Aspen Creek Grill - Lubbock

Veterans Day treated us to a great dinner this evening! Calan was our waiter. He did an outstanding job. Very attentive kept my water glass full! We started off with an appetizer of fried mushrooms. A very large portion and really good! Then came our salad, which was very fresh and plenty of toppings. (We dove off into this a little quick and did not get a picture). We love the fact they had egg and tomato, and piled on top. Oh, croutons were extra fresh and delicious, had to put that in there because some places the croutons are hard and old. Waited just a little bit for the entrée, and it did not disappoint. It was definitely worth the wait. We ordered the chicken fried chicken and it came with two decently portion sized breaded chicken breast and homemade mashed potatoes smothered with a delicious cream gravy. All in all, definitely recommended! I know I used the word delicious in this quite a bit, but it was really tasty.

Really awesome food. Our server Qua knew the menu backwards and forwards. We had the Bison Berger, which was beyond juicy tasty and amazing, and the delish Fish Tacos. Also the perfectly prepared fried mushrooms as an appetizer. Definitely coming back. The menue is extensive and couldn't ask for more friendlier service.

Wow; an 8 oz. sirloin with 2 sides for $13.99?? The steak had excellent flavor too! Nice setting - the background music was pleasant (not overwhelming as some other places, lots of TV’s around… I’ll be back! Oh, and Brenda was fantastic as my server; very attentive AND helpful. Certainly an A+ experience; value, quality and care. Congrats, Aspen Creek Grill - and thank you, Brenda. :)

Our server tonight was Justin and everything was wonderful! His awesome personality and recommendations were very good. Honestly, by far our BEST experience here. We had the green chile queso with chips and my husband asked about the salsa after it was offered for an additional charge. Then we split the mile high spicy meatloaf…GREAT taste! Highly recommend if you haven’t had it with the sautéed mushrooms, oh my wonderful! Our daughters split the country fried chicken and everything was delicious! Thank you so much!

My wife and I had a fantastic dinner this evening. We had potato skins appetizer, and taking most of them home for later. My wife ordered the Hawaiian chicken with Mac & cheese and sautéed button mushrooms. I had the Mile High Meatloaf with mashed potatoes, and off the cob elote. For desert, we had fried cheesecake. The food and service were phenomenal!

My son and daughter in law took me here for my birthday today. Service was great. It is a Saturday evening and the wait time was only 25 minutes compared to an hour or more at other places here in Lubbock. Service was great. The waitress was attentive. The atmosphere was chill and relaxed. I will definitely go again.

Aspen Creek Grill is so amazing! I got the smothered chicken with a side salad and mashed potatoes and the food was fantastic! Best grilled chicken I’ve ever had! Service was great too and my waitress was so nice! I loved the Atmosphere too as the place looked really cool! Overall: 5 stars

We are elderly and wanted a quiet place in the restaurant so we could visit with our friends. First people seated next to us were a family of five with three small children. We have grandchildren. We understand. Second seating next to us was a family birthday celebration with older teenagers..same. My wife ordered the Tuesday $12 pork chop when server returned and said they were out of pork chop. So my wife ordered the smothered chicken thinking it was a $12 item who server did not explain it wasnt a $12 item until we got the check. I ordered the country fried steak with substitute fries instead of mashed potatoes and asked about a dinner salad which the server said was included as a side with the meal. So…now the check came with all the additional charges for up price on the smothered chicken, additional charge for the salad. And the country fried steak was grisly…not good at all. Server Kassie was not passionate at all about our questions, as matter of fact quite direct in that’s the menu and not apologetic about our mis understanding of what she previously explained. So, not good service, not so good food and quiet request for a table was absolutely ignored. Not gonna be back soon.

Decided to stop in for dinner since it was close to where we were. Our server Rylan was very nice and efficient. He checked on us numerous times. I had the shrimp and grits with green chili. OMG it was delicious! Country fried steak was delicious. But the topping to the meal was the fried cheesecake. You have to try this! Wow it was amazing. The manger came by and spoke with us and was very friendly. Restaurant was clean and it was busy. Would we eat here again?? Yes we definitely would!

