DiamondBacks - Waco (TX)

5 /5 Erika Smith: Addie T was our server and couldn’t be more delightful! Made excellent recommendations and everything was delicious! We enjoyed the Downtown Waco sushi as an app. Off menu filet and ribeye were cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. The bartender suggested a local whiskey that my husband really liked and a red wine that went great with my steak. I was able to add the burrata to my filet and it was also very good. No complaints. Quiet and well appointed dining area in historic building with charming touches. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nice dining experience. Walking distance from Hilton.

5 /5 B S: DiamondBack’s in Waco is an excellent choice for a nice night out. Great steaks, flavorful sides, and a classy, comfortable atmosphere. Service was attentive and professional, and everything we ordered was cooked perfectly. A solid spot for date nights or special occasions.

4 /5 Julia Tardy: Came here for the first time with family, we got a special room off to the side where it was quiet. Best part of the experience was our server, Cullen. I had shown up about 20 minutes earlier than the rest of my party, and he took the time to speak with me while I was waiting. He was a fantastic server and I really appreciated how genuine he was. The food was good. A few things to note: the prime rib could have used more seasoning (although it was perfectly cooked), the bread was odd (not normal fluffy bread but crunchy and hollow) and the lobster mac n cheese wasnt really cheesy and didnt have a ton of seasoning. But the service was great, and everyone enjoyed our time there. Again, huge shoutout to Cullen!

1 /5 R. H.: My grand daughter graduated Baylor. We had a party of 11. Reserved the wine room. We were redirected to an area that were high tops that you couldn’t stay in and slid out. Dinner took 3 hrs. Food came out sporadically, no water, ate around all dirty plates and drinks that were empty. Nothing cleared for an hour… We were leaving without our entrees and they started bringing them a few at a time. We were prepared for champagne toasts, drinks, appetizers, entrees and a wonderful evening. Apparently a much more important group took our joy. We won’t ever forget this experience unfortunately.

5 /5 Oscar Portalatin: Amazing service, cozy vibe, and a hidden gem on the menu! DiamondBack’s was an awesome experience from start to finish. The staff was super friendly and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere is warm, elegant, and perfect for a special night out. But the real star? The Fried Lobster! It’s not on the menu, but if you ask for it—you’re in for a treat. Crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend giving it a try if you’re in Waco!
