Reviews of Lone Star Nelson

Very warm welcome, plenty of different spaces to sit. Good variety on the menu including gluten free. We had the steak special which was very delicious, steak was tender & terrific. I had the kiwi pavlova which was scrumptious. Lovely ambience.

I. S.

Had dinner there tonight. I wish I hadn't. Huge meal, huge flavours, perfectly cooked fish. Young enthusiastic and welcoming staff. Great setting in downtown Nelson. If only every Lone Star was as good as this one. Shame I'm only in Nelson every few years.

S. B.

Great food ,ambiance & service! One of the very few restaurants in Nelson where we get big portions ! Also to mention their Classic Burrrito , Johnny Cash Stash and Rib-eye steak . Totally loved their Cheesecake & crème brûlée. A special mention to their Butter Garlic Prawn starter . A perfect spot for celebrations !

T. E.

Had a great meal here. Staff were all very good. Sat us beside open doors which was great because nice warm night. Photo of pan fried fish (Tarakihi) and Lasso of Hogg.

S. M.

Never a dull meal here! Absolutely wonderful customer service. Warm inside and out! (I had already started eating before taking photo, so mind what's on the side) The ribs are the best I've ever had 😍

L. L.

Celebrated our anniversary for dinner. Everything from the entree, mains and dessert was endlessly delicious. First time back since lockdown and staff were friendly and superb customer service. Amazing experience and definitely would come back next time 😃

R. P. F.

We had dinner. We booked an external table in the dog friendly area. Water bowl ready to go for the little guy when we arrived. Service was excellent and Steve and his team very upbeat and chatty. Food was great.

E. M.

Great service, Daniel was amazing. Steak was superb. The staff kindly gave me a free dessert and cap as it was my birthday. Would come again.

c. T. K.

Tonight we celebrated my son's 21st at Lone Star Nelson. Thank you Gardie for taking care of everything, you rock! Great service, great food & great night.

M. C.

Lovely meal, steak beautifully cooked, potatoes were lovely. Staff were great. The atmosphere was great for me and the family.

A. A.

The waitress was polite and was very helpful. Big portions of food that can take away.

D. K.

Good food. Absolutely garbage service. 90 mins to get fed. No warnings, no apologies, not all that busy. Not the fault of the Staff who seemed ok, just poorly managed. Note: the response below is appreciated but that was not me. It was another couple. We got no apology and no discount. I will add a star for taking on feedback.

P. S.

Primo place for the family to eat out. We rocked in Saturday night had a yummy kai (ribs and chicken nibbles) , they also have friendly staff and no long waits.

K. N.

Great, friendly service Lovely food ... steak was cooked exactly to my liking

D. D.

Lone Star always deliver on the food but have great drinks specials too. Reliable as a brand.

C. S.

Amazing service from staff, all super friendly. Really great food, you get alot for your money, will definitely be going back. 😁

Great food also great beer/ music Customer service was great too

m. p.

Awesome service 👏 and really big meals 😋 will definitely recommend

T. F.

Can't beat a family gathering at lone star. Always fantastic food, exceptional friendly staff.

J. R.

Always a great meal and great for a. Early dinner with the kids. Try to save room for the yummy desserts!

Fantastic service and absolutely amazing food! Lone Star Nelson has been a family favourite for years and never disappoints! Such a great atmosphere and very friendly and welcoming staff. One small mistake in a friend's meal but they were very quick to fix it.

A. G.

Fantastic meal & service as usual. Nice to go out for our first time since lockdown.

A. C.

First we were a bit skeptical to come back after bad experience, in reality, their service and meals have been improved significantly. We really enjoyed our huge meal, free range baked chicken Johnny Cash, perfectly cooked. Highly recommended. I put weight after that 😉

J. R.

Have been here twice recently. Cocktail was nice, mains a bit average and bland both times, big meals. Deserts delish always. Service great both times

M. H.

Love Lone Star first time taking a baby asked for a high chair when I booked online was really good great service as usual and really busy New Year’s Eve .

Here for our honeymoon, the food was amazing food and the service was fantastic. Dixie chicken & Ribs yummy and a non alcoholic Juice Newton topped it all off. They made our final night in Nelson a great experience thank you!! Best Lonestar I've dined at :)

N. E. B.

This is not our first visit to Lone Star. We have been here a few times over a couple of years... the food is up and down. Tonight's meals were average. My sirlion steak was a quarter of fat and tough to eat. My husband's hog was ok. Our son was asked if he wanted his meal classic or meduim... we thought it was to do with how spicy hot he wanted, not the size. The staff have always been super friendly and helpful... very efficient. Seems to be busy with customers. Quite loud inside.... not really for a romantic dinner... if one was thinking of that.

