Good breakfast and super waitstaff. Starlite is typical of most hometown cafes. Just good home cooking. The atmosphere is typical of the genre also.

Food and service was great but it was very warm in the cafe. The temperature was very hot out and they were doing the best they

If you're expecting something fancy, you might be disappointed. But if you're expecting good, old-fashioned country food served with a smile, this place is perfection! The quintessential small town diner. Breakfast is especially good!

I was driving back to Abilene from Sugar Land (West of Houston) and encountered a road closing on HWY 36. It completely threw my lunch plans off. Once I finally got back on 36 it was getting late for lunch. I searched yelp for food in Rising Star and it brought up the Starlight Cafe. At this point my belly button was starting to shake hands with my backbone and I needed to eat. I was annoyed because I couldn't find hours for the diner, so I thought maybe it's open all day? Once I walked in a very kind lady asked what I wanted. I placed an order for a double meat hamburger and some cheese sticks along with an Unsweet tea. When I was entering I had noticed a sign that said daily lunch special I forget the beginning time but the ending time was 2:00. I told her I noticed the sign and asked what time they closed (there are no business hours posted on the door). She told me 2:00. Y'all I had walked in at 1:38 and I told her that I was so sorry and I wouldn't have come in had I known that. Let me tell you this young lady was the epitome of Texas Southern Hospitality! She told me it was no problem at all! She asked me if I wanted it to go or dine in and I told her I'm not going to keep you just so I can eat so make it to go. She told me I have a lot to do in the back so if you want to eat here you are more than welcome. Trust me with the time I'd spent in that little fleet car sitting down in a spacious diner was music to my ears. Another young lady, I'm thinking the cook, asked me if I wanted my cheese sticks right away or if wanted them to come out with my burger. I said right away please. She brought them out a few minutes later and asked if I'd like something to dip them in. I asked for ranch and she brought it out and told me just ask if you need more. These cheese sticks were pretty good size and worth the money. Then she brought out my hamburger. I don't know if these were 1/2 pound patties or what, but they were generously sized. My only complaint is I prefer my burgers with the meat on the bottom and the veggies on the top. With that said after I shifted things around I was extremely happy with my order. The next time I stop in there I have no doubt they will fix it to my liking per request. My biggest regret is I didn't have more cash on hand to tip them what they deserved in addition to the 20% that my company credit card allows. Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful, service and great food!

Food was ok, service was good, our waitress was very attentive. Would be a great little restaurant if it was cleaner. Extremely simple food, canned corn and green beans.

Asked what they have for dessert. Waiter said they dont have anything only maybe a brownies. No thanks. Only to see her bring out two 2.5inch high chocolate cakes and served them to other table. Then now I asked for cake but waiter claimed those two were last of them. Went to restroom, wow... it's FILTHY.

This is the only place in town to eat. It’s a small cafe in town. We went at lunch time and it was fairly busy. I expected a lengthy wait but was surprised by the fast service by the only waitress working. I had the small cheeseburger and fries. Cheeseburger was good but the fries seemed a little uncooked but I don’t eat many anyway. Cheeseburger was good. I would recommend.
