    Crawfish, snow crab claws & boiled shrimp, fried fish(3) & shrimp(6) combo, shrimp fried rice, chicken wings(10), turkey necks
    Lanha T.

    Tis the (crawfish) season. Lone Star has been our go to seafood spot on the Southside of town for years. The food is always hot and fresh. You know the seafood is cooked well when the snow crab easily comes out of the shell and the shrimp peels easily. The crawfish is currently medium in size ($10.99/lb). The stuffed boudin balls have a good amount of shrimp and cheese in the middle all while being nice and crispy. A household favorite is the shrimp fried rice. They do not skimp on the shrimp. Service is quick and all of the staff are friendly. Lone Star is a good place to grab food, an iced cold beer and catch a game if you dine in.

    Pound of Crawfish and a half pound of huge shrimp . They were nice and hot!! I got the mild and they were very flavorful. Check out their Facebook Specials, that is what got me there.

    We stopped by a small family restaurant for a quick Saturday lunch. Despite having very little people in the restaurant, we had really good service and fresh food from the kitchen. We ordered the box and the shrimp Poboy. The shrimp Poboy had the option between tartar sauce, mayo, and spicy mayo. We opted for the tartar sauce. It came with a bed of seasoned fries. The shrimp was extra crispy and it had generous amounts of sauce. This definitely will fill me up if I had this for weekday lunch! The box came with copious amounts of sausage and shrimp. It also had a lot of spice, which reminds me of gumbo or jambalaya. It was very well seasoned, and it also felt like huge portions. If you're coming in for an off-season lunch, I would recommend this place!

    My coworker posted a picture of her food and it looked amazing. Today, I decided to give them a try. I opted for the shrimp and crawfish fried rice plate. The size is generous for the price...I added an egg. The service was great as I had ordered online for pickup. My item was ready when I arrived. I was expecting the egg added to be chopped up in the fried rice. I was also surprised by the fried rice as it was more of a yellow color. I will say they do give you ample shrimp and crawfish. However, I did not care for the flavor of everything together. I ended up throwing the egg away. The rice was a little better after that. Unfortunately, I did not like the dish in the end. It lacked flavor and the rice color, egg kinda threw me off.

    Most folks wouldn't consider South Houston a food destination, but I think it's places like Lone Star Seafood that make the journey worth it. There are an absurd number of Viet-Cajun spots in the city, but so many of them lack the homey vibe, excellent service, and high quality food at affordable prices They're located along a strip mall next to Ben Thanh Supermarket (#1) and a handful of local businesses but it's incredibly easy to miss. Parking is going to be plentiful and it's rarely ever busy in here. I realized they open just before the pandemic hit, so I imagine the last few years hasn't been easy. Food wise, it's a non-stop collection of bangers with enough hits that will satisfy most folks. The box fried rice is a combination fried rice with shrimp, boudin, and andouille sausage and is generously topped with the meats. The fried boudin links ($4.75) are a tasty starter, as are the boudin egg rolls ($5.49), turkey necks ($5.49), hush puppies ($2.49), fried okra ($4), and somewhat salty cup of gumbo ($8). At around $10.99/Ib, the crawfish is the real star of the show. They're plump, juicy, and fully drenched in their sauces. I would highly recommend adding corn, potatoes, eggs, and sausage to the boil for added variety.I also think their crab legs, shrimp, catfish, and other seafood fixins are definitely worth a look. The only thing I'm not particularly crazy about is their wings or empanadas, but I just haven't tried them all. Don't sleep on the fish fillets and etouffees, the latter has a nice kick to it. The service is one of my favorite things about Lone Star. They're friendly, quick, and efficient. The best way to feast here to bring a group of hungry dining companions, which is what I'm planning on doing when I come back again, hopefully sooner than later. ___________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/ben-thanh-food-market-houston

    Absolutely great on all levels - have only been a couple times because I'm never really in this area, but I'll be sure to stop by again!

