   Quality of food was amazing, portions were great, “Table Guacamole “ was the best my guests had ever eaten. Thanks for a fantastic experience.

   It was a great night. Drinks were delicious, food was good, surprisingly a bit less spicy compared to the old recipes, but still delicious nonetheless. Ambiance was fun, bright, energized and the staff were all lovely, attentive, full of delicious suggestions, and all truly looked to enjoy their love. Management popping by and checking on tables was very nice to see as well.

   Food was good but the music was so loud we couldn’t even hear each other talk across the table. I left with a headache.

   Popular for a reason! Food is great, prices are reasonable, and the staff are amazing - it’s a little noisy so not really a “ quiet dinner” sort of place but it is a fun place to go on a Friday night

   The food here is honestly amazing. The music can be a little loud to have a conversation but it's definitely a lively atmosphere.

   Our group enjoyed the new menu and ambiance. I especially liked my passionfruit mojito with boba. The server had accidentally brought a passionfruit margarita but was quick to correct. Prices were on the higher side for food portions I thought. Was worth the try but I personally love the OG locations for their free chips.

    We have been long time Lone Star patrons, and were not aware of the change to the 'Cantina' in the Whitby location. The new menu is a big step backwards in our opinion, smaller portions and higher prices. The 'modern' decore was like a noisy cafeteria, especially in the large corner booth where it was difficult to have a decent conversation without having to raise our voices. Four of our party of 6 shared fajitas and while the flavour was very good, the portions were much smaller than the original Lone Star we enjoyed in Pickering and the original Whitby location. The $42 'Steak Frites' strip loin was quite small with a handful of shoestring fries. I had the ribs which were very tasty, but for $34 I was expecting more than a half rack. The cole slaw that came with it was yucky. We spoke with the very nice manager who appreciated our feedback. Our server was outstanding and having worked there for 17 years did her best to help us figure out the new menu.
