My wife and I chose well when we were through Waco yesterday. I wanted to show her Health Camp for the famous burgers, but we were due for a stretch and a proper sit, so we decided to take a chance to Brazos Landing. It was perfect. Highlights: William at the bar helping make it the special stop it was. We will certainly be back on our next trip. Recommend: shrimp & grits, Southern Roots IPA.

My husband had the Snapper and he loved it I had the Sea Bass and it was excellent! For dessert we had the lemon cheesecake and it was very good! The bakery chef is very good and makes unique desserts.
