3.    EARNINGS PER SHARE

      Basic  earnings  per share  amounts  are  computed  based on the  weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the periods. For purposes of diluted
computations,  average shares  outstanding have been adjusted to reflect (1) the
number of  shares  that  would be issued  from the  exercise  of stock  options,
reduced  by the  number of shares  which  could  have  been  purchased  from the
proceeds  at the average  market  price of the  Company's  stock or price of the
Company's stock on the exercise date if options were exercised during the period
presented  and (2) the  number  of shares  that may be  issuable  to effect  the
settlement  of  certain  deferred  compensation   liabilities  pursuant  to  the
Company's Stock Option Deferred Compensation Plan. The effect of shares issuable
to settle the  deferred  compensation  liabilities  are  included for the twelve
weeks ended June 15, 2004 and excluded in all other  periods  presented as their
effect would have been antidilutive.

4.    TERM REVOLVER

      The  Company has a credit  facility  pursuant  to an  unsecured  revolving
credit agreement with a group of banks led by SunTrust Bank. The credit facility
allows the Company to borrow up to $50,000. The commitment  terminates in August
2004; however, it is subject to acceleration in the event of a change of control
of the Company as that term is defined in the credit  agreement.  At the time of
each borrowing,  the Company may elect to pay interest at either SunTrust Bank's
published  prime rate or a rate  determined  by reference to the Adjusted  LIBOR
rate.  The  Company is  required  to  achieve  certain  financial  ratios and to
maintain  certain  net worth  amounts as defined  in the credit  agreement.  The
Company is required to pay on a quarterly basis a facility fee equal to .25% per
annum on the daily unused amount of the credit facility. At June 15, 2004 and at
December 30, 2003, there were no borrowings  outstanding  pursuant to the credit
facility.

      The Company also has entered into a $5,000  revolving  term loan agreement
with a bank,  under which no borrowings  were  outstanding  at June 15, 2004 and
December 30, 2003. The loan commitment matures in August 2004. The interest rate
is at .50% below the daily prime rate as published  in the Wall Street  Journal.
In  addition,  the  Company  pays a facility  fee of .25% per annum on the daily
unused portion of the credit facility.

      Both of the  Company's  credit  facilities  terminate in August 2004.  The
Company is currently  negotiating its credit facility  arrangements and believes
it will be able to  adequately  provide for its credit  facility  needs when the
present facilities expire.

5.    COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS

      The Board of  Directors  has from time to time  authorized  the Company to
purchase shares of the Company's common stock in the open market or in privately
negotiated  transactions.  The Company  made no  purchases  of its common  stock
during the twenty-four  weeks ended June 15, 2004. The Company purchased 891,000
shares of its common stock during the twenty-four weeks ended June 17, 2003. The
Company is accounting for the purchases using the constructive retirement method
of  accounting  wherein the  aggregate  par value of the stock is charged to the
common stock account and the excess of cost over par value is charged to paid-in
capital.

      In  September   2002,  the  Company   adopted  a  Stock  Option   Deferred
Compensation  Plan (the "Plan"),  which allows  certain key  executives to defer
compensation  arising  from the  exercise  of stock  options  granted  under the
Company's  1992  Incentive  and  Nonqualified  Stock  Option  Plans.  During the
twenty-four  weeks ended June 17, 2003, the Company issued 300,000 shares of its
common  stock to effect the  exercise  of such stock  options  in  exchange  for
122,855  shares of the  Company's  common stock as payment for such shares.  The
122,855  shares  received  by the Company  were  cancelled.  The Company  issued
122,855  shares to the  optionee  and  pursuant  to the  terms of the Plan,  the
Company  issued 177,145 shares to a Rabbi trust (the "Trust") with Intrust Bank,
NA serving as the  trustee.  The Trust  holds the shares for the  benefit of the
participating   employees   (Participants).   Under   the  terms  of  the  Plan,