N. O.

Awesome they donated bunch of vouchers to our cricket club for a quiz night. The owner is a stand up guy and food was amazing

I. v. Z.

Went here for a birthday dinner with the family. Staff was great and everyone loved their dinner. Really comfy atmosphere and the barman certainly looks well after you. A new favorite for me.

Good staff, nice food

I. V.

Fantastic food! amazing atmosphere, lovely staff/service and very reasonable prices, why would you go anywhere else?

A. C.

I have had a few meals and drinks at Lone Star in Nelson over the past couple of years. This is not like a franchise store. The staff and the owner really want to provide the best possible service and in my experience deliver on that. I like the bar area and the snacks. My favorite is the squid rings. They have amazing flavor and the lemon wedge really adds the zing that makes this snack exceptional. As for the mains I prefer either a steak or rhe massive portion of spare ribs. I am impressed enough to say that even if you love smaller boutique style restaurants that this venue is definitely worth a visit. Thank you to the owner Garge and your team. You deserve this 5 star rating.

H. M.

Excellent service, excellent food with generous servings. Attentive staff without being intrusive. Great at offering extra drinks, an obvious earner which very few restaurants seem to bother with. Can't fault this place.

Amazing delicious food , friendly staff . Great company

J. M.

Great meal. Great service. Friendly staff. Recommend to anyone.

R. R.

Awesome vide great service and good food. And best of all super amazing drinks. A local spot and a must for all visiting Nelson.

A. P.

Service was fantastic as always. Steak cooked just right. Music very tasteful and not too loud.

G. D.

Great service wonderful food and a very cool interesting atmosphere......personally my portion could of been a wee bit bigger....when compared to the meat eaters at my table (I had the fish)...

Great service, really attentive even though we went on a bank holiday.

L. G.

Brilliant night, fab atmosphere and great food! Made my boys birthday super special. Thanks so much, we'll be back soon!

V. T.

Food was good. Restaurant was a bit too nosy. Service in general was good, the only downside was that we weren't told the specials, when I heard every table thereafter being told.

D. C.

Great service, great food. Music was a bit loud but they did turn it down when we asked after they sat our family right underneath a speaker.

a. d.

Awesome food as usual and fierce competition in the coloring in.

Amazing food and excellent service, lighting is a bit dim and a bit hard the eyes but overall a top tier 5 star restaurant!

S. C.

Just wanted to say a big thanks to the manager who helped us out tonight. Good service, great food, warm atmosphere and genuinely nice people.

N. P.

Lovely food but had to ask where our meals were after watching 2 tables arrive after us and get their food before us...waited 45mins for 3 kids meals and a salad.

S. n.

Good food. Was a little noisy considering it was a quiet night with not a large number of diners. Good service and not a long wait for food.

J. W.

Was so busy . Service slow but professional. Food outstanding. Totally recommend too others but would advise make a booking.

A. L.

Fantastic food with a great vibe. The food was well portioned and it all had a very wild west feel that felt really well done The waitresses were all lovely and I felt it was reasonably priced

Asked for rare but got medium

s. a.

Love this place the staff are so polite! the food is amazing! The owner is such a good person they all work around to make sure that you're satisfied as he said himself to me once "our job is to Please everyone" would definitely recommend this over 623 in the city any day.

J. T.

Lone Star has the best food I've ever had, never had a bad meal or experience here. Margarita jugs were something i didn't know i needed!

Great spot - excellent service, friendly bar staff and sensational food. Highly recommend.

K. G.

Came from Auckland, big Lone Star fans of Albany in Auckland had to visit the one in Nelson, such a wonderful atmosphere amazing helpful staff, prices always fair and portions generous. Most of all the best Lonestar we have been in, go to Nelson put this on the list and go there you will not be disappointed.

K. T.

Broad range on the menu. But I felt over all it lacks some what from in the past. Still a good place to eat out.

S. M.

Bit too noisy and very slow service. To be fair they were extremely busy and were happy to accommodate 4 people off the street. Were told we could sit but had to be out by a certain time....that was never going to happen 😕

H. T.

Visited this fantastic place whilst on a two day business trip to Nelson. Service, beer, food and music all fabulous. Drinks ice cold and steak cooked to perfection. So good I visited both nights and both were equally on point. Would highly recommend - all the team were attentive, friendly and the atmosphere was great. Great to be back again supporting businesses.

