Restaurants We Wish Were Still In Lubbock – Landon’s & Kool 98 Listener’s Top 5

We at Kool have been compiling lists over the past couple of weeks dealing with everything related to Lubbock. From Mexican food to BBQ and so much more, we bring you the "Best of" things from Lubbock. This week's list has already given us our biggest feedback ever. We asked our listeners to send it restaurants from Lubbock we still wish existed and I took the liberty to pick the top 5. It would be nice to have every place on the list back, but here is your top 5, hand picked from your submissions. See if your submission from Facebook made it to the list!
