Magnolia Table - Waco (TX)

5 /5 GiGi’s List: While in Waco, I visited Magnolia table for breakfast. Sidenote here. We made a reservation ahead of time and thank goodness that we did because there was quite the line of people waiting. When we came in people looked at us like good luck, we went up to the hostess, gave them our name and were immediately seated. The waitress came right over, provided us with water and then took our coffee order. While we perused the menu. We placed our order and the food was brought out quick and it was hot. I believe I ordered the farmers breakfast and my daughter ordered pancakes with bacon. The pancakes were huge. The portions were large, definitely more than we could eat. My daughter did point out that it was so quiet in the restaurant, even though it was full. She noticed that there was no music. When the weight staff would come to clean off a table, they were very quiet about it, and there was no clanging of dishes, which was very nice. When we finished we paid our bill and then went to check out their little store on the other side of the restaurant. I would go back.

4 /5 Jenu: I visited Magnolia Table in Waco and really liked the nice interiors, they give the place a warm and cozy feel. It’s definitely a spot where making a reservation is recommended because it gets busy. The service was reasonably fast, which was great. The food was decent overall. The biscuit with strawberry butter stood out as something unique and tasty. The rest of the food was good, but not excellent. Still, it’s a nice place to visit for the atmosphere and a pleasant meal.

5 /5 Vanessa Avila: My mom and I stopped in at Magnolia table for brunch. I was able to make a reservation an hour prior with no issues. The space is beautiful and very clean. It was around lunchtime so it was pretty busy. We were seated within a minute with no issues. Our server was very patient as we were indecisive. Everything on the menu looks so delicious. We decided on avocado toast with bacon on the side and the three sliders. The pimento bacon cheeseburger was my favorite, it had so much flavor! The avocado toast was very flavorful as well. The sourdough bread and olive oil made it next level. After brunch, we walked over next-door to the store where you could buy some of the things they offer in the restaurant and souvenirs such as sweaters, hand towels, magnets. Shop with caution everything is pricey. We did end up buying some blackberry jam, vanilla, strawberry jam, orange honey, and they’re famous strawberry whipped butter!

5 /5 LeAnn Inman: Definitely make a reservation! My son ordered Jos crunchy French toast with over easy eggs and bacon, my sister and I ordered the Farm house breakfast and we had coffee. Everything was SO good. The French toast was the favorite. The bacon is very good too. We were seated at 10:20 am, and our reservation was at 10:30 am today. Service was very good and the food was delicious! We loved the atmosphere! The plant boxes everywhere were very nice. The restrooms were very clean and they had an attendant in there to keep it clean. We appreciated that there wasnt music playing in the background. You could just hear the hustle and bustle of a busy restaurant and the conversations of people enjoying a meal together. We will make sure Magnolia Table is part of our annual trip to Silobration!

4 /5 Bentham Michelle: We landed in Waco Christmas Day and made a reservation with Magnolia Table for Friday morning. It is a bit out of the way, but the place itself is nice with an upscale diner feel. Seating at wall tables was a bit cramped. Parking is a challenge. Service was reasonable, our waiter kind and relational asking about our trip and how our Christmas had been spent. THE STRAWBERRY BUTTER WAS WORTH THE VISIT. Their breakfast sausage was yummy, and sourdough toast a nice option. In all honesty, strawberry butter appears to be whipped butter with strawberry preserves added. Not sure if they are homemade or store bought. The rest of our meal was rather ordinary. The biscuits looked like something reheated from frozen. The scrambled eggs came out lukewarm with chives or parsley sprinkles, not so special, the home fried potatoes were basic Dennys or IHOP fair without peppers or onions -- appeared to be from a bagged frozen food service, and our waiter while fast and relational at first was absent while we ate, and we had to wait for about 15 minutes after we finished our meal to get our check. At $50+ dollars for two breakfasts, a coffee, soda, and 4 biscuits with strawberry butter seems a bit overpriced. A unique local restaurant in D/FW without strawberry butter for two similar breakfasts with homemade biscuits and real butter was less than $30 and more satisfying portions.
