Great food and service! I have been here many times and the service and food is great! The calzones are amazing and all the food is very reasonably priced. I would also highly recomend going on Saturday for their brunch menu! The only thing I would say is that it seemed like they were understaffed a little and the drink menu isnt the best, but thats my own opinion. read more

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

Had been there several times but the last time, the food was inferior. Everyone at table felt the same way. Hope they get it together.

Went here hoping for a nice brunch for Mother's Day. The atmosphere is great, but the food is definitely lacking. Brunch portions are small for the price, and some of the food is just weird (not in gourmet/creative food kind of way). They did nothing to make the plate more eye appealing. Literally plop the food down on a plate and call it good. Pretty disappointed with our experience. read more

BRUNCH REVIEW--quality choices and always great energy from the waitstaff here. If I could change something, it'd be the availability of more macro-friendly options. More protein, less fat, more fiber rich options--that would be a brunch game changer in Lubbock :) read more

very average place. my grilled cheese with pulled pork was fine. my friend had an adequate but +a. my other friend had a not warm, below average biscuits and gravy. the service and drives were good. wouldn't return. read more

Our experience was 3 star, but the restaurant is better than this I assume. Food was good but not amazing. I'd give it a 3.5. The restaurant is beautiful and well decorated, I imagine as the owners saw it come together it was a cool process. Very well put together. Our server was friendly but likely new (I hope). Long waits for plates, table wasn't cleared, finally after walking by several times I waved him to us to order a dessert. He delivered the dessert but didn't clear the entree plates which was weird. We spent an extra 30 minutes here just waiting for service after we finished our entrees. Highlights were the street corn fritters and churros, unfortunately they were out of ice cream which would have really brought more to the churros. I will go back and expect the experience will be much better. read more

The service was good as well as the ambiance. However our food was cold, everything appeared & tasted store bought and not freshly made, except for the eggs . We ordered stack waffles with eggs, bacon , oatmeal and hash browns. The mimosas with J.Rogét champagne was ok. read more

The Reserve Culinary Tavern - Stack waffles and oatmeal - New American Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

When I saw the name, I thought this has to be good "Culinary Tavern." Nothing special on the menu. What I had was really good, tasty and cooked well. The wine list was pretty good as well. Service at the bar was pleasant. What this place really wants to be -- a sports bar. There must have been 15 large screen televisions showing various sports event. When the weeknight football game came on, it was blaring the broadcast. I mean loud. The Tavern was memorable, but not a very good experience. read more

The Reserve Culinary Tavern - Blueberry lemon drop - New American Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

One of our favorite date spots! The food is great, the drinks are well done, and the service is always top notch. Honestly, the service is one of the best parts, prompt but not overbearing, willing to let you sit and enjoy your meal and beverages. read more

This is a great place to go if you and some friends just want to unwind and relax. The atmosphere seems upscale but casual dress is acceptable and seem all around the room. We all ordered different types of food from vegetarian plates to pizza to chicken to a burger. We all loved our meal. The service was prompt and efficient. read more

Great brunch right after church on sundays. The food is always delicious. Repeat customers for sure

Always a fun place to go! My family has met here many times in the past year and a half. We have enjoyed it every time! The food is great! My husband and brothers in law have enjoyed the chicken fried bacon. When they do not have it as an appetizer, it can usually be found on a burger. Yesterday, my sister and I had the blistered shishito peppers and jalapeno poppers - yum! Their entrees are always good! We have always had excellent and friendly service! The atmosphere is great, and it is a fun place to get together with friends and/ or family! We will definitely go back again. read more

