Bubba's 33 in Lubbock, TX, was a solid cocktail and dinner place for my family back on December 19,…read more2025. Never having been to Bubba's before, I wasn't quite sure what to expect when my brother's girlfriend suggested it after we went to view a drive-thru Christmas light tour. The sports-themed restaurant features a full bar, loudish music, and a variety of high-top and regular tables and booths. The women's restroom was mostly clean. Our waitress was attentive and kind. My drink took a while to come. I had the BLACKBERRY SMASH (Crown Royal hand shaken with a hint of Bubba's 33 sweet & sour, DeKuyper Razzmatazz Liqueur, and fresh blackberries - $9). The Monte Cristo was pretty delicious. It entailed "Roasted turkey, ham, American and jack cheese on wheat bread, batter-dipped, deep-fried and dusted with powdered sugar served with raspberry preserves" ($13.99). The fire fries (Habanero seasoning) paired well with it. My oldest had a really delicious looking club sandwich with regular fries ($13.99). My youngest had the bacon guacamole burger with fire fries ($14.99) and a Tropical Breeze mocktail ($5). She enjoyed her food, but wasn't drinking her mocktail and I asked why, then I tried it. It didn't taste like it should have. It wasn't good at all. Overall, I'd eat here again if friends wanted to meet up.

We left because the food was not really even warm when we finally got it. Why doesn't someone expedite food? Did the waitress forget to turn in the order? It makes us sad because this restaurant is close and when everything is working right it's good. Unfortunately , it's often not the case. The music on nights with bands or Karaoke are so loud it hurts! This place is small! Turn it down.!

Tonight it was charcoal burnt again and I asked for a different one and they brought it out with the top flipped off, but still charcoal burnt.

Can we talk and tell you what we wanna order that's the first thing that made us upset we asked for a new server. Second server was fine. She did a good job, but the food was absolutely atrocious. My daughter got the zinger's tossed and barbecue sauce, but they did not toss them. They drenched them just poured barbecue sauce over the zingers. I got the Californian chicken. It was dry. It was not even hot. The only thing that was hot. Was the Papas I won't return to this establishment anytime soon.

Food was decent - got the seafood pasta, habanero wings and the grilled chicken Cesar salad. I had the salad and can't say I've had a Cesar dressing like that, seems like a cross between Cesar and Italian. Tasty, just not what was expected. The grilled chicken was seasoned well and the salad over all was good. Drinks were Lychee martini and the blueberry lemon drop shot turned into a full drink. Both were tasty and I'd get the lychee martini again The outside was a bit hard to notice due to the tree growth and there was so much bird droppings outside. Maybe part of the fly issue.

I feel like Bierhaus is a place worthy of two separate reviews, so I'm going to write it as such:…read more I. Bierhaus has the best burgers in Lubbock. I am not even going to front with you. Their buns have such a sweetness to them mixed with a sharp and well-cooked patty, American cheese (a must in a cheeseburger), and their haus sauce that is like a thousand island style sauce that all combines into a delight. It always has a hefty weight to it and a well balanced amount of tomatoes, lettuce, and onions. How do you explain the concept of a burger? It's really just something special. I like coming here for lunch. It's a bar at the end of the day, but their burgers are what make me want to come back. Many times in college, a friend would suggest Bierhaus, and I would tell them yes only if we got there before their kitchen closed because I needed a burger. They also give you a ton of fries. More fries than you'll ever need with a burger. That's awesome. Being in Texas, you see a lot of places offer a patty melt similar to the ones at Whataburger. A lot of places try to make a higher version dupe of a patty melt, and I think it always falls flat, but Bierhaus's does a pretty good job of being its own thing. Thank you for good food, Bierhaus. RIYL: Boorger II. Bierhaus is a great starter bar for a night out as a college kid in Lubbock. I don't think it's a place to end up if you're hitting multiple spots, but I find it endearing as a warm up spot or a one and done on a chill night. The two story indoor space can be loud, but there's a lot of booths for hanging around and chatting, with plenty of TVs. The outdoor patio has a different energy with swings, large tables, and a DJ. They always have a great selection of beers and good deals to go around. It was one of the few bars in Lubbock to offer cans of peebers (PBRs), which was always exciting for me. They also have their Capri Funs, which I always enjoy. Bierhaus is worth the party. RIYL: Brewskis

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.