Arrived at 9:06 Server Ashley Ordered 2 waters lemons Asked for more time to order We ordered 2 grilled fish tacos & a extra side baked potato We waited for food & our server We didn't get our food until 9:57pm The food was it warm at best the tortillas were flaking. She said she would bring us more waters & didn't return until 10 minutes later with no waters. Then she brought the check shortly after. The is the first time we've had bad service we've been here 4th time being here, worst experience so far.

Aspen Blu Sirloin never disappoints. Large portion and Delicious. Service was good and server friendly and attentive

A solid restaurant with good service and good food, reminds me the Cotton Patch and Applebees or TGIFridays. I was traveling through town and it was recommended for their steak. We ordered an fried mushrooms and they were so good. My guest ordered the chicken fried steak and it was over fried and the meat was tough, he liked the mashed potatoes and gravy. I ordered a sirloin and it was good, it was cooked to my order. The manager came by and offered a first timer free dessert or return coupon so we ordered a dessert and it was a nice surprise. The restaurant is clean and the people are friendly, I imagine it's a local hangout for everyone to enjoy.

Enjoyed an ice cold Revolver Blood and Honey beer at the bar and split the shrimp and grits with my other half. Grits were great and had just a little bit of kick to make them interesting. The red sauce was extremely cheesy and flavorful.

We had a family dinner, and the ribs were delicious enough for a 2nd meal. Great chicken fried steak with a flavorful gravy. Service was great.

Jaycee our server was fast and displayed true Texas hospitality. Always checking on us to make sure all was good. Food was amazing. Sweet and spicy salmon, Monte Cristo sandwich and country fried steak all highly recommended. Seriously if you're in the area, stop in to eat.

Everything was delicious. Our server was really friendly. The manager came over and since it was our first time she gave us a card for a free dessert and then we get a discount at our next visit and then the visit after that is I believe a buy one, get one free entrée. We got there right about five so it was pretty empty, we were seated right away it did not take long for our food at all. It's cute, when you pull up it looks like a cabin or something in the woods.

Food was amazing!! Everything! Fried pickles, steak, ribs. Peppercorn sauce was top tier for the steak! Must get!

I ate lunch there today I ordered a ribbye But they brought me a sirloin , and when I told them That it was a sirloin and not a ribeye the manager came out to explain how UT was a sirloin like I didn't know my cuts of steak. Then my wife ordered wings and they air fried them til they were burnt like she was supposed to eat them. The nachos were very salty. Overall experience was at a 0 and we will never go back!

We were surprised at how delicious and tender the meat was. The whole family ate their fill, the children had dessert, and we washed it all down with drinks. Thank you.

The dishes are made with fresh ingredients and care. Service is reliable and thoughtful. The restaurant is well organized. It leaves a positive impression each time.

My son and I came here for dinner on one of my recent trips Lubbock. Every time I roll into town, I am ready for a nice hearty dinner before bedtime. I always tell my son to pick a new to us spot and this is what he came up with. Parking was plentiful like most places in the area. Customer service was outstanding. Dustin was so attentive, gave us recommendations and took great care of us. The inside is super comfortable and inviting like they advertise. The menu is pretty large and has lots of options. We ordered the Green Chili Queso to begin. They boast on their menu that everything is made from scratch and I believe them, but the queso had a very processed taste to it that wasn't that tasty. My son on the other hand loved it. For my entree I went with the Ribeye and Pow Wow Shrimp combo with a side of off the cob elotes and green beans. I asked for a medium rare steak and it came out more along the line of a overcooked medium steak. Flavor was there though. The sides were both mediocre at best, they could've use a little more seasoning. The Pow Wow Shrimp was lightly battered shrimp that was tossed in creamy sweet chili sauce. It was pretty tasty but the sauce definitely made it lose any of its crispiness. Overall, this was a decent meal. My son enjoyed it but I thought it was just ok. I may come back at some point, but I'm not rushing back anytime soon.

I'll start with we go to this exact restaurant all the time we check In With our number and rarely have a problem. Today we had many issues and a very rude manager VJ was rude to my daughter my mom and my dad and this gentleman should not have a job as a manager for a food industry, but this has always been a great place but this guy was terrible and I dont think we will be returning any time soon

We ordered the 6 oz sirloin and the chicken fried steak. The price was good and in line with most restaurants. The food tasted great. Portions were good sized. Service was good. It was Father's Day and we checked in on wait list we needed a wheelchair accessible table and they were able to accommodate us easily. It was a great experience

We stopped by for a quick bite on our way out of Lubbock and really enjoyed the food. I'm sure the service is wonderful as well, but we were in a bit of a hurry and had to get our food to go. We lived in Lubbock for a few years just over a decade ago. It's nice to see so many wonderful new restaurants. Next time we're back in town we'll make sure to stop and linger so we can enjoy the full experience at Aspen Creek Grill.

