The Waterloo Restaurant

Food is barely decent and not much on the menu. It is overpriced and they cater to Linden locals so if your not a popular local expect to be treated like an outsider rather than a paying customer.

Update: Saturday, March 30, 2024 PM Wowboth Rosie and the Giants hit it out of the ballpark tonight! We had a great dinner thanks to Rosie, our incredible server. We usually try to ask for section. She is awesome! My son ordered the steak and pesto which he was happy with! I ordered the H2O speciala dark meat quarter chicken and charbroiled rib ends. The chicken was piping hot, fresh and juicy! I love the rib ends. Instead of pesto I opted for the spaghetti with red meat sauce. Its kind of a nice change from the pestonot quite as rich and thats what I was looking for! We ordered iced tea. Excellent excellent fresh brewed iced tea! Our glasses were never empty. All of the servers are great. They pitch in and pick up plates and keep your glasses filled. Definitely a five star experience. We ordered the chocolate cheesecake for dessert. My son liked it. It was a bit sweet for me. Thank you, Rosie for taking such good care of us! /- Update: Thursday, September 21, 2023 PM Have to have my Waterloo fix once in a while. I knew what I wantedthe H2O special. Ribs and chicken with pesto. I was seated at a small table and my server came up and looked at me and said I remember you! OMG, it was Rosie The awesome server I had six months ago and she remembered me. Great way to start a great meal. And again, Rosie hit it out of the ballpark. She checked on me just offered enough to make sure I had everything I needed and took awesome care of me. Dinner was good. I enjoyed both ribs and chicken. The dinner salad is awesome. Great bread with lots of butter. When you go, ask for Rosie! Thanks Rosie! - Update: Thursday, April 14, 2022 Ordered the New York steak, medium, for dinner tonight. Sadly, the steak was a bit on the tough side. Ive had the steak twice before. One time was outstanding, the other time not so. But whatever deficiency with the steak, my server, Rosie, made up for it! She is a top server in my book. When I go back I will definitely ask for one of her tables. Kudos to Rosie! I will leave the rating at four stars, since the majority of time my experience at this restaurant is great. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Update: Thursday, April 7, 2022 Was craving Waterloo tonight. Ordered the H2O special which consists of barbecue ribs and chicken. Price has increased a bit just like everything else. Started with an amazing salad with the house dressing. Bread and butter. I ordered the spaghetti with meat sauce instead of Bettes famous pesto. I was very happy with the spaghetti. After I ate half of that meal and the bread and butter I was pretty full so I took the rest home in a doggy bag. I also ordered a side of the spaghetti with meat sauce to go to complement my leftovers for the next day. I enjoy their spaghetti. Sadly they were out of pies or I wouldve probably taken a slice home. They have some good pies! Friendly and attentive servers! Kudos! Recommend! ++++++++++++++ Been eating at Waterloo for decades. Overall and usually its pretty good. But also has its off days. I did enjoyable dinner tonight, Saturday 11/20/21. The service was awesome. I went earlier than normal so it was not busy. I ordered the Waterloo Special ($25).. ribs, chicken and pesto. Also comes with your choice of a house salad which is very good or the minestrone soup which is quite watery. I received five good size ribs, fall off the bone. 1/4 chicken, your choice of dark or light meat. I prefer the dark meat since Ive had the white meat before and sometimes it dry. And Bettes famous pesto is always good! Always served with bread and butter. Quite a bit of food. I brought home a small doggy bag. I also ordered a dessert to go. Im kind of Italian custard. No, not tiramisu. Overall five stars tonight!
