Murray's Restaurant & Deli in Midland

I thought I would never go back but the owner was nice thanks and have a good Christmas.

Thanks for brown and black avocado!! Oh y all forgot to bag the sheet cake. 0/5 0/10 Used to love this place but it s gone to crap.

Burger meat tasted old food was cold and the a jus had no flavor even the curly fries had no salt

Pizza!!! Ok. After 23 years of being Gluten Free, I feel like I have had all the GF crusts. BUT this pizza is the absolute BEST Ive ever had. Beating out the GF pizza we had in Ireland. It is so freaking good. And I am just sad that I waited so long to try it. We will be back!!!

Placed a to go order arrived at the restaurant before the order was complete told the staff my order name and I had a seat in front my order was placed on the table as if I never said anything to the 6 employees behind the counter while they were on their phones my food sat there absolute disregard for any customer service and attention to detail it s sad I really did like this place but never again will I spend my money with Murray s

Great sandwiches. Excellent service.

Great local Deli, solid Ruben.

Good Pizza

As you get there, you won t be properly welcomed or greeted. You order your food and you take it yourself to your table. A stranger helped my husband carry our order to our table instead of the 7 high schoolers behind the counter. Literally no one smiled at us. Idk if she was the owner but one specific lady looked so bitter and serious when we were being helped. I hope she isn t the owner with that unfriendly attitude. My burger tasted like cafeteria school, good, but not as great at Whithouse Meatmarket. My husband s Philly stake sandwich was also not delicious, the meat was cold. The atmosphere was over all chaotic. We won t be going back.

Murrays is always great!

Food is delicious and comes served fast paced!

Horrible. Doesn t even deserve one star. Ordered the Fit Chick. It was inedible. Overcooked, mushy broccoli; chicken was dried out almost being to the point of jerky. And to add insult it cost a ridiculous amounts of $16.40. Would not recommend Murray s.

You can always tell when the food is fresh. It tastes so much better. It s always fresh here. I recommend the Murray Melt and fresh cut fries. And very clean.

Used to work at HEB bakery and was taking a French bread order from the lovely wife of the deli but it was an order of over 12 French bread and she needed each of them sliced which we have a policy that if it s an order over 4 they would have to put it in for the next day and I was working alone as a closer at the time so we agreed to put the order in for the next day with all of them sliced. A couple hours later I took fresh French bread out of the oven and was about to out them out on the stand for customers to take but another customer was at the counter so I of course serviced them but when I went back to the rack of French bread it was all gone which customers aren t allowed to touch the rack because of safety hazard reasons and the rack was still in the bakery which customers aren t allowed to enter. I turned around and seen a man at the counter and was asking if I can cut all of the French bread in which I found out he was the owner of Murray s deli which I had to refuse because again I m the only one working there and I have to service all customers and on top of that do my job as a closer in which he replied with rude comments saying that I was useless and that it s not like the French bread was gonna sell anyway and how he started complaining that he was gonna have to cut them all by himself now. I told him to have a goodnight and he walked off mumbling more things under his breathe. His wife then called me over the phone and canceled the French bread order for the next day. The encounter with I had with the husband was very rude and I figured he would understand our policies especially if he has a restaurant that I m sure they go by certain policies themselves and for him to start calling me names is very childish and I don t appreciate it one bit especially since I tried to service him to the best of my ability and all I got back was him being extremely rude and unprofessional. In response to the owners response this is sadly not a lie as for the order form the wife had me fill out I was given the name and number of the Deli as well as her signature and seeing that I m being met with the same unprofessional in response this is definitely the correct establishment. Lol

Its good.

Delicious food, cant go wrong on what to order here. Atmosphere sometimes can be loud depending if place is busy or not. Nice staff and good service.

A very excellent lunch spot

Great sour dough bread used on hamburgers . Yum !