                                      -7-





Participants may elect to change the Plan's  investments from time to time which
may result in the sale of the  shares.  Since the  shares  held by the Trust are
held pursuant to a deferred  compensation  arrangement whereby amounts earned by
an employee  are  invested in the stock of the employer and placed in the Trust,
the Company  accounts for the  arrangement  as required by Emerging  Issues Task
Force   ("EITF")   consensus  on  Issue  No.  97-14,   ACCOUNTING  FOR  DEFERRED
COMPENSATION  ARRANGEMENTS  WHERE  AMOUNTS  EARNED ARE HELD IN A RABBI TRUST AND
INVESTED  ("EITF  No.  97-14").  Accordingly,  shares  issued to the Trust  were
recorded at fair market value at the date issued by the Company in the amount of
$3,663,  which is reflected in the accompanying  Condensed  Consolidated Balance
Sheets as Common Stock Held By Trust. The  corresponding  amount was credited to
deferred  compensation  obligations.  Each period, the shares owned by the Trust
are  valued at the  closing  market  price,  with  corresponding  changes in the
underlying shares reflected as adjustments to compensation  expense and deferred
compensation obligations. At June 15, 2004, the Trust held 177,145 shares of the
Company's common stock.  Included in non-cash stock compensation expense for the
twelve  weeks  ended June 15,  2004 and June 17,  2003 was a (credit)  charge of
$(205) and $760, respectively,  relating to the changes in market price for such
shares.  The charges for the twenty-four  weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 17,
2003 were $554 and $409, respectively.

6.    ACQUISITION OF TEXAS LAND AND CATTLE STEAK HOUSE

      On January 28, 2004,  the  Company's  Joint Plan of  Reorganization  ("the
Plan") to purchase  TX.C.C.,  Inc. and  affiliated  entities,  TXCC-Preston  and
TXLC-Albuquerque,  (collectively,  "TXCC") was  confirmed  by the United  States
Bankruptcy  Court for the  District of Texas,  Dallas  Division  and the Company
acquired  100% of  TXCC  on that  date.  The  Company's  consolidated  financial
statements  include  TXCC's  results of operations  from January 28, 2004.  TXCC
presently  operates 20 Texas Land & Cattle Steak  House(R)  restaurants  located
primarily  in Texas.  The  acquisition  of TXCC allows the Company to expand its
steakhouse  concepts,  provides strategic growth opportunities and significantly
increases  its  presence  in  the  Texas  market.  Pursuant  to  the  Plan,  the
pre-petition creditors at their option were  entitled to receive  either cash or
common  stock of Lone Star  Steakhouse  & Saloon,  Inc. in  settlement  of their
claims.  The cash  portion  of the  acquisition  was funded  from the  Company's
existing cash balances.

      The  preliminary  aggregate  purchase  price was $23,870,  including  cash
acquired of $2,145.  The Company's  purchase price consisted of $14,650 in cash,
117,466 shares of the Company's  common stock valued at $2,633,  and liabilities
assumed of $6,587.

      The following table  summarizes the  preliminary  estimated fair values of
the assets  acquired and  liabilities  assumed at the date of  acquisition.  The
Company is in the  process of  determining  the final  settlement  amounts  with
certain  pre-petition  creditors;  thus  additional  adjustments to the purchase
price  allocation,   including  estimated  assumed  liabilities,  may  still  be
required.

presented for the periods as such amounts are not significant.

7.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

      On June 29, 2004, the Board of Directors declared the Company's  quarterly
cash dividend of $.175 per share payable July 23, 2004 to stockholders of record
on July 9, 2004.

8.    DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

      The Company  accounts for its closed  restaurants  in accordance  with the
Provisions  of SFAS No.  144,  ACCOUNTING  FOR THE  IMPAIRMENT  OR  DISPOSAL  OF
LONG-LIVED ASSETS.  Therefore, when a restaurant is closed and the restaurant is
either held for sale or abandoned,  the  restaurant's  operations are eliminated
from ongoing operations. Accordingly, the operations of such restaurants, net of
applicable  income taxes,  are presented as  discontinued  operations  and prior
period  consolidated  financial  statements  are  reclassified.  The table below
reflects as discontinued  operations the applicable  operations of the Company's
Australian business and certain other domestic restaurants closed which meet the
criteria for such presentation.

