If you want a hearty breakfast, this is the spot! It has the feel of an old school country diner with the menu to match!The waiter was really nice, attentive, and didn't miss a beat. He continuously came by to make sure our coffee mugs were full and that we didn't need anything else. Disclaimer: Come hungry because the portions are insane!

This place is a hidden gem. Do not be fooled by the exterior (which is simply modest).The interior has a warm, homey feeling. Whether solo, for family, or even for work - this place is my new stop off for breakfast and lunch when North of the airport.

If you're looking for a cute cafe with a cute Texas waffle that's not too sweet this is the place! I added powdered sugar and bananas on mine. Subtle sweetness from the banana was perfect with the fluffy waffles that was freshly made. Great service and the ambiance was cute!

So many things went wrong during our visit to Lone Star cafe. I'm between a zero and 1 star rating based on service, kitchen prep, comfort, enjoyment and food taste. First, I called Lone Star on a Saturday morning and asked how long of wait would a party of 6 be for breakfast, I was told "no wait, we can seat you right away" I replied "great, my party of 6 will be there in 5 minutes." About 6 minutes later we arrived with other groups already waiting and were told the wait time was 15 minutes. I asked one of the patrons waiting how long he'd been there ( wondering if three groups just happened to walk in the last 5 minutes and the guest told me 10 minutes meaning- I was not given accurate information on the phone.We waited the 15 minutes and were seated, and it was all downhill from there.It took a while for anyone to come to our table, by the time the server arrived for our drink order we were ready for our food order as well. The drinks did come out quickly but the coffee was cold- not even room temp- COLD so we to ask for hot coffee and creamer. The hot coffee did return with an apology but we still had to ask for creamer again and there was not a coffee refill offered. Food arrives and pancakes are delivered without butter or syrup so we had to wait again for those to be dropped off. The waffle we ordered (ordered plain with zero toppings to include no powdered sugar), was delivered with sugar and whipped cream so we had to send that back and wait for the plain waffle we ordered. Waffles are in the cute shape of Texas but around Austin was raw batter- gross. The skillets were cooked fine but lacked flavor and portion size is small. I had the patty melt with fries and as you can see in the picture the frozen to table fries are literally a handful, they might as well line them in a single row next time. Additionally, there were mushrooms in this burger where the menu did not list mushrooms. People have anaphylactic allergies so adding things like mushrooms are potentially very dangerous for folks, I don't understand how this restaurant not only doesn't complete an order as requested, given my waffle example, but then adds ingredients not listed in the menu.The last item I'll mention is the bathroom, there was always a line for ladies room to include the employees that need the same facility. Recommend making these two single seat bathrooms into gender neutral to alleviate the lines and help the employees from long waits so they can get back to their tables. Also recommend honesty for patrons that call in advance, misleading people isn't a good business practice. For the servers, consider using patron waiting times to drop butter/ syrup and look for steam or the feel of a warm cup before delivering hot beverages and leave some of packaged creamer on the table if you don't have the time or organization to accommodate customer needs. Also, the old toothpick trick works just fine on checking if waffles are cooked before serving to paying customers and the kitchen needs to play close attention to what the menu ingredients are, and what the customer order is.We paid about $90 before tip for a frustrating and unfulfilling meal, I would not recommend for food, service, atmosphere or anything in-between.

We came here for the first time on 7/28/23 after many, many times of saying "we should try that place." There were a lot of menu options from the pics here that sounded really good. I had the tuna melt with a side salad, and my lady had the grilled ham and cheese sandwich with fries. My salad came out first and wasn't too bad. The balsamic vinaigrette was delicious. The grilled ham and cheese with fries came out next. The fries were good and hot. Despite being advertised as coming with "aged cheddar," however, the sandwich clearly came with American cheese. There is a time and a place for Kraft cheese, but not when cheddar is on the menu. Also, the grilled ham and cheese was a tad on the greasy side. My tuna melt, which had been forgotten until it was asked for again, also came with American cheese and not cheddar. The tuna salad flavor was excellent, though, and the sandwich was not as greasy. All in all, the food wasn't bad and the service was super attentive. We may come back again as they seemed to be having an off day between the staff communication and the food prep. It will be a minute, though.

Service started well then fell off very badly. Coffee cups empty. Food was ok. Nothing special and way over priced for what we got. A side of bacon 3 thin strips was $7. Restaurant was clean We won't be back

One of the best breakfast,brunch places I've ever been to. The Cafe is run by Korean couple, and they were the nicest people ever.Ordered the country fried steak, lonestar benedict, apple sausage skillet, and very berry crepe (not pictured).Everything we ordered was delicious. Their eggs over easy were perfection. Slightly runny whites and very runny yolk. Hollandaise sauce was delicious, and the hashbrown was crispy. The sausage in the skillet was super flavorful and sweet. My surprise winner was the crepe. Each bite was filled with sweet whipped cream and juicy bits of fruit. Will absolutely visit this place anytime I'm in the area.

Food was very good. I ordered the chicken fried steak with gravy. It was very well done. Tasty seasoning in the breading and not greasy which I really appreciate. I asked for crispy hashbrowns and they were perfect. I ordered a biscuit with it which was yummy. The waitress brought me more gravy quickly when I requested some. My friend ordered the Boursin toast which she enjoyed, but would have liked a thinner piece of toast instead of TX toast thickness. She ordered 1 pancake and shared a bite. The pancake was very tasty.
