    Breakfast Sandwich
    Ashley C.

    I have been wanting to come here for years so you can imagine my excitement when I called to make reservations about a month in advance and they were able to fit our large party in! They have a designated parking lot making it super easy to visit here. They brought us to our table right away, which was this beautiful large family table set in its own alcove, so it felt very special and away from the main hustle and bustle of the restaurant. The vibe was like a modern upgraded diner. I had struggled deciding between going at brunch time or for the dinner menu, but I am super happy that we decided to do brunch because we got to enjoy the famous Jo's Buttermilk Biscuits with the flight of butters. All of the butter was great, but I especially loved the blackberry butter. The biscuits were so good though, that you didn't even need butter at all, they were just so light and fluffy. Not dry like your typical biscuit that you'd get at any other restaurant! For the main meal, I picked the crunchy French toast, which was perfectly crispy on the outside but nice and custardy on the inside. I love the use of the cornflake cereal on the outside, I don't think I can go back to any regular French toast after that! They have some seasonal drinks available, so make sure you ask your server. On our particular visit, we tried the 1905 latte which had a toasted marshmallow syrup inside and surprisingly was not too sweet despite being marshmallow. The restaurant is connected to the little merch area/market where you can buy a lot of of the Magnolia merch if you can't make it over to the Silos. The decor and feel inside is so beautiful, as expected if you're familiar with Joanna's work! What a treat to be able to visit here and may they last for a long time!

    Eggs Benedict

    First time ever here after wanting to come here for years! We were impressed! We loved the attached coffee bar. We arrived about 20 mins before our reservation at 11am. We were able to get a coffee and sit on the patio for a few mins before we were called for our table. William M was great. So very friendly and welcoming. Answered all of our questions since we were newbies. The coffee bar gift shop area is so cute. So many cute items like tea towels, magnets, cookbooks, coffee syrups, jams, etc. Our waitress, Dexi, wasn't overly friendly. It was busy and she seemed to be a little overwhelmed maybe? Now for the food. Get the biscuit flight! Seriously to die for! The biscuits were super fluffy, soft, warm, buttery and a tad salty. Seriously perfect! The butters - honey, blackberry, raspberry, and herb were phenomenal. The honey was our favorite, but they were all delicious. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich and my husband ordered the eggs Benedict. We both thought our food was missing something; probably salt. It wasn't bad, just lacked a little flavor. I kind of wish I would have ordered the pancakes or French toast, but the chicken salad sounded too good to pass up at the time. I also got the peach mint tea and it was super refreshing, the perfect amount of sweetness. We had a great visit here. If we are ever in Texas again, we will absolutely stop by.

    Magnolia's Table is a must try when in Waco. I've been twice with family and we all enjoyed the decor, clean environment, the service was wonderful and the butter biscuit flight is definitely worth ordering every time. The homemade butter comes in different flavors, cinnamon/sweet, a berry butter, a honey butter and a savory butter. The biscuits melt along with the butter in every bite. This is a unique take on a flight/bread board and it isn't found anywhere else. Spacious beautiful indoor restaurants with a covered very nice outdoor patio. This restaurant is huge and although it is very busy you can find seats but I recommend calling ahead for wait time and trying to reserve in advance.

    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.

    I like the size of these cups.

    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.

    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!

    Our first time here. The lady at Magnolia square recommended it to us. It as cute little restaurant with a farmhouse feel. Our waiter was great. He was very attentive and recommended some dishes for us. I ordered the Rigatoni and my husband ordered the Burger. We also ordered a side of Brussels. My Rigatoni was great, was very filling and I could barely finish it. The Brussels was exceptional. I would come here just for that. It was cooked perfectly and the flavor was great. My husband said his burger was a bit dry but other than that, he said it was okay. Would definitely try it again, maybe their breakfast next time.

    Crunchy French toast
    John C.

    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.

    Each time we're in Waco for a couple of days, we must visit Magnolia Table! We went around 1230P on a Saturday and the wait was 45 minutes, but it only took 15 minutes for a table to be ready. Everything we ordered was consistently as fresh as every other time we've dined there. The space is bright and always clean and the waitstaff is very hospitable. I love all of the different textures throughout. Overall 10/10 and we will continue to go again and again!!!

    Magnolia Table Review We had a wonderful breakfast at Magnolia Table. We started with the Our Bacon & Eggs appetizer, which was a delightful surprise. The deviled eggs paired exceptionally well with the sweet jam and candied bacon, creating a delicious combination of flavors. For breakfast, we enjoyed the French Toast and the Avocado Toast with a perfectly poached egg, along with a side of breakfast potatoes. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The jam and candied bacon were definitely a standout and made the appetizer especially memorable. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and would happily return. I would definitely recommend Magnolia Table to anyone looking for a delicious and enjoyable breakfast experience.

    "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.

    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!

    Burger and Fries
    Roman G.

    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

    A beautiful spot for a special family party.

    I was by myself and total time spent there from being seated, ordering, receiving the food, eating, and paying was about 45 minutes.

    What time does the line start when they open? On a Saturday?

    I was there at 6:45 last Thursday morning and I was 8th in line. Saturday we went by around 9 am and it was an hour wait so we got the the same food from the carry out side.

    Reserve for lunch11:30am or noon?

    You have to make reservations online. If none available then you can just show up and wait. We arrived at 7:40 am (Monday morning) & waited until 9:45 until we were seated. Hope this helps.

    A great pit stop en route to Dallas…read more Came in hungry and left very happy. I got the daily quiche with fruit and was honestly shocked by how much fruit they give you. It came with this amazing poppyseed dip that made it even better. We also ordered the cheese poppers with jalapeño ranch and definitely underestimated them. They were crispy, curdy, and super addictive. The chicken fried steak was another win. Hand-breaded, flavorful, and covered in their homemade gravy. Straight-up comfort food. Dessert is a must. We got the banana pudding meringue and absolutely demolished it. It's said to be one of the owner's mother's recipes. The atmosphere has a clean 1950s vibe with retro decor and vintage car parts everywhere, which was pretty fun and different. Our server, Cindy, was super friendly and gave great recommendations. Overall, really solid experience. Would definitely come back.

The retro themed eatery with gas themed memorabilia is an eye pleaser. The meals are served in old hubcaps, just to keep you submerged in that classic ol' timeliness. Regular burger was delicious with a side car of their fried okra. Kids meals are a wow factor as they use those 3D cardboard replica boxes of cars. Ours now drives around Barbie dolls! Their hours can be a bit inconvenient if you don't plan accordingly to eat here (open 11AM-2PM). Don't let that stop you for adding them to your Waco vacation plans!
