Stone Hearth Indian Cafe - Waco

Popular Indian food restaurant in down town Waco on the courthouse square. Friendly helpful service (Indian counter person who knows the menu). Choice of “heat/ spiciness”. I like their butter chicken but today tried lentil makhani over rice Umm.

The chicken saag is so delicious that I don't even mind that the total never rings up the same. They should probably fix the prices on the menu but holy smokes, it's easily best meal I've ever had in my 23 years of living. Love this place!

I used to come here all the time and it was one of the best places to eat in Waco, what happened??? They were out out of all their cold drinks, out of several dishes, they'd stopped offering some of their dishes (but left them on the menu), and neither of the guys working knew how to make Masala chai tea. The mango lassi is nothing like it used to taste. Food quality is still high, and portions are large, but it took 39 minutes to get after ordering; it never used to take so long! And I watched as other people came in, ordered after me, but got their food before me! And no, that was not someone picking up an online order. Worst of all, I got really bad food poisoning immediately after eating here and spent the rest of the day in a bathroom. Please update your menu, train your staff better, and do something about running out of ingredients. I used to love coming here but now it just makes me sad ?

This place was amazing! The staff were super friendly and chatted with us for a while. I'd never had Indian food before and it was amazing from start to finish. We got some tea, the sampler and order of butter chicken, and it was all some of the best food I've ever had. I particularly liked the rice, and the sampler platter, but it was all delicious!

Food tastes fine with good proportions. If you order pickup, expect to wait. If you order delivery, don't expect your order to get delivered. Whatever is going on between them and delivery.com is not working, and two missed deliveries is not acceptable. Interactions with whoever looks to be in charge* have not been pleasant. Talking with his employees is better.If they fixed service, I'd go more often. As it is, just trying to get food on time from them is frustrating. I don't have time to wait around 20 min to 2 hours for my food if I order ahead.
