The 509 Restaurant

Food and service is always great. All you can eat fish dinner is excellent and items on the salad bar are always fresh. Highly recommend.

This is an absolute fantastic family ran restaurant the staff is super friendly and makes you feel like you're part of the family right away the food is above and beyond good home cooked food out of all places in town I recommend coming here well worth your money. You should try the daily specials just like you're eating home with Mom.

They had lots of options on the menu. They had burgers, speciality sandwiches, salad bar, hot bar, shimp and just lots of different things to eat. I had the grilled chicken club sandwich with onion rings and had no complaints. My only complaint is that they are closed Saturday and Sunday. Would be a great motorcycle dinner ride from Lubbock.

I Love going here! The people are so friendly. Their catfish is Awesome! Relaxed atmosphere.

We ordered chicken fry to go, it was great. When we went to pick up our order the staff was very welcoming and funny. The meal was amazing! Love this restaurant.

We love coming to eat lunch here. BJ, Kim and Christal are always awesome, the food is fresh and tasty and the service is top notch.

What can I say another place I love to eat at the food is great and the staff is great. Hey their customers are great also, just as friendly as the staff. The staff really makes you feel at home.

I am glad I found this place. I love it and always try to eat here when I am in town. Great food and great service. Very nice folks.

What a great gem with great service and food. Reasonable price also. Thank you Rabbitt for your service.

Good food and good service. This was a busy place on Tuesday night. The staff handled it all with humor and the guys was as great as ever.

We came through here after a funeral service in town. She stayed open for us and we’re thankful she did. Food was fresh and made well. Burger and fries were perfect for a pre drive home meal. Not too heavy but filling for all. Super friendly staff and owners. Highly recommend stopping if you’re going through town.

Food was excellent, staff is great. I've never had a bad experience eating here!!!!! Highly recommended. Best hamburger steak, chicken fried steak or catfish in the area!!!!!!!!!!

Second time to come here for the fish fry. Some of the fish was a little over cooked, but that's better than being raw. Of course, it's Friday night and they were slammed with basketball kids. However, the food is awesome! It's good, home cooked food like momma makes. The pinto beans were wonderful as was the banana pudding. The potatoes are fried with onions and who doesn't like that! The waitress was running her legs off, but still managed to check on us frequently. They have a small salad bar that you can help yourself to with both hot and cold foods. $25 is not a bad deal for all the fried catfish you can eat for two people. BTW, saw some chicken fried steak go out that covered the plate! Gotta try that sometime if I can stay away from the catfish! !

Delightful little mom & pop. Nothing fancy, just good down home food. Some choices made me laugh because it reminded me of things my grandma would make. The owner visited with the guests and music played in the background that some people would sing along with. I would go back.

The best burgers! Great waitress! Great atmosphere! Great cooks! Fresh food! Big burgers for the price! It's just the best! TRY THIS PLACE ! U will not regret it!!

The chicken fried steak was great with a creamy white gravy under the steak instead of on top. Great home-style food.

Always get our food to go. Great food and friendly staff.

I ordered the all you can eat catfish that came with a salad bar, and everything was good! The service was good as well although we did have to wait a while to get a drink refill. I will definitely be returning.

We were here visiting family and they suggested this place. I'm glad they did!!! I got the AYCE catfish. It was amazing! My husband got the wings. We also ordered fried pickles. They were skinny slices that had an amazing batter on them. I HATE pickles, but they told me to at least try them. They were SO GOOD! And their Ranch dressing was awesome. We WILL be back!! I want to try the Chicken Fried Steak.

Everything you’d want from a small town diner. Staff were very friendly, food was amazing (one of the best green chili burgers I’ve ever had) and the atmosphere was quaint. We’ll certainly be back in the future.

I went here for the first time with my family a couple of days ago. It was great! The facility was clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly, attending to our needs. The food was delicious, with large portions. It was very affordable as we spent about $140 for a group of 10. They also offer all-you-can-eat at the salad and hot bars. If you're looking for a little slice of traditional southern hospitality and American food, this iss the place.

Stopped by for the chicken strips that were delicious. Had enough to take some home for the husband.

BJ/Kim and the gang ALWAYS do their best! The Chicken Fried Steak, Chicken Strips and Fried fish is all hand breaded from scratch in their restaurant. They provide good food, good service and lots of good laughs!

This place is just plain GOOD. They never disappoint me. And Friday ALL YOU CAN EAT FISH........AMAZEBALLS!!!!

