By 14 oz. NY Strip Steak Lunch $35 on Thursdays
Brittany H.

Return visit which was very pleasant. Special thanks to Marissa who has a proactive solutions after a faulty experience with my leftovers from the previous day. Which was a 1-2 star rating from service, but the Denver roast dish was 1 out of 10 highly recommend! Today Sam L and Monica were excellent! I definitely appreciate the flow of communication. Monica informed me of Thursday specials. Every Thursday is steak night! 12oz NY strip for $35! Served with potatoes and asparagus. Flavor was very pleasant. I didn't like the shoulder cap of fat. I opt for the Denver dish again. Which forever is grand slamming. Only flaw besides some fat was that the kitchen was a little stingy with the mash potatoes tonight. Not enough to really accommodate the extra love of sauce and roast. -5 Which last night was flawless, the mash potatoes were my favorite, it just really ticked me off that the waitress threw trash in my plate when I was boxing to take it home. She didn't even bother to ask if she could pick it up. (I was aware they were closed, I was departing, and the table of the 4 loud mouths were completed and still were there to disturbed the peace with loud laughs and talking. ) As a first impression it wasn't the best, but the solution was acceptable and pleasing, for me to return and explore the menu and special day's deals like Monday's burger days and Thursday steak specials. -2 The bottom of the bowl didn't feel clean on both days, which is very off setting to a lady who only eats from her own personal silverware/flatware.

Complementary Chocolate Dipped Strawberries  This was a nice surprise

We went for Valentine's Day and had an 8:00pm reservation. We were sat right away and greeted within 2 min of seating. Service was impeccable and taking care of us tonight was Olesia. She was very attentive and courses were served in an appropriate timing, that on a holiday was unusual and noticed. They did not rush you in and out just to fill the tables. We started off with the Crab Cakes. Very nicely done and premium ingredients. Entrees includes Denver Pot Roast and the Redfish Pico. Both were excellent choices. The redfish was a smidge overcooked for my husband's taste but accompanied by the garlic mashed potatoes it balanced out. The Pot Roast was 10/10. Believe me we had leftovers to enjoy for another meal. Then she asked about dessert and brought the menu. After several minutes of deliberation we opted for the Strawberry Cream Cake-but TO GO. To say the portion sizes were large is the truth. They also in our take home bag included 2 complimentary Chocolate Dipped Strawberries since it was Valentine's Day. Overall, it was a great experience and we enjoyed the ambiance very much. They had it decorated for the special day and it was a very welcoming atmosphere by all the staff.

Shrimp Lunch
Kelisha D.

Service was prompt and professional. Pricey but not disappointing. The Chile shrimp was delicious. I took advantage of the $25 lunch special. The bar tender and server/cook were so nice I'd go back just to visit, honestly. I enjoyed the professional environment as well as the food.

Food was so good! My husband and I have gone for a date night and we have also been with family. My husband likes the burger.

Coconut Cream Pie- Chocolate graham cracker crust, whipped cream, shaved coconut
Rachel M.

Our Ladies Dine Out club really enjoyed our evening at Jonathan's the Rub! Our waiter was very attentive even to our large group. My food was delicious! I got a wedge salad to start and asked for an extra side of blue cheese dressing; that's the way to do it! I sampled the maple glazed carrots and onion rings from others. The onion rings were huge!! Very good and crunchy. My filet was cooked to perfection! I wanted to order the tiramisu but they were out so I chose the coconut cream pie instead and was very happy! This would definitely be the perfect place for a date night or any celebratory dinner. I'd love to try out their lunch menu as well. I'll be back for sure!

Bruschetta Caprese
Abria A.

I've been to this location as well as the Memorial location for Mother's Day/Father's Day brunch, lunch and dinner. The Memorial location is bigger and more modern, but the service and food at both are great. This time I went for lunch. They have a $25 lunch special where you get a starter and an entree. I think it's a great value for what you get. The servers are always attentive and personable. The bruschetta is amazing and the best I've ever had! This time I had the jalapeño fish with mashed potatoes. Both were delicious and full of flavor! The watermelon & cucumber salad is typically delicious and refreshing, but this time it was just ok. This is a must visit place! This location is more "homey" and the Memorial location is a lot more modern with natural lighting and more decor.

Jalapeño fish jack and coke

Took a quick video-game break and stopped by Jonathan the rub for a full meal, and it was outstanding. The flavors were rich and memorable--definitely something I'll be coming back to chase again. The bar area was very clean, and the bartender was extremely helpful in guiding me to the right drinks. Great customer service and a really satisfying experience overall. Highly recommend!

Ribeye  So so good
Diego M.

Service and good are great! Our waiter was great with attention and recommending food

Ceviche
Shatoyia N.

Updating in response to Sam...Yes, the 2nd sweet chili shrimp was ordered because it replaced the ceviche we sent back. My review is addressing the waitress not so much you. I didn't even mentioned how she was to apply a $50 gift card to each bill but instead she applied the $50 without actually deducting it from the bill. My mom had to bring it to her attention. We dine out at least 4-5x per week so we shouldn't have to ask for small things to be done to make our night special nor or we looking for anything free. All we ask for is great food and customer service. Honestly, you seem very remorseful and I will update my star based on that. A group of eight visited for my mom's birthday, but our experience was disappointing. My nephew found a blonde/brown hair in his pasta and while the manager offered to remake it seems like there was attitude from the waitress after that. The house bread bread and garlic bread are okay. The sweet chili shrimp were pretty good. The mac and cheese was dry plus lacking seasoning. We actually ask for a side of fettuccine sauce to put on the mac-n-cheese. The chicken fettuccine lacked seasoning as well. The Caesar salad was really good. After paying, we had to ask about birthday desserts, which the waitress confirmed were available--something she should've offered. Sitting by the kitchen was uncomfortable as there was always 2-3 girls standing there staring while speaking Spanish. After awhile it was awkward and we felt like we didn't have any privacy. Overall, the food and service were less than mediocre, and we do not plan to return.

huge desserts! tasty
Kristen N.

