    Burning Bush
    Derek S.

    The service is very prompt and nice. It's a clean place with a modern ambiance. It can be loud on a Friday afternoon but it's expected given the size. The food, I get why some people love it. Local to table and made fresh. For me, it's wasn't worth the price for the quality I received. I respect the prices for the fact it's local sourced stuff in texas but the burning bush came out overcooked and mushy and the sandwich bread was so dry it really took away from the overall experience. I personally won't be back, but if this place is your thing, give it a try.

    My fiancé and I were in Waco and stopped by Revival! What a cool concept! We loved all the menu names and our sandwiches were delicious as well! You don't have a dedicated server but rather they all kind of help everyone and it worked very well! I would recommend and come back next time I'm in town!

    The Eve Salad with Chicken
    Heather H.

    Driving through our way home to The Colony,TX and found this place on yelp. I see why they have great reviews!! The service was fantastic! Lots of friendly smiling faces. The food was amazing! The Eve salad was fresh and the flavor combination was amazing! My husband had a chicken sandwich on the rosemary sourdough bread which was also fantastic! The place was very clean and one thing we noticed was every employee was constantly washing their hands. The owner was also great and super friendly. We will definitely be back when we travel out this way!

    The 8th Day Sandwich

    Good sandwich and perfect sweet potato fries. I haven't had sweet potato fries this good in a while. They added a perfect amount of salt. It tastes good without giving you a heart attack. The sandwich is tasty and all the fillings taste fresh. Our server is very sweet and attentive.

    Amazing experience! Helpful communal waitstaff and everything was delicious and fresh. My favorite part was the puns of church things for the food items since it is located in a building that used to be a church. I told everyone I know! Hilarious.

    Excellent staff service! Plus, all items I've eaten so far are well-thought out. Arrive early for lunch rush, as it packs quickly.

The vibe is very laid back and chill. The food was really good, we had a couple kids meals (cheeseburgers), a BYOB and I got the Gosh Jam It Burger and added Fried Onions, Bacon and Chipotle Sauce. The burger was yummy and the flavors blended well! We also enjoyed an order of fried pickles at the table along with samples of their free flavored pickles not pictured. All in all we enjoyed ourselves, the crowd was lively and the kids said this is their new favorite burger place so we will be back again!

I ordered the fried pickles and I thought they would come out as an appetizer, but they were put next to the burger as a side so I was disappointed in that. The fried pickles were way too thick for my liking although they were breaded well. What's neat about this place is the variety of different flavored pickles that they have in the corner for you to eat. I really did like that!! There's a bar in the center of the floor and although I didn't get anything from the bar, I did like the setup. The burger itself was okay. Not spectacular, but not the worst. Would I eat here again? I think I would.

Today on the drive back and as I approach Waco I thought I'm gonna find a great smash burger....and oh boy did I ever. 4.5 miles off the expressway yelp pointed me to Captain Billy Whizz...not going to lie on the way there I was concerned and I got closer more worried if I had in fact chosen correctly! Pulling in nothing special and the area is interesting.... Saw they had a drive thru and went what the hell let's do this! Ordered a double smash burger with cheese fully dressed extra pickle, tater tots sweet tea and spent $20.00...just me. What I received was a perfectly cooked and seasoned juicy burger...HOT. The bun was soft and reminded me of an old style burger from my childhood. This is a big juicy burger and everything you'd want and expect in a burger. Tatter-tots were ok...hard to go wrong with em.... The problem is the burger...it's soooo damn good you forget about the tots. My only regrets is that I didn't take a pic....that's how good the burger is you won't put it down till it's finished. Ask for extra napkins....

We got seated right away around 1:30 pm on a Friday. There appeared to be only two servers covering the entire room but they did a pretty good job of it. Our waiter, a young man was quite pleasant and knowledgeable. He used an electronic order taking device and was able to customize anything we asked for, right in the device. Three of us ordered shakes. My friend loves Coconut Cream Pie, which they have and she was considering a shake. I suggested she ask our server if he could make her a Coconut Cream Pie shake with vanilla ice cream. Sure enough, he did it and it was quite tasty. For lunch, we ordered as follows: - Patty Melt with Tots (shared by my wife and I) - Kids Finger Basket with 1 Chicken and 1 Steak finger and tots - Steak Finger Basket with Tots The food was very diner diner-like (fried or flat top grilled) and it was tasty. This was a decent and fun lunch and we'd stop here again.

For dessert, Apple pie with ice cream -- good and reliable. Lemon meringue pie -- disappointing despite a well-executed meringue; crust crumbly; texture and taste didn't quite align, with a subtle metallic lemon note.
