    Fried fish kids meal. Missing jello.
    Liz I.

    We went for lunch, and my daughter enjoyed a free kids meal, I asked for jello several times for the kids meal and was told they didn't have any or they don't know. My daughter loves jello, we also noticed they were missing many items at the salad bar, and did not refill the salad bar right away, customers were clearly upset. My daughter was also upset and almost had a temper tantrum ( child is only 2 yrs old) because I promised her jello and they didn't have any. Some ofstaff seemed overwhelmed and unhappy. Our waitress was very polite and sweet she was a great help to us, she was a young lady with long brown hair. We really enjoyed our food today. And I also got a free dessert for my birthday. I enjoy being part of the Luby's club online and getting freebies. Definitely, coming back soon for some more yummy food.

    The place looked clean and the staff was nice. Stopped in and got a Togo meal. Was in the mood for a hamburger steak but walked out with a chicken fried chicken. Becuse the steak looked dry It's over salted which is a shock becuse it's an old persons restaurant. The mashed potato's are blah and they are dry without the gravy but the Mac n cheese is the best thing on the plate. Overall. Not bad but wouldn't order anything but the Mac in cheese again

    Fish, yams and mash potatoes

    Good Ole Lubys. Never had a bad experience at any location, but I hate barely seeing places like Lubys around. I prefer to eat whole meals, rather than the typical fast food joint. Lubys fish has never let me down. Yams taste like my granny yams with the pecans and added marshmallows, and the mash potatoes and gravy is good as well. This location can get fairly busy, but the service has always been great and I've left satisfied every visit.

    I really want to write a love letter to Luby's, but I can't. Chances are if you're reading this review, it's because you've never actually been to Luby's. Which means you didn't grow up in Texas. The Cafeteria restaurant is a Texan institution. It doesn't have the same glory as Tex Mex, Mex-Mex, Vietnamese, Steaks, and Barbecue. But a solid cafeteria can deliver home cooking (at an industrial scale) that it's hard to find elsewhere. There used to be several competing chains of Texas style cafeterias. Not any longer. I just happened to be driving by this location and got a hankering for Chicken Fried Chicken. CFC? It's a chicken breast made in the style of Chicken Fried Steak. CFS? Chicken Fried Steak is our interpretation of Wiener Schnitzel - Breaded Veal Cutlets - where the veal is replaced by beef. CFC + Yams + Macaroni and Cheese (White cheddar, please) + some Iced Tea = happy camper. Luby's rendition of CFC is really good. Right amount batter, good white gravy. The Yams were actual yams, not mashed sweet potatoes, and the Mac and Cheese was on point. Service wise, my waitress refilled my ice tea quite regularly. Decor and Ambiance - Luby's has certainly updated. The Luby's of old was a dark, maroonish, cordoned off image of the 70's and 80's. The new Luby's is the exact opposite. Bright and cheery, open spaces, lots of light, and looks like they imported some staff from Chick Fil A. Lots of families, older folks, and even some young people in the place. Although I very much doubt that the Hipsters will "discover" it. I dropped about 12 on the meal, and was very satisfied for it.

    Baked almondine (fish) w/mac & cheese, green beans, root beer, jalapeno cornbread, and mashed potatoes (~$14)

Don't get me wrong, this is a fairly typical wings/sports bar, but it's a fun atmosphere and tasty foods There is plenty of bar food and drinks to choose from. There are TVs playing sporting events on all the walls. The seating area is has plenty of tables and is relatively spacious and inviting The staff was helpful, friendly, and professional. Our food came out relatively quickly The menu offers plenty of appetizers, wing options, and other bar foods. The wings come either battered or non-battered. There's also pasta, pizza, and a variety of other dishes you might not typically find at a bar. The drink menu also offers a wide variety from beers, to classic cocktails, to more signature drinks The food isn't amazing. It's bar food, but it'll hit the spot Some tips: If you're in a big group you might have some people get their food a bit before others depending what is ordered. Also, the fries and onion rings options are BIG. Even a regular can probably feed a few people, and you can even mix and match. There's family deals for people who want a lot of the same thing like wings and chicken tenders Cheers!

    Limited Pleasure!…read more Allow me to start off by saying it was delicious fulfillment and they never seem to fail. This location near the Baybrook Mall is perfect for shopping and dining. Plenty of room and fast service. The severs are amazing and work to get it right for you everytime. The noise level is always pleasant and you can actually hear the music as well. First up is the Farmers Market Soup. Initially, I thought a cup of this would suffice and I was gravely mistaken, so I ended up ordering a bowl, after finishing the cup. Simply said a sweet potato has been transformed into an such an array of flavors that your palette begs for more. Next up will be the Fire Roasted Veggies, who stand firm and flavored coming straight from the grill to you plate and then your table, only to be found by your fork to be appreciated by you. However I cannot leave out the chili sauce they are layered in with a hint of spice. I need this recipe. OMG! Last up will be My Specialty, a small amount of the soup accompanied with the veggies will encourage your taste buds to sing for more. Amazing location and service. The prices are bad either. Unless the menu changes at least one of these will be in my order, if not both. Bye ~ Bye !

    I am writing to share feedback regarding our recent Valentine's Day dinner at this Whiskey Cake. We…read morehave always enjoyed dining here until this dinner date we experienced. Although we understood it was a busy holiday evening, the overall service felt extremely unorganized. It was very apparent that employees were rushing, and the atmosphere felt chaotic rather than coordinated. My drink was made incorrectly twice. We ordered the same dishes we typically enjoy, but this time the plate presentation was noticeably different and appeared rushed, as if the food had simply been placed on the plate without care. Additionally, we chose to take a slice of cake to go instead of dining in for dessert, yet we waited over 25 minutes just to receive it. And while I waited that long no one checked in with me they just stared at me. Unfortunately, what we hoped would be a special Valentine's dinner date turned into a very disappointing experience. We have always held this restaurant to a high standard, which is why this visit was so surprising to us
