I have enjoyed Lonestar for many years. The food, service, and atmosphere are always outstanding! It’s just like a trip back to the farm for a harvest time dinner. When it burned last Christmas I was heartbroken. The entire community turned out and supported the Henderson’s. I was so proud of them. Now after almost a year of hard work they have reopened with service from a brand new food truck on the property. I’m glad to say that they must have saved the recipe book because the food remains the same delicious fare it always was. The new covered picnic area is a pleasant spot to enjoy a country meal. Go by and support them as they rebuild. You won’t regret it and many return visits are sure to follow.

The food is literally southern comfort.

Best around and family still talking pride in the cooking

Always usually great food but today's BBQ had WAY too much fat. I've been to other places that chop up the fat in their BBQ but it's a big turnoff. I've never had it this way at Lone Star and hope this isn't the way they're going to continue preparing it. We'll have to move our group meetings elsewhere if so.

Step back 150 years into a post office and general store repurposed into a pleasant dining experience. The all-you-can-eat food is very good.Well worth a visit.

First time at Lone Star and will definitely be back. Went on Friday for all you can eat ribs, which were great. Their fried Chicken was amazing as well. A buffet dinner that you can cycle through as many times as you wish.Highly recommend!

Staying in Santee S.C. for the week.Looking for a good place to eat.The Resort recommended this BBQ restaurant.So we decided to give it a try.It definitely is not a disappointment.This was the best BBQ we have had.It's a buffet so you get to choose what you want to eat.You can't go wrong with your choice.Pulled pork. Fried chicken. Hush puppies.Cold slaw. Potato salad.Many more choices.You definitely will not leave there hungry.The price is so reasonable for so many options to choose from.You can go back for more.I would definitely recommend anyone staying in Santee or just passing by on I95 to check it out.You can't go wrong.Make sure you check out all the rest of the rooms attached to the restaurant.It will definitely bring back a lot of old memories.Things you probably haven't seen since you were a little kid.

Parking: Plenty of parking around the restaurant.
