We came here on a Monday night for mum's birthday and the place was surprisingly busy which is a good sign (lucky we booked).
This has to be one of the best Lone star franchise in the country, great atmosphere, warm and welcoming.
Ella who looked after us for the night was very friendly and helpful. Drinks arrived quickly. We ordered prawn starter, delicious, garlicky and hearty. Mum had the lamb which she enjoyed it very much. It was tender, well balanced and the mash was creamy and delicious. Lone Star ribs never failed to delight us, it's always the highlight. Both dad and I ordered steak, dad's sirloin was a bit chewie and the fat wasn't rendered properly, which is a bit disappointed. My fillet was nicely aged and I enjoyed the red wine jus and the potato rosti..
Overall we had a really good night, and it's glad to be supporting the local business. Keep up the good work guys!
Had a cup of hot chocolate late in the afternoon. It was very good one. The staff was very attentive. The music was beautiful. I could have been sitting there for the whole evening.......
The service was great and the food is consistently good. You know what you are going to get - really enjoyed the Milky Bar Pud. We had booked a table but we had to wait 25 minutes for it - which was the only let down, but was the first time that had happened. Definitely value for money!
We eat here regularly and never once have we been disappointed. Always friendly service, beautifully cooked steak and a great range of food to choose from. We have travelled all around NZ in the past few years and still think Lone Star Pukekohe does the best steaks.
Food here was good, we started with the Lone Star Loaf, it was nice and the loaf was crusty and warm just how it should be. I had the Maverick fillet and it was cooked nicely. My boyfriend had the ribs, he said they were also very good. The service was good, the only things that I could fault would be that the atmosphere was very loud but that should be expected on a Saturday. And that the food although good is slightly overpriced
Food was great! And the margaritas were amazing! Would definitely go back. Would be five stars but just a tad on the expensive side but the portion sizes are massive. Also the staff seemed a little bewildered Once our waiter went home it became apparent no one really knew who was meant to be serving our table so seemed a bit unorganised. Otherwise was a good night
Its kinda become my goal to visit all lone stars throughout NZ.
So went here on a Saturday night for dinner. The place had a very sauve vibe to it. The energetic and the calmness is separated by two areas namely the bar and the restaurant. The food is as amazing as any lone star I have been to. The only thing worth mentioning is that they should start rotating/changing their menu.
In the pics:
Gin and tonic
Guinness
Cesar salad
Dixie chicken
Banofee pie
Pricewise: $70 for 2
Returns: Double tap on that
Pretty much always my go to when I'm in pukekohe because I haven't found many other good food restaurants like this one! There is lots of space inside, the first few times I came was for lunch so we were seated in the bar area which is much nicer than the General restaurant floor space where they seat you for dinner. Been here over half a dozen times, meals and always very yummy! I always grab something with steak but my partner's tried almost everything on the menu! Price is always expensive, but I suppose you pay for what you get. Meals are huge! Staff are usually pretty friendly too!! :)))))
Great place. The kids loved it.
I had the Nachos and they were particularly good. I would have preferred a little more heat, but i suppose this is a personal preference sort of thing.
The steak fries are quite good.
Went on Sat after visiting the Pukekohe Farmers Market, nice ambience, friendly staff. Ordered vegetarian dishes, happy with quality apart from the quantity provided. Felt price was on higher side. Ordered Martini, glass size was too small for the price. Anyways happy with overall experience.
Excellent place with truly great food and great service. Great atmosphere. Unlike the other Lonestars this one is actually quiet so you can hear yourself speak. Parking wasn't an issue and the food was truly amazing. Service was the best I've come across. Keep up the good work. Will definitely come back.
Great experience again. Good to see professional service & environment is back.
Meal was great, checked out the neighbours meals and the pork looked great.
Super cold steinlager is delish.
Meals are 2 beautifully cooked steaks and one chicken fillet.... Yum yum, well done chef!
We like to go there to watch the rugby
A lovely family friendly cafe. We ordered lamb and pork rib. The lamb was good. The pork rib was more a dish for drinking, a little too hard for young kids.
Got in early, seated and menu'd, drinks ordered and received quickly. Got our meals within 15 minutes. Never had a bad time at Lone Star, food is amazing every time! Couldn't remember our waiter's name but he was great, friendly and efficient! Thanks Pukekohe Lone Star 💜
We love Lone Star and this one was great too. Nice and friendly wait staff and quite quick service. The food came quick and was delicious. Will be back when we're next in Pukekohe.
Great outside courtyard atmosphere, fireplace for those cold Auckland nights, watched the League Finals on the tv above fireplace, great service by the bar and waitress team 💯
Although it took a while to receive my drink, it was totally justified because they were really busy and the "Dolly Parton" was well worth the wait. My friends had Mango margaritas or martinis. Thanks team.
Extremely good food and service.. will be back for sure..
Great customer service and I loved my meal! Thank use
Thank you Team for the Awesome Experience, we booked my uncles birthday here for 20 people, the staff are very friendly and chef is on point. Yummy food and warm welcoming environment. Music is great! Thank you Beth and Team. We will be back. 10 stars from me.
