Went there to have a meal and drinks with another couple. Our server was top-notch; she was always on the go, and we never had to ask for anything. Management was also making rounds and asking if we needed anything. The food was very good; we will definitely return.

Good Cajun food. For being in West Texas.
The server was great. It’s not a big restaurant. Has a bar. Lunch time was good to get a table. Open at 11 am.

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.

3rd time coming back still 5 stars for me. I came in for a quick bite for lunch, ample seating, not too busy, quick to serve. Kayla was my server and so sweet. Catfish with fries was delicious. Thank yall so much. Hush puppies were perfection.

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.

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!!

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.

Love this place! The food is authentic Cajun, especially if you order the spicy menu items, beers are cheap, and staff is great.

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.
