    Lone Star Ribhouse - Ordered the prime rib medium rare. Guess I'm glad I didn't order it well done!

    Everything about eating here was bad, from the waitstaff being inattentive (at their best) to the…read moreburgers being dry, over cooked, and essentially flavourless. I can not recommend that you eat anywhere, but here more. Also they had the worst onion rings I've ever had in my life. No part of their food was good enough to be priced as ridiculously high as it was.

    There are very few nice things to say about this place situated in the Belconnen mall…read more Ambience- the music was loud and the songs were covers of mainly classic rock by ne'er do well performers. The covers were of standard songs for those familiar with the classic rock genre and the mutilated version of a Crosby, Stills and Nash song was particularly grating. The decor was standard chain restaurant. And frankly if you live in Australia the charm of an Australian themed restaurant seems over contrived an pathetic and would work better for stupid Yankees and tourists who think that this is what Australia is about. Service- What an absolute joke!!! I told the waitress that two of us would be sharing the prime rib. Only one plate came out. No water. No drink refills. No one asked us how our overpriced steak was (overcooked). And we had to leave the table to pay the bill because the waitress couldn't be bothered to bring it to us. The waitress seemed young, inexperienced and poorly trained. I asked her manager about it when we left and I got a pretty pathetic "Yeah we know the service can improve. Sorry". If they are going to charge outrageous amounts for what is basically a chain steakhouse the service had better be a lot better than this. I've met friendlier staff at McDonalds! The manager was unapologetic for the overcooked steak and the poor service. I doubt they'll stay in business long with their attitude. Food- Let's be honest here... My half blind uncle missing his taste buds due to agent orange exposure in Vietnam could cook a better steak. Who on earth charges $30 for an overcooked steak / "prime rib". It wasn't prime rib. It was an overcooked steak and if you want prime rib I suggest hog's breath and not this place. The coleslaw was a meager portion but had some nice crunch. The house salad was a paltry small handful of mixed leaves overdressed with balsamic dressing (no choice on what the salad comes dressed with). The chips were pretty much standard for a frozen and par cooked product. They weren't fresh cut nor were they anything resembling crispy and they were hidden under the streak and became even soggier. $4 for a sasparilla and almost $4 for a coke and no refill. Even my local club can manage a couple of refills for that price. The BBQ sauce was average at best and the "caramelized" onions had barely seen a couple of minutes on the flat top. They still were rather firm and lacked any color to suggest actual caramelization. There is a nice play area for little ones to enjoy whilst parents eat and that is the only reason this place manages one star. Final verdict- Don't bother. There are less expensive places to sit down and enjoy in Belconnen Mall. If you want a nice prime rib done right go to that other place in Civic. And as far as the service goes my cranky 113 year old Nanna with one eye who is hard of hearing could give better service!
