Amazing timing led us to Magnolia Table when they opened for dinner at 4 pm! We ordered the burrata and focaccia that tasted as if it came fresh from the oven somewhere in Italy. Served with a perfect burrata with green pesto that was most divine- fresh as can be. Mocktails are always my choice and there's a blackberry mocktail made fresh intensely flavored berries that's a wow. So being from Oklahoma my favorite meal is fried chicken and mashed potatoes. We split a plate and we were not sorry. The perfect little chicken gravy pitcher- piping hot- w a generous helping of sauce served two easily. For desert there's an extensive selection ( including strawberry shortcake) but we opted for just plain latte made impeccably. Congratulations. You've really made America's best restaurant imo! We loved it. Coming from NYC we are spoiled for great food. But you have a 5 star accomplishment in this place. Perfectly wonderful. A million thanks-- what a memorable meal! read more

This was one of the worse dining experiences in awhile. I've been wanting to try this restaurant for a while and I got the chance on Thursday June 11th. Our server was ok it really was the food that left a bad taste for me. I started with the signature cocktail a lavender lemon drop Martini only to have the server tell me they don't have all the ingredients to make one of their signature seasonal cocktail drinks. Appetizers we had the burrata which was probably the best thing I ate. My guest ordered the Bavette steak frites with Mac n cheese and I ordered the crispy chicken plate. Their fryer went down and we're not able to make the crispy chicken plate so I settled for their burger. My guest received her steak first and tried cutting into it. It was dry, rubbery and chewy. I had to wait 10 minutes for my burger to show up and when I received it the burger was dry overly salty and hard to eat. My fries were also overly seasoned and hard to enjoy. Definitely one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a while. On top of that they locked the gift shop door so you had to walk around to the front entrance if you were shopping in the gift shop. Service is a 3, food is 1 and experience a 1. 1 star read more

If you're visiting Waco, Magnolia Table is definitely worth a stop. The highlight for me was the chicken biscuits with honey butter--absolutely amazing. Honestly, I could have eaten nothing but those and been completely happy. They had a variety of drink specials to include non alcoholic. The service was friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which made the experience even better. The only drawback is the parking situation. I highly recommend making a reservation and, if possible, visiting during the week to avoid the biggest crowds. read more

"Where everyone has a seat at the table" is their slogan however if you do not have a reservation, you do not have a seat at the table. They sit you on high chairs like little children and you're facing a wall with absolutely no entertainment and no visualization of anything exciting that is happening within the restaurant. The food was otherwise pretty decent, my big burger was cooked more than me walking through the Sahara. The farmer's breakfast was good (but it's difficult to mess up eggs, bacon, and potatoes). I'd come here again, possibly. read more

Great breakfast stop. Quick and friendly service. Food came out really really fast. And with that it was a little cold. But it was very tasty. To start I had the strawberry margarita to celebrate my day off of work. It was very tasty and just the right amount of strawberry flavor. Refreshing. Since I was dining solo I didn't get any appz. I got the farm eggs Benedict and like I said the flavors were all good but wish it was as a little warmer. But it was a great portion. I ate it all! This was my first dinning experience here. There are lots of tables and the atmosphere is open and welcoming. After my meal I went to the take away area and got the lemon lavender donut holes to take home to the husband. And I grabbed a chai latte with oatmilk to keep me going for my warrants of the day. The drink was comforting and warm and the chai was perfect. Later I tried the donut holes. And oh wow they were amazing! read more

Like the Silos at Magnolia, the brand is somewhere between "minimalist hipster industrial farmer", and this is the only Texas Historic Landmark that sells pimento grilled cheese. It's a landmark because the Spanish Colonial building, once home to the Elite Cafe, was the first in Waco to have air conditioning and Elvis was a regular when he was stationed at Ft. Hood, as depicted in the mural. Other than the mural, there's not much to see other than an unimpressive selection of grab-and-go items and some knick-knacks. I found some that looked like boobies. I guess they are knick-knockers. read more

Finally had the chance to try this spot and we weren't disappointed. A reservation is a must; even during heavy rain, the crowd still gathered as expected. It's definitely a busy joint, not a chill, relaxed brunch spot. However the staff was prepared and service was super fast. It was impressive that our entire order was ready in less than 10 minutes. We loved our meal. The crunch French toast was fantastic, the flakes were a nice touch that stood out. The breakfast sandwich was fulfilling, I liked that the croissant was firm and flaky. Overall a solid spot. We'd come back if we're visiting Magnolia. read more

Depending on the time of day, day of the week you visit, expect lines and long wait times, especially on Saturday. It's worth the wait because it's an experience. The decor is light, spacious, modern meets rustic meets boho. The food is everything you want in an elevated diner-style restaurant. Let me just tell you my boyfriend goes kooky for the deviled eggs. No joke. He also loves the pimento grilled cheese and their biscuits. I really dig the lemon poppy pancakes. The citrus mint salad is the bees knees. They do a super decent Bloody Mary as well as a fantastic blackberry mocktail. read more

