I've enjoyed coming here over the years! From coffee dates to study sessions to my first drink with…read morefriends on my 21st bday, I've had some great memories here! Some of their speciality lattes (like the Remember Me one fall) have been so delicious that I've braved the trek downtown, searching for a parking spot in the middle of my workday, just to get one as an afternoon pick-me-up. I also love the 1885 drink, which is Dr Pepper + espresso. It sounds crazy, but a Waco girl loves it. I will say, ever since the inside was re-painted as a weird, tentacle-esque, purple and orange mural, the ambiance has tanked. It used to feel like a peaceful, vibey spot, especially at night or during the holidays. Now the walls make my skin crawl a bit. Maybe some people love it--I usually hear the opposite But it's still worth going for the drinks!

I just want something to WAKE me up! Not all coffee is the same. If you're looking for a roast…read moretasting coffee you can find it here! I ordered the Boxing Day coffee with the cinnamon notes. I couldn't taste cinnamon so much til I was almost done. It's good coffee, but nothing special even with the descriptive notes for their drinks. It feels industrial inside. Nice bathrooms, spacious layout towards the back. Comfortable seatings and plenty of tables.

I've said this before, but cmon it's a Tuesday night, there's 2 guys working the front. One to not look in my purse but put his hangs in it and look!!!! Seriously??? You don't do that. And that ask me what's in my pockets ....I don't have pockets. 2 front door guys and there's maybe 20 people in here. They're always such a good at the door it makes me not wanna come here. Everyone else is awesome!!!

Red Herring was an excellent dining experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and…read moreinviting perfect for a date night, but also great for a group dinner or business meeting. The menu is simple, thoughtfully curated, and everything we ordered was executed beautifully. I had the steak, served over a bed of perfectly cooked bell peppers and onions. It was flavorful and cooked exactly right. My mom ordered the whole fish and cleaned her plate, which says it all. My son chose the handmade pasta, and it was outstanding. The meat to sauce ratio was spot on, and he finished every bite. We started with the Caesar salad, and it was honestly one of the best I've had. The unique nut mix added an unexpected crunch and took it to another level. We wrapped up the meal with the mousse dessert, and I highly recommend saving room for it. it was the perfect ending. Every plate at our table came back empty. Great food, excellent execution, and a wonderful atmosphere and service. We'll definitely be back.

We had a 6:45 reservation and we arrived an hour early to have a drink in the bar and the hostess told us that she would let us know if a table in the bar became available before our reservation time. I checked with her once because we noticed a few tables had been empty the entire hour we were there and she said that she still did not have anything available because they were reserved for reservations. No one ever showed up and she ended up seating us at one of the tables that had been empty the entire time and she seated us 10 minutes after our reservation time! The food was OK but the portion size for the price was not good. They were out of iced tea and potatoes by 7 o'clock. I ended up sending my gnocchi back because it was absolutely terrible. My husband ordered a martini and was charged 50 cents for an extra olive and, ironically, he only received one olive on the toothpick. The service was terrible and the bartender was very unfriendly, and we would never go back!

The reviews had me nervous before eating there so I really lowered my expectations before ordering the burger just so I wouldn't be too disappointed. After my first bite, I thought "hmm, that was better than I thought it would be." Service: The service was good. I didn't have any issues with the service. The waitress was attentive and helpful. The food arrived quickly after ordering. The establishment is dark inside so that would be one downfall.

If all goes as we think "fantastic" this place will be our go to brunch and dinner place in waco. Maybe just spend the night at the Indingo if all goes to well. Only reason we didn't give 5 stars is because we haven't tried everything we plan on !
