I've had plenty of drinks at Waddell's Longhorn Corral over the last several years. But I've never been in the area at the right time to enjoy lunch. Until today. After celebrating my girlfriends birthday with a trip to a nearby shooting range, she chose the Longhorn (as we refer to it) for lunch.
I'm not sure I've ever eaten anything here before. Neither had I been given any expectations from others who have dined at the Longhorn. Regardless, when I saw the menu, I was shocked by the prices in general. There isn't a burger to be had for less than $11. I crossed my fingers and hoped for the best.
The portions are generous. That's a plus. My lunch included two sides. The onion rings were good, but not the best. I really enjoyed the baked beans though! And my burger was pretty good and I barely ate it all. There are other options on the burger list that justify the prices. Bison burgers are just one example.
The atmosphere was familiar, so it didn't strike me as relevant to this review. It's typical western-themed Arizona rustic with a hint of NASCAR. So if that's not your thing, it may not be worth your drive.
The reason I gave four stars was primarily on the strength of Becky's amazing service. She didn't panic when our party of ten sat down, got our drinks quickly, and made sure everything came out in a timely fashion. No one complained about needing anything during our meal, and we all had a great time. Thanks Longhorn!
