If you're just looking for a big, tasty, no frills burger, this is a good spot. Super simple menu with a full bar serving creative cocktails. Burgers are massive and the onion rings are some of the best I've had. It's a bit spendy for a burger spot but totally worth it I think.

Best green chile cheeseburger I’ve had outside of New Mexico! And definitely the best burger I’ve had in Portland. Will be coming back for sure!

Solid cheeseburger and great fries. The burger had a lot of flavor and good char. The fries were crispy and salted perfectly.

My wife and I recently visited LoneStar Burger in Portland after hearing numerous positive recommendations. Unfortunately, our experience was deeply disappointing and raised serious concerns about professionalism, hygiene, and customer safety.

Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, the individual working the front counter was visibly irritated from the beginning. When we politely asked for the aioli on the side, he responded with a condescending lecture, stating, “Most people ask for the sauce on the side but just waste it,” rather than simply honoring a reasonable request.

More troubling, however, was what followed. We watched as this same employee inserted his finger into a glass of ice—apparently to remove something—then filled the glass with soda and handed it directly to my wife. No explanation was offered, and no new glass was provided. This would be unacceptable under any circumstance, but it was especially alarming given that my wife is pregnant.

The situation deteriorated further when he brought our food to the table. A foreign object was clearly visible on one of the plates. Instead of addressing it properly, he remarked, “You didn’t see this,” and used his finger to smear the object across the plate and onto the floor.

This conduct reflects a complete disregard for hygiene, food safety, and basic respect for customers. We left feeling unsettled and appalled. Based on this experience, we cannot in good conscience recommend LoneStar Burger and will certainly not be returning.

I love this place Aves Rosie is the best bartender ever! My new spot, onion rings are amazing and the burgers are better! 7oz High life bottles for 2$ and the country western music makes this place!

I really enjoyed the green Chile bacon burger. My wife said that the gluten free bun was good also.

Dry, unpleasant burgers, soggy fries and onion rings. No need to bother.

It's okay. Said it comes with shaved red onions but really came with diced yellow or white onion. Also said it came with tomato aioli but mine came with a regular aioli, which sucked because there is no tomato on the burger. Don't think I'd order again.

The burger was great, meat was nice cooked perfectly. Service was very slow and the fries sucked.