Parking: limited to 1st come, 1st pick Food

Spectacular

Pretty decent sandwich. Pastrami & swiss. Potato salad was 7/10. Soda machine was bad. Not good. Needs adjusting. If machine was good, I d give a 5. Easy to fix but very important to have a refreshing drink. Curly fries were perfect. Some crisp, some soft, all perfect together.

Today was my third time eating here. Amazing little spot. Staff are kind/relatable. Atmosphere is relaxed. Service is quick. Had the Ruben on my 1st and 2nd visit. Its excellent both the corned Beef and sauerkraut are top notch. Didnt over do it on the dressing. The mozzarella sticks are great. Today I went from the pastrami&Swiss definitely did not disappoint. Im going to be coming here more often. Good qauilty food and reasonable prices. No complaints.

Always a great spot!

Im from Nebraska where the Reuben sandwich originated from. They dont know how to make a Rueben! No dark rye bread, which is what its supposed to be on and no thousand island dressing either . I got a pastrami sandwich. Very disappointed.

Never even noticed until the wife wanted some soup one day found this place by chance great food and so many different menu items cant wait to go back.

Best chili cheese dog I have ever had.

Pizza is really good, we will be back to try sammiches they all sounded good

The food was unappealing, fries were limp and left on the plate after one bite. My chicken salad tasted like cafeteria food, chicken from a can and mayo. I was expecting so much more.

Food was actually good had a bacon burger

Our Midland favorite.

Great local option! Food is good, service friendly and fast, and great atmosphere (especially with the back porch in the summer)!

It gets extremely busy and crowded around lunch time so I recommend that if youre going to go there and sit down and eat go sometime in the evening but it is family friendly.

I ordered out. Ready on time. Friendly staff. Delicious and reasonable price.

Amazing with a capital A!!!

Eat a lot of lunch here always friendly and food is good

Why did I wait so long to try this place? Mcalisters is usually my go to for a club sandwich but the club sandwich from here was excellent. Huge portion too. The potato salad was very good as well. I liked that I was able to order online & just go in & pick up. It was a little confusing at first knowing where to get my food but I saw orders on a table & just asked the guy behind the counter. I plan on trying a lot of their menu in the near future

Food was great as usual! But when we went to find a table there was 4 tables un-bussed. Had to walk around for a minute. Not a big deal except they werent busy and there was 3-4 people standing around behind the counter. When we left, through the back door, my wife had to stop for a second while 2 employees got their towel fight under control. Just not a good look.

Hadn t been here in a long time. Took my grand daughter for lunch on her birthday! Burgers were cold and curly fries were mediocre! Sure not like it used to be! Won t be going back Food

Walked in and just turned around. I was hoping to try it out, but I was not even greeted just people with masks staring at me... felt un welcomed, so I took my business to a Chinese restaurant that I love. Midland Texas

This place has been a staple of our town for many years. Quality food and friendly staff. A must if youre looking for comfort food (they have healthy options, too!). They also have the best ranch in the county-maybe even all of Texas! Great place for a date night, family night out, or even a family reunion. Decent beer selection, too.

Customer service is trash and food was not cooked. Nothing was done about it so won t be back. Definitely better places in midland to eat. Everytime I go it is the exact same way. Don t waste your time

I liked it

Not sure whats going on at Murrays but I had the worst bacon, cheese burger today. Absolutely no flavor!!!

Theres no question why this place has been an institution for decades and loved by all.

The service was good. The chicken salad sandwich was bland. I have never seen a deli make a club sandwich without toasting the bread. The music was too loud and we couldnt hear each other across the table.

Pastrami sandwich and curly fries are the best! I stop here any time I m in Midland area for lunch.

Its always been one of our top choices. Recently there servings has been very small compare to recent visits. When we request how we want our food cooked or prepared. They dont acknowledge our request. Ex: I ordered the fries to be cooked to a golden brown. They were bearly cooked with heavy grease. The food was great, and went to okay. The atmosphere is wonderful. Hospitality needs work. We like dinning in there. Sadly the quality and value is slow slipping away.

