Dining at this level requires financial preparation. Double Nickel menu prices sit firmly at the top of the Lubbock market, functioning on an à la carte model where proteins, family-style sides, and salads are priced individually.
The following price and menu breakdown reflects average costs for an evening at Double Nickel across courses and tiers:
| Menu Category | Signature Items | Price Range ($) | Portion & Style |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prime Steaks | Center-Cut Filet, Prime Ribeye, KC Strip | $52, $88 | 8 oz, 22 oz, finished with clarified butter |
| Seafood & Chops | Chilean Sea Bass, Cold-Water Lobster Tail, Lamb | $44, $95 | Single entrees or surf-and-turf add-ons |
| Shared Starters | Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, Shrimp Cocktail | $18, $28 | Plated for 2, 3 guests sharing |
| À La Carte Sides | Au Gratin Potatoes, Creamed Spinach, Asparagus | $12, $16 | Family-style portions for 2, 4 people |
| Beverages | House Cocktails, Cellar Red Wines by the Glass | $14, $26 | Full bottles range from $65 to over $500 |
A party of two enjoying cocktails, a shared appetizer, two prime cuts, two shared sides, and a moderate bottle of wine should expect a bill between $260 and $340 before gratuity. While that total sits above everyday dining in Lubbock, it aligns closely with national standards at independent prime houses like Pappas Bros. or Al Biernat's.
