Lone Star Petone

Always come for the ribs! I try a medium rare ribeye steak, but it’s overcooked, something between medium-well done, not my luck maybe. Other than that, the ribs is a must try. And beer of course. Not really crowded, but book in advance is always recommended.

Food was good, good potion and it was a birthday dinner we have even been offered a free dessert for the birthday star. Service was as good as to be expected. Our desserts has been delayed due to lack of staffs and we were nearly left without the desserts.

We were having a great experience with a big group until the owner as he called himself cut us off for drinks and talked down to us all plus the table next to us had a similar experience and a few more, we all had the same problem with the same bald headed bloke who left a few people saying they would never come back. spent over $800 on a table and get treated like peasants. I’d add the bar staff were perfect to deal with but almost felt like they were worried of him

I’ve been coming here for years. Generally always the same, although lately I have found the service to have dropped. A while back, the service was better. Someone would tell you the specials and introduce themselves. That doesn’t happen anymore. Meals also seem smaller and the prices have gone up. Still, reasonably priced and the meals are always above average for a main stream restaurant. Basically, a better version of Cobb and Co.

The food is delicious but over the years the quantity and recipes have definitely changed. The quantity definitely has gone down but the quality and taste only getting better. Dinner last night was very good. Service was very friendly and prompt. One of my families favourite restaurants in Wellington.
Ordered Glen Campbell Burger, Dixie Chicken and Stand by your Lamb.
For deserts The Milky Bar Pud & Jack Daniels Chocolate Fudge Pudding giving 5+ stars ⭐️ .
