Review for Lone Star Diner…read more I recently ordered takeout from Lone Star Diner and was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the food and the generous portions. I had the Chicken Fried Steak special with a baked potato (butter and sour cream), and it was exceptionally tasty--perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. While my onion rings were unfortunately left out of the order, it turned out to be a minor issue because my grandmother and I shared her side of fried okra, which was served in a large portion. My grandmother, who is 98 and typically eats very little, ordered the small three-piece chicken strip meal but was pleasantly surprised to receive six large strips. These weren't your typical frozen chicken tenders; they were clearly cut from fresh breast meat and appeared to be hand-breaded. The fried okra was also excellent--crispy, flavorful, and abundant. Since this was a takeout order, I can't comment on the dine-in experience, but the pickup process at the drive-thru window was smooth and convenient. Lone Star Diner delivers exactly what you'd hope for in small-town comfort food: great flavors, generous portions, and a sense of hospitality even with takeout. Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving a hearty, homestyle meal!

At first glance, this place doesn't look welcoming, but if you relied on your first impression you…read morewill have missed a fantastic meal, homey atmosphere, and friendly staff. I passed through winters on the way to Colorado, and stopped at Lone Star for a bite to eat. We were met by the owner, Ms Linda, and a waitress, Whitney. Both of them were so welcoming, and really made us feel at home. We had the daily special, a plate of fried catfish, and a slice of blackberry cobbler for dessert. All of the recipes are Ms Linda's, and they are DELICIOUS. The catfish was perfect, crispy and flavorful, and we had some of her homemade tartar sauce to dip. For the sides we had baked potatoes (BEST baked potato I've ever eaten- seriously) and green beans. The blackberry cobbler was made with blackberries from the owners garden, and homemade. While we were eating, Ms Linda came by and chatted with us about the town, the restaurant, her recipes, and asked us about where we were headed. Eating at this restaurant feels like stopping by your grandmas house for dinner, homey, delicious, and feel-good. Next time I'm passing through Winters, I will definitely be stopping by Lone Star for another piece of cobbler!

The parking spaces in front are limited, but there is street parking. I was by myself and took a seat over to the side. There is one big dining room with tables along the walls and in the center. The kitchen and restrooms are in the back. This is a family style restaurant, with just a few decorations like a mural of a Mexican scene on one wall. Everything appeared clean as far as I could see. My server was pleasant and brought me some chips and salsa. Chips are the typical thin American style. The salsa is medium spicy, tomatoey and zipped in a blender. I ordered the "guiso plate" and was told I could choose between hand made flour or store-bought corn tortillas. I prefer corn, so I was promptly served the carne guisada along with corn tortillas (which were quite good). The carne guisada had more of an American gravy texture and taste than most carne guisada I have had in Mexico. But I slathered the salsa over it and that pepped it up. This is not a trendy place nor super fancy, but you can find good food and pleasant service. As I left I requested some iced tea to go, and they were happy to oblige, and that was nice as I had a long drive ahead of me. I would go back when I have occasion to go through Ballinger.

Found this place because of the Christmas lights outside, otherwise if you're not from the area you would miss it. I ordered the chicken enchiladas with red sauce.

The entire thing reminded me of my old co-workers cooking when she would cook for us every other Thursday for lunch in our office in California. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating.