Food was delicious! Huge fan of Joanna and Chip so it was cool to get to taste the food from her restaurant and the interior she designed. The biscuits were amazing and something I loved and want to get more of. I got the Southern Style Benedict and it was absolutely delicious and something I'd get again. I heard it is seasonal so definitely come get try it before it goes away! The French toast was light and fluffy and tasty in every bite! Experience was great and the servers were sweet! Everything was amazing! read more

My family had brunch here this past weekend. The location is a bit sketchy has nothing nice in the immediate surrounding area. We visited the rest of the Magnolia Farm plaza later and it's much nicer. The building itself is super cute and really we done from a renovation standpoint. It was a bit noisy inside but for a casual, brunch setting, I was okay with it. The service was very good. We had: Biscuits w/ 4 butter samplers (4.5/5) - The biscuits were delicious. We unanimously liked the same 2 butters (the regular and berry). The other two (cinnamon and one other berry one), we thought were too strongly flavored. Slider Sampler (2.5/5) - For me, this was a miss. A total salt bomb. I ate 2 of the 3 but could not eat the last one. The two I ate were both super salty, and given the overriding saltiness, I could not tell much flavor difference between the two. Side of Seasoned Fries (3.5/5) - Not as bad as the sliders, but these were very salty as well. Probably worth visiting once as a tourist, I would probably not go back for just the food. read more

My husband and I were in Austin for a weekend in December so we drove to Waco for the day and ate here for my birthday lunch! We were placed on the waitlist and waited only 10-15 minutes before being seated. We ordered the Iced Cranberry Green Tea, Jo's Buttermilk Biscuit, Basket of House Fries, Taco Breakfast, Side of Thick-Cut Bacon, and the Slider Flight. Food heaven - we loved everything we ordered and our leftovers still tasted great for dinner. Whatever aioli came with the fries was delicious! I wish I remembered our server's name because he was so attentive and made our experience here so great! read more

I'm updating my review since the last time we've been here. Magnolia Table is still my favorite restaurant to visit whenever we're in Waco. The staff are always friendly and the food here is amazing!! We came back last Friday to celebrate my birthday. I was so happy to find out that they now take reservations using the Open Table app. It was super easy to use and I booked my reservation a few weeks prior to getting into Waco. We were greeted by the friendly hostess who seated us promptly since we had reservations. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the breakfast sandwich and my husband ordered the farm breakfast. We ordered the kids breakfast for our 3 year old which came with pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon. We also ordered a side of biscuits with strawberry jam. We got our food hot and made fresh to order. The croissant sandwich was filling and delicious. The croissant was super fluffy and light. Everything was perfect!!! Our son told us that he loved his pancakes. Our waiter came by frequently to check on us and make sure everything was made to our liking. 10/10 recommend for their high quality service and food. We will be sure to continue to keep coming back again and again whenever we're in Waco. read more

Our visit on Juneteenth was fabulous. We weren't able to make a reservation but were able to get seated in 20 min after being told it might be an hour wait. We started with the delicious deviled eggs and were surprised to get several full strips of juicy candy bacon, yum!! I fully enjoyed the Farm Breakfast since the strawberry butter on my biscuit was to die for! The eggs and bacon were delicious as well, and I skipped the potatoes (a bit dry). My daughter loved the tomato soup with her Mordello sandwich saying the pistachio pesto had a wonderful flavor. Definitely worth the stop on our way through Waco! read more

This was my 2nd visit here as we were on a roadtrip. Started with the Lavender Lemon donut holes. They were delicious. If you're a lavender lemon fan, You must try. I then opted for the Kind Breakfast, Greens were fresh and PLENTIFUL with the perfect amount of vinaigrette. Scrambled eggs were cooked well, the avocado slices were perfectly ripe, as was the huge slices of heirloom tomatoes. I added 2 slices of bacon.. I do wish they offered Turkey sausage. My husband had the biscuits- best he has ever had, roasted potatoes- not greasy and scrambled eggs and bacon. He thought the restaurant would be just a lot of hype because of who owns it, but was really impressed with the food. Will definitely return. I do recommend reservations. read more

It's such a cool experience to dine here, being a girlie who has Joanna's cook books and loves to cook myself. To be able to try many of her recipes directly out of her books first hand was so much fun! We made a reservation for Saturday brunch and we were glad we did, the wait times seemed pretty long. We were seated within minutes with a reservation. The menu was pretty typical for brunch with good lunch and breakfast options. For the table to share we ordered the biscuit flight, which were the best biscuits I've ever had, it's a must on the menu. We also ordered to share the slider flight, fries, and a farm breakfast. The sliders are huge and very shareable if cut in half. The farm breakfast came with so many potatoes, also a good portion for sharing. read more

