“1 - Excellent food…fried pickles appetizer gone in 60 seconds; burgers were awesome; tater tots add beyond yummy…and stay crispy enough for next day breakfast ( because they give you a portion that you WILL have another meal) 2 - Speedy, friendly customer service…very attentive staff….we tipped well over the standard 20% because it was so good! 3 - beautiful, lively atmosphere…air coolers for outdoor eating, which we chose despite the heat/humidity Most importantly, I was an out of tower and this was my last meal with local family before flying out the next morning. Dumb a** me left my wallet at the restaurant and didn’t realize until getting ready to leave for the airport at 0830. We stopped by the restaurant to see if it was still in the outdoor eating area…nope. Luckily, ran into the contractor doing some work…he called the owner, the owner confirmed it was in the office safe. After hearing I needed to make the AM flight to DFW for connection to home, he dispatched an employee to go in on a planned closed day to get my wallet. This kindness allowed me to make my flight…what he didn’t know is this act of kindness was critical because I had a new job in-person interview scheduled for the next day. Forever grateful. THAT is customer service. Thank you so much! Tells a lot about the culture and dedication to customers. Keep up the awesome work…I will be back. Promise to keep better accountability of my wallet!“

“Had a 5 Napkin mushroom Swiss, the onions spent sometime on the grill*. Tough to get the whole thing in my mouth or keep the patty sliding out. It was a packed burger. Okra side is the way to Go! My Dr said have a good lunch and I did.“

“Max was our server tonight and he was excellent! It was super busy and sooo loud for some reason, but he was patient, kind, and got everything out perfectly! Austin was also very helpful! Great food and service all around!“

“The food was excellent, and our waitress Kayla was outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful.“

“The wait time with no reservations was over an hour but We had made reservations in advance. Was able to get seated within 10 minutes of our reservation time. Waitress was AMAZING!! She made the visit better than expected. Food was delicious. Will definitely return every-time I'm out that way. The restaurant exceeded my expectations. “

“I have eaten at Tejun several times. I always enjoy the food. Only issue I have is the butter to corn on the cob ratio. Now I loooove butter. But I don't want it running through my veins. I usually get the boiled shrimp, which is always excellent and the potatoes are perfectly cooked, good butter to potato ratio there.👍 Spices are 👌, not too overwhelming so I can still taste the flavor of the food. Except the corn.“

“I was kinda surprised that everything in Waco closed at 10pm on graduation night. Logan's was accommodating to us by letting our party trickle in past closing time to give our graduate a decent meal. Although we were the last ones to show because we had to bring the graduate, our food was fresh and the allowed us to stay unrushed until we were done. Logan's may want to look into staying open later/taking reservations for after graduation since it's ends after everything closes“

“Want to thank the General Manager, Margaret Burch, for tracking me down to return a birthday card which included a check accidentally left there by a family member. I appreciated her going that extra mile to do the right thing. We have been to The Brown House Cafe several times over the summer and really enjoy the great service and excellent food. It’s worth the drive from Gatesville for some good home cooking. Thanks, Margaret!“

“🙃I was there with friends today 9/1 and wasn't expecting much. This was my first time at TOPGOLF. Our group was in the table area with the jenga games. A server came greeted us and took out drink orders. Then a little later she came to take our food orders. What impressed me was to took out order without using a paper pad or electronic pad. When the food came it was very delicious and tasty. Our server impressed me more than she realizes when she came to ask if we needed anything else multiple times. I wish I remembered her name to I could call her out by name - but I can't remember her name. If I could let her know how much I appreciate her friendliness and courtesy by name I would - hopefully she knows that and I thank her.“

“We had a fantastic experience at Chili's in Waco thanks to Tara, the manager. Our party of eight included four small children, and after waiting about 20 minutes, we were told there would be an additional 30-minute wait. Tara noticed our hungry kids and quickly stepped in to help. She went out of her way to find a table large enough for us and even got our drinks and orders started right away. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and so sweet to our kids. Her warmth and helpfulness truly made our dining experience a great one. Thank you, Tara! You went above and beyond, and we really appreciated it!“

“THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS AND ITS FAST SERVICE“

“Walk on food is really good n I can’t wait to eat there again“

“We celebrated my husband’s 75th birthday here today. The service was good, the atmosphere relaxed and friendly and the food was very good. It was not crowded and we did not feel rushed. Would definitely recommend and eat there again.“

“Had a breakfast combo that included French toast. #1 It’s huge. I thought I had two slices of thick bread. Nope, one thicc chonk of bread. #2 The perfect blend of sweet/buttery/savory. #3 I felt like I was tasting a piece of my childhood amped up with gourmet flair. Most folk probably don’t think of IHOP as gourmet but yeah.

Lovely staff, fabulous food, 10/10, no notes. Thank you.“
