Got the grilled chicken breast turn out good and juicy very satisfied. Salad bar was also fresh and good. Lots better than the last time I went. Service was also good. read more

I gone to Bryan's Steak's for a very long time and was excited after it rebuilt from the fire. However since the days of the fire the quality of the food has deterrent to the point of not going back. The quality of the steaks is chance and miss and the salad bar is mostly miss. Rating started at 5 stars over the years with 4 being a not so good. Now it's 2 stars on average falling to 1 star. read more

I have driven by this place several times over the last 10 years and always noticed that the parking lot was full so I figured it must be OK, right? Actually went there and ate for the first time today and I have to give it four stars. Would've gotten five stars if everything was free, but that ain't gonna happen. These are excellent tender steaks with a huge huge salad bar and all the sides like baked potatoes are fries and an incredible reasonable prize. You can get a top sirloin for just $16 or a sirloin for two for $32. And to top it off, they even have ice cream soft serve out of a machine that you dispense for yourself. Yes this is not a fine dining experience but it's a hell of a good value for anybody looking for a good steak without dropping 50 bucks. And their own steer statue is out front so you can't miss it. I'm a fan and will return the next time. I'm in Lubbock. read more

The Spaghetti was a 5/5 Star and so was all the other food like the Steak Fingers, and their fries and rolls were cooked to perfection! The staff was very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. I like the salad bar which also is where I got the spaghetti from. They have 2 menus, old paintings and also the Cowboy Amendments! read more

Definitely a must-try local establishment with a West Texas feel. Steaks are solid with limited but good sides. An ample salad bar provides a good starter to the meal. (The deep-fried okra is an excellent touch.) Free soft-serve ice cream rewards families for dining there. Wait and bus staff are quiet but attentive and helpful. read more

Pretty good. Lots of salad buffet options along with sides. Would return. Very nice staff.

Great food and prices. Not a high priced steak house! Giant salad bar is worth the visit! Staff is great! read more

This review is from December in 2023. Okay, so, the food here is pretty good. Had a chicken fried steak and it came with two sides, bread, and was delicious. My girlfriend had steak, and while she's very picky with steak, she was quite impressed with the seasoning and price of the ribeye. The amount of food for the money cannot be beat, and it's actually pretty darn good food. Now for the bad part- we waited in a line for about 40 minutes and someone threw up (it was not cleaned at all) and the smell of people in line was incredible. There were people coughing, the walls were sticky, I'm not sure what exactly I was expecting.. I mean I'm not expecting an atmosphere or decorum like Las Brisas for the money, but c'mon, can we have a bit more class? Can't blame the restaurant for certain humble clientele, though -- Just probably not where you want to take your gf for date night. Honestly it probably just means the prices are as good as they look. Just wish that someone cleaned up the stuff on the ground because it was gross. Regardless of this setback, the food was great, the servers were very efficient and kind, and the prices were excellent. Parking will be hard so make sure to account for getting there a bit early! Just based on food alone, this place is worth coming back to. We'll probably try again once the hype from the reopening is gone and people aren't flooding into it. read more

This is the first time we've been back since they re-opended. We got there about 6:45 and waited in line for about 45 minutes. We expected a long wait since they've only recently opened their doors again. If you're a local and wanting to come for a "good, but cheap steak", don't expect that anymore. The prices have raised to just about the same as any other steak place. Where you could get a sirloin for 2 for $21.00 after tax, is now $31.00 before tax. Ground sirloin went up to $13. I didn't see much difference in the remodeling, except the counter where you order and pay. The service was okay, it's a lot of young kids. The cashier seemed to be the only one in a good mood. It's set up like a fast food place, you place your order and pay for your food before you sit down, (it is seat yourself) We got the Ground sirloin, rancher sirloin, a belle sirloin and a cheese burger. Each meal comes with the salad bar buffet (except for the sandwiches) what use to be some great toast, is now just a roll. While eating the salad bar before our food came out, we found a hair in the macaroni salad, we let an employee know and all she did was bring us out a new salad plate. When our actual entrees came out, they were all good, except the belle, it was made well done instead of medium well. Regardless, we finished eating and left. Theres plenty of parking but if you can't find a spot in the restaurant parking lot, the pawn shop next door allows people to park there as well. read more

They now take credit cards. The food is still great and the service is wonderful. The restaurant is still clean after the remodeling.

