“Great food and excellent service! I brought my son and a few of his friends here for his 21st birthday, and we had such a great experience. This place is consistently awesome every time we go, and the staff always makes it fun. Highly recommend!”
“This is one of the best steakhouses in Lubbock hands down. And the cheese melt is so good.”

“We cannot recommend La Diosa Cellars enough!!!! Our all time favorite place in Lubbock!! We always say it is one of Lubbock’s best restaurants. It is one of those places that is always consistent, from the food all the way to the service! We always have the best service and the food is consistently great. If you haven’t had the opportunity to venture to this hidden gem I highly recommend you do ASAP!!🤩🍷”
“We absolutely love this place! I was able to reserve a big table for my best friends bday! Drinks are always delicious, and staff is always amazing! Thank you!”
“We have always enjoyed date nights here. This year we went for the Mother’s Day brunch and it was impressive. The execution was exemplary. To be able to dish out grade A dishes in a buffet setting is a challenge. Antonio and his team did this and made it look easy.”

“My husband and I were visiting Amarillo and Lubbock and didn’t taste African food for days. So we googled African food and ordered their grilled tilapia, okra and fufu . We also ordered their baked egg snack. Everything we ordered was just so delicious. I Wish I had googled them the very first day I arrived. I am lazy on making reviews but it won’t be fair not to make a review and share this with others who will be craving African food when they are in the Lubbock area.”
“Papa V’s has ALWAYS been a staple in our weekly household food. The BEST true Italian style pizza pies you will ever taste. The slices are SO massive you can only eat one. This is about them going ABOVE & BEYOND with customer service though!! We will continue to get pizza pies every week here as long as we live here!!!”
“Tried the wedding cupcake and cookie butter gelato. Both were absolutely incredible! The almond flavor was stronger than any cake I’ve had before, and the extra punch of flavor was much appreciated. The cookie butter was a perfect blend of silky gelato with bits of cookie crumbs for an added infusion of flavor. Both staff members were so welcoming and helpful. I highly recommend!”
“Bodine’s was great! A few friends and I went to Bodine’s and had a few drinks.l and had a great time. The staff were awesome and very friendly plus our glasses were never empty. They also had a great singer that sounded very good and was easy to listen to and have a conversation. When we left I was not paying attention and left my card and didn’t realize the next day which was on a Sunday and they were closed. I was able to email them from their website and they promptly were able to get back to me and get my card back. All in all, it was a great experience.”
“We celebrated tonight at West Table! The food was superb. The best food in town. My husband had never been and we just absolutely loved the vibe!!!”

“Well, I would have posted a raving review about J&B Coffee until the barista wanted to approach me and my service dog group to tell us that they “don’t normally allow dogs in” the shop. There were 20-30 people talking with grinders & other machinery going in a loud “garage-like” acoustics in this concrete floored building when my dog tried communicating with me with a single Woof. It was not 30seconds before the skinny female barista made it over for her admonition. Well, I’m thinking she could use some ADA training before she gets the place into trouble. Her and her cat can live a happy life together.”

“We have been going to this restaurant for years! This is our best restaurant in Lubbock! Mr.Walters ensures all guests are happy! I hope your restaurant will be a example of “Texas Hospitality “...and great food!”
“Great atmosphere!! Wish they would bring back the strawberry ale.”

