Lone Star Cafe — Restaurant in Grapevine

Someone stopped at our table 20 times minimum. I was asked if we needed anything. I asked for napkins. I didn't get them but no worries I was asked again. I was asked if I wanted grits or fruit with my meal. I picked grits. My order was wrong the first time. I waited patiently while my family ate without me. When it came the second time I asked where the grits were. They were brought to the table then I was told it doesn't come with the meal. I took it anyway because by this time I'm hungry and annoyed. I was told the grits were removed from my bill since the order came out wrong initially... so... the grits I was offered as if it was part of the meal was comp WOW thanks! The bill came and was $41 for the three of us. I gave my credit card and the receipt was returned with a charge amount of $49. I was told it was changed because my original receipt didn't include the drinks. While I understand there was an error on their end there wasn't communication about the change in my bill until AFTER my card had been charged. I asked the waitress if she charged my card an additional amount without letting me know first and she said yes because they didn't add drinks. She then walked off and returned with the original receipt to show me where they made a mistake. While I'm happy to pay for anything I order I don't think it's appropriate to take my card telling me it will be charged one amount and charging extra without the courtesy of letting me know first. The horrid service completely overshadowed the meal. Never again. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone that is hungry upon arrival or...

I got the Chorizo Skillet Scrambler with tomatoes and mushrooms added. It was pretty good. I asked for some salsa and that added to the flavor. I had to ask a second time for the milk I ordered and it was $3.50 for a small glass. My order was $19.95 for the skillet and milk so it was $24 after my tip. I totally understand the cost though. It is in a premium location so I know their rent is astronomical. I also know that with this Biden economy that smaller places are having a very hard time keeping the bills paid and the doors open so at this point I don't fault ownership for the very high priced milk and not so inexpensive meal in general. That's the norm regardless of where you dine in this very difficult economy. I see places closing their doors all over the place and hear of major chains shutting down stores all across our nation. Ya'll better hope Trump wins or things are going to get much much worse, and not just for your retailers, for all of us! Everything is going up, up, up and up again! As far as casual dining, well it's not going to be so casual anymore, very quickly if things don't change and very soon! In any case, their AC was not working very well either. It was very hot outside even at 10:30a it was like 100°. It was almost too uncomfortable to enjoy my meal. If it had been any hotter outside, which it will be as the day gets older it would not be fit for someone like myself to relax and enjoy a meal on the inside. Like I posted, I give it a 3.5 to 4 star rating. They definitely need to get that AC going strong. If the AC was right I would give it a...

Looking at all these reviews and driving by this place many times and seeing it full I was eager to try it. I finally got a chance to stop in and give the brunch a try. It took probably a good 2-3 mins for what looked like owner and manager at the front to even notice me and offer me to a table. Ok no big deal seemed like they were handling something. I can give that a pass. The busser came over and got my drink order and brought it right away, ok a plus there. It took the waitress another 10 minutes to even come over and acknowledge my table (mind you the restaurant was not packed, steady but not busy). She took my order. Then took 20 mins to get the food (it was just me dining in so only 1 simple classic American breakfast and nothing special). She did come out with the food and did apologize for the wait. Food was subpar (I'm a huge breakfast foodie and know what great even good breakfast food is and this was not it). Waitress only checked in once and didn't come back. In between that visit and the time I was finished with my meal I had finished with my drink and had not even been offered a refill or a glance towards the table. When I finished the polite busser did come to my table and prebus. But I still sat there before the waitress even noticed I had no food no drink and was ready to go before she brought me my bill. I'm sorry but both the food and the service of this place is lacking and needs some work before I will...
