There are three options for dessert, but unfortunately they only had two available which was cheesecake and crème brûlée. The crème brûlée was alright, not my favorite. Price is moderate and had plenty of parking. Never stayed at the Cotton Court Hotel before, but the view of the hotel from the restaurant looked very nice.

This is a decent enough place if you're in the area and out of better ideas, but it's nothing…read morespectacular. 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.

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.

Before my daughter's appointment nearby, we decided on Flippers Tavern for lunch…read more This place is quite different than many places in Lubbock, TX. When we walked in on May 19, 2026, the place was not too busy at around noon. Right away I noticed low lighting. Cool alternative, rock, and old R&B music playing in the background. A full bar. Pinball machines for tables. Lots of nostalgia in this place! Restroom was mostly clean. The food was okay. I wish there was a bit more flavor to everything. My daughter agreed. + The Damned Dog ($11) "All beef frank, house beef chili, cheddar, diced onions, and jalapeno crispies." This was good but the frank and chili needed more flavor. I opted for a side of house-made vegan potato salad (additional $1.50) instead of potato chips which really good. + The Sourpuss ($12) "Bratwurst, sauerkraut, pickle slice, crushed salt & vinegar chips, and queso fresco." My daughter enjoyed this with ketchup and mustard added and a side of smoked gouda mac. That mac was very tasty. We also noticed how crisp and spicy our Sprite and Dr. Peppers were. Loved that. I'd definitely go back again for a drink and maybe a sandwich next time. Ample lot parking.

We came with a party of nine and it took over three hours to get all of our food and drinks -- absolutely crazy. They were severely understaffed, with maybe two servers handling the entire dining area. Our server was running nonstop and did her best, but management clearly hasn't staffed properly. If you're just coming to hang out and watch a game with a drink, fine. But if you're expecting a true Italian dining experience, this is not the place.