First time here and went for lunch with friends. We were all very pleased with our meal choices. They even have a 2 course lunch menu for $25 and a full selection to choose from. Portions are fair and the food was good. Our server was also very good! kudos

Nhi T.

Went for lunch and was pleased with their generous portions and excellent service. We got the blue burger and the blackened shrimp tacos. Both came with a side of fries and were pretty standard dishes. (6/10) The shrimp tacos were exactly what I wanted for a light but filling meal. The staff is attentive and there pertly of parking on the side and in front of the restaurant.

Is Cioppino still in the menu?

Yes, had it there last week, it's excellence!

I know y'all used to be BYOB; I assume that's no longer the case?

Hi Georgia! The Original Jonathan's The Rub still is and always will be BYOB. There is a $20 corkage fee. Grab something from your collection and we'll help you pair a delicious meal with it.… 

Would this be a great spot for my honeymoon? My wife's a foodie we have 15 years together and we've eaten everywhere from Steak 48 to Brennans to Eddie V's and I want her to have something different. Yes or No?

No - food is great but atmosphere is older and close tables! Try Mastros! Heard good thing!! Or State of Grace!

The "Royal Hour" items I had were the 6 texas gulf oysters on the half shell, 3 Louisiana oysters and 3 Alabama oysters. The Alabama oysters stood above the rest, and its a must recommend! The Texas and Louisiana ones weren't bad, but its your typical ones you can get for a $1 each at other places. I also got the "The Oysterette" old fashioned, which is literally just a regular old fashioned but decorated by a twist and a blueberry to mimic an oyster, definitely dissapointing. I was probably expecting something that was a twist regarding oysters and a regular old fashioned. Either way, I probably will continue coming to Liberty just for their HH as its pretty solid.

Inside it's a nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it. I ordered a house salad for $9 to start and the Pasta Rosa entree for another $28. The salad arrived first with a generous amount of romaine lettuce with diced tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots and chopped eggs on top. With my chosen ranch dressing it was a good tasting salad. The Pasta Rosa dish had sliced Parmesan strips on top of penne with shrimp, crawfish and sausage for the protein with mushrooms and a tomato cream sauce. This meal initially tricked me. My first impression was that while there was plenty of protein the taste of the tomato cream sauce was lacking some flavor. I expected more. However as I kept eating and getting beyond the top layer of the food the flavor increased significantly. I think that the proteins caused the sauce in the lower half of the dish to create more punch. This dish got better and better and I changed my mind. It turned out to be a very good tasting and filling meal. Finally the table service was very good too. P.S. I also tried part of another appetizer which was the bar b q shrimp for $16. They were tasty. I like Rouxpour and would return. My only negative is that their prices are a little on the high side in my opinion.

There are several types of seating available. They have a large patio - one section covered, one section open. They also have bar seating inside, regular chairs/table seating, and chair with a half booth seating. We were welcome by many of the staff immediately when we entered. Very welcoming. They have sweet tea! I love sweet tea. :) My Friend had a Bloody Mary. They had a $5 special for drinks. We split the Buffalo shrimp and the Gulf Wedge salad. The Buffalo shrimp (8 to an order) came with celery and ranch for dipping. They were just like I remembered years ago from the Richmond location. I'm not usually a Buffalo sauce type person, but their shrimp with their sauce is the bomb! The shrimp are large, so the entree is great for splitting. The Gulf Wedge has crab meat, bacon, grape tomatoes, and a hardboiled egg. It also comes with red onion and blue cheese crumbs, but I do not like either of those, so I had those removed from my half. I also prefer ranch dressing instead of blue cheese dressing. The salad was a great addition to our shrimp. Very tasty and filling. Nick was happy to make the substitutions for me. Many restaurants have an issue with splitting dishes. I was happy RC, via Nick, did this for us. For these reasons, Nick made out with a 25% tip. I am always a 20% tipper, but good service will get you even more. Thanks, Nick! We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch, and we will not only be back, but we will tell others to go see you!

The restaurant sits on Wirt, just South of Long Point, and has its own private parking lot behind a gated perimeter. There is plenty of seating. They have tons of covered outdoor tables, indoor tables, booths, and bar top options. I also noticed there's a little turfed area for kids to play on the side of the restaurant, and the outdoor seating appears to be kid friendly, so bring the whole household. (minus the cat I guess) We came on a Friday and decided to split the Boiled Seafood Friday Special. We got a lobster tail, 2 blue crabs, 1 snow crab cluster, 1/2 lb. boiled shrimp, corn, 2 potatoes, and lemon garlic butter sauce for dipping all for $40. There was plenty of food to split between two people and everything came out great. I'm sure I'll be back to try out the menu staples, but that Friday special was a nice surprise! Service was very on top of our table. Our waiter came by constantly to make sure we have what we needed, helped with questions, and never let a water glass or a beer get too low. Overall, it was a great first visit to an old Houston favorite, and I'm sure we'll find ourselves back again soon enough.