I first tried Aspen Creek a few years ago when they opened, and it wasn't my favorite. I haven't been back, but I'm open to trying places a second time. My lunch was perfect. Delicious burger and fries and the service was outstanding.

The food never disappoints! The steaks are always delicious and the ribs fall off the bone! Don't forget to get the spinach artichoke dip! Delicious! The music isn't too loud and the service is excellent!

Service was excellent. Food is bland.....so bland. I can see why it was full of old people for sure. I got the chicken fried chicken and it had no seasoning and my broccoli tasted like fish??? Weirdly.... I didn't have the heart to tell our waiter I didn't like the food because he was so nice.

The food was really good and the service was as well. We will definitely visit again when we are in Lubbock!

I always try to come on Monday's for the $12 8oz steak deal! Great service. My only complaint is that the sides tend to be either over or under seasoned, but the entrees are always delicious!

This place will really surprise you. This is going to sound really strange but I actually prefer their ribeye steak to anywhere else in town! Great drink prices and prompt service.

Walked in right before 2pm... we were marooned in the bar area for 10 plus minutes without seeing a server. Left and went to Torchy's across the way...

I come here every Monday and tonight's service and food was unacceptable. The temperature was so cold we weren't even able to enjoy the meal, my steak was cooked wrong and was tough I always get medium. My green beans had a long string of hair as I was chewing. I asked for the fish to be fried hard and it was soggy. This has been a place I visit every Monday and I brought my Family and I'm very disappointed.

Aspen Creek never disappoints, you just can't beat great prices for great food! Any time my husband and I have to decide on where to go, Aspen creek is always top choice. Their daily deals are also wonderful!

- Food is 'okay' on a good day. Fried pickles are almost always good... no sweet potato fries, though, serious disappointment. - Service can be awesome... or they can forget you're on the wait list and act like they're doing you a favor by letting you eat there... both have happened several times. - Ambiance is nice. There are plenty of comparable places in Lubbock that are consistently good at this price-point. I've decided not o roll the dice at Aspen Creek anymore. I think I'm done with them. Not recommended.

Stayed at hotel nearby so walked over here for dinner. Immediately noted to friend, "this is Chilis with a lodge theme." Nothing subsequently changed that view. Nice waiter. Everything else was fine. At best. Med rare steak was medium well, but rib eye so still tender and juicy. Burger was absolutely HAMMERED into oblivion. Nearly inedible. Bacon so thick and tough you couldn't bite through it. "Lodge Old Fashioned" a flavorless watery standard well drink gone in two sips. Decor is supposed to be "Colorado ski lodge" but it looks like old dusty south Texas ranch, with incongruous ski posters. It was relatively cheap. Best I can say about it.

Worst experience I've had a at restaurant!! Ignored by my waitress, had to get another waiter take our order. Manager was made aware and did nothing about it!! First in the door last severed!! Its experiences like this that can ruin a restaurant, competition is steep!!

The service was outstanding, the food was great and served quickly. Our first time there and we did enjoy. Comfortable place for families with children.

The food was Amazing ! The porterhouse steak was the best ever . The old fashioned drink with toasted marshmallow for Christmas time was so good

Wanted burger. Regular menu has double meat burgers only. Who needs 1/2 pound of meat? Ordered child's. 1small meat patty but burned to hockey puck on charcoal bread. Would have sent back but appetite gone by then. Need to find someone with a little pride to quality control. Went with friend because she had coupon. Never again. Why is it so hard to find good food? For price it should at least be edible.

Food was delicious; but they sat a party of 8 young people in the booth next to us, and they were so loud we couldn't converse with one another!!

We go to the restaurant once a week for a steak dinner. The steaks are delicious and the service is excellent.

Cole was an amazing server and he was so kind. we're from out of town visiting our daughter and had an enjoyable dinner thanks to Cole!

Just your average chain restaurant. Don't expect spectacular food, but you can get a decent meal! I'd say that it's comparable to cheddars and chili's. Really enjoyed our queso and chips! The mac and cheese was just cold dry noodles. Service was slow, but we were seated fast!