I like me some deli food and theyz gots it!!

Amazing food, great service. One of my favorite restaurants of all time.

Great hot dog and sweet potatoe fries. To many fries

Great food , and very good service

I heard alot of goods things here. Well lets just say I wasnt impressed. The fries definitely need to be crispy and not soggy. My bacon avocado burger, Ive had better at whataburger.

The service and quality of the sandwich were good but I expected a sandwich on a different style bread that didnt look like wonderbread! It seemed like every employee was standing around the register Would be nice to have a meat pizza added to the menu This is my first visit but I will be back to try other menu items.

I ordered a BLT and the Bacon so hard I could not chew. I told one of the employees about it and he mentioned that they burned it. Folks my mouth feels like I was chewing rocks. I did not finish my sandwich.

Salad have few dressing choices (3) all were mayonnaise based. Overloaded with dried fruit. The fresh fruit has something on it that tasted odd. Tomato Soup was very average. Fries were burnt ends. French dip was OK but the au juice with it tasted like I came from a dry mix.

Place is nice food just okay

Ordered the heavenly salad and it was ok. Chicken was dry and serving size wasn t great considering it was a $20 salad. Super overpriced.

Pizza was awful.. like it came in frozen and the toppings were after thoughts .. do not eat the pizza

Had the Rachel (turkey reuben) and curly fries. Sandwich was delicious! Fries are homemade and they are huge! A bit more greasy than I d like though. Came in on a Friday about 11-12 and the place was pretty busy. Food was done pretty quick though! Sat out back on the patio which is dog friendly! Great place, definitely coming back!

Food was very good.

I had lunch with a group of artist friends and we ate at a table in the outdoor dining area. I had the Turkey Avocado Sandwich. The bread choice was white, wheat, or croissant. I chose the croissant. It was served with fresh fried potato chips. It was delicious!

Seems like I have been leaving a lot of bad reviews lately but this place is a real gem. I am glad I found it! I travel every week all over so it is great to find such good food prepared fresh and served by friendly people. I came back online to edit this review to add that I was reading all the other reviews and it s good to see the owner responding to all the reviews good and bad. This shows a real commitment to customer satisfaction!

Customer since May 2023, Pros: This is an excellent place to mingle with friends and family. The price range is fair considering the restaurant is in Midland, TX. Clean and neat place. Cons: The fountain drink sometimes can be useless, serving just sparkling water. My top recommendations so far: 1. Chicken Ceasar Wrap with tomato basil soup 2. Super Burger with curly fries

Fantastic restaurant! Delicious food, charming ambiance, and exceptional staff. Highly recommended!

Tried this hidden gem for lunch while visiting family. Have to say excellent food everyone in our group loved their food. I had the BLT with fried green tomatoes on it, exellent! Highly recommended Murrays and I cant wait to try the pizza which is only available after 4pm.

Home style cooking. A little pricey but DH and I split the super burger and they gave us each our own plate with plenty of curly fries, which were good! Teen daughters split French Dip. They probably could have both had their own. Beer on tap was good! It was a little awkward to order, mostly because we werent regulars. We felt rushed. The burger meat itself was just ok. The toppings were delicious (super burger and green chile burger). French Dip was good.

Decent food, but not great. Burgers were not that flavorful, fries were just okay. A bit expensive for what you get. Also, they ask for a tip before youve even received your food. And theres no real service (you order at a counter and they call you up to get your food). Dont put me in that awkward position.

Best sandwich in the oil patch!

Love this place! Every time we go its delicious!

Food was great as always but the prices have gone way up. Lunch for 2 people was $50+.

Always the bomb, and the best pizza in town!

