Loved pretty much everything about this place. Had a server named Hunter and he was awesome. The atmosphere was great. I could just sit back and look at all the decorations that were up or listen to music. The food was top notch. Got the Jumbo Joey and asked for medium. They brought out the steak and asked me to cut into it to make sure. It was more medium well than medium, but it was close. The flavor on the steak was phenomenal and I couldn't get enough I paired that with the side salad and mashed tators both were great as well as the bread I also got the Juicy Lucy IPA and that was smooth so I ordered a 64oz growler to go All in all i would highly recommend this place. Go early or get a reservation if you plan on it as it fills up fast If I venture back to Lubbock, I'll definitely stop again

Excellent food and service, terrific little find in Lubbock. Green chilies adorn the burger in perfect balance of flavor, heat and hand made burgers! The bun holds the burger that you customize yourself with the onion, pickles and tomatoes on the side. Fries are thin, not quite shoestring. Green chili corn is amazing, an eye opener! In house beer is on point…lovely, clean lager and delicious märzen. It may not seem like much on the outside but this place punches above its appearance…stop by and savor!

Busy evening we chose to go- was told 2 hr wait- and were assured they would text us. After an hour and 45 min we just checked in on our table and were then seated… good timing??? Maybe… Good service and good variety of choices. Fried green beans were suggested to me from a friend and they were indeed good- definitely above average!!! Chicken pot pie was delicious- super rich and filling! Was disappointed in the mac and cheese but it wasn’t bad. Good salads with the meal as well. Parking can be challenging on a Sat night but worth a brief walk- currently complicated by current road construction.

What we got: - Appetizer: Side winders - My entree: Miss Kitty Kat with Green Chile Cream Corn & Friend Green Beans - My husband’s entree: Lila’s honey pepper Ribeye with Fries & Cesar Salad The app was pretty good. It’s spicy, but we liked it. As for everything else? Not so much.. First and foremost… nothing was seasoned other than the appetizer, salad and the creamed corn. The steak, the fries, the fried green beans were all NOT seasoned. Lila’s honey pepper ribeye wasn’t seasoned, but there was a honey sauce poured over it (which tastes like warm honey - there really was minimal to no pepper taste) We asked the steaks to be cooked Med. Rare, but both came out raw/very rare. We had my husband’s steak sent back TWICE because it had a cool center, and it still came out like the picture; it was still SO raw. I didn’t bother to send mine back since I don’t care too much. But even if I don’t mind, it was pretty raw (the fat wasn’t melted in some parts) so I cut it and didn’t eat it. My husband ended up not eating his steak and we just left. His steak wasn’t taken off the tab, so that’s literally $30 in the trash LOL There was a live band playing, so that was nice? The sweet tea was good~ I’m a big dessert gal, but after eating the raw steak, I couldn’t bring myself to order/eat dessert. Started feeling a little icky. Safe to say, we’re not going back :)

taylor was our server and she was amazing. literally everything we had was delicious, my friend ordered the buffalo chicken pizza and it was cooked perfectly, my other friend got the ribeye and OMG😍 cooked to the perfect temperature and seasoned amazing. i took taylor’s recommendation and got the salmon, and it was to die for. this place deserves a 10/10 and so does taylor!!

We’ve been to Triple J’s several times now, and always have a good experience. We went on a double date this past weekend, and had some really enjoyable food. Emma was our server and she was delightful, helpful, and attentive. The cactus queso blanco is a family favorite! We are fans of queso in general lol but this is something special. It’s white spinach queso with a bit of a kick, served with fried wontons. Delicious. The wontons really make this dish unique, are always crispy, and even harder to stop eating than tortilla chips. Between the 4 of us, we tried a bit of everything, beer sampler, miss kitty kat ribeye, Lila’s honey pepper ribeye, chopped steak, and chicken tenders. My husband left with a growler of one of the local beers (I don’t drink beer so have no more to offer than this). The steaks came out perfectly cooked, the honey pepper ribeye was sweet and spicy, but not overbearing. Both people also said they enjoyed the chopped steak and the chicken tenders. We also enjoyed wedge and house salads, sweet potato fries, sweet potato custard, mac and cheese, French fries, and baked potato. The wedge salad stood out for me, there were tons of toppings (candied nuts, craisins, blue cheese crumbles, bacon), and the single cup of dressing was just enough to coat the complete the salad. The restaurant is well themed, with lots of decorations for talking points throughout the meal. It is a large restaurant but it can get crowded, so it is always a good idea to make a reservation. They do have an outdoor patio, as well as bar seating inside. Overall, Triple J’s is a fan favorite and we will definitely be back on our next visit!

Atmosphere was cool. Loved the live music and vibes. Our waiter, Jack, was attentive and friendly. My steak was above average. It wasn't anything to write home about but it was good. The honey pepper sauce was tasty, the honey was subtle. Coworker got the salmon salad and he said that was great. I'd come back!

My friend and I came here for dinner before going to a show at The Buddy Holly Hall. We made a reservation for 4:30. We planned to have dinner and a couple drinks before going to the show. Our food came out very fast, we didn't even finish one drink before we got our food. The waiter, Kyle, then brought us our check while we were still eating. He didn't even ask us if we wanted another drink, dessert, anything, he just brought our check. I thought that was weird, but set it to the side and continued eating and conversating. I planned to ask for another drink but before I even could, the waiter came up to us and said "I don't want to be rude but we have people waiting at the front to be seated. You can go to the bar if you want." We were not even there for an HOUR when he said that to us. And the bar was full, so that wasn't even an option. If we had sat there for 2+ hours just talking and not buying anything else, I might understand that request. But we made a reservation and we planned on having a few more drinks before leaving. That interaction absolutely ruined this place for me. I probably won't ever go back knowing that I'll be rushed out the door even with having made a reservation.
