Double Nickel Steakhouse 5405 Slide Road, Lubbock, TX 79414

"Very disappointed with my experience. I come to Lubbock every month and have tried lots of different spots. I kept waiting to go to double nickel and finally gave it a go tonight. First off I ordered my food and my salad came out 2 seconds before my steak arrived. No big slower night, I like to taste throughout my meal anyway. The steak it self was fine...nothing special but also not terrible, creamed corn tasted like it was frozen corn that hadn't been recooked. Again not terrible but not a 55$ entree either. (Also the menu had a different price for the ribeye but nonetheless) My bartender/server (I sat at the bar) not once checked in on me until the food was gone. For my money I will choose to return to west table or la sirena"

"This place is old school fancy. No hats on in the building. Drunks are fantastic,food is out of this world, and the services matches. The desserts are all HUGE and very good, and they will even light the bananas foster on fire at your table if you want them too. If you ask for a to go wrap instead of a box, they wrap your leftovers in foil and make a swam out if it. I've never been anything but 100% pleased with my experience at the Double Nickel."

"We took our son here for his 15th birthday. If requested they will acknowledge your birthday. Our waiter forgot so we don’t know they do. Make sure to remind them. I ordered the Double Nickel salad. It was tart, but if you like sweet tasting salad it was good. We order crab stuffed mushrooms and they were phenomenal. Lots of yummy sauce to enjoy. We ordered the Bananas Foster. They lit it at the table. It was fun to watch and delicious. The establishment definitely makes you feel like you need to dress up and act “proper”. However, I did see people in shorts and casual wear. The hey only enforce the “no hat” policy. Wear your Sunday best! The prices were through the roof so it’s definitely a special occasion experience for the working class."

"We made reservations for my son’s birthday for 5:30 on 9/23. We were warmly welcomed and immediately seated. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and very helpful. We ordered the bacon shrimp and crab stuffed mushrooms. Both appetizers were delicious. For my entree, I got the ribeye “double nickel” style topped with lump crab and shrimp with spinach rockefeller and sautéed mushrooms. My steak was cooked perfectly and the sides were delectable. But the best part of our evening was the bananas foster! Not only was it the flambé fun to watch, but the dessert was one of the best desserts we’ve ever had. It was a night to remember, and a great way to celebrate a birthday. We had a good time!"

"The appetizers were excellent. The wedge salad came with toasted bread and tomato slices... The toasted bread was crunchy and firm, yet easy to break. And the Bleu cheese dressing was one of the best I've tried. Not to mention the absolutely crispy bacon on top of it. The steaks were thick cuts of beef expertly prepared. And the service was just impeccable. The real challenge here is finding something to complain about."
