Love it!) I will definitely stop again next time I’m in Waco! “

“Everything was on point !! The music , the service, and especially the food . The spaghetti squash was really good! The extra side of asparagus i ordered was amazing!!! And my husband's pork chop was amazing as well .. huge portions!For the appetizer we had the small charcuterie board the presentation of it was beautiful. It was so good.“

“Always a home run or touchdown when visiting George's. My safety is number one. I always feel safe and secure at either location. Great place to have parties, dinner, lunch, or breakfast. Great place to meet new people and all the usual. For relaxing and business meetings. It is one of my favorite places for family and friend gatherings. Gotta love Waco locals❣️God bless us all❣️?❣️?❣️Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free“

“The dry aged steak was super good! One of the better steaks I’ve had in a while. But the bacon slab appetizer was not great. Came out cold and just didn’t taste that good. The service was excellent! We loved our server. Atmosphere was dated. Needs a bit of a makeover. The bud lights and various cheap beers on display above the bar seem like an odd choice.“

“Sascee's. I'm not usually on that side of town when she is open. I got to visit with her for a bit. I arrived right at closing time. I started to walk away when I saw that they were closed. She came out and got me. I love a business owner with a go get 'em attitude.“

“Dave's food trailer was in Mexia, Tx on Wednesday, April 17th and it was my first time stopping by for food. It came highly recommended by a co-worker. I ordered a double-meat cheeseburger with mustard, extra lettuce & diced onions, and a large order of home fries, and a coke from the sweetest lady in the world. She asked me if this was my first time eating there from the truck and I told her it was my first time trying Dave's Burgers at all. The man cooking, I assume was "Dave" said, "Well we welcome you and thanks for stopping!" She gave me a bunch of business card magnets to pass out where I work. When I got to work, I opened my bag of food at the front gate and shared some of those fries with the guy at the front gate. He was like, "OMG! Those are those good fries! Those homemade ones!" Yes! They were amazing and had a small bite of sweetness to them. I couldn't wait to taste my burger. When I got to my office, I wolfed down a few more handfuls of fries then unwrapped my burger. I was like , I couldn't believe the monster burger I had there. I know it must have been 2/3 pounds of meat on there with 2 perfectly melted slices of American cheese. My bun was perfectly toasted, the perfect amount of mustard was on there as well as my extra shredded lettuce and diced onions. The meat patties were seasoned deliciously with what tasted like a garlic, salt, & pepper blend, maybe a little onion powder too. Whatever seasonings they used made me come to realize that I had just eaten the best burger I had ever eaten in my life. It was so big it made me two meals out of it that day cause I cut it in half. Next time, I will definitely order me two orders of fries. One to eat then and one to save for later because they were the type of fries you could reheat and they'd be just as good as when I got them fresh, unlike those hard fast food matchsticks that you have to eat in 5 minutes or less. Overall, I have to thank my stomach for telling me to stop at Dave's. I go to Waco once a month for my doctor, but now I can look forward to seeing Dave's Burgers food trailer in Mexia. Thanks y'all for bringing Waco's BEST burger to our small town. I certainly appreciate y'all and look forward to seeing you both again.“

“I was in your restaurant Wednesday for the first time. My husband and I were meeting friends I went to school with over 50 years ago. I just picked Bubba’s 33 by chance. The service and the food were EXCELLENT! The manager, I think his name was Mike even stopped by the table. We arrived at 12:30 and never left until 5:00. I was so impressed that during that time no one tried to get us to leave or rush us out. I live in Austin but the next time we’re in Waco we will definitely be back. We did leave the server a generous tip for sitting so long. I highly recommend Bubba’s 33 in Waco.Parking: No problem parking but unfortunately there were no handicap spots available. Still it was fine.Wheelchair accessibility: We were given a table that was easily accessible for my wheelchair.“

“I have to yell from the rooftop how amazing the service and food is at LA Fiesta. There is one particular person I really want to shout out also. Everytime I see her I call her AWESOME!!! Her customer service skills are spot on and she will get you right everytime. SADE that's my girl come check her out on $2 Magarita Tuesdays at the bar. As this generation says she is a whole vibe. Don't believe me? Come by for yourself especially on a Tuesday and watch my girl work and keep you satisfied. I had to shout her out just to give her roses an individual. Again people come check her outand show her some LOVE!!!“

“Order 1st, no tipping per the signs, have a seat, and wait for the deliciousness to begin! All the food was delicious! They have a pong out back where you can feed the turtles and fish. Keep your eye out for the spying gator! Eat, drink, and be Tejan!“

