Crickets Draft House & Grill - (Near Waco, TX)

Melinda Lantelme This was an unexpected surprise in this small town. They have really good food!

Grace Bryant If youre in Tyler, you must visit this restaurant. Best Chicken Fried Steak ever, with my meal I got free Chili and Blue Bell ice cream. Friendly staff. Delicious food

SM Perfect timing. Not too full nor busy. The hostess was distracted on her phone, so it took her a little longer than normal to acknowledge us and seat us. However, the waiter was super awesome and helpful. He provided great recommendations and was perfectly attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. It was hot and fresh. The ingredients themselves were fresh, too. I have not had great food and a great experience like this in a long time. It was our first time there, Im so glad I chose the place. Oh, the raspberry tea was delicious, too!! Great job!!!

B P Burgers are always freshly made and well seasoned. The chili cheese fries and frito pie are my go-tos. Customer service is always great too.

Mark Rabinovitsh Absolutely phenomenal experience at Hamsa! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and inviting. Our server Michelle was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the evening. The floor manager Jordan Hooks was also incredibly accommodating and made us feel truly welcome. We started with the lamb hummus, amba pickled vegetables, and harissa carrots — all bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The pita bread, fresh and warm right out of the oven, was some of the best I’ve had anywhere. For mains, the chicken thigh skewer was juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned, while the lamb Lachmagun was absolutely excellent — rich, savory, and full of depth. And then… dessert! The Malabi was outstanding, the Petiber tiramisu was delightful, but the chocolate halva completely stole the show — especially paired with a cup of hot Turkish coffee. Every dish was a hit, the service was top-notch, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. Can’t wait to come back!

Dan Z Bellinos was a really pleasant surprise! The staff was all super sweet and accommodating - even though we arrived at peak time on a Saturday night without a reservation... They quickly figured out a table for us and service was non-stop great food. We got the mini-meatballs as an appetizer (they are spicy), my wife got the Pollo Parmegianna and I got the crispy salmon salad, hey it had been a long time since Id had salmon without that peculiar "tanginess" and it was cooked to perfection. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity youll get, and the low-light atmosphere bring you to a nice set. Theres no need to over think it, just go there and enjoy!