J. F.

Table option wasn't a very good one. Service was reasonable. Food was consistent and good. Specials are generally not money savers - new items that are not featured on their everyday menu. I really enjoy these restaurants. Big sized servings for most menu items.

L. O.

Food was great!! Although I did think only one sever was meant to come to our table? We had 3. Only down fall was the waitress constantly trying to clear our plates and asking us if we were finished

It was a great night with delicious food ❤️😋

A. L.

Friendly staff, great tasting food with generous portion sizing. If you have a craving for ribs then Lone Star is the place to go! Bring a bib :D

a. h.

Awesome place with huge meal portions. Lovely wait staff. Came here with friends on 15th September. I ordered a steak. I totally recommend it. Also try Lasoo of hog. Will visit soon. Cheers

N. P.

Great service, nice atmosphere and decent reasonably priced food.

Great selection of food with larger portions than the average resteraunt, be prepared to take half of your meal home.

B. L.

Had a lovely meal our sever Chelsea was fun and we had great service for our first visit we will be coming back

E. A. J.

Great food. Nice service and friendly staff. Good vegetarian options too.

P. T.

We did my grandsons 21st here and the staff went over board. The food was magnificent. Could not fault them. Fully recommended these guys

Great food and service would go there again for a meal 😊

Hadn't been to a Lone Star in years and was surprised how good everything was. Maybe a little pricey. But can't complain about the quality and taste. It won't be so long for the next visit

C. B.

Iconic. Great food and service. No better excuse to eat to much! Ribs... nothing more needs to be said

K. L. R.

This Nelson Lone Star was a massive improvement on any of my previous experiences. The pork dish was yummy. It was quite noisy but that is to be expected with a full house.

K. A.

Should have been told a big group arrived just before us.. Waiting a hour.. Asked if kitchen had a problem.... Then they told us!! Meal was great as always!!! Also gave us Fee stuff

S. B.

Great food. Awesome and super friendly staff. Next time in Nelson will definitely be eating here again

V. R.

Great meal, lovely wine and excellent friendly service from Tamika, will definitely be back on my next work trip.

A. M.

Fantastic food an service. Thank you so much to all the staff an team work.

R. E.

Can't fault the food or drink but the service was not the quickest and the waitress wasn't the brightest of sparks. Was a bit disappointed when they run out of our dessert options.

B. H.

Great place to eat out, 2nd time I have been there.

Amazing service and atmosphere. Food was delicious. Would highly recommend.

Lovely food but very noisy with people all trying to talk over the music. I struggled to hear the person sitting next to me.

M. Q.

Wow! Absolutely amazing! Great team you guys have and incredible menu! Could not fault it 😍 best restaurant in Nelson hands down!

S. D.

I had a reasonable meal, but when I entered the establishment I was ignored to the point I nearly walked out. The service from a particular young man made up for that.

T. N. (. G.

Amazing food and great environment! Wait staff were lovely especially Chelsea! Great waitress with a fun personality!

4stars for me. The wait time for the meal took about 40 mins. How ever they give you good deals if your a member and the food is delicious.

L. L.

A great place for tired travelers. Lovely staff and well presented delicious food. Thank you for a pleasant night!

J. P.

Lost their way . Go back to original menu. Staff pleasant , meals okay.

Great meal and awesome service

J. P.

Good food but the serving sizes are enormous. Good one for the boys.

Friendly service, decent food and portion sizes.

A. F.

We arrived early, to avoid the crowds. Service was good, and the food was tasty. We made use of the loyalty application and saved some money. It's a sports bar so the volume increased as more patrons arrived. It's not a romantic or atmospheric place but has good steak. There's a kids menu with multiple options including a 'free' drink and dessert.

C. K.

Food was good. Very busy because of Mothers Day which caused a delay, but to be expected.

Staff were lovely + accommodating and food was delicious

J. R.

I seem to have a habit of eating my food before thinking "oh, that's right I was going to take a photo of that". 10/10 would eat a delicious medium rare steak again!

S. J.

Great selection of food for everyone, various prices for every budget. Yummy garlic bread, frozen passionfruit margarita is amazing and friendly staff!

M. F.

Nice big steak. Good service and decent beers on tap.

M. A.

Edit: Second time around visiting, and definitely not the standard or quality as previously. Dropping to 3*'s. Gut busting meal, was great after Abel Tasman walk

H. T.

Really enjoyed our meal & cocktails, the server really knows the menu which was really great, will be back!

