    Cilantro Lime Chicken and Sangrita

    Love this place! The updated lime chicken was phenomenal! Still the best Sangrita I've ever had (and I've had a ton of different ones). The churro bread pudding was incredible! Will definitely be back next time I'm in Lubbock! Service was great! Just an all around cool vibe!

    Heard about their new menu options, and had to stop in to try it! for this month they have an amazing jalapeno cheese fry bread! absolutely delicious and pairs well with their white queso! per usual the service was excellent & we cant wait to return for more

    Visited Picoso's for the second time with a small work group. The hostess accommodated our staggered arrival times and the waitress checked in regularly to get drinks for late comers. The food was delicious and our orders were almost perfect. Everybody that didn't clean their plate took the rest with them. The background noise wasn't too much, we were able to have a good discussion without any trouble. Picoso's is a nice place to get Mexican food.

    Plastic fork and plastic knife's

    How do I give a zero star review? After a 6 hour drive to Lubbock we decided to visit this restaurant. We waited for 45 minutes for no drinks, no silverware, and cold food. They ran out of silverware and gave us plastic fork and plastic knife's!!! Is there no one in the back to help clean the forks and knife's? Oh and a special touch is that there was a giant clump of hair in the queso.

    We were hesitant to try Picoso's, due to some of the poor reviews. However, we are really glad we did and recommend you give them a shot. Our experience was well above their 3 star rating. Everything was excellent. The staff was great, the drinks were good, the food was very tasty and the atmosphere was nice. The cocktail list has some very appealing options. I ended up with the house margarita, just to see what we were working with. It was very good, and I look forward to going back to try the others soon. We got the Crispy Rellenos, fajitas, and the chocolate cake for dessert. All were delicious.

    The fork is bigger than the cheese

    So me and the family have gone to Picoso's at least once a month for several months. Every time I order 3 cheese enchiladas and NEVER have they ever made them with any more than just a small sprinkles of shredded cheese. Then they roll the tortilla over 4 times to make look full of cheese. They need to hire a better chef or teach them how to make A REAL CHEESE ENCHILADA VERY SAD

    We waited about 17 minutes for a waiter. Maybe 8 tables had patrons. At least 6 waiters and no one waited on us.

This new…read moreplace not only boasts a shuffleboard, they have pool tables, a few arcade games, a gigantic stage (think Karaoke, Comedy and Music), LOTS of seating, good lighting, big screen wall-mounted TVs and we have not event talked about food or drinks yet. Listen up, this place is new (opened late Nov 2024) so they are still working out the kinks. I say this because there are two reviews on this place that mention negative things. IMHO I think thus far they are excelling and will only get better and better. We need to give them grace as they learn and grow. ***So please READ MY REVIEW and ignore the 1 stars.*** The food we ordered was tasty, affordable and came out quickly. Drinks for the entire table were on point. Shout out to Chet who will gladly curate a drink for you if you are not sure what you want. Oh and did I mention 237 is located inside? 237 is Speakeasy located inside of Soggy Dog (at this time 237 is open Thur-Sat nights). 237 has it's own vibe and drink menu. PRO TIP: Enter Soggy Dog through either of the double set of metal doors. Yes you are at the right place. I will take pictures of the entrance on my next visit.

The chips and queso were an appetizer but came out with the rest of the food. Queso was extremely burned so I asked for it to be removed from the ticket; instead, they replaced it with spicy broccoli cheese soup. Okra and fries were not cooked all the way through; seems hard to mess up food service frozen food, but here we are. The hot chicken sandwich was made with chicken so tough I couldn't cut it. The hot sauce was nice, the salsa was decent. My giant mug of beer was flat but at least it was cold. Overall: poor food, slow service. Was hoping for better.

While sitting in the Walmart parking lot researching places near where I'm staying for work in Lubbock, I came across The Funky Door Bistro Wine Room. I'm so glad I did. When I pulled up, I appreciated the ample parking and immediately noticed the unique wine‑glass door handles--such a fun touch. Inside, the décor is warm and inviting with wood accents, dim lighting, and a beautiful display of wines. The upstairs seating overlooking the main floor adds to the charm. The service was excellent from start to finish. I ordered a grapefruit mimosa and an egg‑white omelet with avocado, feta, spinach, and breakfast potatoes with caramelized onions and peppers. I was charged extra for egg whites, but it was absolutely worth it. Everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly. From the hostess to the server, the service and timing were spot‑on. I truly enjoyed my brunch at The Funky Door. Thank you for a great experience.

