“I had a great time here. My friend from Amarillo (where I live) mentioned the Chef was a James Beard Finalist.

This is probably my favorite dining experience I've had in the Texas Panhandle.

The food was very unique and creative, with a lot of personality.

The staff was ubiquitous, helpful, well dressed and attentive. This is some of the best service I’ve had at any restaurant anywhere in a long time.

Service in the Tx Panhandle is a missing art so it is refreshing to see an entrepreneur/artist who knows how to create it.

The food was great. The agnolotti was probably our favorite dish but they were all great.

We had the:
Desert salad
Agnolotti
Brisket Lamb
Antelope

I also ordered the Yuca (not yucca, that’s the local agave looking thing) fries to get a few more carbs.

Cocktails were great and so were the desserts (buttermilk pie and kakawa drink)

The price point seems high but honestly, any fine dining pushes $80 per person at this point. For a bit more you get artistry and much more thought and intention.

The portions were well sized as well. This was not a fine dining experience where you get 3 slices on a plate. The salad was very ample and was a great split with me and my gf.

The mains were perhaps a bit small given our daily notions of size and quantity but with the butter and richness of everything else it still worked well.

Another positive: I left feeling satiated and full but not queasy or overdone.

I find so many fine dining experiences ply you with heavy wines and heavy food and sugar and you feel like your taste buds were used at the expense of your body.

This was refreshingly not that experience. I felt the food was very flavorful but without being overbearing. Basically you could taste both the flavor as well as the restraint in the food which is rare.

I’ll definitely be back“

“I have enjoyed the food and prices for many years. Covid took the salad bar away. But the daily specials are great home cooking. Chicken fry, hamburger steak, and roast is my favorite. My friend says the best catfish Friday for 100 miles. Best burgers around lubbock Tx. The employees are nice and the owner is a sweetheart. Everyday the elders gather here for coffee and talk about ranching and life! HOMETOWN GOODNESS WITH REAL FOOD!“

“Spur of the moment decision to stop in. I had a work friend who had a mustang in the car show so my son and I stopped by. We are huge car lovers. They had some awesome cars on display. We hadn’t eaten all day so we decided what the heck, we might as well. I got the Philly and he got one of the burgers. Legitimately the best Philly I have ever had. I got pepper jack cheese instead of Swiss and it was so good. We watched some football and pigged out. The service was pretty good. Had to wait a little long for the final check up to ask for the check and she didn’t refill my son’s tea but the food was so good we weren’t that bothered by it. Would be a really cool place to visit again. Lots of tvs, big seating areas, and just cool nostalgia pieces all around. Oh and it was under $30, no alcohol. So really worth it!“
