The friendly staff and great food made this breakfast a memorable experience! I loved having a meal in a unique place that's just not another chain restaurant. read more

I've only lived here for a short time, but the biscuits and gravy are excellent. I'd say they are the best in Lubbock if I could. Portions are just right, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The Cast Iron Grill is perfect for everyday, special occasions, and for impressing out-of-towns visitors. You won't regret giving them your business. read more

Cast Iron Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

What a great experience! Most people park across the street at the Buddy Holly Museum (which was closed when we were there). Parking lot was full and we watched dozens of people walking in, but we were seated within a few minutes. Our server was attentive and friendly, there are lots of choices on the menu, our meals of country fried steak and a salad with fried chicken were both very good. The pies, oh those pies...Almond Joy and Cherry (sundae?) were wonderful. A bit pricey with all that we ordered but we had enough to take home for dinner tonight so not a bad deal overall. read more

Best food ever!! Chicken strips, chicken fried steak , burger, vegetable plate. And dessert are so good. I've order pies for Thanksgiving all homemade right there. Service is fabulous !! Clean!! Only complaint I have I wished they were open on the weekends or at night. I can't imagine what they could do for grilled steaks. Their salads are good too. Fresh cut not bagged read more

I ate at the Cast Iron Grill two days in a row this week and the food was good. And I have eaten there previously, and it has always been good food. But my issue is with the customer service. Both of the days that I went myself and other people that were waiting in the front to be served just totally got ignored for ten or fifteen minutes before one lady just had to literally say excuse me to one of the workers just to get us help...!! One of the workers even spoke to a man who came in who was obviously a regular there, and still not acknowledging us at all..! I never experienced that before in the past, not sure if its new workers now, but I definitely think those ladies need a refresher course in customer service...!!! If it wasn't for the poor customer service I would have given a 5 star rating. read more

GREAT HOMEMADE FOOD! Good service and great atmosphere! Get there early and they are only open for breakfast and lunch!

Audriana was our server and she provided excellent service. She was very friendly and attentive. The burger and onion rings were delicious!! It's a must try read more

Great food and very good service. The atmosphere was very good. Definitely would recommend

It was an a-ok place for me. Nothing caught my eye except for the overly short shorts that every female waitress was wearing. I realized that this must be what it feels like to go to Hooters (never been). It was really disturbing to the eye. Plus, there were little kids dining there with parents... (smh). My all-time favorite country food is country-fried steak so undoubtedly I ordered their renowned, "The C.I.G. Favorite Country Fried Steak" with sides, mashed potatoes and green beans. Wow, the best part of that meal was the sides and that's not saying much. The country fried steak was all crust and barely no meat... (smh again). Likewise, my bf ordered the "Chicken Fried Chicken" with the chicken tasting so bland even with all that breading.. It was a disappointment as I had high hopes of this place. Will I be back? Nope and definitely not with kids. read more

I liked the country fried steak; one of the better ones in Texas for sure. The place was supper crowded at lunch, so long line and long wait. And I might add well-protected, with the adjacent tables occupied by a lot of state troopers, which is always a sign of good food, lol. read more

Was recommended to try this place when in Lubbock. Nice people and food was cooked home style. Give it a try.

Was treated to lunch by a co-worker that lives in the area. He said it was a huge favorite among locals and that we had to eat here. Decor-interior is pretty cool, it's dark with simple tables and chairs. I like the country bar/diner decor with lots of country knickknacks and license plates on the walls. It's also quite roomier then it looks from the outside. Service-great! The ladies here are nice and engaging and very attentive. Our waitress was very sweet and I enjoyed talking to her. Food-don't think the food is why this place is popular, because it's a little less then average. Meat log special wasn't anything special and the burger was greasy and didn't have much flavor. Can't I'd like to come back here next time I'm in town. Banana pudding was good, but a little too rich for me. Tip-maybe try the steak or fish?? read more

Best place in Lubbock to get a good, hot, homemade meal! And don't forget to order pie! You won't regret it!

DELISH. Staff is super nice. Food is really good. Deserts are OHMYHEAVENS! I had the mushroom burger and he had chicken fried steak. Not a complaint to be made. Mississippi Mud Pie was like grandma used to make. Expect a little wait...but it is totally worth it. read more

Damn good comfort food at a reasonable price. Thoroughly enjoyed the chicken fried steak. Perfectly seasoned breading and a fairly tender cube steak. Chose mash potatoes and corn as sides both were delicious. If I ever have to be back in Lubbock (God I hope not) every possible meal will be eaten here. read more

We had a good solid breakfast here today. Everything was very good. Great service as well. The manager was checking on everyone as well.

Always great food but always a wait. They do their Best Buy creating extra seating.