I wanted a good breakfast before heading out of Lubbock and saw the great reviews from other yelpers. The drinks were definitely delicious! I hate bloody Mary's - I try to like them but I just can't. My husband had one and idk what they do differently but it was amazing! The mimosas served with a bottle of Prosecco and frozen cubes of juice is brilliant! They were delicious!! 5 My waffle stack was great! I'm not a savory breakfast person but decided to try it and the nice surprise of the sugar in the waffles was awesome!! The only thing I would've liked to see to give it 5 stars was a few healthier options for those of us that had over indulged while visiting TTU for the weekend. But I would definitely go back! And the chairs at our table were beautiful and so comfortable!!! If you are ao inclito do me a huge favor and send me the information on them I'd be soooo stoked!! read more

Have been for brunch twice. Scrambled eggs both times were fake eggs and cold. Everything was prepared food from Costco and wasn't even served warm. Drinks and atmosphere were great but plan to wait quite a while for your food. read more

Nice interior, upscale bar. Good service. The food is notch above bar fare. This is a bar first, restaurant second. The onion rings were great. Wings good if you like a dry rub finish. Would I return? Maybe for drinks and lite appetizer. read more

The Reserve Culinary Tavern - people eating and drinking - New American Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

Was in Lubbock for the weekend , moving my daughter into her new apartment. Since we were spending daddy daughter time I wanted to take her to eat. We always go somewhere new when we come to visit her. This place is really nice on the inside and out. The hostess was very welcoming and sat us immediately. The waiter greeted us with cold waters and took our drink orders. Lemonade for her and Woodford Rye neat for me. The waiter gave us recommendations for food. She had the chicken tacos (lots of shredded cheese), I had two appetizers Nan w/ steak and prey bites with spicy cheese. Her tacos were great on flavor and a great portion of actual chicken. They could lighten up on the shredded cheeses. It also comes with cilantro lime rice and refried beans. The rice had a little too much lime flavor for her but the beans were good. The Nan was delicious with excellent flavor and steak very tender, the pretzel bites were lightly salted and very light and the cheese dip was well seasoned and tasty. We also had a slice of chocolate cream pie. That's was very light and not too sweet. It was very good (not like my aunts though) . Overall we had a great experience. The waiter was very attentive and made sure we had what we needed. I would definitely return. read more

I hate being rude, but sometimes it's called for so here it goes. Aaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Nothing to see here but yuppie people trying to do yuppie things. We looked at the menu, laughed at lack of options and attempted gourmets sounding descriptors, then noticed the prices for bar food, and left after seeing played walk past. Sorry but if I can't smell the food it's either cold, or bland. read more

We used to love this place, but what has happened?! The last two times we have gone to dinner there, there have been obnoxious, loud, drunk people in the bar cussing and this last time, vaping inside the restaurant. We like to take our daughter, but the language in there is so bad. The food was not good. Dry meat and up charging for things we didn't even order. Plus the food took forever. Sad...this was a great spot. read more

This is typically our go to place on the weekends. Today they had a special Valentine's menu and it did not meet expectations. The server was not aware of the items on the special menu, as when we asked questions, he was unsure. For our appetizer, we ordered the coconut shrimp and it came out completely raw. Overall, entrees (filet and stuffed chicken), desserts (cheesecake and red velvet pie) and drinks were good. I think they really messed up offering a special menu that the employees did not get to try first when they could have just slimed down the menu that they already have and is always good. read more

The Reserve Culinary Tavern - Valentines menu - New American Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

They call this is a "tavern." It is a bar with bar food and some of Lubbock's roughest. We were there for late brunch on June 1. Two raucous groups at the bar controlled the entire atmosphere. Everyone, and I mean everyone, kept looking toward the bar hoping someone would ask the groups to control their noise volume and language. It never happened. Our waitress was subpar, and the food was literal American bar food. Not tavern food. We will not return and do not recommend. read more

Excellent Brunch. Nice selection of different. Eggs Benedict with Queso was nice twist from a traditional hollandaise sauce.

The food was great and the service was as well. Love their mimosas with the cranberry cube.

