Dirk's Signature Chicken & Bar

We had lunch with a customer here around noon on 12/20. We were warmly welcomed and immediately seated. The place is very creatively decorated with lots of cartoon art. The staff were kind and helpful. We all ordered the combination platter and chose different sides. I had the mashed potatoes with jalapeño bacon gravy and collard greens. The potatoes were smooth and buttery, and the gravy was outstanding. The collard greens were perfectly cooked and wonderfully seasoned. The chicken tenders and steak strips were both battered expertly with great flavor and cooked to perfection. Both were juicy and fork tender, and a knife was not necessary. I had the Korean and Nashville sauces to complement my meal. Both were delicious, but not necessary since the meat was so delightful without a sauce! Overall, we enjoyed a delicious meal and had a good time. Fair warning though: it was busy and quite loud during our lunch, so if you are hearing impaired and looking for a place to have a nice conversation over your meal, you might find yourself shouting at each other if you choose to eat here.

This place served up to their name. Our bar tender host was very friendly and came with recommendations for the are brew beers that were on tap. Will say the beers were delicious! But most of all this place lived up to their name by serving a portion size meal! We suggest if you like spicy and little heat, try the Korean chicken with rice and jambalaya; or, lemon roasted chicken with the mashed potatoes and collard greens. Stop by and enjoy!

The second Lubbock-only restaurant of the fabulous West Table. Here for a business lunch. Come early because this place fills up quickly and stays busy. But there's a reason: the southern influenced menu is wonderful, and the casual atmosphere of perfect. Shrimp and grits were wonderful. Cheddar grits had an amazing flavor. Side of andouille gumbo was so good it should just be it's own full-sized dish. Been here several times now, and always had an excellent experience. The art is amazing as well!

The wife and I really enjoyed the food from Dirks. I had the Nashville hot chicken. It was hot-juicy and delicious. The fries had great seasoning. The wife had the rotisserie chicken. It was also seasoned well and very juicy. The prices were not bad considering the portions. We will definitely return for this delicious chicken spot!

Great chicken fingers, shockingly spicy Nashville sauce, super crispy no matter what you get. I enjoy the Dirk original artwork that decorates this place, including many renditions of raider Red who was designed by Dirk. Downsides: the martini I got was good and generous, but more of a Vespa than a martini. The portions are insanely large. That doesn't seem like a negative, but plan to split what you get on many plates. Inside is loud, so don't expect romantic quiet or anything. This is more of a rowdy sports bar vibe By the time we left at 7:00 there was a long line out the door. Honestly the chicken here is unbelievable.

Portions are good but not huge. The food has their own signature taste and is well worth the extra few dollars over fast food. Not a burger place, but imagine Blue Sky with wait staff. Expect about $15 - $17 per person. A few meals are easily split for lighter appetites. Chicken strips are great and so are the steak fingers if they are tender. Best gravy in town. I'm trying the grits and shrimp next time. Only open Wednesday-Sunday.