9.    INCOME TAX

     The  effective  income tax rate from  continuing  operations  was 32.7% and
30.3% for the twelve weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 17, 2003,  respectively,
and 32.8% and 31.7% for the  twenty-four  weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 17,
2003, respectively. The factors which cause the effective tax rates to vary from
the federal statutory rate of 35% include state income taxes, the impact of FICA
Tip and other credits,  certain  non-deductible  expenses, and the tax effect of
incentive  stock  options.  There is  generally  no tax  impact  to the  Company
associated with incentive stock options and the related amortization  associated
with such  options in the income  statement.  However,  tax  benefits  may arise
related to the incentive  stock options at the time the options are exercised to
the extent that the exercise is followed by a  disqualifying  disposition of the
shares by the optionee. The 2003 effective tax rates reflect a greater amount of
tax benefits arising from disqualifying  dispositions of incentive stock options
as compared to 2004.

GENERAL

     The following  discussion and analysis  should be read in conjunction  with
the  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  including the notes thereto
included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

     The Company  opened one  restaurant  during the twelve weeks ended June 15,
2004,  and none during the twelve weeks ended June 17, 2003.  The Company opened
two  restaurants  during the  twenty-four  weeks ended June 15,  2004,  and none
during the twenty-four weeks ended June 17, 2003.

     There were 251  operating  domestic  Lone Star  restaurants  as of June 15,
2004.  In  addition,   a  licensee  operates  three  Lone  Star  restaurants  in
California.

     The  Company  currently  operates  five Del  Frisco's  Double  Eagle  ("Del

                      LONE STAR STEAKHOUSE & SALOON, INC.

 TWELVE WEEKS ENDED JUNE 15, 2004 COMPARED TO TWELVE WEEKS ENDED JUNE 17, 2003
             (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

      Net sales  increased  $17,586 or 12.7% to  $155,529  for the twelve  weeks
ended June 15,  2004,  compared to $137,943  for the twelve weeks ended June 17,
2003.

      Sales for the twelve  weeks  ended  June 15,  2004  include  approximately
$13,880  attributable  to the  acquisition of TXCC.  The Company's  blended same
store  sales  representing  net  sales,  by  store,  for all the  Company  owned
restaurant concepts opened for more than 18 months in the current and comparable
prior year period increased 2.5%. The Company's average check increased 1.6% and
guest counts increased 1.5%. In addition, sales comparisons for the twelve weeks
ended June 15, 2004 were adversely  affected by approximately  $1,800 due to the
inclusion of Father's Day sales in the quarter for 2003.  In 2004,  Father's Day
falls in the Company's fiscal third quarter.

      Costs of sales, primarily food and beverages, increased as a percentage of
net sales to 37.2% from 34.9% due primarily to increased costs of beef and dairy
products and to a lesser extent chicken.

      Restaurant  operating  expenses  for the twelve  weeks ended June 15, 2004
increased  $10,289 to $74,067  compared  to $63,769 in the prior year period and
increased  as a  percentage  of net  sales  to 47.6%  from  46.2%.  Labor  costs
increased .4% primarily as a result of increased costs for worker's compensation
and employee  medical  expenses.  Advertising  costs were up  approximately  .4%
reflecting  increased  costs for  printing.  Occupancy  costs  were up .6%,  due
primarily to the impact of higher rent  expenses  applicable to the TXCC stores.
In addition,  restaurant  operating expenses for the twelve weeks ended June 15,
2004 include  approximately $220 of pre-opening costs as compared to none in the
prior year period.

      Depreciation  and  amortization  decreased  $81 for the twelve weeks ended
June 15, 2004 compared with the prior period.  The decrease is  attributable  to
the  continued  reduction in  depreciation  for certain  assets that have become
fully depreciated for the Company's historical concepts, which are mostly offset
by depreciation related to the TXCC acquisition.

      General and  administrative  expenses  decreased $300 for the twelve weeks
ended  June  15,  2004   compared  to  the  prior  year   period.   General  and
administrative  expenses reflect an increase of approximately $600 for increases
related to the TXCC acquisition.  The increase was more than offset by decreases
for travel related expenses and professional fees.