BJ and crew saved the day january 16. 2025 I asked BJ to cater 50 people the.next day for lunch after funeral services on Sundown. Food and sevice was great there was enough food for a 100 people everyone loved it. Thank you Charles Carpenter

Amazing food, amazing staff, amazing prices. The Catfish was exceptional crisp on the outside, flaky and soft inside. I would say the perfectly seasoned and cooked catfish. The salad and hot bar were above par, and well stocked. You should definitely hit this place when in Levelland.

Every single time I've been here- tastes like my Grandmother came straight down from heaven and cooked it all! It's the very best old-school salad bar you can find! Every entree I've ever ordered is absolutely delicious! Service is impeccable too! I cannot love this place enough! You ain't gonna find better in this area!

Wonderful local choice! We try to eat here once a week. Service and food are excellent!!

Very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Awesome food. Great salad bar. Delicious homemade desserts. Owner present and personally welcomed us to her 509:-)

Their gizzard's are the best in the 806. I have never had a bad meal there and their wait staff is second to none. I'm going to go ahead and say it's the best little home cooking diner in Levelland, maybe Texas.

This restaurant has real home cooked food that is as authentic as authentic can be.I had to he chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes toast and corn from the hot bar and salad from their salad bar,so so good.I highly recommend this place if you want down home cooking,laid back feeling and friendly staff at your beck and call you can pretty much only find in a small town

Stopped here on the way through town to a Friday night football game. The special was all-you-can-eat catfish. It was excellent. Great salad bar. Hot bar was also excellent. The hushpuppies and mini blueberry muffins were fantastic. The staff were friendly and helpful. Nicknames were great. We will be back!

This was a stop in to go order for dinner salads for my mom and l. We both had chicken salads. One grilled the other fried. Food was good and lots of it! Not too expensive but it took a long time to get my order.

If you are interested in 100% southern homestyle cooking, then 509 is the restaurant for you. They have an amazing group of servers that bring a new meaning to right at home. Bring the family and enjoy what a true ma and pop small-town dinner has to offer.

This was a nice surprise. I met 2 friends for lunch here today. The restaurant has a good selection of food. The portions and prices are both quite reasonable. In fact, my stacked enchilada dish was too big to eat in one sitting, but it was tasty. I particularly enjoyed the tortilla chips which I got before my meal arrived. They were yummy and just enough to get me ready for the food to come, but not enough that I filled up. My friends both had burgers, and I must say that one's tater tots looked SO good! They both enjoyed their burgers. What was particularly impressive is that our server didn't mind that one friend brought her own bun for dietary reasons. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the food.

We’ve gotten take out from here a couple of times. Both times, the food was average. Edible but nothing we’d crave again. We recently switched gears and ate here twice in person. It’s was terrific both times. The steak fingers are not quite as good as the Dixie Maid over in Paducah, but they are far above ones I’ve had any place else. My family enjoyed their meals, as well. I think they had cheeseburgers, a ham club, and a Philly sandwich. The service is great. Friendly. Personable. What you’d expect from a small town non-chain. It’s got a good atmosphere. And I think every single song playing in the background was a 10. We hope to go back in person again.

Update: I did not in fact order the all you can eat as there were signs saying it didnt start until 2 p.m. i ordered the fish plate which I understood should have been fillets. Not nuggets. It was my first visit there so I did not know what was what. Catfish should taste like catfish not nuggets. I arrived at 1:30 p.m. on Fri 3-11-22. I was told there was an all you can eat catfish.So I was excited. There was a sign near the entrance stating that all you can eat did not start until 2 p.m. So I ordered the catfish dinner thinking I was going to receive some fillets. Instead I received pieces of fish...nuggets. They were not flavorful, I had to drown my fish in lemon juice for flavor. Paid $14 for a lunch platter. The staff was freindly and prompt. However, the fish did not meet my expectations as far as taste and the type of fish I was expecting.

You know it it was my second time going and I went with my sister and brother-in-law. It didn't take them that long to attend us and it didn't take them that long to bring her food out. But when you need a refill on your drink now it's hard to get the attention of a waitress. Sometimes they can be rude. But I will keep on going cuz I love those tasty gizzards.

Frozen out of the box, then heated. Service was lacking on the visit. UPDATE...Went there as I was passing through. Not sure why after the last visit of frozen out of the box microwaved food and lack of service. Waited 10 minutes at the door to be greeted. Finally seated, Waited another 20 minutes and left as I was never greeted or approached by wait staff.

I was really wanting the catfish from this place. Was so disappointed when it came out wasn't hot at all and just didn't taste good. Onion rings and zucchini was good. Food made me feel so sick.
