Lone Star Cafe - (Near San Antonio, TX)

3 /5 Bonus Mom: The location is fantastic. We were seated upstairs (in the bar) and had a perfect view of the river walk. We were seated quickly but had a bit of a wait for the server (3:00). It was not yet too busy so it was quiet but got loud within half an hour My ‘saddle’ margarita was decent although the salted rim I asked for came without salt. My server then brought some salt in a glass for me. I had the Alamo strip and hubby had the ranchers ribeye with mashed potatoes and veggies. The mashed and the veggies were good. Hubbies steak was good and most of mine was also. Both were cooked at medium rare but mine had a lot of fat and gristle. We might come back.

4 /5 Miguel Castro: I wasn’t expecting much and this restaurant surprised me in a very nice way. The server was really nice (and extra patient with kids) at all times. I was supposed to have a salad and ended up ordering the baby back ribs and let me tell you, they were excellent! Ordered fries and mashed potatoes on the side and the latter was delicious. It is a little bit overpriced, yes, but worth every penny. Take a balcony facing the river walk and thank me later.

1 /5 Kristin Branyon: I want to start by saying our waiter was AMAZING. He was on top of everything, he was quick, kind and very knowledgeable. That being said, the food that we received was abysmal. I had the smothered pork chops and they were the smallest, most dry, unmothered pork chops I ever did see. My cousin got the battered shrimp and they tasted and looked like Costco shrimp and were overcooked and dry. My dad had the grilled chicken and it looked like they cut a chicken breast in half and pounded it thin. It was one step away from being jerky. My daughters chicken tender meal had more chicken than the adult chicken breast plate. We were SO disappointed, for this price point I at least expect fresh ingredients. I would give it negative stars if I could. Stay far away from this place.

5 /5 rjrj101: Chill place with a great view. Steak was buttery good. The Brussel sprouts were fantastic! Staff was fun and light hearted. A great experience! A++ Thank you!

3 /5 Derek Picklesimer: The portions are ridiculously small. I ordered a pulled pork sandwich because how hard is it to mess up a pulled pork sandwich. Pretty basic, right? Except they skimp on the meat so bad that your bread to meat ratio is like 3 to 1. Youre basically eating a bun for a sandwich the meat is so non-existant. My familys meals all came out similarly and although the service was fine and the river walks ambience and view was superb if the food is way below par what does it matter? We came to the conclusion as a family that this was by far the worst restaurant we patronized on our trip to San Antonio and would not recommend it.
