    This is all the soup that was in the cup
    Bobbi M.

    Low quality customer care. I ordered a large gumbo--- when they handed the soup to me, I questioned that is was small, they assured me it was their LG. it was maybe 2 cups the most for a large gumbo soup. I came home opened it to find it less then half filled, I got less then a cup of soup. I paid $17. plus tip. 20$. Then when I called to let them know that they didn't fill my cup up, they assured me that that was the accurate amount of soup. I asked them for the name of their higher up, They hung the phone up on me, refused to acknowledge this problem. The restaurant was in disarray as will.

    I loved this place. It was my first time trying seafood bake and this place delivered. Now I'm in NYC looking for places to have this food again. The menu was easy to maneuver, we didn't wait too long but I had my margarita to sip on so I was good. Wish the drink had a bit more alcohol, I felt cheated there. If I came back to Waco I would definitely return here.

    LOVE to pay with QR!!!

    Let me start with the positive. We had, The Pew Pew, chargrilled Oysters & lobster Bisque....WOW I wasn't really expecting it to be so good, I mean it's Waco?! But the food was amazing 6 star!!! Now the not so good...Dear Owner, The doors should open at 11 not 11:04. I even called at 11:02 because doors were still locked - but no one answered! Next, the food came out sporadically. I would have expected the soup first, but the Oyster came first, then the Pew pew then soup. (Check your camera we sat at bar.) Next, I ran out of water, watched the server walk right past me got a water thought it was for me or the table behind us, but no, it was for herself where she return back to her spot at the end of the bar on her phone. The first time we were asked if we needed anything else was we were nearly done. I don't want to get pestered but certainly more than at the end of the meal. A wet napkin would be a great addition when eating The Pew Pew! The towelettes are not enough. Next is the music. All Latin...mix it up? We will definitely be back. The food makes up for A LOT!!!! This place has tremendous potential get the service elevated - and it will get great reviews!!!

    Food Review: I ordered the fried catfish + sweet potato fries. Admitted this is probably the worst catfish I've ever eaten. Where is the salt? In both items. And I swear I pulled out a parasite from inside the fish. Served with no dipping sauce.

    whats left of the knife, uzi, and garlic noodles

    First time here and it was super yummy! We usually travel out of town for our seafood boils but Killer Crab hit the spot. My sister had the knife with medium spiciness and she said it was not too spicy, I had the Uzi with mild spiciness and was very buttey, garlicy, with a whisper of spice (which I loved). Our waitress, LaToya was SUPER hospitable & patient with us, 10/10 customer service! The ambience was great! The playlist was soo good we had to ask for it. I like how spaced out the tables are and bonus points that they provided gloves and bibs! planning on bringing our parents and friends back here soon

    Yesterday I had the opportunity to experience brunch at Opal's Oyster Bar and everything was…read morebeautifully done. The setup and atmosphere looked like something straight out of a magazine. The crab cake Benedict was amazing, the wedge salad was fresh and delicious, and the shrimp from the seawall was full of flavor. And of course, the lobster mac and cheese was absolutely yummy. Great food, beautiful presentation, and an overall wonderful experience.

    Unfortunately, Opal's is one of the most poorly run restaurants I've experienced in a long time. We…read moremade reservations months in advance, and they still managed to completely botch it by giving away and relocating our table to accommodate someone else. Apparently reservations here are meaningless. What really took it to another level was watching the staff actually ask the people sitting at the table they stole from us to move. It was unbelievably awkward, unprofessional, and honestly pathetic to watch unfold in real time. Total chaos. I stayed polite the entire time -- holding doors for guests and staff, trying to be understanding -- and then a waiter carrying dirty dishes tried sneaking through behind me when I let the door go and absolutely ate it. Glass shattered everywhere, drinks spilled all over the place, and instead of acting professionally or apologizing, the staff just stood there looking confused. No ownership. No urgency. No class. The whole place feels like it's being run by people completely in over their heads. Disorganized management, clueless staff, zero communication, and customer service that borders on nonexistent. For a place trying to present itself as upscale, the operation felt amateur hour from start to finish. Honestly, if this is how they handle guests who planned ahead for months, I'd hate to see how they handle a busy night. Save yourself the frustration, the wasted time, and the secondhand embarrassment. Good luck staying open, Opal's. With management and service like this, you're going to need a miracle. PS...Bring your bug spray if you don't want extra protein with dinner.