Excellent environment visual. Very loud music impeded table talk. Wait staff service attentive. Sunday brunch seated at 11:15. At least 30 minutes or more for order. Omelette was mid range good - nothing special- . Food not as special as it should have been . Would not be my first choice for brunch. A more quiet atmosphere would improve dining experience. Wait staff working under pressure from kitchen. Very slow in delivering order to table. read more

First time visiting! Had a great time with friends because of the great drinks. One of the best Old Fashioned I have had in LBk! The appetizers were solid and the service was attentive. Great environment! read more

Pizza is bland, and managers are rude. Refused to switch a meaningless Vikings vs rams game off main tv for two Texas teams playing the opening game of the season IN TEXAS. Took it off main tv and switched to smaller one and manager clearly was bothered by being asked. We were sat at a booth that sits so high we had to jump to get into it. read more

I really enjoyed this place!! The atmosphere is really nice. Good music, but not too loud so we could have conversations and not have to yell. The food was delicious - absolutely fantastic fries, the burger was cooked perfectly. The martini was awesome too, will be having it again for sure. Our waitress, Bailey, was super friendly and nice. A couple people in my party had to request a different entree because what they chose wasn't what they expected, and the staff was very understanding and accommodating. I will totally be back with my mom when she's in town. Loved!!! read more

My husband and I did like The Reserve for a night alone, without family. We waited to be seated as instructed. The girl took the couple ahead of us and returned to the hostess stand. Two women walked in after us and a young man walked up to the stand and spoke to the hostess. They both looked at my husband and I, more words, then he walked off. The girl picked up two menus, asked the couple behind us how many were in their party? She then proceeded to escort the couple that came in after us to their table. We walked out and will not return. read more

Servers are great but food is overpriced and my dish was cold. Very disappointing. I had filet medallions - def need to step up their game

Food was great! Chicken and waffles with side of Nashville hot sauce!! Plenty of TVs for College football!

Traveling through Lubbock, a place I lived years ago. A lot of my old favorite spots were not holding up on Yelp so decided to try something new; this was it. I went on a Thursday night, and there was a pretty busy crowd. Even so, I'd expect that someone would be at the door to help seat the line that had been forming before I arrived hoping to sit at an open table (of which there were plenty). After an uncomfortably long wait a hostess arrived and sat the first group. After seating the group, she disappeared again for at least another five minutes. I get you're busy, but just sayin': someone needs to man the door. Service was fair, they were out of the first two beer selections I asked for, and after asking for some pepper with my steak salad (should be on the table at this point), I waited another 5 to 7 minutes before the server came by to ask if everything was OK, at which point I asked for pepper again. What keeps this at a 4-star (more like 3.5) is the food was really good. Pickle brined chicken wings were outstanding, and the Black & Blue Steak Tip salad was excellent. I'd go back if I was in town, but would hope the service was improved. read more

Fantastic brunch! Order the hangover! The appetizers are all amazing as well! We love the naan and the Italian egg rolls!

Fantastic brunch. Had 4 entrees- all outstanding. Will definitely return for dinner. Pulled pork Benedict with queso a winner. Donut burger - very rich but delicious as well. Good prices. Our waiter was great. read more

Food average, television placements are good, waitress was nice. Now the bad, made a reservation the day before and requested to be at a table away from the front door, when arrived the manager stone faced said no, and pointed to a table almost next to the door. I ordered the street tacos, 2 to an order but I requested to have one pork one chicken instead of having two of the same meat. The waitress asked the manager if she could do that, and he said no. Received the bill and there was a 3% additional charge for credit card use. Want to irritate a customer? Charge for a normal business expense. There are hundreds of restaurants in town and we will not return there. read more

Wife and I yelped this place. We have been in lubbock off and on for 30 years so we know the food and locations well. Hadn't been to this place before. We both liked the portion size of the plates (not too huge!). The filet medallion's I had were good. I asked for medium rare and they came medium to well done. Other than that the flavor was good. Wife's salmon plate was good she really enjoyed it. Loved the atmosphere. We'll come again. read more
