Restaurants in Lubbock

“Brittany was very nice and helpful love coming to Outback”

“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.”

“One of my favorite places in town!”

“I went to celebrate my recent birthday. I got the Jap-Chae and Tteok-kkochi. These and the sides were all delicious. The music and cultural heritage diplat of South Korea is beautiful. And the hosts are so friendly and gracious. I will come again!”

“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!!!”

“The first time I tried it was when I got some cupcakes for my daughter’s birthday! I continue to go back as the cupcakes, cookies, cheesecake bites, and even gelato are good! I have yet to find a treat that isn’t delicious. I think my favorite is the red velvet cupcake but all compliments to everything we have tried.”

“Kobe was the best. She's the reason we came back so soon.”

“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!”

“Cast iron grill has a delicious ? breakfast and delicious ? lunch and amazing desserts, and the staff always has amazing customer service ? I highly recommend cast iron grill if you want some delicious food ?”

“This is one of the best steakhouses in Lubbock hands down. And the cheese melt is so good.”

“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.”

“Best egg rolls ever and the main meal was delicious along with excellent service.”

“Thank you Chef Antonio. That was simply Amazing! I enjoyed the Sotol Salmon and Shrimp. The orange and grapefruit salad underneath was delicious and refreshing too. It would be a crime not to enjoy it as it pairs perfectly with the meal. If you happen to get Shelby as your server, you’ll enjoy the perfect meal. Mine was finished off with the key lime pie. I’m one happy patron!”

“Gold Stripe provided a coffee/latte bar at my daughter's wedding. It was a hit!!! Great coffee and fun baristas!”

“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.

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.”

“great place great food good prices friendly staff”

“Whataburger better than In-N-Out hands down!!”

“raw chicken sandwich, manager wouldn't give a refund, so disappointed”

“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).”

“luv da burgers and fries”

“The food absolutely spot on delicious! The tacos are 🔥 fire!”

“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.”

“My husband had the vegetable soup and said it was the best ever so he went back and ordered another bowl. I had the chicken tawook platter with salad. I loved the garlic sauce for the chicken. The chicken was tender and plentiful. The salad dressing was so tasty.
We were passing through Lubbock and looked up Mediterranean food. We were not disappointed by the food, service nor atmosphere and will go again on future trips through Lubbock.”

“Best fried chicken I’ve had in years. Excellent sides. Friendly staff”

“Amazing fried chicken, incredible staff and very clean establishment! Will come back! Highly recommended! The Honey Bee sauce is perfect amount of spice and sweet!”

“Everytime I go to Happy's I get the best customer service and the drinks and snowcones are amazing. I'd like to also say a worker named Addi at the one in wolfforth was was so nice and welcoming.”

“Staff are cheerful, fast, and know regulars by name”

“Great place with a great atmosphere for the family or just with friends. They have a bunch of tvs all over to watch the available games. Great beer selection and food is always on point”

“Nashwell Cafe is always my first choice to come to get out of the house and get some work done. The local art decor, the variety of eats, and the tea is a favorite of mine. I enjoy the lemon and ginger tea with honey. The sausage rolls are absolutely heavenly!”

“We had a GREAT time without kids. We waited patiently in line like normal people, we were offered samples, we talked with other customers. It was awesome!”

“Love the Shrimp and Grits taco!! Grab a piece of the red velvet cake too!!!”

“This place has the best red beer we come at least once a week”

“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 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!”

“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.”

“Had a great time! Service was awesome, the food was delicious and the live music by West Texacans made it a great night!”

“The best service and fresh food. Waiter was phenomenal. Highly recommend!”

“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.”

“Sooooo good! The staff was so incredibly nice and accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious and the desserts…..OH MY! We will definitely be returning again and again and again!”

“Allison did an out-of-this-world job on our wedding cake! The design was exactly as requested and absolutely perfect. I have never heard so many compliments on how wonderful the cake tasted—many guests even said it was the best cake they had ever had and wanted to know who the bakery was. The cake was delivered ahead of schedule, beautifully executed in every way. You truly cannot go wrong with Simply Decadent Bakery. Don’t hesitate to order, even though they don’t have a storefront—you’ll be thrilled you did!”

“Hands down the best burger and onion rings in town and the staff is always pleasant and friendly! Prices are definitely affordable! This will definitely be the place we go when we want a good dang burger!!!”

“Muy rico el pan dulce, y el lugar muy limpio,y muy buena atención recomendado ❤️”

“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!”

“Thai Thai owners/operators have created and shared with our Lubbock community their fresh and delicious Thai cuisinev for several decades! They are stand outs!”

“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.”

“Friendly place, great bartenders/waitresses. Live music.”

“Music too loud to communicate with staff without shouting or repeating”

“Totally enjoy their beverages especially when in company of my DEAR Friends!! Staff are friendly and helpful! Highly recommend!! :)”

“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.”

“VERY GOOD FOOD. IT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE FOR ME AND MY WIFE”

“Never had Korean corndog before so I decided to give this place a shot. Half Cheese & Half Beef was good, especially with the cheese, but the sausage didn't taste the best. It wasn't raw or anything, just the brand I guess wasn't the best. Overall it was good.”

“Absolutely Fabulous Wine!! Come try a glass and take a bottle home!”

“The Chicken is very delicious”
