We visited for lunch on 2/22/24 at 12:43pm. Below is what we ate and a rating from 1-10 -salad medley- 7. Chicken salad was a little dry, fruit was very basic grapes and a small slice of cantaloupe with rind attached -spinach salad, add salmon- 7. Spinach was whole, large and had stems attached, making it a little tough to eat. Salmon was fishier than I prefer but it was still good, orange curry dressing was surprisingly good. -deviled eggs- 9 -forgot the name our server but she was great. -the place is cute, you have to walk through the gift shop in order to eat here- smart. I didn’t buy anything but saw a few items I liked. When we arrived, we were told it was a 20 minute wait., so we made a quick restroom stop there in the gift shop. As we both emerged from the restroom no more than 3 minutes later- a young lady was yelling, our name out repeatedly… And loud, this was a little embarrassing, and did not start our experience off very well. -Piece of feedback I have this: more and more we are driven to a cashless society, almost no one takes cash anymore-but this place offers a “cash discount”.. but don’t be fooled by that, it is an up charge for using a card. This seems like a low class money grab, just price your items for everyone regardless of their form of payment. People should not be charged for using a card in this day and age. The place is certainly cute and quaint and if we are in Waxahachie again, anytime soon, we may stop by again Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes Chicken Apricot Salad Sandwich w Salad

Visited in the afternoon, about an hour before close and ordered the hamburger. While described as being served medium, the burger arrived just short of well done, but was still nice and moist. Overall, I felt that the burger was a bit bland and unremarkable. The Bourbon Pecan Pie with ice cream, however, was amazing! It had a nice, cake-like texture rather than a traditional pecan pie filling, and was drizzled with chocolate. The pecans were enough to give a nice contrasting texture, but not overwhelm the other aspects of the dessert. I did notice that the table next to me received the incorrect order, and called the server back over within a few minutes. The server apologized and removed the plates, but then delivered them directly to their intended destination. I would want to be confident that my food hadn't sat at another table before being delivered to me. Otherwise the service was extremely friendly and efficient.

We will definitely be back! Waxahachie has more than 1 great local restaurant but The Dove’s Nest may be a new fave! (A 20 minute wait for 2 people at 11:25am is a good sign that it’s popular!) It’s not the cheapest restaurant but $20ish to be totally stuffed with amazing food is not a bad deal at all! Mom and I usually order our own and split everything so she got the Dove’s Nest Salad Medley ($13.95) with Apricot Chicken Salad and Baby Spinach Salad which was very large and super fresh! The chicken salad has sherried apricots with fresh rosemary honey Dijon mayo which sounds like a strange combo but is probably the best I’ve ever had! The Baby Spinach Salad has apple wood bacon, golden raisins & apples with orange curry dressing… again sounds suspicious but amazing! I ordered the Ham & Jam Sandwich (slices of grilled pit ham & Brie with arugula, mayo and private label peach habanero jam on a toasted ciabatta $12.75) on the recommendation of our very nice, friendly and attentive waitress (Rebekah I think)! Again, didn’t sound super great but ya super great! I got the 1/2 sandwich with a cup of soup as the soup of the day was Green Chile Chicken which can be a bit spicy but this was just about perfect! In case that wasn’t enough food (which it was) we each got an oversized slice of Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie (comes with a double scoop of ice cream for $7.50) which was GREAT! Real metal utensils and cloth napkins in a cool old building (without the increasingly common loud music) are just added bonuses! A few things to be aware of… 1 there’s an upcharge for not paying cash… 2 the entrance to the restaurant is not the door on the side street but through the gift shop door on the corner (which is by design because) 3 you have to go through a great gift shop where you (and especially any female companions) will almost certainly find something to buy. Apparently the Dallas Morning News gave them 3.5 stars (which I think is short by about 1.5) and Texas Monthly magazine voted them one of the top 10 best small town restaurants in Texas! They’re only open for lunch but if you’re in the area it’s a do not miss! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This is my favorite restaurant in Waxahachie! The owners are super nice! The service was wonderful! All the servers are respectful! After coming here my whole life and reading the negative reviews I can tell those people have never been there! I love it! I get the veggie pita with grilled chicken and it is to die for! It’s so refreshing and healthy! They use all fresh tasting ingredients!! I highly recommend stopping by for the food and shopping!!

It's a great home grown Cafe in Waxahachie, TX! It is light fare for breakfast or lunch. The food is solid minus a few minor executions with the food. But the infractions I speak of are minor things I am sure will be corrected as time goes by....it is a wonderful spot to shop or eat. Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

As you go through the nice little store in the front, it opens up to a the restaurant in the back. Lots of stuff that grabbed my attention throughout the store. I chose the Dove's Nest Club Panini and was a very well made sandwich and came with chips on the side. The staff was friendly and food came relatively quick, just seemed to be a bit understaffed. Had someone get the Bourbon Pecan Pie with ice-cream next to me and I had to get it. I have to say this is a must if you have never had it.

It was my first time here... I had lunch with a couple of friends, one who lives in Waxahachie. Both friends have been there before. I had the chicken salad sandwich. It was so good that, when I saw they sold the mix in the little shop area, I bought two packages to take home!! The service was great, the atmosphere was nice. I will definitely go back if I'm in the area. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Apricot Chicken Salad Sandwich

Everything I've eaten here has been amazing! I really like their Cob Salad, and desserts are a must. I can't forget to mention the orange spiced tea, super good! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
