About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions

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.

Overall this is a very nice restaurant. Our service was excellent and the food was hot and tasted great. The pricing is good when you consider the atmosphere, view and what other higher end restaurants charge. We will be going back and also trying their lunch buffet.

This was the best experience we have had so far, and we have been coming for 3 years. The filets were done exactly as ordered, tender and flavorful. The cream of tomato soup was nice. The chocolate mousse cake was to die for!

One of the best meals I have eaten at Skyviews. Had a not so good experience previously and was ready to stop coming but this meal tonight has restored my faith! Food well seasoned and right temp. Very good. Service element still lacking polish.
