George’s Restaurant Bar & Catering #2 -Food CA (Near Waco)

2 /5 Melanie Johnson: Ordered the Buffalo wings ( 8 bone in wings) get all the way home and I was given boneless. After working a 12 hours at work and tired I’m not going back to get the right order. But definitely not happy about this and the reason behind this review!

1 /5 Chris A: Food is ok had better but that not the reason I am posting this. The service we got last night was by far the worst ever in all my dining experiences throughout my life. Not exaggerating either. We frequent your establishment at least twice per week, either this one or the other location. The server here clearly did not want to serve us. bad attitude, messed up my order overall bad. I feel that as a business you do not want me as a customer and as someone who typically spends about $150-200 every night I will gladly take my business elsewhere. Mind you only spent about $70 last night due to how many times our server checked on us.

5 /5 Casey Watkins: Good Food, Good Vibes, and Texas Comfort on a Plate ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ George’s Bar & Grill knows how to do comfort food right. We stopped in for a laid-back dinner, and it turned out to be one of those meals where you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. I had the catfish basket, and let me tell you—it was fried to perfection. Crispy golden crust on the outside, tender and flaky catfish on the inside. No grease, just straight-up flavor. Paired it with garlic mashed potatoes, which were creamy, rich, and had just enough bite to let that garlic shine through. It hit the spot. My wife went with the steak finger basket and a side of mac and cheese, and she was all smiles. The steak fingers were hearty, well-seasoned, and had that satisfying crunch you want from Southern-style comfort food. And the mac and cheese? Creamy, cheesy, and made like someone’s grandma was back there stirring the pot. The atmosphere was just as good as the food—casual, friendly, and buzzing with that local charm that makes you feel right at home. Service was quick and on point, and the prices were more than fair for the portions we got. George’s is one of those places that doesn’t need to be flashy—it wins you over with flavor, comfort, and consistency. If you’re in the mood for Southern favorites served with a smile, this place is a must-visit.

5 /5 Running Deep: I’ve wanted to try George’s Restaurant in Waco for some time and we finally had an opportunity to try their second location in West Waco. We stopped for a late lunch on Thursday. The lunch crowd was already gone, and we were seated right away. Our server, Brittany, was amazing. She was very friendly and helpful with the menu since it was our first time. She made it an enjoyable dining experience and when we go back, we will ask for Brittany! We were given jalapeno cheese cornbread while we waited for our food. We both liked the cornbread, especially with the whipped butter that was served with it. For our meals, I got the Southwest Chicken Club, and my wife got the lunch portion of Chicken Fried Steak. My sandwich did not come with a side, but it was a great chicken sandwich. With avocado, bacon, pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, and honey lime dressing, it was a well put together sandwich with great flavors. The lunch portion Chicken Fried Steak was only $8.25….WHAT???? That’s right, I don’t think we have seen a better lunch menu deal out there. You’ll spend more than that at every fast-food restaurant. Not only was it a great deal, it was also very good. My wife got the buttered sweet corn and French fries as her sides. She got the French fries to share with me, since my sandwich didn’t come with a side, and it was more than enough for both of us. The chicken fried steak was tender and the breading and cream gravy were both very good. We had absolutely no criticism for our entire meal. And for a first time, we both ordered dessert because my wife couldn’t resist getting the peach cobbler. The peach cobbler came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and it was really good. I ordered the Big “O” Sundae. It comes with two scoops of vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, strawberries, pecans, and whipped cream. One word…Awesome! We had a great meal at George’s #2. When we are back in the Waco area, we’ll definitely come back and hopefully bring our whole family. Bottom Line, GO eat at George’s!

3 /5 C: I carried out my order last night. I guess they dont know how soggy and nasty the quesadillas were. They were awful greasy on the bottom, and just slipped in the container. That was a wasted meal. The chicken fried steak you had to continually chew and keep chewing. It was tough. Oh and no silverware was in the bag no napkins. Was very bad take out.