I was hoping to have a good steak while passing through Lubbock, this place turned out to be a disappointment. For one, the steaks are rather small but then the prices are fair. When I walked in, the first impression I got was that it's much like a cafeteria or a buffet. You pay and order at the counter, cards are accepted now, then you take your tray and number, grab a seat, hit the salad bar, then wait for your order. The salad bar was pretty unappealing with lots of low-quality ingredients. When my steak came, it proved to be undercooked and underseasoned, necessitating steak sauce. The butter in the baked potato tasted artificial. Though servers were friendly enough, you didn't have a single one to whom you could leave a tip. I noticed that most diners left nothing and there is no way to add a tip to the card when you pay. While it wasn't a terrible meal, it wasn't one that beckons me to return. I'll eat steak elsewhere. read more

No frills, just decent food nothing special it is ok, cheap steak for a cheap price clean, decent service there's nothing much to say about Brian steaks if you're looking to eat a steak for cheap stick your head in, the door. read more

My first time there and my last time. The cashier acted like she didn't want to speak. We ordered our steaks medium well and they came out bloody and alot of fat on the steak. Very little meat. I'm vision impaired and the restaurant was very dark. Several employees almost ran into me several times and never said a word. The salad dressings aren't labeled so you just have to guess. read more

I apologize in advance to the fine people of Lubbock, but this was seriously the worst steak I have ever eaten in my life. I can't imagine where they buy their meats, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was out of the back of a beat up box truck in a strip mall parking lot with a sign proclaiming "50 Ribeyes for $20.00!" Just awful. Tasted old and weird, and the worst part was that I had to valiantly choke it down because my mother in law was paying for the meal and I didn't want to end up on her naughty list. To be fair, the salad bar and baked potato were decent, hence two stars. Service was awkward, the first server took our drink order, made the drinks, and then disappeared and left them sitting in front of the drink dispenser for about 10 minutes while we stared at them and considered just getting up and getting them ourselves; lo and behold she finally reappeared and brought them to the table. Another server brought our steaks and dumped liquid all over the table as she nearly dropped the plates off the tray while handing them to us. Maybe this place was badass back in the day? You can be sure it was an unforgettable dining experience. read more

For an aging man needing high protein Bryan's continues to make points with me. I always order the ground sirloin well done with salad bar. Sometimes I get an ice cream cone but not always. Since the rebuild they are using a type of styrofoam cup instead of plastic but it's no biggie. Seems that I couldn't take a drink with me in the old days about 50 years ago. Dang, these guys have been in business for more than 50 years and Bryan is one of the original employees when it was Goodner's Steak House. It was a good decision to keep the restaurant active. A legacy in Lubbock history. The biggest fiberglass Hereford bovine in the area! Permanently set in concrete in the parking lot, it used to be mounted on a trailer. In those days the kids at Monterey High School would "borrow" it to place in front of their school when they played Hereford Texas in football. read more

Food on a budget forsure! My steak was like boot leather and the salad bar had flies all over it. The atmosphere was smoky from the grills and it was not worth the money. read more

Owners are terrible people. A guest bought a steak for a homeless man and the owners threw it away and said he couldn't eat there. Didn't pay their contractor they did the remodel after they fire and just kept the insurance money. read more

Great experience! Haven't been here since it reopened. Food was good, service was great! And the salad bar yaaaaaaaayyyyyyy! I forgot had much I love it! read more

I would not feed This horrible food to the homeless. Service was sub par as well Save your money and go elsewhere

Visited as a meet with my nephews from KC. We are all mixed and that was immediately obvious that they weren't to keen on "our" kind. We're used to it, so sat to enjoy a meal. The food was far from enjoyable and the wait staff, headed by the boss' daughter, were rude! Don't waste your time on mediocre steak and a racist environment. read more

Meal was very good, first time in since they reopened and same old Bryans's!! We were well tended to and it felt the same as always. Like the ice cream cone as you are leaving. read more

I ordered the chicken tenders, baked potato, which comes with a salad bar. The chicken tenders looked like those from a box of Tyson pressed tenders. I was expecting real fried chicken nuggets. Potato and a great salad bar were eaten, and the "tenders" were fed to my dogs. I like to support local, but my main entree was way below average. The staff that was working the floor was very polite. read more

Food quality is good, but be prepared to stand in line a long time to order. You will probably spend more time in line than actually eating after your food is delivered to the table. Ordering is a very slow process as the person taking orders at the cash register has no sense of urgency. Very frustrating. read more

Awesome salad bar and Excellent service, but the meat is not the best!!! It is substandard in my opinion. I ordered the filet and it was tough and not what most people think of when you ask for a filet!!!! In fact, it appeared to have 2 different meats compressed into one. For sure it was not a filet by any means!!!! Other than that it is a family tradition place and I am glad itI is back serving the community ... if you want a good salad bar with lots of different items, go for it!!!! As far as the meat offered, buyers be aware.... read more

Pretty good place to eat, 10/10 for the price especially the salads bar. They have all the salads you'd want and even spaghetti. I got the rib eye and it was perfect. Little grill taste on the fat but still good. Especially for the price. Wasn't a huge fan of the waitress who sat me but every one else was nice. Definitely look forward to stopping by again when I'm in town. read more

Best Sirloin Steak EVER and all of Bryan's options are great. Salad bar is awesome. Owner is friendly and one of a kind! He loves his customers. Thank you from Brownfield. read more

Closed permanently. Lights off. Chairs flipped. Ladder blocking door. Definitely closed.

