Abigail was the best. Made a special accommodation for my pregnant wife so she could be very comfortable while we enjoyed our delicious meal. Highly recommend the brisket breakfast burrito

Waco has a number of very good breakfast or brunch places. This place, to me, is the best in Waco. Yes, I understand how that is a big statement. Their avocado toast was good, and so is the Power Bowl with bacon.

Only had breakfast so can’t comment on anything else, but breakfast is the , best in Waco. Anyone who complains about it should go to rocket cafe and be happily mediocre. The deets…

We were very impressed by the food. Everyone at the table was remarking about what they were eating, and it was all positive (There were 10 of us, so that’s impressive). The prices are actually great for what you are getting. The value is realized after you taste it. I ate the best chicken-fried steak I’ve ever had. I usually don’t order it because it’s the same everywhere and it seems like most restaurants just warm it up and throw some gravy on it. This chef actually put love (and seasoning) in it. All of the food was creative, fresh, cooked well, and delicious. We didn’t get dessert, but it all looked amazing. Next time.

The hostess was nice, 20 minute wait. The waitress was nice an the restaurant was busy. Looking at other people’s meals the food plates look like art work an delicious. The menus they had 2 an it was simple to read. On 1 menu had drinks an the other 1 had the fo9d an drinks also. We placed our order an didn’t take long for our food to arrive. I got the Brisket Skillet, everything was in a Skillet when it arrived. The food in the middle was hotter under the egg when cooked then out side of the egg was barely luke warm.

The atmosphere was great, really trendy. The service was mediocre, but it was busy. The food was just “meh” for what it cost us. I brought a large group of ladies in to eat and I just felt that $12 for a medium sized plate of macaroni was way overpriced. I had a salad with fried chicken on top and there were french fries mixed in with the chicken that obviously didn’t belong in my meal. I mentioned it to my server and she didn’t offer a discount or anything- or even offer to replace my meal with another. Which, in my opinion, was poor service. There was maybe 6 small pieces of chicken in the whole salad. I do believe there were more pieces of french fries in my salad than chicken. Pretty disappointed and honestly I don’t know if I’ll be bringing our ladies group back.

Gabby at the front was the best I have seen at Olive Branch! She was hustling to get tables turned over for the large wait list. Coffee was available at the front which was a nice touch while we waited. The food was amazing as always!

Went with a group of 8 for lunch, and the staff was very accommodating for our group. We sat in the table upstairs, and everyone fit just fine. The only issue we had was when the waitress tried to input our order, she messed up and didn’t fully submit our order. She was able to catch her mistake after a bit, but this caused a delay in our food coming out. The staff was incredibly apologetic and even gave us a discount on our meals due to this error. Every other aspect was great. The food was delicious, and everything about the order was still correct ( there had been a couple of customizations made to some meals). The portions are also very generous! Would still recommend even with the delay. I appreciate the staff for being able to correct the mistakes and having good service.

The worst breaded French toasts ever. The biscuits and sausage n gravy horrible. They were not biscuits but something else and hard. Also they served it with just a little bit of gravy. The sausage was crumbled not in the gravy, but around and tasted gross. The orange juice was concentrate and tasted rotten. Expensive, however servers were nice and attentive if that’s any compensation. Don’t waste your money on below average food. Mac Donald’s would have been better.

Everything was amazing! We had a wonderful experience while we celebrated our friends marriage. Everything was perfect until my wife’s dress had a mishap. The staff *Amanda* were quick to give us a shirt from the bar. Amanda not only provided us a shirt but she went out of her way to ask if we needed anything else. Feeling extremely grateful for the kind staff at Olive Branch!
