Google maps images and menus need to be accessed and updated for they're years out of date. Highly recommend, great food, fast, and kind service. Limited food menu but lots of drink options, and full service bar. PS. They take their Smoking/None Smoking section division very seriously lol

Came here today after getting a recommendation from close family that went to Tech. Great atmosphere and Great service . We just had appetizers, we got the Jalapeño Poppers (10/10) and the Wonton Chips & White Queso (15/10). Surprised it was slower , such a nice hidden gem on University. 100% Recommend.

Hawaii 5.0 burger is the way to go! Excellent signature cocktails! I had the Pain Killer, with Rum, Pineapple & Creme of Coconut! Can’t beat $4 Domestic & $5 Import Bottle Beers. Cool Atmosphere & Friendly Staff!!

I've been going to savage for a few years, and I've gotta say I'm a huge fan of the changes. The Tiki theme is awesome, and done really well. I had the Zombie & the bao pork buns. The zombie was boozy, and brought me back to west coast tiki bars. 100% would get it again after trying the others. The bao was a 10/10. Service is always great, and all the staff really make you feel welcome. Cant wait for the full tiki menu to drop!!

From the service to the specialty drinks! Hands down the most amazing experience! The smell of leather just slaps you on the face followed by an amazing drink! Yeehaaaaw!!!

We needed a late night, local place to eat and have a drink. The bartender at Narrow Bar sent us here. It was a dive bar turned tiki lounge. Good vibes. No beer on tap, my only complaint.

I had planned to go to 4/20 brunch on Sunday, but the banker couldn't make it. I had a brand new high performance e-scooter I wanted to test out, so I ride up that evening to lay eye balls on it. It was easily found and I rolled inside with my scooter and asked if it was ok she said out on the patio, there was an outlet if I needed to charge. I asked what they had she said they had a collection of Lubbock IPA brews. She said what do you like? I said thick and bitter, she grabbed a dark port. It was wonderful. Next a pilsner and she chose a can. I said Bottle? She said that was her choice. Delicious. Thirst quenching. The next was barkeep's choice and she just poured the glass and it was like dessert but it took sweet like a lemon wafer. I found the staff and the folks very friendly and an inviting vibe. I picked the one night it dead, and it was awesome. I still plan on hitting that brunch. They were glad to tell me all about it because evidently it's amazing. The Brunch drink menu was enough for me to come and see.

If you're looking for the place to go and lift your spirits, look no further. Come to savage tavern. Halen is a menace in the kitchen, and will blow your mind with the top tier quality food and flavors. Let Rick at the bar treat you right, and show you how hospitality is supposed to be done. Hands down the highlight of our day.

The Nashville hot chicken and red velvet waffles were so fkn good!! The chicken had a delicious crispy batter, which was actually spicy and so juicy! The red velvet was drizzled with chocolate sauce and came with syrup on the side, which I appreciated to control the sweetness. The mimosa carafe was only $9! Such a steal! And they were delicious!! We tried grapefruit and cranberry. My son had the basket case (scrambled eggs and no veggies). The bacon and the papas were crispy, and he really enjoyed it!

Came here for brunch for the first time and we absolutely loved it! Service was great and the food was delicious. We got an order of B-bombs w/ caramel sauce, a brunch bowl w/ pulled pork and over easy eggs and the Cowboy Benedict. It was all so delicious! Perfect place to go when you don’t want to wait at more crowded places for breakfast. Will definitely be coming back here again!

Love the outdoor patio because I can drink and smoke and watch football on a big screen TV. 2.50 beers till 8:00. Will definitely come back to watch the tech game here or an NFL game. Staff was very courteous food was good.

Met a friend for an early lunch so this eatery was not busy, but the food was spectacular and the service was impeccable. Make sure you order the cheese sticks! I will definitely be returning. (Don't mind the green tint in the photos, I think they still had St. Paddy's lighting up lol)

Savage Tavern serves brunch until 3 and both the hash and chicken fried steak with eggs were amazing. The staff is very friendly and attentive. This place is undiscovered but with food like this it won’t take long!

After the remodel, the bar is a total vibe. Between cozy little nooks, and a patio with an atmosphere of pure relaxation. Enjoy the cool and 'mostly' calm essence inside with wickedly cool table chandeliers that'll keep your inebriated or otherwise chemically dependent alter egos well dazzled, or move to the bar for lively conversations and regularly refilled libations!

Came in for dinner and a cocktail on a Friday night. I ordered a pina colada after getting the menus myself. They gave me pineapple juice with liquor. I brought it back to the bar just to be told that they don’t have coconut cream. I went without the drink for the night and the food was mediocre. The service was understaffed and could’ve been better customer service. Maybe it was just this night but so far I’m not impressed.

This place used to be good. Now its a Tiki bar that doesn't serve beer on tap. I walked in at 1245, bar closes at 2AM. I got looked at like I have antlers growing out of my head. I hate this place now. This used to be my go to for years.

Decided to try out this place today because of all the good reviews. I had the churro chicken and waffle and it was flavorless. The batter nor the chicken was seasoned..it was overly coated and not cooked all the way through…so I got a layer of crust and a layer of wet coating, followed by a layer of unseasoned chicken…and the waffle…well it was just a regular waffle that was soggy because the hot chicken was placed on top of it. Thanks to snap chat for the pretty filter on the picture

Kinda cute on the inside but I'm not a fan. The drinks were subpar and we were overcharged. $30 for 2 drinks with the Tuesday discount doesn't sound right to me 🤔

I rarely leave bad reviews, but my experience at Savage Tavern was frustrating from start to finish. Our waitress only came to our table twice, and each time was nearly 30 minutes apart. I ordered a simple meal — 3 eggs with biscuits and gravy — but only received one egg. I politely mentioned it twice, yet the missing eggs were never brought out. When I finally expressed that I wasn’t satisfied with the meal, instead of trying to make it right, the staff argued with me back and forth. They eventually knocked off a couple bucks for the missing eggs, but I still ended up paying close to full price for a $16 plate I didn’t even get in full. The food itself wasn’t impressive enough to make up for the poor service and attitude. I won’t be back, and I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re expecting decent service or accountability.
