Avis sur Gator's Bayou Lubbock
Love this place! The food is authentic Cajun, especially if you order the spicy menu items, beers are cheap, and staff is great.
We had an excellent meal today at Gators Bayou, and it was a joy from start to finish. The service was thoughtful, the atmosphere was friendly, and everything felt welcoming. Our waitress, Brinleigh, took our order right away and made sure our food arrived just as we hoped. She came by several times to check on us and kept the water refilled, which I truly appreciate. She is a wonderful young lady and did a fantastic job. We could not have been more pleased with our visit today, and we look forward to coming back.
Food was very good. My kids love the kids meals there. A little expensive but worth it
I ate there late one afternoon after running errands, they were maybe 30% busy. I had the blackened catfish with corn on the cob, a cup of gumbo with shrimp added, a cup of red beans and rice, and the bread pudding. It was all pretty authentic but not too (spicy) hot, which is fine for the Lubbock region. The only regret was the bread pudding. It was too dense, very very dry, and a bit lacking in flavor. I've had much better when I used to live in southeast Texas and Louisiana, I'm not sure what went wrong with that dish (maybe microwave reheating contributed). Next time it's going to be cheesecake for dessert, because I'll definitely be coming back. I always tip generously if my server refills my glass and check on me regularly, and my waitress earned it this time. Gator's Bayou has been a favorite of mine since they opened. I'm dying to return for the crawfish bisque, etoufee, and maybe jambalaya next time!! They have excellent beer selection and great cocktails, but I can't have them with my COPD right now, or I would have ordered them just to improve my review. Definitely should try them out, Lubbock!!
This was our (husband, son, and me) first time here and it was very lovely. The food came out hot and fresh. Seasoned very well. The staff was attentive and friendly. Our waitress was the best. Since it wasn't too busy she took the time to talk to us and even made some suggestions about the drinks. She made us feel like friends instead of just more customers. The vibe wad real laid back and chill. Will definitely be going back for more.
Great food, good game on, great atmosphere. One cannot go wrong.
Everything ordered was great with the shrimp and grits being the exception. They were watery and lacked the flavor you would expect. The manager offered to replace the meal with something else! Service was excellent and food came out in a timely manner!!
Music was too loud Disappointing beer list Food was good; my wife really liked her fried shrimp. My stir fry was good. Waitress was very good. 3% charge for using credit card is BS.
I would describe this place as a bar that serves food. It definitely had that bar vibe going on. We went for the food and was not disappointed. I had the chicken fried steak. It said hand breaded, I asked before ordering if it really was. The waitress said yes so I went ahead and ordered it. It was the best one I've had in a very long time. My wife had the shrimp alfredo. She really loved it. It had a lot of shrimp also. I love Dr. Pepper and theirs is mixed to perfection. Not since I have toured the Dr. Pepper plant have i had a perfectly balanced one. That made me very happy. They changed the Dr. Pepper it no longer the best in lubbock. It's sub ok now. Put the Dr. Pepper back like it was. That was a main reason we returned. I took a star away for the depressing Dr. Pepper.
Okay food, okay service. I can make better Cajun food than what's served here so I wouldn't waste the money if you're looking for that authentic Cajun flavor. Plus it's more expensive than it should be. But hey, if you want to have an overpriced bland lunch/dinner in a snobby environment, this is the place for you!
We sent our first dishes back because they tasted like tomato soup mixed with rice, and when we ordered the fettuccine Alfredo, the sauce was liquid and everything was bland. For $106 dollar tab, this experience was disappointing and we will not be coming back.
It's more of a bar atmosphere now than a restaurant it used to be. We asked for bread our meal and received 2 slices of toasted bread. The hushpuppies with my boyfriend's meal were so hard he said he could have broke glass with them!! The Chicken Ala Mier was extremely dry, I ate it, but I had to drink all my drink to get it down. :( normally it has a gravey with it not this time. Sad. We won't be back to Gator's Bayou in Lubbock Texas ant time soon.
Ordered out and catfish, crawdads tails, and shrimp were all bland with no seasoning in the breading. Dirty rice and red beans and rice were overly spicy to a point the flavor wasn’t enjoyable. Portions are also an issue. If a family of three orders a meal and the price comes out to $60 you should probably get a reasonable amount of food.
I was super excited to try this place but couldn’t have been more disappointed. The waitress was not attentive, my drink remained empty while she stood at the corner of the bar talking and drinking from her Stanley. Asked for extra shrimp on my pasta it came with a total of 7 small shrimp literally the tiny shrimp not even the medium. Asked if this was extra- the waitress said she asked the kitchen and they said yes they put extra, then said she went and talk to the manager and was told 4 for normal and 3 when you order extra. Ummm 5.99 for 3 tiny over cooked shrimp?!?! As a previous manager when someone came to me with a complaint I would always follow up with the customer but nope not here.. It was also suppose to be mild but has so much heat I couldn’t eat it. Yes I can handle heat but I didn’t want heat today. My husband’s crawfish was also way overcooked. The prices are ridiculously high for what you get. We will not be going back.