This place is basically a fast food steak restaurant. I would never recommend anyone looking for a real steak to eat here. Now if you just hungry and your choices are your local fast food joint or maybe a steak then you might want to stop. The unlimited salad bar has fake bacon bits and all of your normal fixings. So if you got kids they'll probably enjoy. All of your side items are also at the salad bar. The steaks that they serve seem like cheap cuts that they soak in a marinade for hours maybe even days. So don't expect to get your steak at the temperature you want because it's not going to show as most of the steaks have already started to break down with no pink left in the middle. It's better than your normal Piccadilly or all you can eat style restaurant but not much better. read more

Bryan's Steaks - a line of people waiting to order food - Steakhouses Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

Everything was good ! Service was good. Not too loud. Everything was fresh. Price was not too bad compared to other places

This place has THE best ribeyes! They're always so moist, soft and delicious. Even the fat on the steak is good! My only recommendation is to go and eat during the hours of 11 AM to 4:30 PM. Why? A very young crowd, like 15 year olds, work during the evenings and most of them look pissed off at the world every day! And they play on their phones. Which leads me to my next point of this review: THEY SPLIT TIPS! Which is a bummer if one person does an amazing job because they have to share it with everyone else and possibly people who don't put in as much effort. ‍ They accept debit/credit cards now too! read more

Great daily specials for real good prices. Delicious food! Great service! I would add pictures but I scarfed it down too fast. Yum! read more

My friends and I wanted to eat steak before leaving Lubbock, so we asked around for some good steakhouses and were recommended Bryan's Steaks. You really can't miss this steakhouse as the big cow outside of the restaurant will surely catch your attention. The prices for the steaks ARE really cheap, but I really think that that cheap price is reflected in the quality of the meat. Walking into the steakhouse, you'll see the interesting and really nice decorations that really give the steakhouse that authentic and homey feel. I saw a ton of locals and regular customers here, so that did reassure us that this place is quite popular. Ordering is done fast food style - wait in line until you reach the cashier. Place your order and you're given a number for the table and a plate for the salad bar. Steaks are all under $15. They also offer seafood or chicken. Each steak includes a baked potato, Texas toast, the unlimited salad bar, and use of the ice cream machine. Salad bar is quite extensive with a good number of choices. You can actually get full from just eating from the salad bar. They have the regular cold salads/noodles, vegetables like corn, cucumbers, even nachos, potato salad, etc. For the price, I do think the options are very good! So for the steak, I decided to go with the Southern Belle Sirloin ($9.10). My friend ordered the pricier ribeye while another friend tried the top sirloin. The ribeye did have the best taste among the three different steaks that we ordered - more tender than the sirloins. The belle sirloin wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't great either. I've had better and I've had worst, but for that $9.10 price and all that came with it - I'd say it was a really good deal. Judging the steak alone though, I don't think it was all that tasty and I probably would not return for the steak. Workers are super friendly and nice, going out of their way to really make you feel at home. None of us were in the mood for ice cream after we ate, so we weren't able to try their soft serve, but it seemed like other people really enjoyed it from what we saw. tl;dr - Overall, I'd give this place a solid 3 for the food quality alone, but because of the price and service, I'd give it a 3.5. The salad bar alone is awesome even though it can't compare to Souplantation. We definitely got a taste for how locals eat their steak, and I'm glad I got to try Bryan's out for myself. read more

Great steak, baked potatoes, and salad bar. Service was good there was a bit of a wait. Been around for years.

I was so excited to go back to Bryan's. Salad bar is still great. Steak was the worst thing ever. It seemed like it was boiled and then thrown on the grill just to get grill marks. It was grey meat. There was no rare, med-rare, medium about it, it was just boiled grey. Horrible. read more

This is my first ever review and I downloaded yelp specifically because of this place.. Easily the worst steak I've ever had. They say waygu melts in your mouth and that practically what this steak did. I might as well have been eating mashed potatoes with how mushy the steak was. A texture I'd never expect to use describing a steak.. On top of that it tasted like the frozen burger patties that people bring to the work potlucks. Service and prices were fine, just terrible food.. read more

This place hasn't changed in years, still has the big ass bull in the front of the building and still has the long line over the weekend. Steaks are good, salad bar is awesome. My only complaint is that they changed the hush puppies from the sticks to the balls. Free ice cream after dinner is a must! They finally accept debit cards!!! read more
