Note 1:  The accompanying unaudited financial statements are presented in
         accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and, consequently, do
         not include all of the disclosures normally required by generally 
         accepted accounting principles.  All adjustments which are, in the 
         opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results 
         for the interim periods have been made. All such adjustments are of a 
         normal recurring nature.  The results for the interim period are not 
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full 
         year.

         These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 
         consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Luby's 
         annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 1997. The 
         accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial 
         statements are the same as those described in Luby's annual report on 
         Form 10-K.

fiscal 1998 are being funded from cash flows from operations, cash 
equivalents, and long-term debt.  Capital expenditures for the three months 
ended November 30, 1997, were $7,827,000.  As of November 30, 1997, the 
Company owned four undeveloped land sites and two Water Street joint venture 
restaurants were under construction.

During fiscal year 1997 the Company purchased 897,500 shares of its common 
stock at a cost of $19,918,000, which are being held as treasury stock.  To 
complete the treasury stock purchases and fund capital expenditures, the 
Company required external financing and borrowed funds under a $125,000,000 
line-of-credit agreement.  As of November 30, 1997, the amount outstanding 
under this line of credit was $81,000,000.  The Company believes that 
additional financing from external sources can be obtained on terms acceptable 
to the Company in the event such financing is required.

Results of Operations
_____________________

Quarter ended November 30, 1997 compared to the quarter ended November 30, 1996.
_________________________________________________________________________

Sales increased $2,385,000, or 2.0%, due to the addition of five new 
cafeterias in fiscal 1998 and 27 in fiscal 1997.  The sales increase from new 
cafeterias was partially offset by a decrease in sales volume at cafeterias 
opened over one year and the closing of four units, two in August 1997 and two 
in September 1997.

Cost of food increased $1,468,000, or 4.8%, due primarily to the increase in 
sales.  As a percentage of sales, food costs were higher versus the prior year 
due to product promotions featured during the period.  Payroll and related 
costs increased $3,299,000, or 9.2%, due primarily to the increase in sales 
and the higher federal minimum wage which increased first on October 1, 1996, 
and again on September 1, 1997.  Occupancy and other operating expenses 
increased $1,102,000, or 3.0%, due primarily to the increase in sales and 
higher group insurance costs.  With the decline in same-store sales, certain 
fixed expenses in this category have increased as a percentage of sales, 
including depreciation, property taxes, utilities, and repairs.  These 
increases were partially offset by lower preopening expenses due to fewer new 
store openings as compared to the prior year.  General and administrative 
expenses decreased $289,000, or 5.2%, due primarily to a lower profit sharing 
contribution estimated for fiscal 1998 as compared to the estimate of the 
contribution for the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense increased $613,000 over the first quarter of fiscal 1997 due 
to higher average borrowings under the line-of-credit agreement and lower 
capitalized interest on qualifying properties as a result of less construction 
in the current period.
The provision for income taxes decreased $1,469,000, or 30.0%, due primarily 
to lower income from operations and state tax savings as a result of 
restructuring into a holding company.  The effective income tax rate decreased 
from 37.5% to 35.6%.
