Cattle Baron Steak & Seafood, Lubbock, Texas Restaurant Details

Food:

This place has taken a turn for the worst, it used to be a very nice steakhouse with great prime rib but poor management has turned it into a golden corral caliber dining experience. I was refused service for a alcoholic drink because I have a vertical ID ( I'm 23 ), despite the fact that it is still a valid state issued ID the manager refused to serve me because he claimed that it was against TABC policy, which it is not. After he left and we waited 20 min for our entrees I left Cattle Baron for the last time, fully dissatisfied. I would recommend trying the new Saltgrass Steakhouse. 6026 Marsha Sharp Fwy, Lubbock, TX 79407

Service was bad and food only so-so. My wife, sons girlfriend, and I went there with the idea of having a good meal. We were very disappointed. The manager is worthless. Never going back.

We love Cattle Baron but last night was very disappointing. My wife and I took my in laws out for dinner and we sat down and all ordered drinks. The server asked for my ID and then my wife's (we are in our 40's) and then she turned to my 65 year old Father in law and asked for his ID we initially laughed it off but she was serious and so after her persistence we asked to see a manager and he came to the table and said it was a TABC law that everyone must show their ID. Well, I pulled up TABC website and showed him it was NOT a law and that he did not have to show his ID but the manager said no ID no alcohol so we didn't drink, we ate our dinner but we will not be back. My Father in Law had his ID but by this time it was a matter of principle. Sometimes you just have to use common sense people.

Food:

Awesome food and service, the hostess was very nice and polite. We sat pretty much instantly. Our waitress was also great. Filled our drinks often and was also very nice, no problems at all. The price wasn't too bad either for what you get. Anyways great place, would recommend.

A HUGE shout out and thank you to this restaurant. We made reservations for 10 for reception lunch after Texas Tech graduation. We came all the way from the Austin area. Choosing the Cattle Baron was the BEST decision EVER. Manager, I think his name was David, was AWESOME and walked us into the dining room and we were early. Our server was training a new person and BOTH of them were fabulous. The salad bar is phenomenal, the food and drinks were over the top and the atmosphere was very family oriented and warm.
I cannot imagine ANYONE having a negative experience at this restaurant. This manager deserves a raise or promotion and the servers should get a raise!
THANK YOU CATTLE BARON for making our experience OVER THE TOP!!
