Venue seems to be familiar to locals who come to drink and watch the game on one of the several tv’s, which is great, but the food is awful… and I’m not that picky. In fact, watching tv was the best part of the experience! Our 2 orders of oysters on the half shell for starters were less than acceptable when 3 or 4 of them were no more than a bit of slime on a shell not worth eating. Note to the shucker: don’t serve it, open another oyster! The remainder of the meal was so unremarkable, it’s not worth mentioning so I won’t. I’ve been here before many years ago when it was a more popular venue, but this Saturday night’s lack of crowd should have been an indication of how far it has gone downhill. I’ll eat at a drive-thru before I’ll ever come here again.

1– KEEPYOURRECEIPT2– CHECKYOURBANKCHARGES the next day 3-make sure the staff show you the 2 sizes/prices of beer mugs they use b/c I was robbed. Stopped in to catch the final quarter of a cowboys game & asked about happy hour times & prices. With an hour &15 mins left of happy hour, I ordered & drank 2(happy hour) draft beers. I also ordered & ate nachos b/c the wait staff didn’t know anything about their oysters. With 15 mins left of happy hour, I asked for the check & she ran my card. Waitress never came back to pick up my signed copy so I left. 2 days later, I checked my acct only to find that waitress changed my $ 2.90 tip into a $ 29.00 tip! And after pointing this out to mgr, the mgr credited the difference despite my request for full credit of tip AND mgr refused to credit the charges to reflect happy hour prices!!! Meaning, waitress robbed me on tip & happy hour discount. The mgr told me «I credited your tip overcharge and waitress says she’s sorry, but I can’t credit for happy hour prices». Was unable to get a response from corporate office. I deem Lone Star Oysters unworthy.

Mediocre food. Less than mediocre service. Combo plate was mostly french fries. Bartender drank at least three shots behind the bar during the hour or so I was there(on a Sunday). Seems mostly like a place where regulars(and employees) gather to drink shots and scream at the TV sports rather than an oyster bar. Too bad really, the room is welcoming enough. Better food can be found at J&J or Flying Fish. Oh yeah, there’s a nominal upcharge if you pay with plastic that isn’t shown on your check, a bit chintzy.

The food is great it is just irritating that the waitresses can’t for the life of them be able to tell me what’s on the different oyster choices, I have to sit here and try to look it up! Maybe the owner needs to put it on the menu, it would be a lot more helpful and less irritating for customers, this happens every time. I love this place but am thinking of finding somewhere new if they don’t pick it up!

Are you interested in finding all the décor of a 6th year frat basement Alabama University? Do you like seeing into the kitchen of an eating establishment and thinking to yourself«I want Gordan Ramsey to rip that place apart»? Then this is the place for you. I was craving some oysters and a late night beer(we’ve all been there), so I assumed this place would fill the need. Dark, shady, and in a strip mall. Would have fit too if I was interested in getting drunk with my aunt and all of my elementary school teachers who you find out are actually really dumb and trashy. ONEWASACTUALLYTHERE! So me and a buddy walk in and are exactly as whelmed as we expected, but I thought«give me some juicy oysters and a cold beer and it’ll be cool.» Instead I got some dry, snotty crap on a half shell(its amazing how something could be both slimy and dry at the same time, but they succeeded. Kudos) and a warm Lone Star. Nothing against Lone Star, but when your drinking urine, you’d prefer it to be cold. So with that done I knew I’d want some other food so I order a simple fried shrimp po boy and some hush puppies while my friend gets fried oysters and fries. I will describe the dishes as best I can: My sandwich had one piece of lettuce, a drop of crusty hellman’s mayo and 8 fried pieces of that hard plastic mold that holds your new replacement remote after you threw your last one against the wall when it wouldnt change the channel away from Guy Fieri fast enough, and what they called«Hush puppies» but were just pre-chewed crusts off of a Little Caesar’s pizza spit into a dirty fryer. My friend had 6 pieces of fried turd surrounded by a pile of shoe polish color potatoes that weren’t salted. NOTEVENSALTED. We took about 4 bites trying to make it through our night, shook our heads, downed our Lone Star and went to the Steak ‘n Shake down the street. So come for the liquor, and stay because you had so much of it you don’t know where the door is, because it isn’t the food keeping you around.

Great Go To Place. I have written a few reviews especially if it is a new place and I realized I need to give credit to one of my favorite GOTO places. Yes I frequent Lone Star weekly and that is because whether I am dieting or seafood hungry I get great selections, good service, great drinks. You can never go wrong with their oysters half shell, fried, or an oyster shooter they really are above average. Also on another trip I noticed they had a gator special! It was fresh and reminded me of Florida. No it is not on the menu but it never hurts to ask when it’s in season. So this is just a reminder to me to make sure I compliment one of my Favorite Goto Places… Thanks for having consistently good food! I know this is an Oyster Bar but try the nacho’s they are great!!! So yes for a Sports Bar with Cold Beer and Great Service, Good Food and a great place to meet with friends it is 5 Stars…

Love the gumbo and the buffalo shrimp! Always the coldest beer on tap! Would have given more stars but they have NO craft beer on tap.

