Was Darija Leskur at Café J a mag?
We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. I definitely recommend it for anyone in the area near the campus. The ambiance was calm and serene, which made for a great dining atmosphere. Our server, Lauren, was very friendly and the food was amazing! View all feedback.

What Marshall Glover dislikes about Café J:
The manager and a host were present when I entered and they did not greet me. I actually think they were staring at me. After a few uncomfortable moments, I explained that I had made a reservation for 10 through opentable. They had no idea what I was talking about. After checking the reservations they found my party and we found space. I waited at the door and when I sat down on the sofas, there were two large heaps... View all feedback.

I have been to Cafe J a number of times for lunch, but today was the first time I was able to catch brunch.

Manager likes to visit tables with a cavalier amount of chewing tobacco in his mouth. Doesn't apologize for food taking an hour, missing several times and coming out cold. Never again.

Very few quiet restaurants remain in Lubbock where you can actually converse at the table without glaring televisions and everyone around you texting. This is what eating out is supposed to be great food, reasonable prices, ambiance, well trainedstaff, and in a neighborhood atmosphere. Nothing else in Lubbock like it. Thank you.
