★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1This was our first time, the food was delicious even next day because these portions were big. Drinks were sneaky strong while tasting great and the service rocked. We will be back for sure, only thing we didnt love was the queso, added the salsa to it for a little more flavor and the Skillet they bring it in is no deeper than a plate -it was hard to scoop like that! But still tasty!
October 22 · Caitlin GuentherThe service was really great and the management did their job really well. But the grill messed up my order twice so they had to fix it and I ended up having to take my food with me because we were heading to a movie so I didn't get to eat it there. I had to eat it on the way to concert that we were going to but the manager made it right and our server did a really great job so I don't hold it against the server or the management team. It was just that the grill couldn't seem to get our order correct? But the rest of the people in our group got their orders correct? And their food was great. It was just mine since I had a special order that they couldn't seem to get correct because I was allergic to onions.
October 18 · Lisa PriceRestaurant was clean outside and inside. The hostess was a Lil flat in tone and body language So initially I had a brief moment of doubt.Our server ALEC was perfect and immediately guided us about the beverages and food items to try. I ordered the spicy habanero Burger (now in my top five) with a side of fireflies and a white lager. My counterpart ordered the classic burger.There was a brief misunderstanding because my counterpart did not like cheese but Alec was on the job and took care of us in short time. The fire-fries were so good they are literally my second favorite fries ever. Backpack plenty of heat in that dust was great. We were so happy to find this place and we will return and also want to give a shout out to the manager who came by and asked us about our visit.
October 09 · Eugene Prout6/14/25: Short version - plenty of parking, a sister restaurant to Texas Roadhouse, TVs galore, smiling staff abounds, and good food. Definitely worth a revisit.Long version - Stopped in this particular Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. There were quite a few people already waiting & we were told the wait would be about 15 minutes. Thought it was odd considering I saw quite a few open tables on the one side, but then maybe they were reserved. Regardless, our wait was really only about 5 minutes.The restaurant is divided into the bar eating area & the family eating area. TVs were plastered all over the walls, the family side had some funny & cute metal sculptures all over the place, with a large wall decoration made out of what looked like all beer cans, in the shape of a 33.Our server, Shomari, was fantastic. He knew the menu well, he told us about upcharges (traditional bone-in wings were an extra $2), he was very polite & friendly. It was not a loud lunch crowd on the bar side so we could hear Shomari speak clearly when he repeated our meal order to ensure it was accurate. He was extremely attentive despite the lunch crowd, never letting my sister's lemonade go empty. When I told him I didn't need more sweet tea at the moment, he brought me over some water instead -- that shows a server who knows his stuff, well thought out action.The appetizer platter was pretty hefty w/ food. The teriyaki glaze on the wings was delicious; the pickles, despite being thin, were crisply fried, as were the crooked cheese sticks. They were not dripping with grease, either. My only critique with them would be to portion out the pickles & cheese better - less pickles, with a couple more cheese sticks.My sister's 12 oz ribeye looked to be a bit thin, but it was extremely juicy; she said the broccoli had some seasoning on it that was very good which she enjoyed; and the garlic mashed potatoes, with gravy & bacon bits, I tasted & were delicious. My wild shroomin' burger was also tasty & well seasoned. After Shomari told me the tater tots were seasoned well, I can confirm he knows his stuff -- they were very well seasoned (no ketchup needed!), and the pickle spear was crispy.As I was trying to gracefully leave the booth w/ our bag of leftovers w/o twisting an ankle (you had to step down from it), another server was standing close by & asked if I needed help. She laughed when I told her no, I just didn't want to fall on my face. She was also very friendly & chatted us up for a few seconds, telling us to have a great day.Good food, friendly staff, reasonably priced. What more could you ask for? We both agreed Bubba's 33 is worth a revisit.
June 15 · sigray2734Candra, our exceptional bartender, was very knowledgeable and professional, polite, and contagiously enthusiastic.I thought I would just have a beer, but she encouraged me to try their fresh cocktails and made from scratch entrees. I had a juicy burger and fries, and my partner had the fish n' chips. Unless you made your own burger with love, you haven't had one like this. No joke.I looked around and noticed they sell a lot of pizzas, and they look amazing. The crust looked good, and the crust is always a deal breaker for me. I'm gonna try their lasagna next time; the gentleman next to me at the bar was really digging in.I will be coming back soon. Having worked in the industry for 6+ years, this was by far the best experience I've had in a long time. Eric, the Manager on Duty, was very considerate and checked-in with us often. He was obviously very proud of his staff, and I could see why: they were all welcoming and gracious, and they seemed happy to be there.I am looking forward to the complimentary appetizers for our next visit.- Xavier