Perhaps the best pizza in Midland. My favorite anyway. My family loves it here and my daughter picks it for her birthday dinner. Very nice atmosphere. Friendly, helpful service. Lots of options on menu. Only complaint is pizza isn t offered every day!

great sandwiches, atmosphere, and staff. best to know that pizzas are only served according to attached schedule we ll have to come back to try pizza, seems like it s probably great

Used to order the Boston cream pie. They charge the same price for half a piece of pie. No thank you

Unique food that Ive missed since moving from Midland.

Truly some of the best pizza I ve ever had. A Midland staple and one of my favorite places to eat.

Weve tried a few of the items, and most are great! Just dont get the grilled cheese it is not filling and barely toasted or the philly. The curly fries are what keep me coming back! And the French dip is delicious.

Amazing food, great service. Will definitely go there again and again!

The best place for tasty sandwiches. Great atmosphere

I think Im more disappointed each time. Neat place, nice folks, but the heart of the burger falls flat without all the embellishments.

Fresh, delicious, and tons of food

I ordered the Chef s salad and the Heavenly Salad. Both were full of lettuce, meats, veggies, and fruit as indicated on the menu. They were delicious and fresh tasting. My husband said the salad had a good portion of meat and it was enjoyable. Always fresh and tasty!

My family has been going here since the 80s and I dont think weve ever been truly disappointed with it. Theres been times where it just wasnt as good and other times where its been spectacular. Recently its far more on the spectacular side.

Killer Reuben!!! :) App is easy to use and works beautifully

Im just in Midland for a wedding and now Im sad that I discovered this fantastic restaurant in a place Ill probably never return to!

How have I not found this place before? Wanted pizza but its not served on Saturday so we had a spinach salad and a Reubens. Both were loaded with meat and really good! Super nice staff! This is likely to become one of my favorite places.

I tried the Pastrami Ruben Dog. It was very good.

Went in and did a take out order. They have a sign advertising fried green tomatoes. So I gave them a shot. OMG! So good! Great salad also.

I ordered the heavenly salad. It was excellent. I would order it again.

Ive been going here for at least 5 years now. I love the atmosphere here and the food is great every time. Love the fries. Service is good.

Always courteous and professional.

It was busy at lunch But the line moved fast, and the food was worth it!

Great food, great service!!

Used to be great several years ago. With new ownership the food has gone down, prices have gone up, service is worse and they constantly have mistakes now.

Love Murray s! Today I got the jalapeño burger with seasoned waffle fries! Ordered ahead online then just pulled up and they brought it out. Convenient & Delicious!!! Favorite local spot in town!

Very nice

First visit. Fast and friendly service. Plenty of delicious food.

Bring Serge back! Got my food 15 mins after my coworkers got theirs. They were pretty much done eating when i got my food. I ordered my before they did.

Really great people ,food good. Prices good. Enjoyed my meal

Home spun

When we visited at 4:30 on a Friday afternoon, it was quiet and we practically had the place to ourselves. No music playing (a welcome relief). The mozzarella cheesesticks are crunchy and delicious. They serve RO water, for which I am very grateful. The California club sandwich is delicious and generously filled with meat (I cant even finish half), and the platter contains copious amounts of freshly created curly fries (you can choose regular or sweet potato fries). The clam chowder is reminiscent of the deliciousness of that we used to get at Whole Foods. The chicken fried steak sandwich is also top notch--tender meat with crispy breading. To top it off, the chocolate mousse cake is rich and delicious and full of chocolate. We will definitely keep this place in mind next time we pass through Midland.

This place is delicious. There is nothing on the menu that disappoints. My only negative comment is that it is extremely busy during lunch hours and youll have to wait like 45 minutes for your food. So recommend trying to avoid the 12-1 rush.

First time going and I will be going back! I had the Philly and it was perfect! Very friendly staff, dr. Pepper tasted great, and the restaurant was clean! 10 out of 10!

We love this local dining spot. The pizza is also SUPERB. The patio is a great addition. Cant wait to try more dishes. One minor, minor thing would be for the folks not to be so loud with order calling. Thanks and we will be back!

