Lugo's Mexican Grill Ridgecrest Reviews
So I just visited Lugos Grill this was my very first time eating from there. I didn’t dine in because my dog was with me… However I did order to go I ordered the Pastrami Burger Special lets just say this burger exceeded my expectations 🥰 Very delicious very tasteful seasoned to perfection ❤️ It reminds me of the old school pastrami stand in Los Angeles called Johnny Pastrami I haven’t never had any place to me top johnny pastrami in my opinion… Until Now‼️ I will definitely be back I mean even the ketchup is good and my husband don’t even like ketchup on his fries but he loves Lugos I give them 💯
Staff was outstanding. Service was quick and food tasteful and hot.
This restaurant is the best one here, friendly here , VERY friendly! Love this place!
Great place to eat locally. Friendly and attentive staff! Great variety of food as well as great tasting food!
This is the only place we eat when we are in town. My husband just love it here
Mom and dad took me to lunch there. It was a real and quite restaurant. We were invited to come in and sit where we liked. The waitress was really nice and helpful. The food came pretty quick and I really enjoyed it. My dad says he goes there a lot and always has great service and the people always helpful and nice. I know the next time I go back to ridgecrest. I am going to go back and eat there again.
Lugo’s Grill is one of those places that just gets it right. The food is consistently good—fresh, flavorful, and well-portioned. Whether you’re grabbing a burger, steak, or one of their pasta dishes, everything comes out hot and well-prepared. But what really sets Lugo’s apart is the service. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and on top of things without being overbearing. You feel genuinely welcomed every time you walk in, and that kind of hospitality makes a big difference. The atmosphere is casual but comfortable, making it a great spot for both family dinners and laid-back nights out. It’s clean, well-kept, and has a nice local feel to it. Easily one of the best sit-down restaurants in Ridgecrest. If you haven’t been to Lugo’s yet, you’re missing out.
Just finished breakfast here. Food is good and plentiful. I really loved the home fries! The real story was the service. Everyone was on top if it start to finish. I was in management within the service industry for many years. I love it when servers communicate expectations seamlessly. Great dining experience!
The nicest and most polite staff I have ever experienced anywhere. I come here every time I come to visit my family in Ridgecrest. I highly recommend you stop by and try them for yourself. Great food and amazing Bloody Mary’s!
Very clean, very friendly, and an overall great experience for a family owned diner, these guys rock and roll! My personal favorite as far as Mexican food goes in Ridgecrest. Plus I came in just for a couple of drinks and was immediately served/tended to by 3 different staff members with a warm and inviting smile on their faces! Chips were warm and the salsa was delicious along with my strawberry margarita.(Your server Caden(with a k?) deserves a raise he pays more attention to detail as far as servers go). Highly recommend for a family outing or just a couple; I came here by myself so if you're a loner, you're still encouraged to come here :). Happy Father's Day Sincerely, The Russian Cowboy
Food was good, bloody Mary was much bigger than expected and topped well. Service was slow toward then end of my meal, had to ask to pay after sitting for some time.
Friendly staff, clean space. But the sandwiches didn't met our expectations. They were a bit small (considering the price) and extremely salty.
acceptable but not outstanding. service somewhat slow. somewhat pricy but not excessive. nothing wrong with the food but neither was it exceptional.
As of February 2025, I couldn't help noticing their huge price hike! Unfortunately, the quality of their food didn't meet the price tag. Other restaurants in Ridgecrest charge the same amount, although with much better food quality and presentation. I've been going to Lugo's for the past 7 years. And I can honestly say that their upgrades in re-modeling have changed for the better, although their food menu and quality of food have not changed at all. Just their price tag!
Another update: This is a $15 salad, just in case you were curious. /Disappointed Post pandemic update: Decided to try a club sandwich. I paid how much for this single slice of turkey? $11. I also have an unknown expense for the addition of cheese. I haven't seen the bill yet. So, I used to eat here 4 or 5 days a week. Miguel's service is what made it worthwhile. The food was ok, not amazing, but reliable. Every time we order something suffers from cross contamination like onions in the pancakes or tuna on the enchiladas. The salad bar was removed a while back. It wasn't huge but it was an improvement over the iceberg side salad. Today I got to see new menus. They included price increases of $1-2 per entree so I'm done... This food isn't worth what they're charging. Update: Today they let a big dog in. Not a service animal, just a big old dog. Wtaf?
