Yummy every time I'm here! Chili rellanos, fajitas and enchiladas are awesome! Favorite Mexican food place in Lubbock.

So I meet my parents on 04/23/2019 to eat lunch we we were served by Diana and she was the most horrible waitress I have ever had coming from another waitress she did not greet us like how we should be greeted be felt like an inconvenience to her she didn't get her order correct and then when we asked about if we got a senior discount because we have before in the past she said let me go get my manager she never refilled her water's she was just a very rude person the manager who was serving that day she was very rude and told my grandmother that she needs to order of the kid menu and was being very ugly to me and my family she wasDisrespectful and got in my face I would not recommend this place to anybody what is my favorite but never going back I will be speaking to the owner read more

It's Tex-Mex. What else can I say? But it was pretty good tex-mex. And there was a lot of it. Our service was nice and made sure we were well taken care of. Teas were refilled. Chips were replenished. And we each got our own salsa dish. The queso was also delish, but a tad thin. I had the flour enchiladas filled with beef fajita meat. BIG portions. I only got 2/3 through my first enchilada before giving up and putting the rest in a to-go box. If you're nearby, it's a great lunch option. But I wouldn't go out of my way for it. read more

The service was very good. Unfortunately I was not able to sample the beer menu. The food was better than average. Had the tamales and the flavor of the masa was very good. The chili sauce was average; a bit thick. The guacamole was average. The green salsa was wonderful and vastly improved the guacamole when mixed in read more

Garcia's has good basic mexican food. Since its in a strip mall, its difficult for there to be much atmosphere. Overall clean and presentable. Chips are made in kitchen and tasty. Hot sauce is good. Food overall good. read more

This is one of my faves when returning from the east coast. Great food and a nice atmosphere. Very similar to Leal's which is what I grew up eating. When they're busy it can get a bit loud but just focus on your plate and all is good! read more

Absolutely the best Tex Mex food in Lubbock. I had just about giving up on finding good Tex Mex in Lubbock until I found Garcias. Every other place was of fast food quality like Taco Villa,Taco Bell or Rosias. On the Border may be fair if they didn't ruin the food with too much chile powder. Garcias doesn't over wham you with it. Yes it's a bit noisy but tell me what restaurant in Lubbock that isn't? I have never found the service too be bad. Yes,some servers were better than others but never bad. Finding a parking space really close is usually hard due to the location in this shopping center but you can find one not far away. I find it hard now to go much longer than a week without my "Garcia Tex Mex Fix ". read more

Garcia's - Mexican Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

Not my favorite Mexican food. Their food is bland and nothing special. I've been many times with my in laws and I can't say anything good except that their salsa is pretty tasty. Their enchiladas were very unimpressive and felt like I was eating a taquito covered in tomato sauce. Our service is always slow, there's a lot of room for improvement here. read more

Awesome restaurant! Great food and atmosphere; especially for lunch! Had the #2 lunch special chicken enchiladas with rice and beans! Service is great and prompt with there food! Highly recommend! read more

Garcia's - Awesome restaurant to have lunch! Had the #2 lunch special! Great food and atmosphere! Highly recommend! - Mexican Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

This is a no service place. They will service you the lunch lunch for dinner prices. Check out the pic of the dinner plate that I ordered. I will not be back. read more

I love the food - very consistent. Stella and John both make it feel like home. I recommend the #4 with a margarita. It never disappoints me. read more

Having lunch at Garcia's was an unsatisfying and surreal experience. First, we waited almost 15 minutes for a server to wait on us, which seemed like a bad sign, but they were very crowded, so we decided to forgive this, and service did improve as the place got less crowded. Our order took a pretty long time to arrive (but again, they were crowded), but weirdest of all is that we had ordered fajitas for two, and we very clearly were served a single order (we'd seen someone else order fajitas for one and be served an identical plate). Our server and multiple others refused to believe that they might have made a mistake, and insisted on charging us the full amount. So we paid $25 for a single serving of fajitas. The food was fine, but by no means great. Chips were plentiful but had a weird floury aftertaste. Fajitas were fine. read more

Wonderful place to eat. Our waitress did a great job. We use to have one where we lived. Just as good as I remembered.

We go to Garcias a couple times a month or more. We always have a good experience. The atmosphere, food and service have always been excellent. I would highly recommend them in Lubbock. read more

I guess you have to ask for chips and hot sauce with to go orders now. I'll pay for chips, but not even a little complimentary hot sauce? Cmon! read more

This place came recommended from several folks so my husband and I went there for a date night. First of all, the chairs were uncomfortable and table small. There was a strong smell coming from the nail salon nearby that made my stomach churn. But since we had the good recommendations, we went ahead and ordered. When my combo plate arrived there was orange grease on the sides of the plate. Awful food. My poor husband had a fajita salad that was shredded lettuce with fajita meat (bones too!) and onions and peppers on top. We regretted eating it for sometime afterwards. You were warned! read more