Menu prices incorrect on wine, and about $100 more than cost. Kids meals came with a drink according to the kids menu, but we were charged $3 per drink. Extra bread for fondu was $5. And to top it off a 3.5% credit card fee!

I will give major props to the server, Mollie, and her manager for doing a phenomenal job resolving a minor issue with the order quickly, politely, and effectively. The atmosphere was fair with good music and humorous decor in the bathroom. The lights weren't for me, but others may like the statement. Where The Reserve was lacking was the food. The pepperoni pizza was pretty good, but again there are better options around town. It did taste like it had been prepared in a genuine brick oven. The tortellini was bland. The queso was good enough, but nothing to get excited about. The salsa was downright terrible. The chips were actually phenomenal. The margarita made no attempt to cover up the strong taste of tequila. The Chilton tasted like club soda and not much else. Lastly, some of the surprise fees made me feel like I was booking air travel or paying a wireless bill rather than getting a nice meal. The final charge was a few dollars more than what was shown on the ticket. I assumed this was probably due to a service charge for paying with a card, although I didn't see it with a quick glance at the receipt. In all fairness, I'm sure this was disclosed somewhere and I overlooked it. I have come to accept this as the way of the world now. Also, when we ordered the chips and queso, we were asked if we wanted salsa with it. We accepted the salsa with the assumption that it was complimentary. Granted, since we were asked, I should have assumed that there was a charge for it. The charge was reasonable, although wasted because the salsa was so terrible. I did receive approximately a 5% discount for the order mix-up, and I actually ended up with a free pizza as well. The service and attentiveness were truly exemplary. I would give this place a second chance if I were in the area, but I certainly will not go out of my way for it.

    This may have actually been the most disappointing food I've ever had in Lubbock, I love local…read morerestaurants but this one just isn't it. This isn't to say this is the worst food in existence, but for the price point I can't recommend this place. Let me start by saying this restaurant seems to have a massive variation in the quality of its dishes. I imagine the positive reviews probably ordered some sort of specialty signature dishes as what I got was just reprehensible. Do not order the tomato soup and grilled cheese, don't even consider it. For $9 I got a small cup of soup and HALF of a sandwich, must of been pretty good for the price right?.... I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that when I accidentally burn grilled cheeses at home, they are still better in every category than what I received here. Zero flavor. The tomato soup looked really good, but also had such little flavor that dunking the grilled cheese in it actually made the grilled cheese worse. This meal would've been a tough sell if my 5 year old cousin made it for me when I was sick. My friend also gave their green beans cause they didn't want it... and I can see why, it was also horrifically bland. Also nabbed a few tater tots from the chicken steak and they were super breaded, not bad but not impressive. The "shining" star of the experience was the mulita I got as an appetizer, quite good, like a 3/5 good though, still rather dry and covered in cilantro, came with some sauce, but overall the best thing I had. The decor of the place was just baffling. High ceiling, high chairs, white walls, random TTU alumni adorning the walls, tvs with sports running. Seemingly trying to be a nice place, but the kind of nice place where you can watch the latest football game while having an overpriced beer and the worst grilled cheese of your life. The service I got was fine, on the lower side of quality (especially for the price point). I did like the brown overalls they were wearing, very steampunk. When I saw this place had an overwhelmingly positive reception, I was excited to go there, but this was one of the most disappointing places I've visited in Lubbock which sucks cause it's local. For $20 i got half a grilled cheese, worst than canned soup, and 3 mulitas (which I shared). Maybe to some they would say this was a middling experience, but have some standards for yourself people. I sincerely hope that I just had rotten luck picking the worst item on the menu, and this place is actually quite good, but that's all optimism and no reality. What I got was one star, please fix your grilled cheese. 3/15 (+ brown overalls, + mulita, -everything else) Fails in pretty much every category, I'm sure some dishes are good, but I won't revisit in some futile attempt to find one