We absolutely LOVE Magnolia Table--if I could give it more than five stars, I would! Everything about this place is wonderful. The restaurant is bright and welcoming, and the staff is incredibly kind. They truly go above and beyond--we had an infant with us, and they were so accommodating, even making sure we had a high chair when it wasn't expected. Be sure to get a reservation if you can; on busy days the wait can easily be two hours, but it's 100% worth it. The food is amazing--my tacos were perfect, and the potatoes were full of flavor. And whatever you do, don't leave without trying a signature lavender latte--it's absolutely delicious! Magnolia Table is always a must-stop for us whenever we're in town. It never disappoints! read more

I now know why it's recommended that you make reservations to eat here. It's a popular place for good reason. Everything, the service, the ambience, and especially the food, was exceptional. French toast: crusty on the outside soft on the inside. Kind breakfast: So tasty and healthy of a breakfast. I don't see how they can make much money with this dish since it was loaded with expensive Heirloom tomatoes, avocado and other prime ingredients. Finished by a perfectly prepared Latte. read more

I wonder if they can make the sandwich with a different bread. The burger and grilled cheese were pretty good too.

Had a great breakfast, we grabbed a reservation and were seated immediately. The check in and host staff were wonderfully friendly. It was a full house and even though there were vaulted ceilings the sound levels were such that we could chat easily. Our server Elaine was phenomenal, she absolutely made our experience. We tried the biscuit flight, loving both the biscuits and the flavored butters. For breakfast we ordered the tacos and the farm breakfast. The food quality was fresh, salsa tasty, everything was well prepared. We finished everything!! Our table was closed to the window into the bakery...we had to walk through before we left. It smelled divine and had wonderful little souvenirs and kitchen basics. read more

So very close to a 5 star review--but our waitress was TERRIBLE! Thank goodness the food and atmosphere were perfection!! Had 7 pm reservations, and got there 45 minutes early. We waited patiently on the nice patio area and for about 10 minutes and they graciously seated us! Wish the store had been open but they close early on the weekends! Our server was very nice; however hospitality services are not her strong suit. She was slow, inefficient, flighty, and had to be reminded about my husband's drink order that was sitting on the bar for several minutes. The cherry margarita even after sitting was amazing! Not too sweet with a great flavor! The restaurant was impeccably clean!! The food was perfection!! The pigs in a blanket were delightful and I loved the spicy honey mustard!! The bisque was delightful and rich. The macaroni and cheese were the BEST we have had and we love some Mac and cheese!! The wedge salad was WOW!! Crispy bacon, rich ranch, and beautiful tomatoes! The salmon was good and the orzo was excellent! Don't skip dessert! Try that banana pudding!! It tastes fresh and homemade! Spent about $100 on the 3 of us and worth every single penny! read more

Originally I had wanted to go to Magnolia Table during their breakfast/lunch time but our schedule didn't work with that so dinner it was. What a mistake that was.. We were quickly seated for our 4:30 reservation- which the location had very few guests when we arrived. I'm not sure how but our waitress was less than friendly compared to other servers near us. She brought out water then said she'd be right back. We originally were going to order the fried onion stack and the mini biscuits but she said Oh you made a bad choice, we currently don't have the fried onion stack because of something with their fryers not working with the batter? So no fried onion stack, no friend chicken, no fried Brussel sprouts and no kids chicken tenders. So that was confusing- any restaurant we've been to that is out of something or can't serve it would've told us right away while we are looking at the already limited menu. Let's get to the actual taste of the food - my husband and I both ordered the steak frites. I ordered mine medium rare- which check the pictures the center was more on the medium well side. They were skirt steaks so being more done wasn't too big of an issue and overall it tasted good. My son ordered the burger which honestly looked fresher and better than our steaks. It was a little weird that our steaks came out within 5 minutes and the burger within 8-10 min. I wonder about the freshness of everything. Our waitress really never checked on us after the initial order other than to see if we wanted a dessert menu. Literally runners came out with the biscuits and the meals. The server waiting on the table next to us talked to his table and engaged with them which was more than ours did. I will I noticed he didn't tell the table either about things being out until they tried to order Brussel sprouts- again such an odd thing not to mention in beforehand. I will say it was very pretty inside and aesthetically pleasing- which isn't a surprise. Overall, I think we should've skipped dinner and gone to breakfast/lunch. It's a one and done for us. read more

Some say this place is overrated but I strongly disagree. The menu has something for everyone and the food is flavorful! I HIGHLY recommend starting off with the biscuits and butter flight for the table and someone at your table order the fries with fry sauce. The service was a bit rushed but I understand that comes with a crowded restaurant that has customers in and out all day. I would also not that it's 60% breakfast and 40% lunch. This is such a cute spot to experience and we would definetly come back next time we are in town! read more

