In Short
This no-frills hamburger joint opened on Congress in 1976 and now has several locations. Creaky hardwood floors and big wooden chairs make up a causal environment where buddies relax with suds and grub. Old photographs and signs decorate the walls, reminding you of the days of Stevie Ray Vaughn and Willie Nelson. Everything is made to order. Aside from the famous burgers and fries, regulars crave the Texas Philly sandwich and queso chopped steak.

Today for lunch, I ordered the fried mushrooms (very pricey 8 for $6.95, I expected a big basket) and the tortilla soup which consisted of tomato base water with large chucks of something green and large chunks of tomato. No chicken, no cheese, no tortilla strips and no avacado at $4.95. Both of these dished were poorly exceuted, will not go back.

Waterloo has really good fun and a friendly staff. It's a fun place to go, has a good atmosphere. Not the place to go for a quiet, romantic meal but great for the family. Reasonable prices too.

My family went here (first visit) on a Sunday at lunchtime and it was packed which is to be expected. As we walked in, someone yelled "find a seat". Only one 4 person table was available and it still had the previous guests drinks, but we sat there anyway. I flagged the busser about 5 minutes later and that was the only service we got. About 15 minutes later as we were getting up to leave the waittress asked us if we wanted menus. Instead we drove another 20 minutes to Hut's on 6th where we had to wait again. But this time, we at least knew that they knew we were there. This was our first time there also. The food was excellent. The service was probably the best I have had in a long time, especially considering how crowded it was and how horrible the service was at Waterloo.
