Not the worst place to stop on your way between Houston and Austin, but we certainly won't be going back. The food lacked flavor and the service was mid at best. This style of restaurant went to seed in the early 2000s with dated decor and mediocre menu. But a lack of options for the area keeps it going. read more

While staying a few days in the area, with friends, we like to try restaurants that offer a large variety of foods for all of our different tastes. Lonestar Grill offered that. The food was good though even the chicken breasts were overly dry the onion rings were spot on. Our waitress was a hoot and loved her quirkiness. She was so friendly and food came out hot and quick. This was a rainy Sunday at lunch and place was very full but we were seated immediately. You could tell that the staff worked really well together, helping each other as needed. Bravo! If ever in the area again we would come back. read more

I had the chopped sirloin with potatoes and green beans. It was all very good. My husband had the chicken fried steak which was good. However, his fried okra was not crispy and was cold. The squash casserole didn't have much flavor. The service was fine. The restaurant itself was not as clean as I would like. We were here a year ago and it was much cleaner. I would come back again. read more

Just the right portion!!! Great taste!!! Fast service and very polite staff!!! Their dessert options are amazing as well!!! read more

First time here. Rolls are outstanding. With butter and/or cinnamon butter. Green beans and black eye peas had real bacon and onion mixed in. Chicken and dumplings were very tasty. Not as good as my mama's. But still very good. Im stuffed for $16.50. Not expensive at all read more

Everything was great! The flavor, definitely get your bang for your buck. Hubs got the pork chops I got chicken and dumplings, the sides were fantastic the squash casserole green beans were top notch! We will bak next visit for sure! read more

Probably one of the worst meals. So underwhelming. The chicken fried steak is disgusting. The meta is like rubber and hard with no flavor. The onion rings were soggy. Like left overs and the okra was nothing special. I was starving but otherwise would have left. The line for Truth BBQ was too long so we ended up here. I'd rather wait 2 hours in a line before eating here again read more

Service was great, the waitress was nice and I know it's not her fault. The food was very basic, bland and nasty. Not worth $80. Two entrees and an appetizer. I hate leaving negative reviews but it honestly was a waste of money. read more

Great service and delicious food We were promptly seated and our waitress took good care of us. The food was fresh and tasty read more

We wanted to like Lone Star Southern Grill, but was disappointed with our experience. First, the outside was trashy. I was surprised because walking up to a restaurant is where you make a first impression. An electric leaf blower would work wonders. Second, our waitress never smiled at us. In fact, I don't think she ever made eye contact. The onion rings were pretty good, but not super hot and that was the theme with our dinner - it wasn't hot. The sides were cold. (Don't try the squash casserole.) Mashed potatoes were not freshly made. Few restaurants are serving REAL mashed potatoes and gravy. It's a shame. Third, the women's bathroom was dirty! We won't return. read more

Food was great! Chicken fried chicken and gravy with mashed potatoes and green beans is the best.

Long wait time to get food and waitress told us we beat the crowd, not sure how long it would have if we didn't. Husband chicken fried steak/ fries cold. My cheesesteak meat warm and cheese cold and onions cold. My daughter soup and salad had right temp on both. Not stopping again read more

Lone Star Southern Grill is a real gem. Blacken Catfish was crispy and cooked perfectly. Hush puppies were light not greasy. Ok Margaritas were the just like you make them at home.... Amazing!!! Great service Noise level is such you can actually talk to table I will be back. read more

We hit the spot after a band concert at the college down the street. We waited at the hostess stand and the sweet girl had to answer the phone, take online orders, AND do her regular hostess duties. She was doing a good job trying to juggle it all but we were finally seated by a waitress. Our table was in the front room which was much more pleasant and bright than the main dining room. Although you are seated near the bathrooms and parking lot, it actually wasn't too bad as far as establishments near a highway can go. Our waiter was very attentive and pleasant. We ordered fried pickles which were just regular fried pickles. Edible. We were going to order salad but figured we were at a place that is probably known for stick to your ribs kind of food...we ordered chicken fried chicken and chopped sirloin steak to share. They were both good. I liked the broccoli. The squash casserole wasn't my fave. They brought rolls as a little starter; which was a general dinner roll. They were warm and the butter was tasty. What butter isn't tasty? Am I right? It's a good next to the highway joint. Drop in if you are traveling or need a quick bite. read more

Staying in Brenham for a few days and was recommended by the locals. It was easy to find and there was ample parking. There was a short wait to be seated and our server was very polite. There was a pretty good crowd even as we entered the final hour of operation. We ordered a chicken fried chicken and a ribeye steak. Both were tasty but the sides of green beans, corn and broccoli were just OK, as if they were from a can. The interior was simple, farmhouse chic. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area and looking for some good ol' southern home cooking. read more