“I ordered a 6" Black Forest Ham sub with southwest Chipotle dressing on their new artisan bread. The bread was a nice improvement and upgrade over their old bread. Ingredients were fresh, sandwich prep area was clean. Service was prompt and courteous. A nice change if your looking for something quick and you can have it anyway you like, that's the great part.”
“Me and my wife loved coming here for drink specials and then catching a movie. The food is great and the staff is very friendly. Sadly we moved away but will definitely be back for a drink soon!”
“Ok. IHOP is IHOP. The food is always consistently the same. And the service has always been decent.
But this time the service was really good. As soon as I walked in the door the host had a smile on her face. And not one of those smiles you can tell is fake. Turns out she was my server as well. Brianna was a great server with a great attitude.”
“This is definitely one of the top authentic Mexican restaurants in Lubbock. Each visit has blown me away. The carne asada fries (forgot to take photo) are something to die for. Piled completely full with meat, it’s enough food for two meals or perfect to share with a partner. Everything else I’ve had is also perfection. The owners and employees are the nicest people. Can’t recommend this place enough.”
“Server and food was fantastic, but I've never met such a rude hostess. She was a middle aged Hispanic lady. We had a party of 6 (3 were on the way) and she refused to seat us until our party made it. I also watched her demand guests to follow her and catch an attitude when they didn't follow (because she never addressed them).”
“I went and got scared because Bryan wouldn’t stop staring at me. I ended breaking my hand on the coke machine but Bryan if you are seeing this please return the things you took from me Bryan please I need my stuff that you took from me Bryan so please return them Bryan👍❤️”
“I recommend no one goes there because I want to keep it for myself it is a hole in the wall that needs to be kept just for me”
“I've never really had Indian food and I may have gotten here half by accident, but I'm super happy i did! The food is really good!”
“The guitar pasta and lavender brioche were the highlights of our evening. The main entrees were southwest themed during our visit. The antelope had great flavor, however the medium rare approach to the thick cut made it less enjoyable. The old fashion drink was well made. House red wine was local and enjoyable. Service was attentive during the course of the meal. I did notice the happy hour drinks were not discounted, so just check your bill before paying.
Parking: Parking is limited, Google did not take us to the front parking lot but to the back. Both seem limited, but there was a parking lot across the road.”

“Oh dang!! I ordered a lemon flavored Stitch inspired cake for my granddaughter`s birthday. It was delicious and decorated perfectly. The lemon was very subtle but definitely flavorful. I also ordered a dozen brownies and everyone said they were the best brownies they ever had... baked perfectly, thick, perfect chocolate taste, moist. I'll definitely be back as a repeat customer!”
“The Monomyth in Lubbock Texas: Nowadays I find myself in the Yee-Haw part of the state. That means that the coffee can double as paint thinner, and the coffee shops are designed off of prisons. Recently however, I had the chance to see an Don Giovanni in Lubbock Texas, where the person who played Don Octavio stole the show. He did nothing to help, and sang beautifully. Remarkable. While in Lubbock for my crossover episode with all the old Wesley +Laureen, we went to the Monomyth, a Coffee Shop. No only was the shop not a prison, but the coffee didn't come with its own chemical code. While that is all well and good, it invites something different to fill the gap, hipsters, and hipsters they were. Styled beards, flannel shirts, flared mustaches, light leather boots, jeans, and man buns. I felt as if I was behind enemy lines and it was difficult to get my bearings, so that I could order. I'm not fluent in hipster, but I can hold a conversion, so I was confident in my ability to order. "Should I do drip or bar" "We have a single origin Honduras on Bar" which caused Don Octavio's eyes to shoot out lasers and him to rip off his shirt revealing the Honduran Flag tatted on his chest. At least that's how I imagine he felt. "Sounds good, I'll have a latte" He corrected me, "You'll have a cap" And a cappuccino I had, and he was right it is what I wanted. I just didn't know. A near perfect barista experience where they can size me up and correct my order based on what they know they have and what they think I want and be correct about it. As for the drink itself, the milk was over steamed with visible bubbles, and while their was foam art it would have benefited from a slower initial pour. However, the espresso did a hard carry. The sweetness melded with the sour to make a thoroughly enjoyable drink. If I were to go again I would get just the espresso, the milk only took away from what I can surmise to be the unyielding power of Honduras.”
“The food was good and service was friendly. However there is one thing that needs to be addressed. When the cashier hands you the cups, she puts her fingers inside the cup. This is unsanitary. Please train your employees to handle the cups from the outside and NOT put their fingers inside the cups. I haven’t eaten inside the restaurant in awhile, but I usually place to go orders.”
“this place is spectacular in every respect for me, between an incredibly friendly staff that visibly work very hard, to exceptionally large portion sizes and incredible flavor for the price. I have never had an incorrect order or that wasn't hot and delicious. I'm constantly amazed every time I go, and despite the dining room being small, I prefer to actually eat there.”
“I love my Brewed Awakening. It’s the perfect start to every morning. The staff are always so friendly and really make a point to try and remember you so you don’t feel like just another number walking through the door. We had a company holiday party last year and the space was perfect for us. I highly recommend dropping by for a morning or afternoon pick me up.”
“First time experience: Service was amazing, food portions were generous, food was delicious.. Definitely will go back, staff was friendly and upbeat! .. Prices were really reasonable & the chef was entertaining! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I had a wonderful experience tonight with just a simple call in order.. Alyssa I believe was a manager working tonight and took care of a very small problem with my order in the perfect way.. The customer service is always great when we eat here!! Thank you to all the staff and cooks for your hard work and taking care of our food for my family..”

