Lonestar Bar B Que and Soul Food

The Good: If you’re coming for the sides, you’re in luck. The cornbread, mac and cheese, baked potato, and banana pudding were all hits—genuinely tasty and well-made. The owner is also incredibly welcoming and friendly, which makes for a nice initial vibe. ​The Bad: The service from the rest of the staff felt a bit off—they seemed awkward and nervous, which made for a clunky experience. ​The Dealbreaker: The meats were a major letdown. Both the ribs and brisket had an intense, almost artificial smokey flavor. The brisket, in particular, was so fatty that I ended up discarding about half of it. To be honest, you could get similar "smokey" quality from the grocery store deli (like IGA) for a fraction of the cost. ​Bottom Line: Great sides and a nice owner, but the BBQ itself missed the mark.

Brisket tacos are 🔥The smokiness of the bbq blew me away! The baked beans, the potato salad, even the corn bread was all very very good. The bbq sauce was the chef’s kiss. The best barbecue in Evansville. take out of a 1/2 slab of ribs took 35 minutes. Ribs should be ready to go imo.

Came here for lunch. Brisket and pulled pork is delicious. Corn bread fluffy and sweet. I tried the baked beans and potato salad, both very tasty.

Absolute delight! The meat and portions were amazing and the greens were outstanding. The chef came out and was so hospitable and checked on us. It's not too loud, so we could actually hear each other too!

Brisket and ribs were perfection, all of our sides were delicious. And the cornbread was the best I’ve ever had! Highly recommend!
