    Char I.

    Ya know. I think the food here might be worst than hospital food yall! I came here with a friend after we left a function. And for some reason she was raving about lubys and I cant figure out why. The food here is served a la carte. You grab your tray and go through the line and tell them what you want. I chose one entree with 2 sides. I selected the fried fish, initially black eyed peas and sweet potatoes. Well my black eyed peas were cold. Disappointing and they didn't have anymore. I instead got dirty rice and it wasn't great. The fried fish was dense greasy and not flavored well, hot sauce didnt help and the sweet potatoes were just okay. The pecan pie was sweet not good or frankly worth the calories. I almost forgot about the solid as a rock "cornbread" absolutely not. It was dry and hard to swallow. Lucy's I pass...

    That's Bridgette be careful if you are not all the way black

    My family went to eat here and an older black lady Bridgette was sooo rude she treated the black couple in front of us kindly then the black man after with courtesy but she served my food sloppily and would barely answer my questions without a hateful tone. she was yelling at me about the price and my ability to pay for it...I asked for no onions and she placed so many on my plate. i was ready to leave at that point. The other staff thought it funny and I called the manager named Solomon and he was not helpful he put the blame on me because I was upset and did nothing to make us feel welcome either (btw he is blaxk too). I asked for a business card and corporate number but they claim there were none and three witnesses to that as well. My food was cold and the onions I asked her not to give me she threw in the plate anyways. I work In The media and had witnesses I will go to corporate next because we hold events here and that type of service is trash and that's is a contributing factor in the decline of our community.... and we are the same race she just thought I was not black enough maybe to get good seevice by an old angry woman. She should retire

    I don't go to Lubys but my family wanted to go. I was very pleasantly surprised. The food and service were good. My wife told me about the luan platter, less food for less money. Found out they even have a senior discount for the luan platter so I got and enjoyed that. I enjoyed a smaller portion chicken fried steak with a choice of brown or white gravy....I tried brown and it was great, it came with 2 sides, I loved the green beans and spinach.

    Totally disappointed that EVERYTHING on this pic was cold

    Went earlier this month to the OST location, and there were quite a few strands on hair fried within the batter of my fish. Went to the S Post Oak location today, and EVERYTHING on my plate was cold. The waiter said it's been happening for a month so far, and management is aware, but nothing's been done. He mentioned he's had 40-50 plates sent back for the same thing. Since it's been issues at 2 locations, and nothing's being done, I conclude that Luby's doesn't care about their customers nor their quality. Kind of makes me think they're self-sabotaging, especially since so many locations are closing.

    I met a cool dude here he served my good food and I would recommend this lively buffalo place

    I received the best service from a waiter named Avery. We were greeted with a smile, he assisted us with our tray's and was very attentive. Not to mention great food

    This is definitely not the Luby's I remember as a kid. This "fancy" Luby's, features outdoor seating, spacious inside, flat screens, colorful balloons, a multitude of windows, and a bar. Not sure if they serve alcohol, but there was a seperate "bar area" with a server and all. But everyone is right. We want out condiment table! We want our condiment tay-bal!!! Seriously. I come to Luby's for two things: mac 'n' cheese and hot rolls with honey butter. And here are two things that went wrong: sloooow check out service so that by the time we sat down, the grub was less than warm, and we had to wait even longer for that sweet butter. Oh wait, they don't have butter. They only carry margarine now! So it sucks that you now have to ask your hard-to-be-found server for things like butter, ketchup, hot sauce and straws. But I'll still go back. They've got this buy-one-get-one-half off deal every night after 4:30pm Mon-Fri, which is not bad for a simple dinner in Uptown.

There was no sear on the burger, it was overcooked and flavorless. Two thin, underripe tomato slices and a massive bun. I ended up eating half a patty of bland well-done meat with a fork. It was a $18 meal. Tiny portion of battered fries spread thinly across the plate -- about a small portion at Mickey D's equivalent. I have to vent a bit on the tipping demand placed on patrons who are not actually being serviced tableside. Your cashier was super, sweet and helpful about the food, so I felt obliged to tip, though ringing someone up is not tip-worthy. I'm tired of supplementing business owners who expect their patrons to tend to themselves, doing the bare minimum, while their customers subsidize their labor expenses. The pretzel appetizers came after the main courses, the servings were tiny and the pretzels were stale, like they'd been microwaved. The gouda sauce was lovely, and my friend enjoyed her grits & shrimp. Another at our table actually left their fries, (his burger was also cooked incorrectly) and the other pulled half the coleslaw topping off his fried chicken strips and left it behind. Just way overpriced for what you get.

The Mac and cheese was decent too. I was impressed with the service here. No line to order & even with a packed restaurant our food came out super quick. Which was awesome because we were starving!! The ambiance gave classic cafeteria vibes. Lots of seating and some nice decorations. They have both indoor and outdoor seats. This is an "order at the counter" place (which surprised me at first). Parking was a bit of a challenge. We had to park in the overflow garage across the street.

It would be the perfect spot to enjoy some outdoor bites and libations if not for the insufferable weather we have most of the year, but luckily, the interior is just as lovely. It's immaculate, well decorated, and deceptively spacious. There's plenty of booths, tables, and there's even a fully stocked bar and takeaway area The menu offers a variety of delicacies from a french dip, to pecan crusted chicken, to enchiladas. They have lovely handcrafted cocktails to choose from - some classic cocktails and some signature concoctions Everything tasted and looked great. The pecan chicken was more sweet than I expected, but still good. All of the sides were great. The cocktails looked great and tasted good. I did order one cocktail that gave ingredients but mentioned a "thick pink juice" that is made in-house, and upon my initial taste I soon discovered they meant beet juice. It wasn't bad, just unexpected and a little overpowering Our sever was good. Our orders came out quickly and without any issues. We did have to wait a while for top-offs on water. Also, as I was taking photos of the food our server was behind me and I apologized and they said "phone eats first," and I hope that was only meant in jest and not throwing shade lol Some tips: These plates aren't the most shareable, but if in a group I would consider ordering a variety of entrees and sides and trying each others meals If you're feeling something sweet after your meal, consider walking next door to Milk + Sugar. They're one of my favorite West Houston ice cream parlors Cheers!!