My husband and I had wanted to try this place for a while but hadn’t gotten around to it. We love seafood! Saturday on our way home from church we decided to try it. We came in and stood for a minute at the front door but when no one came to seat us, we figured it was a seat yourself place so we took a table near the front door. The place was busy but not packed. There were four open tables near us. Two other tables were cashing out. We looked at the menu and were pretty excited about dinner. We never got acknowledged. Another couple came in and sat at the table next to us. A server got their drink order but still no dice with us. After waiting sometime… my husband asked a passing server if we could place an order and she politely said sure and asked us what we would like to drink. She then walked to the table that just cashed out and started to clean it off. The couple who ordered drinks prior to us hadn’t gotten their drinks yet and busting a table was priority. After a while we hadn’t got our drinks so we decided to try dinner someplace else. I can’t speak to the food but the service is not just terrible but nonexistent.

The stuffed jalapeños were delicious but the Po Boy was just ok… Asked our server about the bread used(which is really what makes the sandwich to me) she assured me it was really good… It was ok, but nothing like a NOLA Po Boy. Key Lime pie was good, but I’m guessing it wasn’t homemade– tasted kinda frozen, disappointed that was the only dessert choice. Overall good but not great food, service was quick and friendly.

Great food but iffy service. My girlfriend and I came in a Sunday and it was maybe 25% full. We sat down and waited about 10 minutes before the manager came out and asked if we had been helped and took our drink order. The waitress brought our drinks out and took our order. We got two pounds of crawfish, a dozen oysters, and the death fries. Let’s start with the oysters: delicious. Not sure why others are saying they are small. They appears to be the same size as every other restaurant I’ve eaten them at. Shucked and cleaned well and about $ 0.98/oyster. Death fries: not bad but if you don’t eat them within 5 minutes of them hitting your place it’s basically a block of congealed cheese. The fries were cooked well, which always helps when eating french fries. Crawfish: great quality. A few of them were torn to shreds, but I can look past that. The meat came right in and you didn’t have to fight for it. The only thing I didn’t like is that they had almost no flavor. I even ordered a pound of the spicy crawfish to see if that helped and it didn’t. It you lick the shell and then eat the meat it’s pretty good, but who wants to do that. Overall this place is pretty good, but the service is spotty. They seem to work short staffed.

Ok let’s start with what was good… fried catfish. That’s pretty much it. Service not very friendly. Stale smoky odor throughout. Margarita even with a shot added was basically lime juice with ice. Blackened shrimps were as shrimpy and tough as could be imagined… make sure not to add salt. Cold fries, but lots of them(woohoo). If you want to sub broccoli and rice casserole it’s 2.99 which is the price of the side so no discount. Atmosphere is folks on business at the couple of hotels nearby mostly it seems. One would think in a neighborhood place you would have more local patronage, though can’t really say. Used to come here for lunch and shrimp hoagie was always good. If you’re in the area and want this type of food definitely go to Razoos instead, which is in the same shopping center. Food is much better, no smoky smell, friendlier and prettier waitresses, sides can be swapped with no charge and drinks are healthy pours. I’m usually willing to give a spot another chance but not his one.

It’s a sports bar that has oysters. That about sums it up. The service was OK, the food is fried, and the oysters are fresh. Beer is a touch on the expensive side but the oysters are on the cheaper side so that makes up for it. A good spot to go for oysters, especially on Tuesday’s, but probably not the best place to go to get your drink on.

Yesterday the boyfriend and I were craving some oysters on the half shell… And wanting something near his house lone star was the winning place for dinner. They were on the small side but very delicious. We went through two dozen in no time. We also got the pick three combo; shrimp, oysters and fried crab. Came with fries and a salad. The oysters and fries were the shining stars for me. Fried oysters were breaded in cornmeal, my favorite! Service was bare minimal, not awful not good. We will be back very soon for their Tuesday night oyster special!

Im downgrading this two stars as I originally posted before my bill was provided. Now I see they charge to use the a debit card and the server was completely rude by explaining how I should’ve read the small sticker on the door before entering the restaurant for the privilege of an additional charge to pay for my food with a card.

My Lordy Lordy have the mighty have fallen. Last visit wasn’t good, so we decided to try it again. We sat down to a dirty table, and the receipt from the guests before us was still on the table. Being nosey, I looked at it, and it was a $ 67 bill and a $ 5 tip. I thought, what a cheapskate! Little did I know it was a vision of service to come. Our server, absoloutely gorgeous, was dumber than a bag of hammers. She came back twice to ask me again what beer I wanted. Coors freakin light man, geez… The drinks were ice cold, as usual. This young lady couldn’t remember my beer order, and decided to take our orders and store it in her memory:( Shocker: Orders were wrong. We decided to just eat what we were served, blackened catfish. I took the first bite, spit it out and realized the fish was bad! My wife never took a bite, thank goodness. I paid for our drinks, and we left. The restaurant experience was over, but my tummy issues were just starting… Long nite! Let me finish by saying this used to be our go to spot. It sucks when you lose a good friend, but man, with friends like that, who needs the stomach flu:(
