Born from a passion for celebrating Waco’s local food scene, Waco Restaurant Week debuted in September 2019.
Created by locals, for locals, it has since become a community-driven tradition—showcasing our culinary talent while making a lasting impact.
Since 2019, Waco Restaurant Week has raised $53,000 for local nonprofits while driving economic impact across our community. This weeklong celebration honors our chefs, restaurants, food trucks, coffee shops, and bars—showcasing the flavors that make Waco unique. Participating restaurants keep 100% of their sales while playing a vital role in making our city a vibrant and thriving place to live.
Each year, participating restaurants offer menu specials and popup events to celebrate our city. Together, we are creating a beautiful, vibrant city for all to enjoy.