      Non-cash  stock  compensation  expense for the twelve weeks ended June 15,
2004 was a  credit  of $114  compared  to a charge  of $733 for the  prior  year
period.  The change is primarily  attributable to a credit of $205 compared to a
charge of $409 in the prior year period  relating to the  accounting for certain
shares  of the  Company's  common  stock  held by a Rabbi  Trust  pursuant  to a
deferred  compensation  arrangement  (See  Note  5 to  the  Notes  to  Condensed
Consolidated  Financial  Statements).  In addition,  the change also  reflects a
decrease in the amortization of other stock based  compensation in 2004 compared
to 2003.

      Other income  (expense),  net for the twelve weeks ended June 15, 2004 was
$(421)  compared  to $282 for the  prior  year.  The  expense  reflects  foreign
exchange  losses in 2004  related to  Australian  funds  which were  repatriated
during the period. The losses were partially offset by an increase in gains from
sale of assets in 2004 as compared to 2003.

      The  effective  income tax rate was 32.7% and 30.3% for the  twelve  weeks
ended June 15, 2004 and June 17, 2003, respectively. The factors which cause the
effective tax rates to vary from the federal statutory rate of 35% include state
income taxes, the impact of FICA Tip and other credits,  certain  non-deductible
expenses,  and the tax effect of incentive stock options.  There is generally no
tax impact to the  Company  associated  with  incentive  stock  options  and the
related  amortization  associated  with such  options in the  income  statement.
However,  tax benefits may arise at the time the incentive options are exercised
to the extent that the exercise is followed by a  disqualifying  disposition  of
the shares by the  optionee.  The 2003 period  reflects a greater  amount of tax
benefits associated with incentive stock options exercised during the period.

      Discontinued  operations  reflect the  operations  of  restaurants  closed
subsequent  to fiscal 2002 which are  required  to be  reported as  discontinued
operations  pursuant  to SFAS No.  144,  (see Note 8 to the  Notes to  Condensed
Consolidated Statements).

          TWENTY-FOUR WEEKS ENDED JUNE 15, 2004 COMPARED TO TWENTY-FOUR
                            WEEKS ENDED JUNE 17, 2003
             (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

      Net sales increased $38,811 or 14.0% to $316,126 for the twenty-four weeks
ended June 15, 2004,  compared to $277,315 for the twenty-four  weeks ended June
17,  2003.  Sales  for  the  twenty-four  weeks  ended  June  15,  2004  include
approximately  $23,737  attributable  to the  acquisition  of TXCC.  The Company
experienced  sales growth in all its  restaurant  concepts as blended same store
sales  representing  net sales, by store,  for all the Company owned  restaurant
concepts,  opened for more than 18 months in the  current and  comparable  prior
year period increased 5.4%. The Company's average check increased 2.3% and guest
counts increased 3.5%. In addition,  sales for the twenty-four  weeks ended June
15, 2004 were adversely affected by approximately $1,800 due to the inclusion of
Father's Day sales in the second quarter in 2003. In 2004, Father's Day falls in
the Company's fiscal third quarter.

      Costs of sales, primarily food and beverages, increased as a percentage of
net sales to 36.0% from 34.5% due primarily to increased costs of beef and dairy
products and to a lesser extent produce and chicken.

      Restaurant  operating  expenses for the  twenty-four  weeks ended June 15,
2004 increased $19,606 to $146,890 compared to $127,284 in the prior year period
and  increased  as a  percentage  of net sales to 46.5% from 45.9%.  Labor costs
increased  .1  %  primarily  as  a  result  of  increased   costs  for  worker's
compensation  and  employee  medical   expenses.   Advertising   costs  were  up
approximately  .3%  reflecting  increased  costs  for  printing.   Building  and
maintenance  costs  decreased .3% while utility costs  increased .1%.  Occupancy
costs  were  up .4%,  due  primarily  to the  impact  of  higher  rent  expenses
applicable to the TXCC stores. In addition,  restaurant  operating  expenses for
the  twenty-four  weeks  ended  June  15,  2004  include  approximately  $507 of
pre-opening costs compared to none in the prior year period.

