The Water Well Cafe 361 — Restaurant in Victoria

Awesome Place I am proud to admit once again that the Water Well Cafe and it's owners Sammy and Jennifer Lopez are and will continue to be an asset to the community of Goliad and surrounding communities. We drive from Victoria at least once a week, sometimes twice a week, to have breakfast or lunch at the Water Well Cafe. Great food, great service, great prices and ample servings. It is awesome to see that so many people have embraced Sammy and Jennifer for their servant's heart. They held the first annual Thanksgiving Feast, for the community, by the community with help from donations and precious volunteers who took a few hours away from their families to help out. Residents of Goliad were served a hot Thanksgiving dinner, dine in, drive thru, and delivered to their homes. To all the folks that had to work and could not be with their families, they received a meal delivered to their place of work, this included nursing home employees, Goliad County Sheriff's office and inmates also were treated to a Turkey Dinner. The dinner was also an opportunity for signing up children for Toys for Tots, gifts that would be given to children that might not be able to get any gifts at Christmas, which was also brought to Goliad by the Lopez family. We have known Sammy and Jennifer for a few years and have served right besides them for many events. I felt like I needed to say this because all this is NOT done for any recognition, of any type. Newspaper, television, award, trophy, or plaque. All these events take place to care for God's children, and see the smiles and gratitude on children and adults faces when getting help they did not expect. That is what we receive as our reward, Praise God. So when anyone walks in to The Water Well Cafe and enjoys a great meal, remember you also become part of this giving by supporting Sammy and Jennifer. Thank you, keep up the great work...

I am torn on how to review this place. The Water Well Cafe 361 is in downtown Victoria. Gives off small town vibes. VERY clean restrooms. Has reasonable prices. I ordered “The Rubio Ribeye”. Only $15.95 comes with two eggs your way, beans and potatoes, and a 10 ounce ribeye. Choice of tortillas or toast. The ribeye was more than 10 ounces and cooked perfectly. Very little gristle or fat. The tea was not too sweet. The only part of the food I did not like was the ranchero sauce you can add for $2. It was watery. More like a soup. Had a good flavor, just too watery to be a sauce. If I was grading on food and atmosphere alone it would be five stars easy. The service is where it was lacking. The waiter acted like he was annoyed having to work. The waiter at the next table and had a great attitude and was really friendly. They ran out of beans. Instead of coming and letting me know, or ask if I want a substitution, he just added more potatoes. Then told me he was doing me a favor by not charging me for the extra potatoes. Never refilled my tea. Like I said before, great food. Need to...

A Blessing of a Place I absolutely love the vibe of God in here. The verses and paintings from the Bible throughout the cafe make it such a peaceful and uplifting place to be. You can truly feel that the food is made with love —it’s more than just a meal, it’s a whole experience. The server Juanita, was great at helping it be a delightful experience.

I had the burger, and it was absolutely delicious—one of the best I’ve had in a long time. What really touched me, though, was something deeper. I was going through a tough time when I visited, and I noticed their section for free books. One of the titles stood out to me—Let Go and Let God. It felt like a beautiful sign, something I was meant to see.

This place isn’t just a cafe; it’s a little piece of heaven on earth. I’ll...
