Wako Taco — Restaurant in Waco

First impression...RIP OFF!....Poor service...I tried calling in my order...called multiple times no answer...when I pull up there's only 1 car there...1!!..."so much for being busy"...and there's a big pink sign that says you could call to order..."but I'd assume someone has to answer the phone for a phone order to be placed) started to just drive off,, but thought I came cause I wanted to.try them out...go inside there's only 2ppl...so now I'm really just thinking like why they couldn't answer the phone....Anyways I tell them my order and pay...but the total doesn't add up...and so I looked at my receipt and noticed that you're charged a 20% tip right off the top without being informed that a tip is automatic(why work for it or give you the option to tip right?!)...Then they have the nerve to ask for an additional tip 🤔...With that being said...why do they need to provide good service if they've already gotten their tip...??....Now don't get me wrong...I'm all for tipping when it's "EARNED"...and "NOT TAKEN"...As far as the food...it was "Ok"...I wouldn't exactly say mexican cuisine as they claim...as I've had mexican food or cuisine as they call it and it has more authentic mexican flavors..their food tasted like what I can make at home...and honestly better!...I guess it's just mexican cuisine because of what it is...not necessarily the flavors...Also the menu is confusing. For burrito IT SAID "ALL" BURRITOS COMES WITH BEANS AND RICE. ..however I got the Texas Burrito it had no description and when ordering tried to ask what all it consisted of but was never told...guess they didn't understand...??...nor did it come with beans or rice(but according to them menu is wrong seen what I mean about the tip). Over all...ok...most likely...

Not a very good first impression. I noticed the new business in the area and decided to give it a try. I looked at their online menu and decided I would try a breakfast burrito. Their online menus state that the breakfast burrito has eggs and two additional items for $4.50. I ordered a bacon, egg, & cheese burrito, and was told that it would be $5.41. I questioned the woman at the window, and was told that the eggs were not automatic on the burrito, so I was charged for an extra item (three items total). I thought I maybe misread it, so I checked the menu again while I waited for my food. When she handed me my food, I showed her the menu on my phone, and she then had a conversation with someone in the restaurant, then told me that the online menus are wrong. I told her that I was not going to argue over fifty cents, but that they should probably correct that if they want return customers. She looked at me funny and said "what?", and I repeated it. She gave me an insincere smile, and told me to have a blessed night, but I'm pretty sure she wanted to tell me to get the F... out of here. The burrito was good, but not anything special. I'm doubtful that I will...

This place is the Hidden Gem of Waco, Texas. My colleagues and I were greeted as we entered by our server. Upbeat music playing set the mood. The servings are generous, our server was phenomenal, and the food rivals any other Mexican restaurant I have ever been.

I got the Quesadilla Maya (steak pastor) and wish I had gotten two servings it was so good. I knew this was THE BEST the moment the flavors hit my lips. A few of my colleagues got the Baylor, and they were all very pleased with them. They have an outdoor fenced-in area to sit and eat, but it was chilly today. Hits all the marks. Beer on draft, but on a work trip so I didn't partake. Got a Topo-Chico instead.

It's very well appointed and the place is very clean. The owner came out and greeted us, so I asked when they were going to open one in College Station. He just laughed. They should...just sayin.

Overall, this place hits all the marks. Not a 5 star in the sense of high faulting....but 5 star in food, customer service,...
