20th January 2012 I'm reasonably familiar with the Lone Star brand and reputation for big-sized high quality meals, so it's the first place I thought of to take my wife on her birthday. We were greeted with a big smile and immediately looked after. After being seated at our table the waitress was super friendly and made us feel at home as we placed our order. My wife ordered the salmon and I ordered a dozen of the famous Lone Star ribs (with fries instead of chuncky wedges). The food was absolutely devine! We couldn't get enough of the freshy-made coleslaw, and the straight-cut fries were the best I've ever had! And the ribs were succulent and outstandingly good! (I don't believe you can get ribs as good as this anywhere else!) My wife loved the salmon, which was cooked to perfection!
When we finished our meals, my wife went to the bathroom to freshen up, and the waitress came over and suggested that I give her a nod as soon as my wife returned back to the table - which I did - and literally seconds later the waitress came to our table with a pavlova birthday cake for one with a candle on it! (anyone that dines there on their birthday gets a pavlova birthday cake!).
It was a great night at Lone Star! I can't say enough about the quality of food, matched with the friendly service from the staff. The atmosphere and surroundings are top notch, with modern styling and beautiful lighting around the premises. I just wish other restaurant brands took the high-standard example set by Lone Star for quality of food, atmosphere, friendly service, and unique little touches like the pavlova birthday cake idea. At the moment, in my opinion no one comes close to Lone Star on any of these attributes. Would highly recommend Lone Star Cafe!
* I highly recommend the calamari too! It's out of the world devine!
31st August 2015 I took my step-daughter and her friend to Lone Star Northlands after a movie, as part of her 13th birthday celebration. After a lovely meal (as you come to expect from the Lone Star) the staff returned with a special birthday desert for my step-daughter. It turns out that during the seating process they had chatted with my step-daughter who had said that it was her birthday. What a lovely gesture Lone Star!
