| - Funny that there is not a Lone Star Steakhouse in the Lone Star State, but in West Mifflin! We were celebrating a birthday, and Lone Star was the requested stop. It was nice, and quiet for a Saturday, no long waits, and a great server (Dave), who went along with our sense of humor.
(The pail of peanuts were nowhere to be found, so I'm not sure if they've stopped serving those)
The brown bread was warm and squishy soft, unfortunately the butter too cold to spread. We ordered the Taste of Texas Sampler for starters, the fried onion strings, and the Lone Star skins were the big hits. The hot buffalo chicken tenders, perfect without the hassle of bones.
Main entrees were a few racks of ribs, a Cajun Ribeye, a Peppercorn Ribeye, and a Sweet Bourbon salmon. My Cajun Ribeye was cooked correctly to medium, well seasoned, and 'blackened'. Those who ordered ribs, and the Peppercorn Ribeye (well done) had no complaints about their meats. I did notice the salmon portion seemed small, the baked sweet potato was larger than the fish! That was the only disappointment.
Nice for a good dinner, even if a real Texas cowboy is nowhere in sight.
