25 Best Seafood Restaurants in Lubbock

“I love this place!!!! Recommend 10/10“

“A cozy little restaurant packed with big flavors! Their ceviche is absolutely delicious and doesn't have that weird fishy smell or after taste. The staff is very kind and prompt and did I already mention how amazing the food was??? Definitely give it a try if your in the area!!“

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

“They slammed tonight & we're still getting everything ready & out & we're awesome..... so nice !!!!!“

“It was a great experience food and service was awesome amazing. I definitely will be back.“

“We had the best meal and wonderful service! This is absolutely the most excellent filet in town! The table side bananas foster are a real treat! We will definitely be back soon.“

“If there’s anything that is as filling yet light on the calorie scale as salad, it is ramen. A hearty bowl of broth, noodles, protein, and veggies leaves you feel like you ate a ton, yet in reality, it’s just the north doing all the heavy lifting.

And thanks be to the weather Gods for an overcast day—finally!—after an interminable heat wave, a bowl of piping hot ramen just sounded good. I don’t have to wait for winter to eat what amounts to an amazing bowl of soup.

A successful Google search yielded Yanagi on the far south side of Lubbock, yet another city in this region that is growing toward the prevailing wind. It’s a tastefully decorated restaurant with modern sensibilities, although the Buddha in the corner did not go unnoticed.

I opted for the Vegetable Ramen Bowl. It’s built on a base of vegetable broth, and filled with a serving of tofu (14g of protein if you are counting!), bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, edamame (more protein!), sweet corn, and spinach. The noodles (wavy or straight, your call) may push you into carb no-no land, but if you’re not counting carbs, it’s all good. Besides, you can burn them real fast with a good workout.

My bowl was just as I like it—steaming hot, enough to activate the sinuses. The spice level was on the mild side, so don’t worry about burning the roof of your mouth. It was pure taste sensation, and if proper etiquette didn’t dictate otherwise, I would have lifted my bowl to my face to finish the last few drops.

It was that good.

The Place was busy on this Friday lunch hour, and rightfully so. Service was fast for those on a time budget, but if you’re just plain starving as I was, I was thankful. Get in here. This place deserves every one of its Google stars.

Vegetarian options: It’s easy to build your ideal vegetarian or vegan ramen bowl here!“

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

“Once we walked in, Jamison was fascinated by the chairs, the smells, he asked questions a mile a minute. The wonderful girl taking our varying orders had and kept his attention, he’d smile over at her when she wasn’t looking and I’ve never stepped into a restaurant where I’ve felt at ease, until here. My mom, brother, kiddo and me had varying orders that were absolutely spot on, and we’d babied and cleaned the to-go containers until they fell apart.

If you’re in the mood for something different, this is the place to go. Also…brownies…TO DIE FOR. Now he won’t eat mine ? it’s their fault but I’m not mad

Parking: Unlike some of the other parking lots this one isn’t so cramped and we loved it.

Kid-friendliness: Staff loves kiddos and making sure they enjoy the experience too.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is enough space to move and be comfortable in here.“

“All you can eat shrimp! Hell ya, I can eat me some shrimp and then more shrimp. This meal was awesome. Thanks Red Lobster.“

“This place is great... the food (Shrimp & Catfish w/ Okra & Hushpuppies) was excellent... a dry, not greasy, fry. I prefer the front (smoking) room. It was a better vibe with more of a locals feel. The back (non-smoking) room was brightly lit, but more of a younger crowd. I don't live in Lubbock, but if I did, they'd know my name.“

“Beef enchiladas covered in queso sauce. So delicious ?“

“This place was cool. It's nice to run into little healthy establishments like this. Food was prepped, as stated, made to order. It was tasty, but I think the service was lacking a bit. Girls just had their heads buried in their phones. But other than the phone addicts it was a nice place to try.“

“River smith’s catered lunch for our church family today. They did an amazing job. The food was so delicious, the staff were helpful and so kind and they handled a huge crowd with grace!“

“Any time that you can leave a restaurant full, happy and with some food to take with us, well that's a good meal. What started off as a slow service and possibly disappointing meal was quickly turned around by the manager/bartender on duty. The food was really good, very well priced and the restaurant itself was very clean and comfortable and dare I say it- a really good deal and strong value for dinner. I had the 10oz sirloin. It was lean and meaty and perfect. The Aspen Grill Chicken salad was big and generous amounts of chicken were given. The kids meals were also great value for money. We don't live here in Lubbock, but would definitely come back if coming through town and we needed a sit down meal.“

“Drink at Lone Star Oyster Bar at 58th & Slide Lubbock, Texas. They have been shucking’ since 1985 and have great servers especially Beautiful Jeremi, sweetest bartender in Texas! Drop in for cold beer, great music, oysters & more. Don’t forget to ask about their daily specials. Find your Lubbock Shuck Buddy. #RodeoMafiaApproved“

“Great food and great service. Really enjoy it!“

“We ate here foe the first time tonight. We'll be regulars. We sat at the bat instead of waiting on a table. Destiny and Hailey the bartenders rock. Not only did the serve our drinks they got our food orders promptly and made sure we were taken care of. They rock.“

“Steaks are tender and full of flavor!’ Waiters are friendly“

“Stopped by for some breakfast with my family while visiting and I must say everything we ordered was great! Menudo and barbacoa were on point! Very good and not greasy at all. My favorite was the pancake breakfast ? The pancakes are so light and fluffy! Absolutely amazing!! Will definitely be back.“

“My favorite restaurant for authentic Mexican food in Lubbock; their seafood dishes are out of this world!This eatery is like walking into a beachside, complete with lovely nautical decór. It's lovely to look around and see the soothing blues and weathered beams ?Highly recommend for Oaxacan, Jaliscan, and other Mexican regional dishes! Everything is delicious!“

“It was very delicious and the service was amazing“

“Great place great food good service“

“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.“

“Best out of the 3 locations. Young ladies very friendly fast, and efficient. They gave the best customer service. Food was cooked to order, hot and fresh!!“