I feel very fulfilled. BB King Ribs were delish!

T. T.

Great food service was a bit dicey but enjoyed it

These guys are awesome. Food is Delicious... best steak & ribs in town! Dixie chicken is to die for too! They stand by their good name and Steve has always done right by us if we have by chance had a complaint. Highly recommend to all :)

I'm surprised that this place is so quiet. Really good lonestar. Girl who served us was very polite.

J. M.

Spectacular!! No matter where in the country you are you can always get great food and friendly wait staff

M. 0.

Massive improvement on my last experience a year ago, Juicy tender steak and beautiful fries with a tasty mushroom sauce. Appeared a little short staffed otherwise would be 5 stars.

A lovely meal but disappointed it was served on a cold plate

Busy but good service with solid food.

Don't eat all day and have tea here . Great food. Friendly staff

Best beer prices barman/owner friendly prior forces member

H. R.

Warm. Popular. Worth booking on busy nights. Portions were a little small compared to what I remembered of Lone Star but still flavoursome. The "Prawn Star" main was the best of the selection we tried.

D. H.

Salmon was perfect choice for birthday meal & the service superb! We will be back!

A. O.

Lone star Nelson is really good Friendly staff and always Good food and cocktails .Love those Margaritas

S. B.

Perfection. Got more than expected and was great quality. Zero complaints and ++ for extra quality!!

D. T.

Excellent facilities. This is the best Lone Star that I have been too in two countries. The atmosphere is very nice. My wife and I enjoyed our meals. I must comment on the service we received. Totally unexpected from a New Zealand restaurant. The amount of care from our entry, seating, drinks, meal, dessert offer and receiving the bill was brilliant! The owners and manager should be very proud of the service offered on the 10th of July 2018. The food was very well presented. Cooked perfectly and tasted awesome. I would reccomend eating here and next time we visit Nelson we will be back. Thanks Chef! There is plenty of seating. The restaurant was reasonably busy but not noisy. The place is exceptionally warm and it was freezing outside. The heating was a little warm for other guests and the staff happily turned of the heating directly above them which did not effect the heating at our table. Great place - Eat here!

S. P.

Amazing staff and good food!

Great staff. Great service.

Good food and service!

N. L.

I came in at 8:45pm with my family for dinner as we just got back to town. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. I suffer from a variety of food allergies and often feel like I'm being a bother when I have to chop and change my meal. The staff were all happy to help and made me feel really comfortable. They are always punctual and polite. This is our favourite restaurant in Nelson. I would highly recommend to anybody and I definitely will be visiting again.

Good amount of food but long wait

P. G.

A really good find on exploring this lovely town of Nelson! Parallel to main bars and outside cafes but what a find. Great staff especially Zach who made us most welcome. We shared a veggie dish and it was just superb. Easily filled us both and there was plenty. Goid prices and excellent food. Do visit Lone Star when in Nekson

Good food good service.

Awesome service and great food

Great service. Fab food

Best spare ribs from any of lone star restaurant's

J. M.

So this is based on 2 nights of service, food and atmosphere back to back. Night 1: Arrived around 650pm, medium attendance. Wait staff were happy to seat us and seeemed pleasant. Seat was in the bull pen infront of a tv and close to fire. Wait staff were very accommodating getting drinks and taking starters. We had the ribs to share, mains: chicken burger, 2 x steak sirloin. 1 haf no chips and a side of green vegetables and garlic butter (keto order). Steak was ordered medium rare on both. The ribs came out and they were awesome. Good flavour and the meat fell off the bone. Shared between the party of 3. Another round of drinks and the mains came. The bar wss pretty much full by that point approx. 740pm. All 2 patrons meals were as per order apart from the sear on the steak..............very poor, especially consideringthe price tag of nzd 35. Mine was full of fries which i had asked to be removed. The garlic butter was on the side and not on the steak to melt and the seasonal vegies were in a side plate. The meal including drinks was 223 nzd. And the food was about bar value, not what you would expect from a meatery. Night 2: The night after the last me and partner and my mate hit the lone star for another round......you know see if we can improve. We were seated outside and the fire was going above. Again......the wait staff were amazing. We ordered chicken 3 ways....2 x stuffed and 1 x normal with sauce. Again i asked for no chips and the kitchen delivered. I found my chicken to be moist and delicious, but the presentation had little to be desired for. Pretty much just slumped on a plate like a normal 1000000th customer. No care. My partners chicken was almost blanched and just tasted like..........boiled chicken. Again 3 x people with drinks, paying around 222 nzd. So 2 x nights back to back dining, about $500nzd and i am pushing a 3 star. The 1st star is for the fact they served food. On a plate and warm. The price tag for the food is way to high as it doesn't represent the quality you would expect for a 35nzd meal. The 2nd star is for the wait staff....absolutely top notch, even in crazy peak mode. With out these people this place would be another kitchen nightmares. The 3rd star is for the ambience, great soft old school music, bit of footy that doesn't dominate, and just a good vibe. 3 out of 5, but i wouldn't recommend as a high end.........best if you are on the business or company credit card.....not your own money.