      Depreciation  and  amortization  decreased $515 for the twenty-four  weeks
ended June 15, 2004 compared with the prior period. The decrease is attributable
primarily to a reduction  in  depreciation  for certain  assets that have become
fully depreciated for the Company's historical concepts which are offset in part
by depreciation related to the TXCC acquisition.

      General and  administrative  expenses  increased $346 for the  twenty-four
weeks ended June 15, 2004 compared to the prior year period.  The primary reason
for the increase is  attributable to the additional  general and  administrative
costs  applicable  to TXCC of  $1,110.  The  increase  was  partially  offset by
decreases in travel related costs and professional fees.

      Non-cash stock  compensation  expense for the twenty-four weeks ended June
15, 2004 decreased $331 compared to the prior year period.  The change  reflects
an  increase  of $145  relating  to the  accounting  for  certain  shares of the
Company's common stock held by a Rabbi Trust pursuant to a deferred compensation
arrangement  (See  Note 5 to  the  Notes  to  Condensed  Consolidated  Financial
Statements).  The  impact of the  increased  charge  was more  than  offset by a
decrease of $476 in the amortization of other stock based  compensation  expense
in 2004 as compared to 2003.

      Other income,  net for the  twenty-four  weeks ended June 15, 2004 was $27
compared to $333 for the prior year.  The  decrease  reflects  foreign  exchange
losses in 2004 related to  Australian  funds which were  repatriated  during the
period.  The losses were partially  offset by an increase in interest income and
gains from sale of assets in 2004 compared to 2003.

      The  effective  income  tax rate was 32.8%  and 31.7% for the  twenty-four
weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 17,  2003,  respectively.  The factors  which
cause the  effective  tax rates to vary from the federal  statutory  rate of 35%
include state income taxes,  the impact of FICA Tip and other  credits,  certain

                                      -13-





non-deductible expenses, and the tax effect of incentive stock options. There is
generally no tax impact to the Company  associated  with incentive stock options
and  the  related  amortization  associated  with  such  options  in the  income
statement. However, tax benefits may arise at the time the incentive options are
exercised  to the  extent  that the  exercise  is  followed  by a  disqualifying
disposition  of the shares by the optionee.  The 2003 period  reflects a greater
amount of tax benefits  associated with incentive stock options exercised during
the period compared to 2004.

      Discontinued  operations  reflect the  operations  of  restaurants  closed
subsequent  to fiscal 2002 which are  required  to be  reported as  discontinued
operations  pursuant  to SFAS No.  144,  (see Note 8 to the  Notes to  Condensed
Consolidated Statements).

IMPACT OF INFLATION

      The  primary  inflationary  factors  affecting  the  Company's  operations
include food and labor costs. A number of the Company's restaurant personnel are
paid at the federal and state established minimum wage levels and,  accordingly,
changes in such wage levels affect the Company's labor costs. However, since the
majority of personnel  are tipped  employees,  minimum wage changes  should have
little effect on overall labor costs.  Historically,  as costs of food and labor
have increased, the Company has been able to offset these increases through menu
price  increases  and  economies of scale;  however,  there may be delays in the
implementation  of such menu price increases or in effecting timely economies of
scale, as well as competitive pressures which may limit the Company's ability to
recover any cost increases in its entirety. Historically,  inflation has not had
a  material  impact on  operating  margins.  During  fiscal  2003,  the  Company
experienced  significant  increases in beef prices and the prices continue to be
above historical levels and have been somewhat volatile. To the extent that beef
prices continue to be  significantly  above  historical  levels,  it will have a
material negative impact on operating margins.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AMOUNTS)

      The following  table  presents a summary of the  Company's  cash flows for
each of the twenty-four weeks ended June 15, 2004 and June 17, 2003:

                                                                  Twenty-four weeks ended
                                                                  -----------------------

      The  decrease  in net  cash  provided  by  operating  activities  for  the
twenty-four  week period ended June 15, 2004 compared to the prior period is due
primarily to an increase in income tax payments  during  fiscal 2004 as compared
to fiscal 2003.

      During  the  twelve  week  period  ended  June  15,  2004,  the  Company's
investment in property and equipment was $9,245  compared to $2,341 for the same
period in 2003.

