    Once again the food, beer and service were top notch. We come to Waco once a year and this is always on our itinerary.

    Our second time here. The pretzel was very good but not as large as it seemed the first time we ordered it especially for $13. My wife and I both ordered the Cobb salad and we both had items missing from the salad. again pretty high priced for what was on the plate.

    You can’t go wrong with dining at Pivovar’s. Nice selections to chose from off the menu - we enjoyed one of the best salmon, and fish/chips meal to be found in Waco. Definitely too it off with the cheesecake 👍🏼 Na zdravi!

    Food was good, but pricey for what you got. Spent as much as I would at a nice steakhouse, but I think I would’ve enjoyed steakhouse more.

    Delicious food! We had the charcuterie board and schnitzel with mashed potatoes. Both were outstanding! The beer was cold and refreshing and paired well with our food choices! Service was excellent in spite of us getting there close to closing time. We will be returning!!

    We came here for Mother’s Day after a day at the zoo. The place was pretty empty but had a cool industrial look to it. Our server was attentive and kind. We ordered the bread with jam and cheese as an appetizer and it wasn’t anything special. Way overpriced. There was a special Mother’s Day brunch menu they were offering so I decided to get the eggs Benedict. It was served on the same baguette type of bread slices as the appetizer and it was hard as a rock. The eggs weren’t done and the crispy potatoes had absolutely no seasoning on them. Very bland. I was disappointed. My server recommended the omelette so I asked for that instead and it wasn’t better than the Benedict but also lacked flavor. This place has a cool atmosphere but they need to work on the food which is the most important part of a restaurant.

    Great beer and food. The schnitzel was excellent and my wife had the goulash — which was amazingly tender. Very nice staff too. Will come back whenever I’m in Waco.
