We were seated by the back when this was taken. The ambience is wonderful! Great place for meetings for team bonding or to treat clients. The server was fantastic!! For the coffee - we got a cappuccino and a mocha breve. Excellent!! For food we got the grit bowls with protein and toppings. Everything is so fresh. The music is not loud and obnoxious. The seating is comfortable. Please come and try this hidden breakfast place! They also do lunch as well read more

This place is sooooo cute! Right away, I knew that this place doubled as a venue. The space is perfect for it! I ordered a hot chai and I was SO glad I did! It was very yummy. I also was glad I added cinnamon to it. To eat, I ordered the mac & cheese, but unfortunately, I wasn't too impressed with it. It was way too cheesy and pretty plain. It might just be me though because I usually spice up my mac & cheese. Our server was really great and super nice, especially because we came towards the end of the night. Overall, I definitely think I'd visit this place again to try something else and to have that Chai again! read more

Came here for our first time for dinner and got a dish that I didn't end up thinking was good (the Thai curry), there wasn't enough curry or vegetables, it felt like just rice. My boyfriend got the Lisa's pasta which was delicious. Nonetheless the server was super understanding (I felt very bad sending something back since I rarely do that!) and she assisted me in getting something else to replace it! I appreciated how helpful she was and that she wanted to make sure I left with a good meal. The place was overall very nice and well run. read more

Great food and service poptart was best thing I've ever eaten! Great brunch spot! The salmon was mid but I should've ordered steak omelet instead! read more

Unfortunately we didn't have a great experience at JDs and we were so excited to go! We loved that they said seed oil free so we're excited to try their food! Our service was not great. It took a long time for our waitress to get our drinks and our order. When they brought our food, two out of the three dishes were wrong and missing ingredients. I got the burger which was the only dish made correctly and it was tasty! They offered us a free dessert to make up for the mistakes but in my mind it just didn't cover it. The food was tasty that I had but my friends weren't super impressed with theirs. read more

Great location. Casual comfortable atmosphere. Good menu selection. The service was good too. Overall a great place to stop in for a quality meal in a comfortable setting. Will definitely eat here again read more

Great service, food and ambiance. Went in with my mom and boyfriend and we had the Thai chili meatballs and poblano bisque as an appetizer, and streak and frites, Dan Dan noodles, balsamic chicken for entrees. Everything was amazing, we couldn't rave about it enough amongst eachother. Service was excellent. Will be back next time we visit! read more

My husband just picked up a to go order for me--the Dan Dan noodles and it's inedible. The entire thing tastes like a whole salt shaker was dumped on it. And that's after he had to go to counter 30 mins later and ask if it was ready after being told they would bring it out to him when it was. Service and food both are terrible. This is the second time we've been and it just keep getting worse and worse. Would rather not risk wasting another $15-17 on a meal to give it a third try. So no seed oils but they'll kill ya with the sodium content. Super disappointed. First time we went was breakfast last Saturday and the guy working counter didn't even greet us and wouldn't have said a word to us otherwise. No thanks. read more

First visit was a bit disappointing. I had the lunch Caesar salad with salmon. The description says it was to come with "elevated" croutons, but, there were none. And when I asked about it, I was told, they probably ran out. Croutons are inexpensive, you should never run out. And, sadly, the salmon was over done. The waitress was did a nice job taking care of us. She did offer a discount for my part of our lunch. The space itself has a nice ambience, but it is a little expansive. My husband thought they should somehow scale it down maybe with a few more booths. read more

Enthusiastic thumbs up. Coffee Spot meets girlie lunch meets grab and go. Nutritious, eye-grabbing, soul satisfying fare. A new go-to for a girlfriend lunch, coffee, dessert. Also a spot that I can and will use to grab dinner to go for my honey and me. Cooked fresh daily. All served with a smile. Professional and friendly. Spotless. Lovely decor with loads of inviting natural lighting with a variety of seating. Strawberry cake frosting a bit on the sweet powdered sugar end for us but great crumb. read more

Staff was very nice and provided great service. The fried pickles were out of this world. I really liked them. The Dan Dan noodles were very good. Very spicy. Seving sizes were huge. There were more than enough left overs for lunch tomorrow! read more

The food here is amazing. The service is great. The atmosphere is calming and pleasant. We had the Chicken poblano soup and truffle fries. It was all fantastic. read more

Food was good but overpriced. Service was very slow and uncaring. The venue is nice and clean.

Had a great brunch at JD's. The inside is open, airy, and nicely decorated. There was plenty of seating. You order first and seat yourself. I ordered an omelette with steak and vegetables along with fruit. The omelette was delicious. My egg wasn't brown or over cooked which often happens when ordering omelettes out. The steak was well seasoned. It came well done however I should have specified I didn't want well done steak. The fruit and fresh. The sour dough toast was okay and they were out of jelly which probably would have made it better. The employees were friendly. Overall I would certainly recommend and will return to try lunch. read more

Had a fabulous lunch with friendly service in this super clean and inviting new restaurant. We can't wait to come back with our friends & family. Also we highly recommend the poblano chicken soup, we would drive across town just for that on a cold day read more

Service was awkward didn't seem like they knew what they were doing. Food was also not very good. The ambiance was nice and clean.

We utilized JD's for our company retreat at a small-town ranch outside of Waco. They were WONDERFUL to work with and thought of every little detail we may need covered. They made the entire process easy and turnkey. read more

This is my favorite dinner burger in Waco - the bacon is perfect and crisp. The staff is always so kind and welcoming too.

Super friendly service! And delicious fresh food in a very welcoming atmosphere. I can't wait to try everything on the menu.

Food was unique and tasty and the service was attentive, engaging and VERY friendly. A complete score! They want to make everything tasty and right, so if it isn't, they will fix it. Our waitress Karen was fun and funny, warm and inviting. We felt special, not just a couple sitting down for lunch. We will be back to try more drinks (the Nashville Tea is worth the trip) and more menu items that look yummy:) read more

Great place! Food and service are exceptional. Recommend the chicken poblano bisque. Love the desserts too. They have a grab n go section also. read more

My husband and I visited for lunch and everything was wonderful! The staff was great and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

we used JD's to cater our event and it was amazing! Everyone loved the food provided and gave many compliments.

My wife had a friend that tried this place and told her it was great. Had lunch there and it was great. I had steak frites and fries with Béarnaise Sauce and my wife had Birria tacos. Both were amazing. My dish was slow coming out so they gave us a Charcuterie plate, delicious. We had dessert, one a gluten free chocolate cake that was incredible and a strawberry cake as well, just wow. This place is now on our list to frequently visit. Highly recommended! read more

While in Waco recently our trial team used JD's Catering and will definitely be using them again on our next Waco trial. JD's Catering served us wide variety of delicious food for lunches and dinner for a little over a week never disappointing and always accommodating. Attorneys can be a picky bunch but JD's Catering never balked. From Gluten Free to Vegan they do it all! Thank you JD's Catering! See you again soon! read more

A pleasure to work with - food is delicious! We used them this past weekend and I couldn't be happier. They delivered on every level, their entire crew was amazing and the food - I just wish I could have sampled any and all of the things they create. You will not be disappointed! And no, I am not related to them, but would swoop them up into our family in a heartbeat! read more