“Excellent food, good service, fair prices & adequate seating in this order-at-the-counter burger restaurant. Although it's a neighborhood burger joint in a non-descript strip center, over the years it has developed a big customer following. The menu features mainly different styles of burgers - ala carte or in a combo with an accompaniment and drink - each one tasty and as dressed up as you like. Tom's Burgers is highly recommended as a satisfying alternative to a fast food burger chain..“

“We visited Waco with some friends who wanted to see Magnolia. After that, we wanted to try out a local brewery and found Waco Ale Co. several of us tried flights and some snacks. It was a good way to spend some time and enjoy some local brews. Would stop here again if in town again.“

“The food was delicious, but everything was slightly spicy. Even the candied yams, with the exception of the Sundae.Service was impeccable.Atmosphere was homely with a slight rowdy tint, like an old diner. Especially tinted in the bar section.Parking: Due to the location on the edge of a large parking lot, there's more parking than you can ask for.“

“The lady who helped us was outstanding! She gave my son some suggestions on what type of wings flavors he should try, and he loved them. She even kept coming to check on him to see if he enjoyed them. My chicken sandwich was good, and my daughter enjoyed her chicken strips. The only issue we had was that all of fries were cold, like they were cooked and sitting out too long then thrown on our plates.“

“Drove from Round Rock to meet up with family and get some get BBQ. It was our first visit but don't be our last! We arrived before the rest of our group and had a great conversation with the owner while we waited. He was extremely welcoming and friendly. I had the sausage and brisket with coleslaw and pinto beans...all very delicious. The prices are VERY reasonable, especially for BBQ. It's a simple and humble locale, but clean and hospitable. Definitely a great place to take the family, and was with the drive.“

“Staying at Waco Surf, this is a must stop for southern comfort food. The best sweet tea, country fried steak, huge side of fried okra and a decent garden salad all for reasonable price. The atmosphere has animals on the wall and you definitely get the small town tavern charm.Parking: Large gravel lot, parks probably 30 vehiclesKid-friendliness: Kids menu with burgers, grilled cheese, chicken fingers, fries, veggies, green beans, and mashed potatoes“

“We went last night and to service was amazing. The staff was unbelievably friendly the food was delicious I can’t say enough good things about it. It is rare you go out these days and get that kind of service. Thank you so much, I just wish I got the gentleman’s name that took our order he was so nice. Great job!!!“

“To be honest, I was skeptical as to why everyone raved about it so much!! But now that I've had it, the chicken is absolutely AMAZING. And let's not forget their sauce...my one complaint would be their lack of side options!! I think they should add at least a few more side choices!! And they could do so very easily at very little cost to them! Green beans, Mac and cheese, and corn would be easy enough. Oooo and mashed potatoes too...“

“I went in with a friend and the owner kindly greeted us and broke down the menu as it was our first time. As we waited she chatted, made a connection, and told us about the area. The service was quick and the food was incredible! Thank you Mrs. Evans!“

“My fiancé and I were here for our rehearsal dinner. The owner and the manager came out made sure that everything was perfect. The atmosphere was amazing and the waiters were very responsive. The short rib and banana foster bites were delicious! I highly recommend anyone taking the opportunity to have a special dinner here.“

“I will go to my grave saying Griff's has the best burger in the Waco area. It's totally stealth, looking like some garbage grill in a no-name gas station. If this keeps people from packing the place out, so be it. They absolutely nail diner favorites. My favorite thing about Griff's is that it's a local joint. Not trying to be anything for outsiders. No trying to sell you on anything. It's as straightforward as it gets.“

“It was a great night for me and my girlfriend.the hippodrome was really nice has a lot of history behind it the workers were really nice. Hell one of the ladies took me and my girlfriend to whataburger so we would not have to wait there for an Uber if and when I get a chance to go back I’ll be there“

“Where do I even start with this place!? I’m not even gonna get into the food cause it speaks for its self but we had an absolutely amazing experience here thanks to DANIELLE talk about friendly and over all awesome was so sweet to me and my daughter we will for sure be coming back just for her impeccable service!!!!!!“

“I went today in light of Black History Month. Not being around the area and wanting some GOOODDD FOOD!! Baby they didn’t disappoint!! Catfish was fried hard, fresh and well seasoned. The baked Mac and cheese had these smoked cheese taste!! It’s truly is amazing and definitely will be returning!!This is definitely a family owned joint and they live up to just that!!“

