The food was incredible--one of the best burgers I've had, buffalo mac and cheese was the best thing by far, and the quesadilla was new and yummy.

I ordered the chicken fried chicken sandwich-which was supposed to be spiced but it was not, but still tasted good. My daughter got the Jakes sampler and liked the stuffed jalapeños and mozzarella sticks. The fried pickles, which I've had before, were good but clumped together. The rest of the people at our table ordered a single burger, cheese quesadilla, and a chicken fried stake-which she said was so good. Our waitress did her best and was helpful when we asked questions.

I was passing through Waco and wanted to pick up some food to-go from here. In N Out usually…read moreconsistently offers good food products, and so I figured I would stop in here. Well, it was super busy when I pulled in, and but I did manage to find a parking spot. I parked and headed inside. There was a line at the counter, so I patiently waited my turn. No big deal. Finally it was my turn to be served. I placed my order, customized it (only modified one thing), and then paid for my order. I did request for it to go. I waited and waited. Other orders got called, and I kept waiting. Felt like I waited forever. Lots of other people got their orders. I was trying to be patient. Eventually I looked back on a counter further behind the front counter. I could see a bag with my order number on it. It had been sitting on that back counter for a few minutes. Employees were passing by it, but not bringing it to the front counter and calling the number out. I was about to just walk over to the register and tell the lady who had taken my order that my order back there was ready. Finally she turned toward my bag of food, looked at the order number, and called it out. I walked up to pick up the food. She acted like it was no big deal, didn't apologize for making me wait longer, and that was that. I took my food and headed back to the car. I had a schedule to keep, so I couldn't spend much time checking out my food. I trusted that it was made to their usual quality. I headed out of town. I got a little further down the road, and then opened the bag to start eating some of my fries. I grabbed an undercooked fry from the bag. I then took the whole fry box out of the bag. I realized that about a quarter of all the fries in the box were undercooked. Yuck. Then there were a few overcooked, brown, over-crispy fries in the box too! I was like wow...but I was too far away from the restaurant to bother to drive back and ask for new fries. Then I set the fries down and took out my cheeseburger to start enjoying that. I pulled the wrapper down and started biting into it. The burger itself was not bad, but the bun was burned. Yuck. Overall, this is not the service or quality of food I had expected from there. I should not have to wait excessively for my food when it's already packed and ready, nor should I have food that is not properly cooked. Next time I am passing through Waco, I won't go here for anything. No thanks.

You walk up to the window and order. The man was very helpful in answering our questions. We both selected the smoked chicken with sweet chili sauce. We sat at the wooden picnic tables in the sun (in March) and I loved it. My husband should have chosen brisket. I think he would have enjoyed it more. Highly recommend

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....
