My friend suggested to go here for lunch. I was glad she did ,it was a very nice lunch. The food was very good the spiced tea was amazing. Then the stroll around the shop after was great lots of unique items and ornaments, very unique loved it all. Can not wait to go back for dessert since we were so full after lunch we H ad to pass on dessert. Service was great as well always attentive if we needed anything.

We were pleasantly surprised by this small corner restaurant/ shop. The atmosphere was a bit bougie, the service was great and the food was quick, hot & fresh! Not your typical small town restaurant as the menu options are tweaked to impress your ventures taste buds We will be going back!

We are dropping our daughter off at college in Waxahachie and found this adorable place. The food was all so delicious. I had the soup of the day which was green chili with chicken and hominy. Very tasty!! My salad was the Texas Caesar Salad, a yummy twist on your typical Caesar salad. Hubby had a huge and delectable hamburger and my daughter had the panini and house salad. We all loved our food and they topped off their lunch with the strawberry shortcake. We will be back!! Our waitress was sweet and attentive.

Here’s the thing, I really want to give this place 5 stars but I cannot. The food is good, yes- but can you please update your menu or atleast let your patrons know that menu prices have changed? Or there is a pretty significant percentage added if using a CC? Not sure what happened but I have included a photo of my receipt with the prices I paid and the prices listed on the menu, there is a discrepancy in every item we ordered off of the menu, including soft drinks. And unfortunately our server made us feel rushed, I never felt more pestered while eating my appetizer to order an entree. She just seemed very annoyed and that we were taking too much of her time. You guys should do better with customer service, food was tasty though.

This place was so cute, the food was so good and the people were so nice! They had a good amount of unique options on the menu. The orange spice tea was great! We also enjoyed the deviled eggs, the green chicken chili soup, chicken salad and ham jam sandwich. It’s also connected to a super cute gift shop

We love the old school vibe of old town Waxahachie and have heard a lot of great things about this restaurant so we decided to give it a try. Their Panini‘s were amazing! Make sure you try one! We loved the Jalapeño sandwich and the desserts were excellent too. Half a sandwich with a cup of soup or salad on the side is sufficient for most as they are quite filling and don’t skimp on the meats in the sandwich.

Loved our brunch at the Dove’s Nest. We arrived right at opening and it got busy fast. One of us ordered the salad, the other two ordered the special- a ham, green chili, and goat cheese quiche with a cup of chicken chili. Everything was delicious and service was great. We took home a slice of the chocolate chip walnut pie and two of the mousse desserts from the counter cabinet- all were delicious for days afterward. Will be back!

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.

Great lunch spot! The shrimp and grits is my favorite. They also have Dove Dinners ever so often and are definitely worth the visit and a great date night option.

We walked into a shop and stumbled upon a quaint and charming restaurant so decided to give it a try since it was lunch time. Started off with the deviled eggs (a hubby favorite) and he declared it was delicious. The bacon and jalapeño bit was a nice touch. He decided on the panini and finished it rather quickly so that’s AirAsia a good sign. I had the chicken salad and requested that it be toasted with the seasonal house salad. There was so much that I couldn’t finish it. They were a little heavy handed with the vinaigrette so I would ask for it on the side. The marcona almonds were a nice touch. We got a hamburger to go for our son and he liked it enough that he asked where we’d gotten it (this 16 year old rates restaurant burgers and has categories so if he’s asking it’s good! )

The shop is beautifully decorated and provided some great ideas for the fall. Will definitely be back to look for Christmas! There were also some gourmet treats for purchase so take a look at my video and pictures. I picked up some truffle parmesan for our Friday movie nights.