      As more fully described in Note 6 to the Notes to  Consolidated  Condensed
Financial  Statements,  on January 28,  2004,  the Company  acquired  TXCC which
operates 20 Texas Land & Cattle Steak House(R)  restaurants located primarily in
Texas. The cash portion of the purchase price, net of cash acquired, was $12,505
and was funded from the Company's existing cash balance.  The aggregate purchase
price  may  change  as  the  Company  resolves  certain  claims of  pre-petition
creditors.

      During the  twenty-four  week  period  ended June 15,  2004,  the  Company
received  net  proceeds  of $4,028 from the  issuance  of 468,034  shares of its
common  stock due to the exercise of stock  options  compared to net proceeds of
$5,260 from the issuance of 624,933 shares in the same period in 2003.

      The Company's  Board of Directors has authorized the purchase of shares of
the Company's  common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately
negotiated  transactions.  The most recent  authorization  was December 23, 2003
when the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to 2,122,800 shares of
the Company's common stock. During the twenty-four weeks ended June 15, 2004 the
Company did not purchase any common stock.  During the same period in 2003,  the
Company  purchased  891,000  shares of its common  stock at a cost of $20.71 per
share or an aggregate cost of $18,454.

      The Company has paid  quarterly  cash  dividends on its common stock since
the second  quarter of fiscal 2000. In January 2004,  the Company  increased its
quarterly  cash dividend  from $.165 to $.175 per share  commencing in the first
quarter of fiscal 2004.  During the  twenty-four  weeks ended June 15, 2004, the
Company  paid  dividends  of $7,415 or $.35 per share as  compared  to $6,707 or
$.315 per share in the same period in 2003.
..
      At June 15,  2004,  the Company had $91,460 in cash and cash  equivalents.
The Company has available $55,000 in unsecured revolving credit facilities which
expire  in  August  2004.  At June 15,  2004,  the  Company  had no  outstanding
borrowings.  See  Note  4 to  the  Notes  to  Condensed  Consolidated  Financial
Statements in the Form 10-Q for a further  description  of the Company's  credit
facilities.   The  Company  is  currently   negotiating   its  credit   facility
arrangements  and believes it will be able to adequately  provide for its credit
facility needs when the present credit facilities expire.

      The Company from time to time may utilize derivative financial instruments
in the form of live beef cattle  futures  contracts  to manage  market risks and
reduce its exposure  resulting from fluctuations in the price of meat.  Realized
and  unrealized  changes in the fair values of the  derivative  instruments  are
recognized  in income in the period in which the  change  occurs.  Realized  and
unrealized gains and losses for the period were not significant.  As of June 15,
2004, the Company had no positions in futures contracts.

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

            Disclosure  controls  are  procedures  that  are  designed  with the
            objective of ensuring that  information  required to be disclosed in
            the  Company's  reports under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,
            such as this Form 10-Q is reported in accordance with the Securities
            and  Exchange  Commission's  rules.  Disclosure  controls  are  also
            designed  with the objective of ensuring  that such  information  is
            accumulated  and  communicated  to  management,  including the Chief
            Executive  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer as  appropriate  to
            allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

            As of the end of the period  covered by the Form 10-Q,  the  Company
            carried  out an  evaluation  under  the  supervision  and  with  the
            participation of the Company's  management,  including the Company's
            Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief  Financial  Officer,   of  the
            effectiveness   of  the  design  and   operation  of  the  Company's
            disclosure  controls  and  procedures  pursuant  to  the  Securities
            Exchange  Act Rule  13a-14.  Based upon that  evaluation,  the Chief
            Executive  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer  concluded that the
            Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely
            alerting  them  to  material  information  relating  to the  Company
            (including  its  consolidated  subsidiaries)  required  to be in the
            Company's periodic SEC filings. There were no significant changes in
            the  Company's  internal  controls  or in other  factors  that could
            significantly  affect these controls subsequent to the date of their
            evaluation.

            Certifications  of the Chief  Executive  Officer and Chief Financial
            Officer  regarding,  among  other  items,  disclosure  controls  and
            procedures are included  immediately  after the signature section of
            this Form 10-Q.
