Old Reliable

Posted by fw5299 on 9/17/2009

We moved from Lubbock 9 years ago, but every time we go back to visit we have to eat at Orlandos. We love the food & atmosphere. We were a little disappointed this last visit that the prices had gone up so much, but the food is worth it!!

Great Italian food and great service at reasonable prices.

We've enjoyed eating at both Orlando's Restaurants over the years, and there is a reason they?ve been a family favorite since 1965; it?s their high quality of food and service. Their wide variety of Italian cuisine is excellent and their prices are reasonable. Their restrooms are always clean and well maintained. The waiters are professional and well trained. I really have no complaints and would recommend Orlando's to anyone who is seeking good Italian food. Sometimes it gets a little noisy when operating at full capacity, so If you want a slightly quieter restaurant, try the Orlando?s located at 24th St. and Avenue Q. This original location is also the one I?d recommend for a quiet romantic evening. Both locations serve excellent food. Parking at the Indiana location is never a problem but the Ave Q is more crowded, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings. Waiting times are rarely a problem except on those two nights and then it is still well worth the thirty minute delay.

World's Greatest Pizza

This restaurant has the best pizza I have ever had. I just moved to Lubbock over a month ago and I can honestly say that I eat at Orlando's at least twice a week. They offer a great menu. The staff is very friendly. I will definitely continue to go back.

Response from Orlando's Italian Restaurants

Thanks for the kind words! We try really hard to run a good business that is fun for people to go to over and over. I first ate at Orlando's in 1972 as a Texas Tech student. Later I bought in with the original owner in 1978. I still am passionate about the restaurant business. We have a lot of fine young people working for us. Come back soon!

Ok, but not great

Orlando's was ok. My wife and I ordered their sampler and didn't think it was that great except for the lasagna.

Like family restaurants back East

Not bad; food a little above average but great service and atmosphere.
