Lazy Gator - (Near Amarillo, TX)

2 /5 T L: Their music was a bit too Austin for my taste, and they were out of gator—this was our lunch spot, and with gator in the name, we were hoping to get some. The fish and shrimp were “fresh,” but they didn’t have any real Cajun flavor or flair. Ester was super , food was a disappointment.

5 /5 Raymond Magruder: A co-worker who lives in Amarillo suggested I try Lazy Gator while I was in town from Dallas, Texas. I am prone to gravitate to small local eateries....and Lazy Gator is now one place I will return to when I visit the Amarillo area!! It is evident that this is a gathering place for locals. Great atmosphere, amazing food, and excellent service!! When I was seated the server came immediately. She (Christen) was very friendly, extremely attentive, and wore an amazing smile, all of which made my first experience a memorable one! Lazy Gator is definitely on my go back list. If you are looking for great food, excellent service, and a good relaxing environment...Lazy Gator is worth checking out!! (Pictured: Gator Bites | Fish & Chips)

4 /5 Jesse White: We went and tried this place a couple of times the last time the fish was very wet and not good at all. The manager did make it right they apologize and took it off the bill they also offered to fix me something else but I didnt want it by then. All the other dishes were good.

5 /5 Anonymous: This place really blew me away. Came in from out of town and wanted some Cajun. Inside was very clean and a nice eating environment. Sampled the gumbo and it was AMAZING. Nice rich roux with shaved parmesan on top gave the dish a lot of depth. Tried the fire stix and all I can say is Chili’s doesn’t haven’t anything on their cheese pull! Lightly battered so it didn’t take away from the star of the show, the ghost pepper cheese. Ordered the Lazy Susan as recommended by the waiter and every bite was like heaven. So much flavor without letting anything over power. Even though it’s a three hour drive to Amarillo, I will have to find a reason to come back down and eat here as often as possible.

4 /5 Jana McLaughlin: Visiting the town, we found this place randomly after checking out some sights. We were welcomed with an opened door by a gentleman. The place is conveniently designed with a bar and TVs on one side. There are more TVs all around which makes it a great spot for football season, I bet. The server was attentive and cheerful. We got our drinks fast. The gator tail appetizer was reasonable for two. Served with two sauces. The gumbo was flavorful and a cup wasnt enough. Id suggest getting the additional grilled cheese side. I didnt taste the other dish, but apparently the burger needed to be seasoned. It is common nowadays to make burgers more plain, so it wasnt that unusual. Overall we had a good time and left satisfied.
