Review highlights
Based on 2,066 reviewsRed Zone Cafe is generally praised for its flavorful American and Mexican-inspired dishes, generous portions, and attentive service, with several customers highlighting the friendly and consistent staff as a key strength. The atmosphere is often described as warm and welcoming, fostering a sense of community among regular patrons. However, some feedback points to inconsistencies in food quality, such as cold dishes or undercooked sides, which have impacted customer satisfaction on occasion. Additionally, recent changes in management appear to have influenced the overall experience for some visitors, leading to mixed impressions. Despite these issues, many still consider Red Zone Cafe a reliable spot for hearty breakfast and casual dining in Lubbock.
Sign on the front door stating they will be charging an extra .50 for each egg you order. That comes to an extra 1 charge for any egg plate you get! So I got their biscuits and gravy with sausage. Gravy was cold! This place has really gone downhill over the years. A different person is managing it, and it certainly shows. I think we are done with going there for a quick breakfast.
I have always loved this place for the food quality, taste, portions, and service. This last trip was even better with a fantastic server. Thanks
Me being a regular customer the food has always been satisfactory. Although today as a Recommendation of mine to my Church group of 30, 22 were disappointed! All of which was due to the "hashbrownes" being more so called "Half- Browned"! I will remain A regular customer Unfortunately the one and only time I put down for you Red-Zone Im let down in my Recommendation! Only because the #browns! Thats ridiculous!
Got the Texas nachos & Enchilada plate! Waitress was lovely and checked on us often despite being busy! Atmosphere was amazing, loved hearing and seeing the regulars get checked on. Nice to know some businesses still care for loyalty!! Food was delicious just like the first time we came, can't wait to come back!
Good food and excellent service. Wish I could remember our waitresses name. She's served us 3 times now and she is fantastic and gets rewarded accordingly.
The service was speedy and friendly. The food was good. The prices were very reasonable. I definitely would go back for the service alone. The place was busy but service was still speedy and friendly. We could tell the servers worked well together and helped each other out.
We ate at this place just to try something from our norm. I was glad we did. My son and I had the blt and onion rings. It was very good. My husband had the hamburger and liked it. My youngest ate the pancakes and loved them. The wait staff said they were short handed, but they still did an excellent job. We all ate for around 35. We were pleased and will back again sometime.
We usually come to Lubbock once every 3 months for my doctor's appointment and usually go to Orlando's. We found this place on accident and boy, am I glad we did. It's always good. The food, always on point and the atmosphere feels homey. Thank you guys for being awesome.