Always hits the spot. A local staple.

Been here three times a week and still love it.

Under new ownership and it is much better in my opinion. The hours are better and they now offer pizza. I like local restaurants which can be a break from chain restaurants. You will be very happy eating here.

Neil and the Murrays team did an excellent job on our small(er) catering order. We ordered sandwiches, salads, and sides for 25-30 people. Neil delivered what we ordered on time, and of course everything was delicious (as usual). Thanks Neil!

I wouldn t know how their food taste. They list delivery available and they don t deliver bummer.

Very good. Had the Ruben. Boyfriend had that Pastrami. Clean restaurant and bathroom. Will be going back on the regular. I want to try their pizza.

I eat here quite often. It s always pretty good. 5 stars.

Excellent food,great service

Great pizza and Caesar salad.

First time there. No one in line. Ordered a hot n spicy and an unsweetened tea. Wish I could comment on the food but I ended up walking out. Took 45 minutes. Staff looked unorganized. Owner/manager clearly frustrated with the staff. Most everyone with the exception of 2 people in the kitchen just standing there. I will say the atmosphere looks cool and the outside patio is a nice date spot. Order was $15. Don t need a refund. Just need better performance. I will visit once more to be fair. The order up device is next to the second register. Thanks

Great place for breakfast, had the pancakes with bacon, and ordered an iced coffee. I watched them poured me a glass of store bought bottled cold brew. Other than that, everything was great!

We love Murray s! Food is always delicious and them curly friesssss mmmm mmmm good!!!!

We had a group here and got several of the pizzas. We called ahead so that they would have them ready when we got their otherwise you may have to wait 1hr+ according to their website. They also dont do pizzas all the time online it will say when you can order them. The pizzas are great we all loved them all and we tried 6! One pizza could feed a person easily. We love this place as a nice little local spot. There is plenty more on the menu thats great but if you havent tried the pizzas you should.

Didnt get any bacon jam on it

Pastrami sandwich

The best Deli in Midland !!!

Cool atmosphere, coffee was legit, and a great place to vibe with my lady friend.

Best damn place in town! Great staff, burgers, fries, and the gladiator pizza makes me dream of heaven. Thank you God for creating Murray s, and thank you to the original Murray, you re a Midland treasure!

Passing by and chose this place because of the menu variety. Ordered the gumbo soup. Not very good. The rice was crunchy and soup was bad quality, tasted old. Got it replaced with the clam chowder. Soup was cold. I ordered the Krab melt and it was a small sandwich. My colleague had a chicken sandwich which was dry and curly fries were plentiful. I really liked the condiment area. Other than that, not impressed at all. Staff was friendly and responsive.

Delicious burger. No frills. Jalapeño bun is my go-to! Their curly fries are amazing. Patties are pretty big. I should ve stuck with a single patty.

Out of towner here and I have to say this is the best place to eat. You get plenty of food worth the money. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Chicken salad with avocado was amazing.

Ordered a hamburger, and that was what I got. A hamburger on a bun. Nothing else! No condiments, no onion or tomato or lettuce. Just a dry hamburger patty. Such a disappointment.

Sanwiches are great! The service is nice and fast. Good clean restaurant.

Good food, nice atmosphere. Very Crowded at noon, so get there early or wait until 1:00. DO NOT get the Sweet Potato Fries! They are awful. It s more like thinly cut sweet potato skins. As good as everything else is, these are BAD. There are several options for sides when you order a sandwich, beware of the sweet potato fries

We love the food here! I enjoy the chicken salad sandwich and my husband likes their pizza. Every time we come here there is a bit of a wait, though. We have been twice and each time waited for our food for 35-45 mins (which can be difficult with very impatient toddlers!) We ve never been disappointed with the taste or quality, though.

Love love love this place. I ve been here several times and the food and customer service is always great!!!

