The West’s latest endeavor in the Lubbock food scene gets a solid “meh” compared to other options for similar fare, and they’re other restaurants in town. While the food and mixed drinks are well made and within the “tastes pretty good” category, they fail to bring anything unique to the Lubbock food scene. Coupled with an incredibly bland and apparently half-hearted attempt at interior decoration, Neighborhood fails to create an urge for return visits.
