Editorial Review for Luby's Cafeteria – by Citysearch Editors

The Scene
For families, there are thoughtful touches, including specially priced kids plates. And small ones seem to love to ride in the rolling highchairs along the cafeteria line, taking in all the action. There are oversize bibs, and the nice ladies are quick to refill your drinks and provide Styrofoam containers to take leftovers home.

The Food

Both kids and old folks love Luby's. Catering to an older clientele that has become health conscious, Luby's serves fresh fruit and salads, sugar-free Jell-O and puddings, broiled fish, roasted meats, some steamed vegetables and smaller food portions on the bargain-priced Luann platter. (They'll give you the calorie breakdown upon request.)

2 Star Rating: Below Average

Having eaten here severals times over the last couple of years, the quality is spotty in my opinion. Food can be cool or lukewarm and some items seem to have stayed on the serving line too long. The quality of the food should be more in line with the prices that they charge.

Pros: Plenty of parking, quick(most times)

Cons: , Food temp/freshness

I live in New York City now (6 years, and 5 years in New Orleans before that) and oft long for the simple comfort offered by Luby's. It's just a cafeteria with solid food. NYC, dispite the best dining in the USA, has NO cafeterias. It is a shame. Each time I am home, I make sure to dine at Luby's at least once. The restaurants are really a simple treat. A quick reminder of what it was like to dine with my grandmother. The ladies pushing iced tea around in the unchanged poly uniforms is eye candy. The fact that some people are too good for Luby's, just improves the crowd inside. I love Luby's because I have been dinning there for 25+ years and it is (to me) a part of the San Antonio fabric.

Pros: it is San Antonio, warm fuzzy feeling, pronto

Cons: it's not gourmet