Great staff and steak

Potato wedges were average that could have been out of a packet. they used to be actual roast potatoes pieces

very nice meal and the service was fast and courteous.

Food great. Service great.

Delicious Tex Mex style food. Fast service in spite of the crowd

P. D.

We had good food and good service, I would recommend to anyone

P. S.

Going to loan star nelson tonight to try it out. Will be writhing a full review on my food report blog for the world to see. Hope the family enjoy this night out. So we had a great night out with my boy getting a free shirt etc. Thanks to all the staff for a great night

Very good, relaxing and warm friendly staff

N. W.

Excellent service & meal.

Great gluten free and vegetarian options.

Steak was nice friendly staff

Busy night, average service. Always a good feed though.

Awesome food and service

Good food. Better Beer!!!

P. S.

Service is very hit or miss. Most meals are $32.00 now. Thats some nice meat with chips and coleslaw, mashed spud, and or lots of sause. We were a table of 4. With 6 other tables only needing service. Our drinks took 20 minutes. Why ? The food took close to 1 hour. Why ? The waitress asked, Who's beer is this. Then placed the full glass on the opposite side of the table from me. She should have placed it in front of me. She could not be bothered to walk to my side of the table. Then they went back to standing around. Very slack. Some ALL of them need more training Sorry. The plate is always full with food and its seldom not good. Im fussy but i am paying. I dislike chips under the steak and gravey poured all over it. Im lucky to get many that arnt soggy. Thats my only compliant and the lazy service which i have sorry to say become used to.

Yummy food, lovely friendly smiling staff 👍

Great food and plenty of it

K. T.

An awesome meal best steak for a long time great service

a. s.

We had a work dinner there last night, as a vegetarian, was disappointed to find only one vegetarian option, featuring beans(which I can't eat), with all the vegetarian alternatives to burger patties, mince etc in supermarket freezers these days, I thought there would have been more options.

Great food great people great establishment!!

Nice meal. Quick service and easy to get to

Lasso of Hog 👍👍👍👍 Always a great meal..... thanks guys.

Best food in Nelson city

Nice meal but ribeye was a tad grisly

Big menu and good selection of tap beer

Delicious food and fantastic service,!!

Always great meals

Never been to Nelson before and the staff made us feel welcome and the food was yum.

Great food thanks

The service and food was all excellent. Thank you

S. T.

Ordered my ribeye steak medium but is was overcooked (well) with no pink center at all. Pretty dry piece of meat. Wife had hers ordered medium-rare and it was tender and juicy. Service was quick & nice (5/5). Atmosphere only 2/5 due to loud music & dark interior.

The best lone star in NZ we are lucky to have Steve and his team here

S. M.

Great food, the sizes are huge!

D. H.

They had a mix up with our order. We waited and waited, then realised something was wrong. Our meal was hugely delayed, but they compensated by giving us free bread and two desserts ;-)

Great family restaurant.

Great friendly staff and great tasting food 😋

The Food Is Delicious, The Drinks Range From Alcohol To Non Alcohol, Coffee Is Fantastic, And, The Staff Are The Most Fantastic And, Friendly Group of People You Will Ever Wish To Meet So YES, YES,YES! IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A FANTASTIC AND ENJOYABLE EVENING OUT, VISIT THE LONE STAR NELSON. Sonny James Milner! (Ajay)

I had the fish, my husband chose a burger. My fish was perfectly cooked, served with a caper sauce on mashed potatoes with salad. The burger came with fried and aioli. It has bacon and egg in it as well as a big Pattie that looked home made and was flavored with herbs. We were in a hurry, eating there on our way to something else. Our meal was delivered quickly. I definitely would recommend this restaurant. Sorry, I didn't have time for photos.