“Picoso’s is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. Being from the Houston area, I make it a point to come enjoy Picoso’s when I can. This time I ordered the Crispy Relleno. The queso and brisket was so good, it just melted in my mouth. The server was very attentive and super helpful. Another delicious visit.”
“This review is for the new Ramen and Sushi Bar on 98th and Slide. The service was great, and we were seated quickly. The food came out fast, and it was so delicious, and the presentation was beautiful! we've been waiting for weeks for this place to open. we were not disappointed! We'll definitely be back!”
“We had on unusual experience in that my dog got sick, diarrhea, and happened immediately when I was ordering. He had just been professionally groomed and was looking great! It was a huge mess and my wife called from the car.
Nick, who couldn't have been over 20 years old, was really professional and helpful at the front and let me borrow some paper towels, and was concerned and considerate. When I had to cancel the order on short order he was willing to do that, but the cleanup turned up to be not too bad (for a 130 lb Pyrenees) and we went ahead and got the pizzas anyway. The bad thing about the store is for some reason they don't think it's important to get the front door fixed and so for three months or so they've been dealing with this door. The location is great but the little mini strip mall is a little tight. I'm sure someone came into excited for their pizza which from the reviews seem to be well received. GET THE DOOR/WINDOW FIXED!! The previous location was more ideal and it's a trip to get across town to where this one is but it is well worth it!!”
“😍Lubbock Food Review: 😍 Jay and I went to Savage Tavern today and let me just say it was amazing. This place is said to have the best BRUNCH in Lubbock. There were about 10 things we both wanted to try, but we settled on a Bloody Mary and these two amazing dishes. I had the Avocado Caprese Toast with potatoes and he had the Texas Migas with queso! Yall! It was fantastic! The service was superior and it was a fun atmosphere. We sat inside but they do have a patio and we plan to go back this week for dinner. 🙌 So if you are looking for a great brunch place on the weekend or just a new place, give this a try! We were impressed and will be back! Thank you ST for a great first experience!”
“Please reduce the volume of the music. Since its opening last year, the early morning and late-night loud music has been difficult for the neghborhood. While it's certainly better than during the initial promotional month last year, it can still be quite loud, particularly louder on weekends, starting as early as 7 AM. Please keep in mind that this particular location is right next to residential homes, and the noise has been challenging for the residents. It has significantly affected the quality of life in my household and my neighbors. Many people I have talked to seem appreciate your products and service over the past year, but I kindly ask that you consider being a good neighbor by keeping the noise level down. My intention is not to hurt your review, not lowering my rating, but I wanted to communicate this concern.”
“Our waiter Dylon was fantastic. However - We made a reservation… for 4:00pm because our second option was 8:30pm. So we decided to go at 4:00 and take our time and enjoy our company. Then the waiter was sent over by the manager to let us know that we needed to leave because another reservation was coming in. Not a fan of that-especially making your employee do the footwork for her. I’m also in the service industry and I’d never do this to one of my customers.”
“Cagle Steaks & BBQ is a great place for those who love quality beef and grilling. The dishes here are meticulously prepared, from tender, delicious steaks to flavorful BBQ dishes. The cozy and friendly space, along with the enthusiastic staff, create a great culinary experience. If you are looking for a delicious and flavorful meal, Cagle Steaks & BBQ will definitely not disappoint you.”