What's for lunch??? We had the chops, really good but missed the honey lime sauce they were out didn't have.

Kylar was very nice and attentive. Had the country fried pork and it was very good and filling!

Aspen creek is one of our go to places. They have different specials throughout the week. The atmosphere is nice. You can go in and sit and have a convo with your friend. They have a good size bar area and lots of drink specials. The service is amazing. Everyone is so friendly and helpful My boyfriend loves the potatoe skins appetizer and I love the sirloin steak, burgers are good and so is the chicken. Never a disappointment.

On our road trip from Houston, we decided to stop in Lubbock to try Aspen Creek Grill. I was so excited based on some of the yelp reviews, but quickly became disappointed. Here is our experience: Waitress: Gina 10/10 Appetizers: chips and queso with chili added 8/10 Potato skins 9/10 Fried pickles 2/10 beyond salty Entree: Cajun catfish 4/10 again so salty!! We had it with season riced and a side of elote. The kids had steak bites which appear to be 4oz and a loaded baked potato for $8.99 ($7.99 + $1). Great deal for kids meal. We rate 9/10 Dessert: fried cheesecake 8/10 I would totally rate this restaurant higher if the food wasn't so salty. There needs to be quality checks from time to time. The service was excellent which warrant extra stars. I would not come back.

Really good steak but they mixed up my boyfriends with mine, I like mine medium rare and he likes his medium. Really fast service. Drinks were strong (for me anyways) but still good. When we went it was towards the end of the night and the waitress was still really polite. My son liked it there as well and they have a decent kids choices on the menu for decent prices-I was impressed. Would definitely come here again.

Food is consistently good and the entire menu has a diversified taste to satisfy the pickiest eater. Portion sizes are large while price is in the midrange. Specials are where you find the deals.

The food was not great - it was "mid" at best. I ordered the bow tie pasta which comes in a Parmesan sauce with grilled chicken, bacon, and onions. I added a side of mashed potatoes since it comes with no side. I wasn't surprised by the lack of side on a pasta, but the pasta was located in a section that indicated it would come with a side so I was a little surprised when my server said it would come with a side so I ordered mashed loaded mashed potatoes. All the food was fairly disappointing. The bacon was fatty and salty and it ruined both meals. Even the strawberry ranch water - a mixed drink containing strawberry puree, tequila and soda water - was disappointing. The server was decent and the staff friendly. I will return in the future to try something different and hopefully update this review.

Food, Sri LS and exceptional service. Our go to place when we visit midland. We always get the peppercorn tenderloin, and the fried cheesecake is a must

Visited once again, I'm telling you, Seidii the bartender, 100% on spot with her service... It's always nice to feel the welcome like you're coming home on a Winters eve!! Recognized me right away, Fast, Service, great conversationalist ..... other employees are super friendly and very conversationalist as well!! Keep up the great work aspen grill ! You have a great team !!

I've been here a couple times, it's ok. Nothing is really that great or special. It's not a place that I'm dying to go back to.

The food was awesome. Everything was seasoned so nicely. Everyone at our table liked it all. The service was great. Best service we have had in a long time. The ambiance was great not to Loud we could actually visit and hear each other. We will be returning. 5 star

Updated review. I was so disappointed and embarrassed for choosing Aspen Creek for a lunch meeting. It didn't look clean-at 11 AM. Floor had crumbs, windows had smudges. I was taken aback, but we forged ahead. Server was ok, but distracted. Soups obviously sat there a while before we got them. They had a lovely skin on the top. We stirred and they were kind of warm, but extra salty (like I felt after lunch) Sandwiches were ok, never offered drink refills or anything until time for dessert and check. I was embarrassed to have even suggested Aspen Creek-and won't make the mistake again.

My mom and I love going to lunch here. Love the shrimp appetizer but I think they should put them in blue corn tortillas and make them into tacos!

Okay I was traveling through Texas and I wanted a steak. Slim pickings on Yelp in my opinion but this place had many reviews saying steaks were good. Well the reviews were correct. Very good steak with peppercorn sauce. Mashed potatoes good and steamed broccoli excellent. Wednesdays are half priced bottles of wine. The waiter was obviously very new and so nervous. But all was good.
