Triple J Chophouse & Brew Co.

When you’re in Lubbock, you stop by Triple J’s. I was feeling carnivorous and decided to try the Honey Pepper steak, medium rare with a side of sweet potato custard and steamed broccoli. Unfortunately my steak came out on the more rare side and my waitress was no where to be found so I decided to just enjoy my rare steak. The flavors were delicious but I wish it was cooked a little bit more. The sweet potato custard was creamy and also chunky to which I loved and the steamed broccoli had a nice old bay spice blend on top. The restaurant was decorated with a lot of character, I definitely felt like I was in another world but enjoyed my experience.

Cool dinner spot is the go-to for students when family visits. Decorated in west Texas memorabilia, the inside is tasteful and food freshly prepared. For this visit and rating, we visited during the off season which was still surprisingly busy but nothing like the long waits seen when Tech is in class. Our prime rib and chicken pot pie were delicious large servings. Be careful not to fill up on the warm bread! Waiter was attentive and food was warm. Be careful with expectations during the school year as service, quality, and wait times all tend to suffer greatly.

This was my first trip, so I wanted to be a bit more thorough in my comments. Two people with a drink each was about $100 including tip.

The building is very eclectic and a bit dated in it's furnishings. The booth seats were a somewhat lower than expected.

We were helped by a very nice young lady, Tatum. She was patient and put up with my corny puns etc. She was the highlight of our experience. It went down from there. Our food came out randomly; entree and appetizers came together then our salads came last. I ordered a steak, medium rare, but it was more rare and not rested. The food was brought by another person and we were never asked about any steak sauce or if the steaks were properly cooked. We asked to see a manager but never got an answer about that. Finally Tatum came and asked how everything was but we were basically done.

So, not a great experience.

It's very nice place with great service but we didn't care to much on the food. We had the chicken fry, hamburger steak and the sirloin steak.
The queso was very good.

3.6 stars for the visit.

I recommend the beer flight and especially the Red Raider beer. The nacho appetizer was HUGE and tasty but the meat on the nachos was a bit dry. All the cheese made up for it though. Otherwise, the food was good, and they offered to put actual blue cheese on my salad when I ordered blue cheese dressing (obviously a plus).
