3-Star Review of Pignetti's Waco

Three stars. Solo diner on a weeknight. I asked for a table and was told bar seating only, even though at least one table sat open the entire hour I was there. Not sure what the policy is, but it felt odd as a party of one. The bar staff were friendly, which helped. Service overall ran slow though. It took a while to get my order placed and a while longer to get the check, so a quick dinner turned into an hour. I had the mushroom ravioli with an Aperol spritz. The pasta didn’t seem fully cooked through, which was disappointing for the price point. The atmosphere is actually cool, kind of a blend of themes that somehow works. Would consider giving it another shot, but they’d need to tighten up the seating policy and the kitchen.

    First, thank you, Jay, for the amazing, outstanding service! If you visit, definitely request Jay, you won't be disappointed. He made our dining experience even more enjoyable. Now, let's talk about the food! The hot honey dip paired with the fresh, warm sourdough bread was absolutely incredible. The Chicken Pesto Pasta was top-tier, and the salmon was cooked to perfection. And then, the dessert! The homemade cheesecake literally melted in our mouths. It was rich, velvety, creamy, and hands down one of the best cheesecakes we've ever had. My husband and I enjoyed every single bite and every moment. We can't wait to come back!

    My wife and I have dined in many outstanding resturants, on multiple continents, in our 25 years together. Our dinner tonight was a top 5 meal that we've shared together. The food itself was outstanding and our server Brycen K. was wonderful from start to finish. We are in town for our kiddos graduation and we were not expecting to find this caliber of dining in Waco, TX. The personal touch with the desert was unexpected and really thoughtful, tears were almost shed at the table. Thank you to this establishment for a job very well done.

    Fantastic italian spot just downstairs from our airbnb. Waco had a sudden temperature drop (went from 90 to 30) and we didn’t feel like venturing out. The fireplace and hearty food was just the ticket for our staycation day :) The pork chop, pastas and appetizers were all amazing, especially the calamari!
