“ Service is great and it's economical to eat here. The dining room was at about 85% capacity but the staff had everything spic and span. My dining companion didn't like one of her sides and a waitress offered to get her another side for free. She also did me the favor of bringing me a to-go cup. Awesome! ”
“ Update: 7/5/24 Went again today for some chicken tenders. Food still good, atmosphere still great but service could have been better. Went again to take my parents and it's as good as before. Food was great my parents didn't complain. Service was excellent the waiter always checked up on us. And atmosphere was good it was packed but not full. 3-17-23 The food was good and service was great. Went for the meat loaf but they didn't have it's only a certain day. I had the chicken fried chicken and chicken tenders. Wish the had meat loaf everyday. ”
“ One of the last remaining Lubys restaurants in the RGV to our knowledge. Every time we come, the service is top-notch, and the food is great. After all these years, it remains one of our favorites. Not a single negative thing to say. ”
“ We ate on a busy Friday night at Luby’s and the food was delicious! We had liver and onions with sides, and baked chicken and sides. My chicken was very dry and way over cooked, but the staff corrected it and gave me another main dish (opted for liver and onions). Don’t judge me, if you have never had the liver and onions IT’S AMAZING! If you don’t like tripas or gizzards, you probably won’t like it. It was cooked to perfection! The cabbage, broccoli, fresh salad, dinner rolls, & mac and cheese were great too. We drank water to be “healthier”. For 22 it was an awesome meal (not including tip)!! ”
“ Good taste, big portion, nice place ”
