In a viral TikTok video, a woman was proposed to at Waffle House, and her reaction has gone viral on the platform.

A TikToker named John Cox, filmed his significant other’s reaction to being proposed to at the Waffle Factory. 

He pans over the romantic display he’s created on the table, saying “Now look it takes a real man to make Waffle House, look baby, it takes a real man to make Waffle House romantic.”

“I just have one question: will you marry me?” he asks as someone serves a waffle to her off camera. She can be seen jumping in her seat with excitement. As she grabs the plate and makes it visible to the camera, a ring box can be seen on top of it.

“I will marry you,” she says, clearly emotional. 

He asks her to show the ring, to which she replies: “Yes oh it’s beautiful the waffle ring! Oh baby it’s gorgeous, you got me all vaklempty.”