Every time I arrive in Lubbock, I place an order for their homemade green chili stew it and everything else on the menu is fabulous. Staff is kind and not overbearing, even though it's always busy. Don't forget a slice of pie read more

This place is dangerously delicious...lol. I needed confirmation on their chicken fried steak being as delicious as everyone says. It was confirmed. I have had some amazing chicken fried steak but this was the best. It was very busy but there is a definitely a sense of urgency here and the customer service is fantastic. I took a slice of their cherry banana split pie to go and it was amazing. I wish I could try a bite of all of their pies. Yum! read more

Best BLT I have ever had with layers of thick cut bacon, fresh tomatoes and crispy lettuce. The food is good old home cooking and while probably not heart healthy, tastes fabulous. It's worth it to fall off your diet once in a while and eat some really good, tummy-busting food. read more

First timer looking for a good breakfast. Sat down at the bar and Monica made me feel right at home. Jenny on the spot with coffee refills even though she was very busy. Had the western omelette and didn't wait long. It was great. Biscuit and gravy was a little on the cooler side but it was good nevertheless. Great atmosphere. Staff jawing and hugging regulars. Good food and good vibe all around. Thanks. read more

Any time I been there we always get the best service and food we wish they open longer hours and weekends

We went here for lunch, slightly busy but not too bad, our server was ok...maybe she had too many tables to cover, idk but she was really short with us. We had cfs and a burger. They were ok but not out of this world fantastic. We might go back but it's not the first place we think of read more

Dropped into this hidden gem for lunch yesterday a little after one in the afternoon. The decor is warm and inviting with a true West Texas feel to it. Instantly you are greeted with the display of the hand made desserts that near send you into a diabetic coma right then and there. Me and my party of two other adults and one child under four was seated and looking over the menu in less the seven minutes even though their lunch rush was still in full swing. Once seated our server was knowledgeable and extremely friendly and prompt with our drink. The ordering experience was very pleasant. I myself had the chicken fried steak, loaded mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese. While I waited for my, and the rest of my tables good my nose was assaulted with smells the pulled me the ought the ether of time back to my great grandmothers home and the smell of her cooking. I was quite relaxed in the casual atmosphere. The food arrived in generous portions and each bite was a delightful taste sensation. Our drinks remained refilled and any other needs taken care of promptly and well. I highly suggest this place to anyone anytime you can get there. read more

Food is really good some of the best food we have had out in awhile and the waitresses are friendly

Went for lunch. Good food and fast service. The green chili gravy adds good flavor. I haven't managed the pie yet but they looked good.

Came into Cast Iron Grill for breakfast today. I had the Big Hearty Breakfast and it hit the spot. It comes with 3 eggs, 2 choices of meat (bacon, ham or sausage) and 2 choices of potatoes (hash browns or fried potatoes), as well as a biscuit, toast or pancake. I brought a friend with me who lives in Minnesota and he was impressed. Definitely recommend. Cast Iron Grill also has delicious pie -- I particularly love their lemon pie. It's excellent. read more

This is THE place to eat breakfast and lunch in Lubbock. Not the fanciest, or the most diverse, but really good food and great people serving it. Quite well done menu selection with a few twists, mostly prepared from scratch, served up hot and fast in a fun environment, (wink wink). Food above the quality expected and great service gets you 4.5 stars, Coke gets you the other .5, so I give this place 5 stars. read more

The food at this place is amazing. Does not disappoint at all and their pies are out of this world. Great comfort food!!! read more

Opon walking in it smells amazing... The decor is very odd, floor needs redone flaking...Not sure why they have a bar in center of room with NO booze being served? But the place is very clean. I ordered a hearty man meal... if u ask me portions were small... single pancake with small amount of hash browns.... out of my 3 eggs over medium 2 were over cooked and broke. Sausage patties were also overcooked. After reading all reviews must say VERY DEPRESSED. Can't see how this was the AJ breakfast of the year. read more

Cast Iron Grill - Hearty breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

The food was the only bad part of the experience. The staff was friendly and service was good. The grilled chicken is probably not what people go there for, but it's what we got and it was terrible. The grilled chicken Caesar salad was the worst I've ever had. The mashed potatoes with the grilled chicken were not good either. read more

I'm sitting here at work right now super hungry and just fantasizing about their food. It started thinking about the chicken fries chicken with the green chile gravy. So flakey and so moist. I cut into it and it gives the most satisfying crunch noise. My mind then wanders to the fried green beans. The beans are so large and fresh. I dip them in the ranch and bite into it revealing a perfect center, a bean lightly hanging from the pod. I've never eaten a dessert there, but I've taken one home a couple times, sooooo good. read more