“I want to update my previous review regarding my experience at Walk-On's. After initially receiving no assistance and feeling extremely disappointed by how the situation was handled, I was eventually contacted by the General Manager, Terence. Terence took full responsibility, apologized for the actions of the staff, and made things right. The missing birthday gift was addressed, and the resolution showed a level of professionalism and care that was previously lacking. While our original experience was frustrating and disheartening, we appreciate the GM stepping in to take ownership and follow through. We're glad the situation was ultimately resolved in a respectful manner.”
“How good is this place you ask? Upon opening the to-go container it was obvious why they made the Texas top 50. I litterly started drooling. My daughter saw it. I asked. Ribs with a soft sweet taste, fall off the bone tender, brisket cooked to perfection and full of flavor in every bite, turkey…well this gobbler would be proud to be served on any plate. Make the trip, it’s worth it. What creditability do I have for a food review you ask? …Well none, just like the rest of you. So let’s stick to the facts…it’s freaking good!”
“I FINALLY made it to Amicis Wine Bar on Friday August 8, 2025 and let me just say it was everything I expected and more! The couches by the fireplace with my girls was perfect to relax and unwind. The steak bites can NOT be beaten and the service was amazing! We relaxed with charcuterie, steak bites, and wine for about 3 hours! The owners are great people and checked on us while we enjoyed ourselves! We never wanted for wine or water! If you need a place to relax and unwind, definitely go to Amicis with your friends! ❤️”

“Chicken and fish are good. Greens were a bit salty, Mac was greasy and not cheesy. The best thing I tasted were the hush puppies(amazing). They charged a 43+% gratuity to our bill. Our food for 4ppl was $80+ish and the tip of $44 was automatically added to the bill. Idk how this works, but if I'd known I would have eaten else were. Food 5/10 service 7/10.”

“Went for a concert. First time here to be honest it was hella hot in there feels like no AC or AC not strong enough. But the bartenders are A-1. And friendly. But Even Tho it was hot inside the vibe and music was on point. Music was a lil too loud but it is what it is. Everyone there was having fun and a good time so made my experience much better. DEEBABY MS SALAZAR TOUR LUBBOCK 6-26-25!!!!”

“The best Thailand dishes in Lubbock, Thai Pepper offers a wide variety of Thailand dishes that Americans will enjoy. The owner, Nun, runs a fantastic restaurant with the most polite and helpful employees in Lubbock. The food is all delicious and I encourage you to stop by and try the Chicken Fried Rice or their Noodles Dish with Shrimp. The eggrolls and dipping sauce are delicious. Lubbock give her restaurant a try.”
“Coming home from the DMV I decided to get a quick bite and chose Taco Villa. I got a #6, 2 crunchy beef tacos and a 32 oz root beer, my husband wanted 2 soft beef tacos. They gave me enough mild salsa so I could smother my tacos but they were SO good, a nice, thick slice of tomato and shredded cheddar, oh, yum! I order for delivery a lot and will add this store, can't wait to try a taco salad if they have it.”
“All the food is always delicious. Possibly the best burger in Lubbock. Even folks who don't typically like Frito Pie, like Shotzys Frito Pie. Not a better French Dip sandwich anywhere. Meatloaf Monday is a favorite and you can only get it on Monday. Portions are large enough that my wife and I split them. I think the cooks name is Kayro. I would kidnap him if I were to open an eatery. Jaycee is an excellent manager and waitress, always has a big smile. All the customers always seem to have a great time. Hospitality is wonderful, great food and a great venue.”