My husband and I spend the day in Waco on our way home and had to stop by Magnolia Table. We've visited in the past for breakfast but this was the first time we had dinner here and it did not disappoint! We weren't super hungry so we split the steak frites and a shareable order of the mac and cheese! The steak was delicious and cooked great but the fries were 10/10! They were perfectly seasoned and crispy! The mac and cheese was creamy and delicious with the bread crumbs baked on top. The star of the show was definitely the banana pudding we had for dessert! We actually ended up taking home the left over pudding and eating it as a midnight sweet treat! This place is always the cutest with the perfect decor! I feel like i leave this place with new ideas on how to decorate the house! This spot is definitely a MUST visit when in Waco or driving through! Service was 10/10! read more

It took 3 tries to finally get into the Magnolia Table. I had visited Waco 2 prior times and the wait was over 2 hours. This visit we were able to make a reservation and got in easily. It was as cute as I imagined. Our servers were Eric & Mark. Mark was in training, but did a great job. Eric checked in on us frequently to be sure. We started off with Pastry Basket that included zucchini bread, chocolate croissant, butter croissant, pistachio scone & Prize Pig. The Prize Pig was a biscuit with cheese & bacon and tasted so good with a dippy egg. We ordered the Farm Breakfast with Bacon, 2 eggs, Crispy Potatoes & sourdough toast (my sister had the biscuit instead of toast). It was all very delicious and was definitely worth the wait to finally try Magnolia Table. I would say the place itself, while adorable in design, seems a little run-down. The leather benches were worn, the white wood areas could use a good cleaning and just a general update. That's the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. read more

First time in Waco, first time at Magnolia Table. The biscuits were the best biscuits I have ever had, as was the gravy and strawberry better. Both of those must be a staple when visiting Magnolia Table. We also got the lavender lemon donut holes which were also super yummy. For our mains, I did get the chicken Caesar wrap which was tasty, although the wrap was a little dry. I do wish I ordered something else. My friend got the breakfast sandwich with the breakfast potatoes which he said it was all pretty good. The restaurant itself was a pretty big place and does give them ambiance of a farm house. I definitely look forward into coming back and trying something else! read more

Just left this place. 2 stars is putting it kindly. We came and waited 8 mins in an empty restaurant before anyone came to offer drinks. Ok no big deal. Ordered breakfast farmers plates and I kid you not it took less than 3 mins to get our plate it took me longer to wash my hands. So I was not surprised when the potatoes were cold and hard, the bacon and sausage were cold...the only thing warm was the eggs. Seriously wonder if they were floating in water because of the amount of water that came out when I cut the egg. Ate what I could because i take meds and need to eat. I imagine the rest was cooked hours ago likely when I was in bed sleeping. The coffee was burnt terrible taste of bitter. The sausage and bacon although cold was good. It was a one and done for us. Tourist trap with a $65 tab. read more

I have been here three times now and have not been impressed once. Most recently we came for the new lunch hours and I had the burger. I requested to be cooked medium but it came out well done, and I found it to be quite bland. I also asked for side of the pepper jelly which is a bright spot for me here, and it came with a surprisingly large piece of plastic. This was immediately reported and I was given a new sauce, but still I was very disappointed. We also had a chicken salad that was bland and needed more dressing as well as a pimento grilled cheese which was much better than the latter two. The consistent inconsistency and the high prices has led to me no planning on returning here any time soon. The Waco food scene is far too good to spend time waiting hours here. read more

Highly suggest reservations as the restaurant was very busy. We had reservations and were seated within a 10 minute time frame. Although the menu is limited-- The food was very good: fresh and flavorful. They also offer cocktails and other drinks. A portion of the menu items are from Joanna's cookbooks. The decor is in the iconic Joanna Gaines farmhouse style. An issue I had with the restaurant is the noise level. It is very loud (and I do mean loud). I realize the restaurant is trying to mimic an atmosphere of a diner, however the pricing structure is definitely higher than a traditional diner and a little less racket would be nice. The service was OK. Bottom line - glad we could stop. read more

Loved the experience! Definitely get a reservation because it gets packed. Loved the aesthetic and the ambiance! All the magnolia vibes. The food was so good! I didn't expect much because sometimes branded places can be mediocre. However, everything was perfect! The egg Benedict with their biscuit was truly amazing, and their hollandaise sauce balanced everything out well. The burger patty was thick and the bacon jam was glorious! Even the salad was good! The only downside was the chicken on the salad was a bit dry. 10/10, def would visit again. read more

Magnolia Market at the Silos has such a great atmosphere. I absolutely loved the overall vibe and how kind and welcoming the staff were. The food was pretty good, and I'd rate it about a 4 out of 5.

We really enjoyed our visit and I would definitely go again. I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time because it gets busy fast.
