Lone Star Dunedin

Love the food here, very cute atmosphere, and their cocktails and dessert are amazing. Definitely worth dining at. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of five is because both times my partner and I came here, the servers kinda just forgot about us towards the end of our meals? The first time we came here, we had great service at the beginning and middle. I ordered dessert and asked for a cocktail with it. The dessert came, cocktail never did, and after waiting for a bit we saw that our server was leaving for the night. We didn't think it was that big of a deal, as we weren't charged for the missing cocktail or anything (we figured the server just had a hard night and forgot, so we didn't make a fuss), so we just finished eating, paid and left. But a similar thing happened the second time we dined in. Again, great service at the start. We got our starters and cocktails, then ordered and ate our main meal. When we were done eating we stacked our plates while we waited for the waitress to come collect them and offer a dessert menu. She didn't come back to us, but was around taking care of other tables next to us, serving/clearing plates/offering dessert menus etc, so it's not like we were out of sight/out of mind. We sat and waited maybe 15-20 minutes after we had stacked our dinner plates together (to try and make it obvious we were done eating and make it easier for her to collect them). After that, we went up to the front register and were able to flag her down there to let her know we still needed service. At this point we were there so long, we decided to just get dessert to go instead of eating in. So overall, good experience and great food/drinks, but being forgotten about at the end of the night sullies the experience slightly. We'll still come back for the yummy food, I just hope the third time will be the charm =) [I also want to note that the second time we came, there was not a kallpod on the table]