Garcia's is a fairly reliable restaurant but tonight was below average. We ordered the chicken fajitas for two and the (2)beef enchilada and taco plate. There might have been a 1/2lb of chicken on the plate with onions and one tiny sliver of a pepper. The menu doesn't say meal comes with guacamole or rice so I ordered a side of rice. The menu also doesn't say you will get a small sliver of a pepper. Everything was hot on the enchilada and taco plate. My son loved it. Our beans were lukewarm with the fajitas. It is so disappointing to plan a night out and receive a meal that isn't worth the price. Getting like Orlando's where you charge for every extra thing then fall short on the items that are supposed to come with the meal. read more

I like my texmex. I'm picky. I don't waste time or $. This is my number 2 spot. Combo plate. The guacamole is the best in town. Sopapias are the best here too. A little hole I the middle of the pillow of love. Slip in the butter. Let it melt now. Then load in the honey. Yummmm yummm good. On a cold wintery day you can't bet beef or chicken enchiladas with 2 eggs over easy. read more

My wife and I had lunch here today. The service was terrible and the food not much better. I don't recommend Garcia's at all, there are much better mexican food places in Lubbock. read more

If you don't expect anything fancy you won't be disappointed. This is just good, "small town" Mexican food.

Food and service were terrible. Wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone!!! Received nothing but excuses from what we were told was the "general manager" We have eaten here before and it was great but everything has gone way down since then. read more

I am always pleased with the food I order. The staff are friendly and for the most part the service is good. During peak times there can be a wait but it usually moves quickly. The only thing I'm really not impressed with is their margaritas. read more

Wasn't bad, wasn't good. The waitress didn't know what tequilas they had available for a Mexican restaurant so that was odd. I wouldn't go back on my own but I wouldn't refuse an invitation. It was just okay, which for some isn't bad at all. read more

Eaten here for years; always consistent food quality, always good service. Yesterday's visit was an exception though. We were among the first customers through the door at opening. Enchiladas were tiny and dry--so dry they crackled. Burrito meat was tasteless and hard, beans so watery they required a spoon. Obviously food had been cooked hours before and was awaiting its first victims under a heat lamp. Oh goodness, Garcia's! You know better. You've been better. Thankfully the service was, as always, top flight. But, do the math, if the service was five star and I have given the visit an overall score of one star, how bad does that make the food? Yes, it was that bad. Please get back in the game guys. read more

Noisy., a little dirty, but fast service, food was very good, needs structure and a good manager

The food here last night was absolutely wonderful!! Im totally addicted now!!

Really good Mexican food. Used to eat here when they were in Colorado City. Only complaint I have is the tacos are greasy so they fall apart quickly. Excellent other than that. Really good service. read more

My parents love this place..but I can't see why. I'm not gonna say it was awful but it's definitely not what I was hoping it would be. The salsa is basically flavorless. And the food..well we had the Garcias special which consist of a taco, tamale and beef enchilada. It was sub par. The beans and rice were good but the rest was just not flavorful. I will say the service was good. Our waitress was on point and very friendly. Id say if you love Abuelos or any other watered down Tex mex you'd prolly like Garcias. read more

The food was good...very fresh and as good as any of the best text-mex I've had. The only complaint was very slow/poor service, which would not keep me from going back unless it is a constant occurrence. So for now will count it as an off day. read more

Service was alright. Friendly staff Food was bland. Not much taste. Enchaladas were mediocre at best. Would not recommend this place. Nor will I ever come back. read more

This is our go-to Mexican restaurant because it's close to home, easy to get into, and usually tasty. The only complaint I have is that the salsa is often too hot for me! I always get the stuffed sopapilla, which seems to be a unique-to-west-Texas thing, because I've never had it in other parts of the state. Service is usually good, quick, and friendly! read more

I don't understand why this place is popular. At this first visit we found the tacos an enchiladas as average as best. The Chicken sopapilla was more unique and well prepared. However, for more food the better value is Rosa's AND you get to pick your salsa heat. Here the chips are BORING and the salsa too hot for many. What really grossed us out as early diner were the filthy salt and pepper shakers and the way they stored extra salsa. They just sit a caraf of salsa out on a tray to serve to customers. Health regulations would require this to be chilled. Otherwise, staff were friendly and the other things seemed clean. However, one of us had to share a straw with two drinks. read more

Food arrived cold, more or less told TS. That's fine I don't have to eat there again

Poor quality food and horrible taste. I ordered fish tacos and my friend ordered the Mexican dinner. The fish tacos barely had fish and the little fish it had was old! I was shock that they would actually bring that plate to the table... My friend's plate was slightly better but the food was not fresh and rice was old. We both were really disappointed. Don't go to this restaurant and waste your money. read more

I love that they have chicken fajitas on the lunch menu. Service was good, the chips and salsa were ideal, and the fajitas were sizzling hot. The waitress was kind and kept my tea glass full. Mexican food on a cold day like today was a good idea! read more

We began eating at Garcia's before they moved into this building. I love the food and it always turn out wonderful! The only issue I have is the acoustics. It is very loud and it is hard to visit, but that is a small price to pay for the excellent food we get. read more
