Service was awesome. The girls that served us wore great. As for the food⦠very disappointing. Waited over a hour for our food that just felt like it was microwaved. Was very disappointing, my wife ordered the pork belly. On menu was stated to come with crispy skin but was very soggy and rubbery. Again the girls that served us awesome . This was 14/10/2025 at 6pm.

We were visiting Tauranga and hasn't planned dinner.
We drove passed and safe it was busy on a Sunday night and decided to drive in.
The staff were very friendly and the food was amazing.
A new staff member was our hostess and she was awesome!
I'm sorry over forgotten your name but thank you for your banter and great service :)

Meals were large, I had my dessert to go. Banoffee Pie. Had an espresso martini, great. Service was wonderful - thank you Indigo. An excellent evening.

A cheeky lunch date with my gorgeous daughter.
Where to go with a culinary challenged dining partner, whose dietary scope is generally fried chicken, nachos or butter chicken. When I already know, 2 days in advance, that I want a Bloody Mary with my lunch. Lone Star youβre up.
The beautiful girl has an early lunch break so we were first in. We were welcomed by a super friendly server who asked where we would like to sit and got straight on to drinks. I knew already that I liked her. She was mortified to have to come back and inform me there was no Worcestershire sauce for my drink. I settled on bubbles instead. 5 minutes later she popped back to let me know the chef had gone out and got the Worcestershire sauce if Iβd rather have the Bloody Mary. At this point it ceased to matter whether the food was any good, I was in love.
But the food was good. The Beautiful One had the Ellie Rose wrap, chicken, bacon salad deliciousness and fries for $24. She wasnβt expecting it toasted, and it was βwellβ toasted, but she said it was absolutely lovely. I had the Ranch Salad with chicken which also had feta and roast pumpkin. It was amazingly flavourful and fresh. The server was friendly, engaging and actually seemed happy to be there. Top marks and good value.

Just had a birthday dinner and what AMAZING service!! Right from walking through the door to the end of our dinner, the service was top tier. Even when it started filling up service was consistent. Massive shout out to Lesa for her AMAZING service!! Cocktails were delicious, kai was nice and once again service was on point. Will definitely be going back.

We went to lone star last night for our daughters 13th birthday & whilst the food was good (as always) the service was somewhat lacking. We were never offered water, in fact never offered another drink. Then when the birthday cake came out for the birthday girl, there was no offer of dessert for anyone else so we all watched her devour her cake. So the service was somewhat lacking

Great tasty food, value for money and super amazing service. Can't rave enough about the great service we had from all the waiting staff. So accommodating and friendly. They all went out of their way to make our little birthday celebration very special. We will be back again and tell all our friends Thank you Lesa for your birthday rap. You are so awesome!!!!
