    Dessert brownie.
    Missie T.

    I have been to Lugos many times. I always feel a little disappointed. It probably has one of the best atmospheres available locally for a nice night out. Recently was the best meal I have had there. The ribeye is a solid choice on the regular menu. I have been disappointed in the other mains. Recently I had the lobster bowl (mussels, halibut, lobster, and some other Fisk with ramen in a sea food broth. It finally lived up to my expectation for an upper scale restaurant. If I was to go I would get the calamari appetizer and drinks. Then I would go do whatever else I wanted but for dinner the ribeye is good and the fish bowl (special menu item) of the desserts I would choose the tiramisu. With that specific menu I would give 4 stars however if I branched outside of those courses it would probably be a 3

    This is my husband's ribeye!

    Always the best food and service! The atmosphere is great, laid back, and to die for! Drinks are great and desserts on the way!

    Shrimp and grits &  barbecue sliders with french fries

    The absolute best shrimp and grits I have had in the past few years. My wife had barbecue sliders and homemade fries. Sharon was impressed by the fry's which were made fresh. Would recommend, the food is good the price is reasonable and the service is top-notch. The restaurant had a touch of class with a welcoming atmosphere.

    Went to Saturday lunch with her girlfriends in downtown Dickson TN. Lugo's is open for lunch from 11 am - 2 pm. They will take a reservation for a group. Their lunch menu is somewhat different than the dinner menu but features the fan favorite Grits with a spicy Sausage and Grits. Totally YUM! Their Mahi Mahi fish were a special for the day and were wonderful. Salmon Sliders and slow cooked BBQ pork quesadillas also found their way to our table! Our waiter Steve was terrific and very attentive. We started with the fried plantain chips with a dipping sauce that was more than enough for the give of us to munch on before and during our meal. The food was served very quickly and was presented very nicely on the plate. The dessert menu features crème brûlée, coffee tiramisu, chocolate brownies, ice creams and sorbets. Desserts the right size to finish a lovely meal without putting you in a sugar coma. The decor is nice and inviting st lunchtime and at dinner. It's our family's favorite special occasion restaurant. A nice touch was that the chef came out to greet and talk to everyone. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a more upscale type atmosphere that is too over the top. You can dress up or play it casual... they treat all customers with warmth and friendliness!

I always get the half order of catfish fillet, usually with a baked potato, and I have NEVER been disappointed. No joke, some of the best catfish I have had in my life! I was able to go last week while visiting, and tried the spicy catfish fillet for the first time. The breading was a little thicker than their regular fillet, but crisp and full of flavor without being overly spicy. The sides are served family style, which is dangerous for me, because I could easily take down a family's worth of creamy coleslaw, white beans with red pepper relish, and hushpuppies before my catfish even has an opportunity to get to the table. Those hushpuppies..... soooooo good! Nice and crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Large parking lot out front with the iconic Catfish statue alerting everyone that they got the right place for catfish. The interior is unassuming, and according to my dad, hasn't changed much in the last 50 years. It's clean though, and in my opinion, if you have a good thing going, then why change? The staff is super nice, and they take cash and card. Please NEVER change Catfish Kitchen!
