We had a wonderful experience at John’s Place in Waxahachie, TX. We celebrated a 60th wedding anniversary enjoying amazing food, drinks and service. Chef John made time to meet with us and share menu favorites. Our server, Court, was amazing. We met Jen, aka Mixy, who made a delicious clover club mocktail. The best Italian food in Waxahachie!
This place is a perfect blend of elegant and comfortable. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food was delicious. The owner came and greeted/checked-in on every table and was personable and friendly. Truly a place you could find yourself in week after week and never get tired of. I would absolutely recommend checking it out!
We were just passing through from Austin and stopped here for dinner. The food was fresh and tasted delicious! The waiter gave great service and even Chef John came out to sat hello. We will stop by again soon and we have already told many family members between Austin and Dallas how we found a special gem in Waxahachie!