“First time eating at Longhorn, and it was absolutely delicious. We all were stuffed. The waitress was so happy and attentive. My son is autistic but I was shocked he ate the whole meal! Even some of mine!Super fresh food tons for your money.Dephinitly will be back!Kid-friendliness: Plenty if options for your picky eaters“

“If y’all ever in Waco, TX…. Come see about Broken G BBQ…. Chileeeee this BBQ is ready ? ?The owner was really cool and they had great customer service. I will be back soonI didn’t go too hard… smoked links and ribs side of Baked beans and potato salad ?????#supportblackbusiness #blackownedbusiness“

“First time here and I was very impressed!! Will definitely be back when we are in the area!! I had the chicken salad sandwich with a side of fruit and my husband had pancakes and eggs. Everything was great including our waitress. Wish I’d have gotten her name. Tall brown haired woman with an infectious smile! :“

“I go 3 times a week. I love the generousity and compassion shown. Very good nice clean and freshly made food. Excepts all, I thank God for blessing their hearts ? to think of every human I in need of a meal with much love. ???I ask that God continues to bless them with the patience and strength to continue this gratitude.“

“I finally got a opportunity to try Grady's Grub and it was the best food truck experience I have ever had. The food was absolutely amazing get out there guys and get some you won't be disappointed. Thank you guys at Grady's Grubs keep doing an awesome job!!!!“

“Me and my Husband love to go to The Grape for special occasions and the food is absolutely amazing and delicious!!! Great atmosphere every time we go!! They sometimes have live music and it’s wonderful!!! I highly recommend to everyone !!!“

“This is a good place for a good meal regardless if it's lunch or dinner. Good music, not to loud, plenty of room to walk and get around. I can't stand a restaurant that makes you feel like your not able to move or get out quick if need be.Salty dog has people of all sorts, super dressed up or just plain tshirts and jeans. The only reason I gave a 4 star on service is because there was only 1 waitress, she was super nice and handled things well for it to just be her. Food was VERY good! They also have beverages of just about any kind. ?“

“Salt grass is always fantastic. I couldn't ask for a better prepared steak. My son got some chicken dish that he would not stop raving about. I did not get the garlic mashed potatoes this time and I miss them but sweet potato fries were delicious. It was a Friday night, about 6:30pm, no wait except line to get to hostess.“

“This is not a "fast" food place. Expect to take your time. We were in a large group and so ordered drinks and some appetizers. She came by almost 20 minutes after we got the appetizers to take our order for entrees. Again it took 20-30 minutes to get our food. It was worth the wait. Food was really good and served hot.“

“10/10 recommend Camp FIMFO! The cabin was perfect for what we needed and the water park was so fun! We went during off season and still had a blast! Be prepared if you go during off season not all amenities are available! But overall loved it!“

“Hello everyone i know so many investors are confused and go into deep research, for a trusted and legit platform to trade and invest in.

“They were busier than I expected! Everything ordered came on time, food was delicious! Since we recently had a terrible experience at our original Italian place we've been taking our daughters to try their pasta at different places and cheddars did their job! The restaurant and server made our evening amazing. My daughters had their pasta me and husband our margaritas, highly recommend this location“

“I thought it was a tad pricey for burgers, but they were good, their fries were great! We all loved the outdoor playground as the kids got to play while we waited for our food. We didn't get to sit outside cause it was cold, but I loved the outdoor seating! Place was clean, staff was friendly and the food was good!“

“This is Texas and Southern courtesy, y'all Yankees listening?? ? jk love our northern cuzzins, but if you want some good col berr and a smile from a nice bartender, coke down. From west Texas, first time in Waco, and won't be the last!! Go Bears! Madison is grrrrreat! Cheyenne (i think her name is) is cool too!“

“Quite busy on Sunday morning but food came in a timely manner, and was very good. My wife had bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns, w/ toast, while I enjoyed the chickenfried steak, and eggs, also w/ hashbrowns and toast. Although, I'm sure it's changed owners since I was a kid but I can remember having breakfast there 40 yrs ago. I believe it was called " Mitchell's " back then?“

“Pizza. Wings. Beer. And salads lol local craft beer as well as regional and your typical domestics. Slices of pizza are pretty large, a whole pizza comes in 2 sizes and can feed 3 adults (14")or 5 adults (20").Location is incredible. On the ride, a deck that overhangs the river....absolutely fabulous location ? you're almost a fool to NOT come here!“
