    See our trays never picked up

    So went to Luby's after church today with my wife and 5yr old. Everything started out as standard got our food and after we paid for it one of the staff offered to help us with one of the trays which we were grateful for. When asked where we wanted to sit my wife asked for a booth and the only one that was clean at the moment was a corner one towards the back. We sat down and started wondering if a server would come to get our trays but no one ever came. The entire 40 minutes we sat to eat. We noticed that every other table around us had servers coming up taking trays, offering refills on drinks and asking if they needed anything multiple times. Towards the end I told my wife we should lower the 8 dollars cash tip we got at the register to leave and at first we were going to leave just 5 but my wife got mad and left the 3 and then added another dollar (total 4 10%) because we never saw a server and were just forgotten. We've eaten there many times and never were forgotten. At one point my wife even went and got us refills on our drinks on her own cause she was tired of being ignored. The only time a server even spoke to either of us was when we got up to leave and by their cleaning station the one waitress from our section mumbled to her "Thank You". We've eaten at this Luby's several times as we come after church pretty regularly and never were treated like that before.b

    salmon

    I decided to eat something a little on the home-cooked healthier side. Decided on Luby's and was impressed by the salmon with fresh vegetables. Our waitress Hilda was very attentive and the manager Genova was also an awesome addition the the experience . all in all the food was above my expectations and the staff from the servers to the waitress and the manager created an awesome lunch with my son. I Felt like i had a good home cooked meal instead of a fast food burger and fries. thanks again for the great lunch and the friendly staff and clean restaurant..... until next time

    I really enjoy coming to this location! The food here is always hot and tasty. The chicken fried steak was a little on the room temperature side but, it was still tasty and crispy! The proportions that they give are great too you will definitely have enough food to save as leftovers ! The atmosphere is very family friendly too this is the perfect place if you want that home cooked style meal ! Also they give military discounts !

    All this for $22! Delicious blackened  tilapia étouffée with shrimp,

    Delicious food, great selection, reasonable prices. Who could ask for anything more? I sure wish we had these Luby's cafeterias in California where I live.(I always stop at them when in Texas though)

    I was just served a terribly tiny plate of food and charged almost $16 dollars. I ordered in the drive through and was truly shocked when I saw my plate. I have been ordering this dish for years and I have NEVER gotten a serving like this. This has to be some sort of joke! Is this the way they think they will build their brand and earn customers that return day after day? Hell no. This is the way you make sure people NEVER come back. This also did come with a piece of cornbread...but I would be embarrassed to serve this to a paying customer if this was my restaurant. I will never be back. I feel totally taken advantage of, and disrespected as a drive through customer. There is no way they are serving people inside pieces of fish this tiny.

And since i was not from here and i had some money to spend, I said YOLO. I ordered the peach cobbler waffle. It was a nice size waffle with a good amount of peach cobbler sitting on top. It was soooo good. You do not need sytup, it is a perfect combo. I also ordered chicken wings and they were delicious, perfectly seasoned. i had mac and cheese that was perfect. It's a huge restaurant and they have events that they host. That night they were going to have line dancing which is cool. Except I was leaving town that night so I was not able to enjoy. My server was Jay. She was super kind. The staff was kind. Bathroom was clean. Food came out fast and amazing.

Casual dining experience overall and not in a bad way. The food does take some time to come out and even if they are not fully busy, they do require your whole party to be present in order to be seated. But at least you get seated quickly once everyone is there. Forewarning: the portions are REALLY big and you will definitely leave full if you're not taking home leftovers. The fried chicken and cornbread were some of the best that we had in the Houston area. Some of my favorite sides were the mac and cheese (something about it is unique) and candied yams; very flavorful and would order again. The corn and okra succotash contained 95% corn and almost no okra so that was a bit of a let down but I still rate this place very highly. Service was great and the owner came to introduce himself to us. Everyone really wants their customers to enjoy the food and their time. Will definitely be back and glad I got to try it out!

Not one of the burgers came out at the right temperature. If you're going to ask us how we would like our burgers cooked the kitchen needs to make sure they cook the burgers properly. Anyway, I didn't even take two bites of my burger. My guests ate about half of each of theirs. The fries were kind of limp but tasty would be nice for them to be a little crispy.

    Well this is my go-to brunch spot to bring all my out-of-towners. I can't believe I don't still…read morehave a review posted in the system! Let me start by saying I've been here multiple, multiple times & I've never had any food items that weren't good. I always get breakfast (even if it's lunch time) so I don't know much about the lunch items. Not only is the food outstanding with a creative twist, it's consistent. Over the years, the place has expanded several times so now there is a decent amount of dine-in seating in addition to the outdoor seating. The place still stays packed but with their wait list in advance/text notification system & efficiency in seating customers, if there is a wait things move along smoothly. Additionally, anyone who is waiting knows it's worth the wait!! The service staff are friendly. The atmosphere is homey & they decorate for the various holidays & seasons. Owner/chef Lori is always walking around asking guests if everything is ok. On at least 2 occasions she happened to chat with me/my guest about some dietary restrictions & she whipped something up for us to try. My go-to dish is the harvest breakfast where you can pick 4 breakfast items from a list. This is a great way to sample more menu items. Here's my take on some of my favorites: - Sourdough pancakes are thin & really delicious. - Belgium Leige waffle is very sweet with the pearl sugar "nuggets" in them so taste them before you add a lot of syrup. - Scrambled eggs are well seasoned, not bland. - Avocado & tomato or the fresh fruit are nice light touches as one of the side item choices. - Fried chicken tenders are really good. Spice level 3 (medium) is not that spicy. It's flavorful. - Grilled chicken tenders are good. As much as I typically eat grilled or baked chicken, I allow myself to choose fried for these. - Grits are creamy. I get them with no cheese. I'm not a big grits person but I do like these! The menu is very extensive. It includes vegan, vegetarian, keto & gluten free. Is the breakfast a little pricey, the answer is "it's all relative." Sometimes it's just worth paying for a great meal. In case you haven't gotten the message, Harvest Kitchen is a must try. Do yourself a favor & have a visit. I'm betting it will stay on your list as a repeat eating spot!! Tips: - Use the text message wait list & signup before you leave your house. - You can always get 1 pancake on the side for $5. - 15% gratuity is included at checkout, as you pay you'll get options for an additional % or custom % like 0%, 3, 5% or more.
