“We drive 2 hours to come here to eat. It never disappoints. We've toured the farm and to know that all of the food is fresh and framed there is amazing. The bold flavors burst through when eating.“

“The food was so delicious! The owner could not have been nicer to us and so very helpful. I highly recommend the red snapper!!! You won’t be disappointed“

“The restaurant has flourished in the last year. Have tried multiple entrees and appetizers and all have been excellent. Highly recommend“

“This place is awesome 😎 highly recommend!“

“Great food and wonderful service! The waitress wad cheerful and informative! (our first time there) The only suggestion I have is that the chairs were very uncomfortable.It wasn't just our table of seven. I saw other customers struggling. just a consideration to think about. I give the a 4.9“

“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!“

“Have you ever been walking down the street and see a place that looks interesting? This evening my wife and I saw the doors and stepped in. No we didn’t have a reservation and beyond excited to see they had a single open table. I make it a habit to ask the waiter what they recommend and let them plan my meal. Coby led the journey this evening full of excellent choices. I highly recommend this place for a very romantic dinner of conversation with amazing food and even better staff. We will be back!“

“Just happened to be traveling through Waco and decided to stop for some food and a drink; happened upon Barnett’s Whiskey House and I’m glad we did. The food was most excellent, the atmosphere was good and the service was top notch! Looking forward to hearing the live music later this evening. Will definitely stop in anytime I come through or near Waco.“

“It takes a lot to impress me. When I go out to eat it better be Damn good!! Well!! Magnolia table is just that. Absolutely phenomenal all the way around!! My wife and I had the spinach artichoke dip and a bowl of the mushroom bisque for appetizers . I had the orange glazed salmon with Brussel sprouts au gratin and the sticky toffee cake for dessert. My wife had the bucatini with spinach artichoke sun dried tomato sauce and the peanut butter parfait for dessert. Absolutely delicious!! We will be back and go to the silo as well next time!! Well worth driving from Tulsa Oklahoma in the pouring down rain yesterday !“

“We LOVE Hokkaido! We especially enjoy it when we are under the weather. (Like a lot of us are right now). We find it is warm and satisfying. A couple of observations that may be worth taking note of: 1. Online ordering is hit and miss. The hours on the ordering website (chowbus) aren’t accurate and sometimes the add-ons or subtractions aren’t taken into account. 2. I noticed that some staff members park in the front. This wouldn’t concern me so much if it wasn’t for the handicapped patrons. Maybe I am missing something? Anyhoo, all in all, it is a great atmosphere and the food is absolutely delicious, and frankly, that’s why we go.“

“Delicious food and phenomenal service! I had the carne asada tacos. The meat is delicious and so flavorful. They have so many salsas to choose from. I love how everything is so fresh and made by them. That’s not easy to find. Their service is also worth noting. Everyone working there is so friendly! 10/10 food and service.“

“What a wonderful surprise! Don’t let the neighborhood keep you away. I had the gyro plate and the meat was so tender I cut it with my plastic fork…like butter. It was delicious. The hummus was great as well as the chicken kabob. I especially loved that it is family owned and run. A very special place. We will be back.“

“Ordered for a group of around 50. Food was phenomenal. Every single family style tray was great!“

“Great food and great beverages great atmosphere as awhole“

“Such a gem! The food is always on point, but the service is consistently impeccable! From the carpaccio, bruschetta, roasted beet salad, and burratta to the fish entrees , pastas, & and cocktails, I have never been disappointed.“

“Even if you eat inside, go out on the roof! An October evening was perfect to come up here, just the right temperature!
I can't stop thinking about the crispy sweet potatoes. I would say if you come here and not get them you missed out on a dish you may never have anywhere else!
Both the sea bass and lobster tagliatelle were excellent! I want to eat sea bass much more frequently after that dish
Lastly, chess pie was amazing, the lemon curd really helped contrast it, well done chef!“

“This is such a hidden gem. Their food is very special and creative and the taste is suuuuper good! I ordered stuffed avocado with salmon, the drizzle is a perfect touch. The vibe feels like family and I’m touched to see Tom & Jerry playing on the TV. They just have great taste over all kinds of everything! Will definitely visit again next time in Waco. Can’t wait to try their sandwiches!“

“Highly recommend. Our first but definitely not our last time coming here. A hidden gem“

“We stopped for ice cream after supper and it was amazing. The coffee and cookie crumble was amazing. I loved the homemade waffle cones.“

“2. Chocolate chip: chewy middle, large chocolate chunks, solid!
1. Silo cookie: soft interior with crunchier exterior, some crunch throughout— SO delicious
5.Oatmeal chocolate chip cookie: very soft, a little grainier
4.Peanut butter oatmeal: rough and rowdy!
6. Vanilla shortbread: crumbly, not too sweet
3. Vegan salted caramel: crunchy and a bit harder“

“Very busy place. The portions were large, but not so large that you wasted food. Staff was very friendly. I got the Avocado bacon scramble, it was a hearty dish, I couldn't eat it all at about 90% of it. Husband got Ham Bacon and Cheese Skillet with hash browns; he ate about 90% of it; got too full. My mother got another skillet and was pleased with the taste of everything. My friend and her mother got Avocado Mash and the other got a pancake with an egg. Overall worth the price paid for the quality of the food.“

“the food is great. but the place needs to be cleaned up.“

“We had the wonderful opportunity to eat at McDowell’s today. Our meal was perfect. We both had catfish and all the trimmings. I strongly recommend you go! Mr Mac is wonderful. We will definitely be back soon!“

“Excellent Thai food. Very authentic and very tasty! It is spicy, so order mild if you don't care for spice.“

“The turkey muffaletta was great as always. This is a delicious sandwich with olive tapenade and I highly recommend it. There was an error with my online order and when I sent the owner feedback, he graciously sent me the purchase price of my meal plus a little bit extra on a gift card. this is the way to take care of people and I will definitely return to Jason's deli again without a doubt! The food is always wonderfully fresh and consistent and you should do yourself a favor and go there today!“

“It was our first visit, we will be back The food was great, service was amazing and hospitality like you get from those down home country cafes.“

“Food was amazing. Would go back in a heartbeat“

“1st of all, thank you for the veteran day meal. My husband and I are both vets and it was appreciated. I just wanted to comment about your water. It had a bad taste and when I asked for another glass the waitress stated she had been told Waco water systems had been doing something and the water had a different taste. We live in Waco and our water at home doesn’t have that taste. You might want to test your filtration system at the restaurant. The only other comment I have is since the water was undrinkable the waitress asked it I wanted tea. I said yes and was charged 3.50 for it. Those prices are ridiculous but since I was getting the soup and salad for free I didn’t complain.“

“I think I speak for ALL of America when I say this — Bring back the normal chicken!! This new chicken is NASTY. Sincerely a former customer 😩“

“Great food and great beverages great atmosphere as awhole“

“This is my first visit here in over 12 years. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food and fast service. Their lunch prices are very reasonable especially with the cost of food now. I’ll definitely be coming back when wanting Thai food in the downtown area. Great spot for lunch downtown.“

“Excited for the classic sampler!“

“My dad loved your restaurant. He came in just about every week. Thank you for hosting his memorial group. The way you and your staff took care of us was beyond compassionate. Thank you so much.“
