Recommended 12 Dinner Spots Near Waxahachie, Texas

Ted Simons If you’re in Waxahachie, this is a MUST. We stopped here on our way back home. We were searching for an option for lunch and weee amazed by just how many options the menu had. The staff were all super helpful and friendly and the food was simply incredible. We got several items knowing we could take stuff back and we didn’t regret it at all. Peach Cinnamon Roll? The cream cheese had just enough of the peach flavor in it. Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal - my wife loves oatmeal, I don’t mind it and my daughter usually won’t touch it. But we ALL loved it. They had a fall specialty item - S’mores Stuffed French Toast. Simply amazing. Creamy, dreamy chocolate spread between two pieces of French toast that’s topped with mini marshmallows and whip cream. Heaven. The bacon is crisped just right, and the flavor profile just keeps hitting even after that initial bite. I got the brisket cheddar biscuit… KILLER. Two soft biscuits topped with sliced brisket that’s packed with flavor. Then topped with cheddar cheese and an egg of your style and potatoes (I got the home fries). Hands down perfection. I think we just found a new annual stop!

Kathy Ramirez I used the Too Good To Go app, and got four items for under $6. We ate them cold, but know that if we warmed the. Up at home, they would have been better. I will definitely be back!

Gary Mingus We were looking for a new seafood place for our 46th anniversary and decided to try Atkins Seafood! The waitress was great, atmosphere was delightful and food was outstanding as well as the “old fashioned” from the bar! BIG portions and certainly was take home worthy. Salmon & crab legs! Yum

Laloria The greeter, Caleb, was awesome. The theater was clean. They are currently under construction and had only a few arcade games available. The kid pack is a great value. The popcorn was a little salty. I was able to get a replacement that was not as salty. The restrooms were maintained. The theater was clean. We loved the reclining theater seats with the swivel table trays.

david cleaver The service was fine and the staff were pleasant. In fact, they were very helpful when it came to ensuring there were no issues due to food allergies.

Shaunta Sanchez Enjoyed going to this location for my birthday. My favorite part was the refreshing water that we ordered.

Mechelle Hopgood The service was wonderful! Our meal was delicious... one of the best Cotton Patch Cafe restaurants we have been to.

AH This is a must you try! The staff is super nice and the food is absolutely amazing and portions are VERY generous. If your ever in Wax go go!

J Centavo Im a self proclaimed burger snob and i rate burgers harshly when not done correctly. My all time favorite burger joint was Alamo Springs burgers in Fredericksburg Texas (now out of business) second favorite was grillem all burgers in Alhambra, CA. With the demise of Alamo Springs, Grillem all went to first. And the only other burger joint that Ive ever rated 10/10 across the board. Theres some dang fine burger joints in the dfw like Liberty Burger, La Burger, etc but they all lack in some areas. Today while working in Waxahatchie, i saw this place and had to try. First the atmosphere: 10/10. Loved the old style motif and the smells.. You know a good burger is a high probability. Next service: the waitress, cook and register person were all great 10/10. Finally what counts, the burger. I ordered my standard bacon cheese burger with jalapenos and my folks shared a regular cheese burger. I got fries and they got onion rings. My burger was a SOLID 9.5. only reason not a 10 is because i prefer smash burgers. If you like them think, youll probably give this a10/10. The fries, hand cut 10/10, perfect. My folks tasted their burger a 10/10 and their onion rings (onion strings really) a 9/10. Prices were very reasonable and theres lots of choices. This is the highest score Ive given a burger joint in Texas other than Alamo springs... Its that dang good. Toasted buns, shredded veggies, grilled jalapenos, perfect. Quite honestly, i work all over the country and every corner of Texas and have tried burgers in them all. In Texas, this is definitely top two of not the best Ive tried. If you like burgers, this place doesnt disappoint! Highly highly recommended!

Lenora Breeland This place was delicious! We dropped in later on a Sunday morning after looking at a bunch of breakfast places, but they all had long wait times. No wait time, served right away, huge portions! Best charro beans ever! We had the al pastor mini tacos, menudo, tacos al carbon, and queso flamedo. All were on point and so good! Try the mixed tortillas, a combination of flour and corn!

LM Fanava Great hostess and waitress service. Love the Christmas vibe. The complimentary bread was so delicious and a right dose of garlic. I’m have Italian blood, so bring on the garlic, and they did with their bread. We also ordered two small pies and they were a bit too small for us. They were delicious, so will definitely be going back.

Christy Marshall I literally drive an hour to eat here when I want Italian. The food is FRESH and made to order clearly. I use to be a big fan of Olive Garden until my husband took me here to eat in July 2025 - I have not eaten any Italian any where else but here. Food is superb, staff is so friendly, the chef is rocking that place!