Lone Star Southern Grill - Chicken tenders - American Near Me - Brenham, Texas

Good southern cooking in Brenham, Tx. This place was full in the mid-afternoon on a Saturday. The waiter said the chicken fried steak was their most popular dish so we tried it. It was big and flavorful, and could be shared by 2 people. The Mac and cheese is amazing. Get 2 sides of that versus the mashed potatoes which were just okay. The service was good too. We didn't wait long for our food and we had a party of 6. Easy in and out off of hwy 290 with adequate parking. read more

Do not recommend. Not sure why this is so highly rated on yelp. Food is awful. Seemed like heat and serve food, my food actually came out with Saran wrap on some of my food. Staff is very friendly. Clean farmhouse vibe read more

Driving thru town and met a friend for lunch. Cute place. The server was quick & nice. Food came out fairly quick. Hubby had the chicken & dumplings lunch, my friend had the light grilled chicken with rice & green beans(no pic) and I had the grilled chicken sandwich. They were both good. Friend's meal looked good too. Good home cook style meals. read more

Not having a proper goodbye to what use to be the former K-Bobs kind of took the wind out of my trip of nostalgia back to my childhood stomping grounds this past weekend, but the replacement is so spectacular and scrumptious. I had to show some love to the upgraded establishment! I don't know if the place changes owners or the owners decided to try something a littleorr snazzy with the name and interior but the Lone Star Grill delivers a powerful punch of great food, service, and a spacious and welcoming dining experience that is enjoyed by only a few or even a group if you so desire. We were greeted and seated upon entering but immediately noticed the interior changes. The dining area is way more spacious and airy with lots of natural light with the addition of windows. Great investment! Once more, the other dining section that provides a little more intimacy as well as a group dining area still has natural lighting and even more social interaction if you like to talk when you eat (people still do that right)? I enjoyed dining with my Mom, catching up with some news and tea on my visit to the country, which I always appreciate doing during a meal. Ambiance is great, but without delicious food? why bother?! Lone Star actually delivered in this area as well, providing a vast menu that was reminiscent of the old KBobs menu items but with some additions such as pastas and desserts. I decided, however, to enjoy fish Friday with a filet of fried catfish. okra, and Mac n cheese. I was not disappointed in any of the items that were filling, crunchy, and cheesy - not too much salt at all - seasoned just right! Tasted the squash casserole and fried sheimp.from.my Mom's plate. I liked that the casserole actually had ample veggies in it versus a bunch of cheese and butter. Additionally, the fried shrimp were nicely sized - large or jumbo for sure. You definelty get your money's worth! Once more, to celebrate my birthday, my Mom insisted on bday dessert. My all-time favorite was on the menu (peach cobbler) with ice cream on top, so indulging was a must. A little more cooking was needed on the peaches, but the ice cream made the difference! Really enjoyed the meal and new interior changes that come with Lone Star. Although it's hard to say goodbye to an oldie but goodie of KBobs, you'll be greatly pleased to come dine at Lone Star anytime! read more

Excellent I was looking for something that was not a chain and was not a "burger joint". Lone Star Grill is just the place to get some good home cooking. The waiter was top notch and the food was excellent. I had the chopped steak with grilled onions, squash casserole, loaded baked potato, green salad and hot rolls with cinnamon butter. I went ahead and tried the peach cobbler with a big scoop of Blue Bell ice cream. WOW , WOW, WOW If that doesn't get your attention, then I don't know what does! The restaurant was clean and very friendly. If you are ever in Brenham, Texas go to the Lone Star Grill. Go get Full read more

We were super hungry when we stopped for lunch yesterday after seeing the most amazing bluebonnet fields. We were there during the lunch rush and yet the staff treated us like we were the only ones in the place. I had the fried chicken daily special and it was half a chicken with two sides for only 7.99, which was not only a hell of a deal but so tasty and made from scratch. One of my sides was onion rings and the batter was light and the onions fried to perfection. This place will become our place to eat at while hunting for bluebonnets around Brenham for years to come. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because there didn't seem to be a Covid protocol beyond the staff wearing masks. I would have liked to have seen more social distancing within the seating and patrons required to enter wearing masks. read more

Really impressed! I had heard a not so great review but decided to try it. Alex, our server, was great and very patient with my pregnant self and BFF who is also pregnant. We wanted all the things. We started with the little this little that appetizer and the cheese sticks and fried mac & cheese were all you want with friend cheese deliciousness! I'm not a friend pickle chip fan (I prefer spears) but my friend really enjoyed them. The queso I wouldn't order again, but chips were good. I got the chicken fried chicken with fried okra and squash casserole. The squash casserole was amazing! Everything was very tasty. My friend got the chicken tenders and there were so many! We were too full to get dessert but will definitely be back to try more. read more