    Interior

    I really enjoyed this spot! It's tucked away right near a Vietnamese Grocery store, Goodwill, and other stores so there's plenty of parking. I was craving crawfish so I ordered a pound ($10.99) with potatoes, corn, and sausage with the K-sauce. The total came out to be around $16.50. If I recall correctly, they're doing a special where 2 lbs is 18.99 and 3 or 4 pounds for a better deal- you might want to call or ask them to double check. They give you extra butter and seasoning on the side which is nice. The crawfish were all pretty big and they were super juicy! If you get the seafood boil, I highly recommend the K-sauce. It's basically the Star Sauce (their house seasoning) but with citrus which paired really nicely with the seafood boil. The potatoes, corn, and sausage were all delicious too! Overall, the customer service was good, the interior was clean, and the food was comforting. I can't wait to come back and try other items on their menu. If you're craving crawfish or a seafood boil in the Pasadena area, this is the place to go!

Feels good when an establishment takes pride in their customer's feedback and puts a plan into action. Honestly, part of me was hoping that last time was just a fluke or an off day. This time around, everything from the service to the food was great. We had a 12:30 Sunday reservation for two and opted to sit inside this time. We ordered the cast-iron cornbread, chargrilled oysters, and a cup of gumbo each to start. For entrées, I had the Gulf Fish, while my husband went with the crawfish Florentine. Everything came out beautifully timed, almost like a perfectly paced three-course meal, which obviously made the whole experience feel elevated and relaxed. Our waiter was knowledgeable, attentive, and on top of everything without being overbearing. I also tried the prickly pear aid (non-alcoholic), and it was super refreshing, definitely worth ordering if you like a little tartness to cleanse your palate. Overall, this visit felt like a completely different experience than last time. It delivered the elevated experience a place like Eunice promises and what I was used to originally.

Unfortunately, the overall dining experience was disappointing due to both the service and the food quality. Our server was very slow throughout the evening. After ordering cocktails, it took approximately 20 minutes for them to arrive. We then ordered our meals... I had the burger and fries, while my girlfriend ordered the shrimp and grits. Both dishes were noticeably over salted. After finishing our meals, we waited an additional 15-20 minutes just to receive a dessert menu. Eventually, we decided not to wait any longer and went to Dessert Gallery down the street instead. While the atmosphere and appearance of the restaurant were excellent, the slow service and food issues negatively impacted the experience. Based on this visit, I would likely not return.

    *this review is only for crawfish, not their regular menu (which is amazing) *…read more We went here during crawfish season because they've been advertising their $8/lb crawfish, and we trusted that it would be great given the quality of their regular menu. We went on a Saturday for lunch. Hopefully this was just a one-off, but if you're looking for good Cajun boiled crawfish, this is not it. We started off with 6 lbs (group of 4) of their regular crawfish. First off, they put the Cajun seasoning on outside/shell (!!), which is a cardinal sin for Cajuns. They also minimally seasoned the boil, so the meat was lacking salt and flavor. We ordered 3 more lbs with the "wet sauce" (garlic butter), thinking the lack of flavor may be attributed to this being the first-ish batch of the day. Nope, the second batch was even less seasoned than the first. The sauce was good, but it didn't make up for the unseasoned meat. The crawfish were a good size, at least... Come on guys, I expect more from a Gulf Coast seafood restaurant!

Inside it's a nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it. I ordered a house salad for $9 to start and the Pasta Rosa entree for another $28. The salad arrived first with a generous amount of romaine lettuce with diced tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots and chopped eggs on top. With my chosen ranch dressing it was a good tasting salad. The Pasta Rosa dish had sliced Parmesan strips on top of penne with shrimp, crawfish and sausage for the protein with mushrooms and a tomato cream sauce. This meal initially tricked me. My first impression was that while there was plenty of protein the taste of the tomato cream sauce was lacking some flavor. I expected more. However as I kept eating and getting beyond the top layer of the food the flavor increased significantly. I think that the proteins caused the sauce in the lower half of the dish to create more punch. This dish got better and better and I changed my mind. It turned out to be a very good tasting and filling meal. Finally the table service was very good too. P.S. I also tried part of another appetizer which was the bar b q shrimp for $16.
