The place I miss most since leaving Lubbock is Little Panda, especially the one right across campus.

Dude, you all have to be joking about Little Panda -- sure it's cheap but C'MON! Do you KNOW how many health violations they repeatedly got. You couldn't pay me to go eat at that place.
Also: Thai Pepper, Rosas, and Jaliscos --------------------  |

I have not lived in Lubbock since April of 07, so obviously things have probably changed some, but here's my restaurant take:
Localized to Lubbock: Spanky's - Can't say I ever really thought Spankys' burgers were anything special, but I do think they have the best fried cheese ever. Burgers - My favorite burger in town is a toss up between Skooner's "Burger to beat all burgers" or Bonus Burger. Bonus Burger is cheap and has great tots to go along with it, and Skooner's has great beer specials. Cagle's - I've come to find that you either absolutely love their steak (ribeye only, order by the thickness) or don't care for it. It's all in the rub they use. Personally I love it and always make it a point to get out there whenever I'm in town. Same thing with their other favorite of mine, their potato salad. It has a heavy pickle flavor so, like the steaks, either you really like it or don't. Orlando's - Ok this place gets talked up way too much IMHO. Fairly decent food, but I have to mention them because I think they have the absolute best chips & queso in town. Weird, yes I know, that I would say this about an Italian restaurant. But I mention it because I think anyone who hasn't tried it should. Chain restaurants: On the Border - always good stuff, IMHO the best fajitas in town. They seemed to be the only ones who understood that the best fajitas still have a little pink. Abuelo's - Good Mexican food that's a little more high brow than the other Mexican restaurants in town. Good date place. Go and do yourself a favor and get a plate of medium rare pork tenderloin medallions and their mashed potatoes. Best mashed potatoes in town. Make sure to ask for the hotter salsa too, it's purty good if you can handle it. Wingstop - The one on Slide near the loop is the best one I have ever been to. The people knew us by name and seemed to actually care about their customers. Best french fries ever IMHO. Chick Fil A - The one on Slide at the loop. Weird to mention I know, but we got to know the owners there and this place was damn good as far as fast food goes. They were 5th highest in ratings for the entire company at one point. |

You thinking of Fazoli's? That place was always good for what it was. Never seen another "fast food italian" like that. Great breadsticks.
edit: Maybe you're thinkin of Stella's. That place... eh I always thought it was overhyped, but that's just my take. Their regular restaurant was way overhyped and overpriced IMHO. |

I miss Orlando's. They had the most amazing fried zucchini.
I miss Little Panda as well, but I preferred the one on Slide that collapsed. Rosa's was yum as well. Then there was this giant Chinese buffet on University past 50th. That place RULED. |

I like Orlando's because they take a Texas spin to the Italian restaurant. I like when people make the food their own. It isn't the best Italian food but it is good.
My favorite local bbq is J&M off of 34th street, but for a chain Rudy's is really good. And my favorite steak so far is Las Brisas. Cagles is also good for the price. I haven't been to double nickel yet but they are pretty pricey. |

Places to avoid:
Spankys - If you're looking for the most over-rated eating experience in West Texas, then spankys is the place for you! Tasteless frozen fries, Dry non existent patties overloaded with condiments and a friend cheese log with little to no flavor! Don't get me wrong, homemade cheese "sticks" are amazing in concept but they don't add proper flavoring and spices to the batter to make it worthwhile. What's left is a case of clogged arteries and a possible stroke. Caprock Cafe - Horrible food and portioning. Not worth the price. Stay away from this shit hole. Good food includes: Gardskys on broadway - overall good food Five guys burgers and fries- It just opened up where moe's used to be (on 19th and quaker). It's a chain but they have great burgers and fresh cut fries! Much better quality then spankys. Ruby Tequilas - good tex mex Picante's- over on 34th... great food Home Cafe - By far one of the best eating experiences in Lubbock, it's on 34th st and has been featured in Texas Monthly but it's kind of pricey and it's only open for lunch mon - fri. Gourmet chef husband and wife team. It's worth checking out. Orlando's One guy from italy - Stick with the pizza or calzones Jumbo Joes - surprisingly very good burgers Jaliscos - cheap margaritas on tuesday and decent tex mex. Great Wall - Good food Saigon Cafe - Shoguns - Pretty good hibachi style food. I've heard tokyo's is better but i've never been. -------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

i know they're chain restaurants, but moving since moving to Colorado where the mexican food SUCKS, i really miss Rosas, Taco Bueno, Taco Villa, and any other mexican restaurant that includes spice in their food. That place at 82nd and University was pretty good. Don't know the name.

They are scattered all across Texas (excluding the South) and I think there are a couple in Oklahoma now. Taco Villa is also a local chain starting in Midland/Odessa. -------------------- |

Taco Bueno... best mexican fast food hands down. Started in Abilene and now it's a pretty nice chain in the south.

I can't remember the name of that place either, but it was awesome. There was a place in that area also that had salsa dancing most evenings. I think it was across the street from that restaurant. I think that restaurant's name had the word Margarita in it, but I could be wrong. Also, for a good chain restaurant, I always liked Cheddar's in Lubbock. Great place to eat good food at a cheap price. Plus, their happy hour had good prices on margaritas. M'm I had some good times there. Heh, the one in Austin had this waiter who I think had a crush on me or something... he would give me free drinks all the time. It ruled. He was black and way older than me though. |

The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Last time I was there was the summer of 2007, and I stayed 2 months. I think it was open then. I just didn't see it for some reason. Kinda in a ghetto area if I recall. Maybe that was part of the revamp zone though. I mean, it just seems the closer you get to MLK, the worse it is. |

I dont really consider that area very ghetto. It's all commercial property.