Good fresh food! Friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Today I wanted to try an immensely popular spot for locals. I usually walk away from these favorites underwhelmed. I m happy to say that Murray s lives up to the hype. Their take on a Philly is a little unique and comes together as an incredible sammich. Try them out but listen show up early. This place gets PACKED! Great little restaurant- note I said little but there is actually a ton of space in here.

Murray s is always good. Quick service even when crowded. Great variety of items from soup and salads to burgers and sandwiches. Food is served hot. Good portions. Quality ingredients. A little pricey but what restaurant isn t these days?

Delicious!!

Best ever! The Cali club & potato soup is my favorite combo!

We were introduced to Murray s upon moving to Midland 5 years ago. The food is always good and staff friendly. Love the outdoor seating too!

This is the place to go if you want some good food!

Food is always delicious and fresh and staff is super friendly. My fav place!

Excellent food and people.

Good food, pretty fast service. Clean. Didnt like the line wrap around. We had never eaten there so we sat in the booths by front door. Huge wait line at lunch. People had to hang around our table to order. My suggestion dont do that go to the back rooms.

Best chicken salad in Midland

My food was wonderful. Better experience than last time. The staff very friendly, but I did have to go to counter twice for a couple of items they failed to provide. My large drink cup and a spoon for my soup. These items arent available in self serve area.

This place is freaking amazing is so daamm good I have a hot sub with jalapeño buns this was out of this world so good the guy that was at the registered recommend to me and was the best thing of my day so daamm good definitely a go back and you guys need to try it because they are good!!

Always great !

Great food, friendly staff, decent prices.

Murray s is the best. Their food is so good snd we always enjoy it. The staff is friendly and helpful. We have enjoyed Murray s for years and will continue to do so for many more, I hope.

Murray s is one of our favorite places to dine. The food is always good and the staff is always friendly!

Enjoyed our sandwiches this afternoon SO much! Will go back for sure. We did not get a drink because they were overpriced! 4.09 for 1 drink.

Good food, great atmosphere, and awesome employees!

Good food. Not too pricey for what it is.-self service, get your own drinks, etc. I would like to go back and try their pizza (they only serve it certain days).

Great customer service

Amazing sandwichs

Murray s is our local favorite restaurant! Family friendly atmosphere and the food is delicious! We love everything on the menu & especially the pizza! The chocolate mousse cake is the best in town!!!

High quality food no matter what you order!!

Finally tried the pizzas at Murray s. Absolutely the best pizzas in Midland. We had the Hawaiian and Dufford. Can t wait to try all of the other pizza options. Amazing new addition to Murray s.

The Patio at Murray s is the best!! Exactly what Midland needed!! Shared a delicious pizza and salad! Thanks Murray s!!

Good place to eat.

Always a go-to favorite but why take off the best thing on the menu?? Please bring back the Turkey Mornay.

One of my favorite local places! Their fire cooked pizzas are amazing and their new back patio is perfect for nights out with the family.

Ive been coming to Murrays since the 80s and I always enjoyed the food and now I see its under new ownership and Im all about supporting our local businesses. The food is good We enjoyed the Superburger and the Chicago Dip . However the service is TERRIBLE!! It wasnt very busy on Thursday when we came but when our order finally came out the girls at the front desk never called our name and the food just sat and got cold. They were too busy talking about what color to dye their hair. I hope the new owners train the employees to keep personal conversations until later. The food can be good but this things can. Ruin your experience. We would like to be back. Thank you for your time.

The Bollywood and Fun Guy pizzas are out of this world :) highly recommend!

Burgers are great, hard to try something new when the Bacon Jalapeno burger is life. Not to mention the service is extremely fast.

Always love Murrays. Great food and friendly staff

always good

My favorite thing has become the fried zucchini with marinara. Worth every penny and I could make a meal of it alone

Locally owned, friendly staff, fast service and great food!
