About the restaurant
While you may not realize it, you have chosen to dine in a Texas Tech University classroom! Skyviews Restaurant is a full-service, largely self-supporting restaurant designed and operated to provide a hospitality laboratory experience for up to 50 students each week. While you are enjoying an excellent meal in the lovely surroundings, students are developing skills and applying knowledge. Every day is a learning experience for our students, and we welcome comments and suggestions as we strive to improve your dining experience. We greatly appreciate your patronage.

Please note that reservations are limited due to the nature of our restaurant. Dinner reservations fill up quickly and will close 24 hours prior to dinner. If OpenTable does not allow a reservation or blocks out a timeslot, that signifies we are full for that time and/or day.

Spare ribs were quite fatty, but the rest of the meal was delicious. Service was good. Nice setting allowing for conversation.

Macaroni Joe's, in Amarillo, serves up simple yet unique Italian-inspired dishes. Featuring an eclectic menu as well as diverse selection of wines, Macaroni Joe's is a great place to dine in an atmosphere with a real Tuscan feel.



Specialty pastas on the menu at Macaroni Joe's include green chili chicken farfalle, handmade lasagna, blackened bayou pasta and much more. You'll also find a number of chef's specialties such as our wagyu ribeye, slow roasted pork shank, and Chilean seabass. And don't forget to ask your server about the perfect wine to go with your meal, from a wine cellar offering more than 400 choices.

Had a reservation at Macaroni Joe's last evening, with a friend to celebrate her 60th birthday. The appetizer (Mob Queso), the adult beverages (strawberry Mezcal margaritas), and the dinner selections were wonderful and so delicious! The service from our waiter, Guy, was outstanding throughout the evening. He was efficient and attentive and even helped us in celebrating my friend's birthday in a very reserved manner (which was appreciated!). The ambiance was superb as well. I highly recommend Macaroni Joe's and can't wait to go back.

About the restaurant
Not just Lubbock’s Orginal brew pub, but also a steakhouse where a comfortable, laidback atmosphere and a friendly service staff await you. With a wide variety of menu items from steaks, seafood and brick oven pizza, no wonder people claim we have “Darn Good Food.” Located across from the Buddy Holly Museum, on Buddy Holly Ave. in the Depot District.

Come in for a Well Crafted Beer, stay for the food.

Tapas / Small Plates
Amarillo
About the restaurant
Contrary to what most think, the word tapas actually means "to cover". Rooted as a tradition in Spanish culture, socializing patrons of restaurants would cover their wine glasses with small plates to protect their beverages from insects and small pests while outdoors. At Savor, we pay homage to this ritual in our own unique way. The urban and chic atmosphere invites locals to step outside Amarillo for an evening and into another place entirely. With an urban, speakeasy vibe, Savor welcomes its patrons to sit comfortably at the bar or in a cozy booth next to the floor to ceiling windows.
