| - I'll cut right to the tender, juicy heart of Longhorn...its a great chain steakhouse, and as far as I am concerned, it puts Outback to shame. Their STEAK and SERVICE are just flat-out better in my mind than Outback. I am not an Outback hater or anything, its just than when I tell people about Longhorn, the response I usually get is, "Why don't you just go to Outback??" Well here's what keep's me coming back to Longhorn instead...
*Steaks are always juicy, tender and cooked to perfection. I've never had a bad or less than satisfactory steak at Longhorn. I usually order the 7oz. Flo's Filet. Don't worry, 7oz. of quality steak is more than what you think, and is more than enough for most people (see pics).
*I love the Crab and Lobster dip (see pics). I order this almost every time I go here. I don't know if the crab and lobster are imitation or not, and to be honest, I really don't care. All I know, is that it is a stellar appetizer and puts the overrated Blooming onion to shame as far as appetizers go.
*I love the mash-potatoes. I just wish they would cut back on the butter a little bit. I mean we all love butter, but no one's trying to sacrifice their life for it. I recommend asking for lite butter on the mash-potatoes if you choose to order them as a side to go with your entree.
*I love the brown bread that they serve before the meal. It's good, but it's better when its warm and fresh, and I've had some non-fresh bread before. I can't say that the bread is consistently better than Outback's.
*The service is always top-notch. Everyone from the hostess, to the manger to the servers are extremely friendly and polite. Drinks are always promptly refilled and orders are always correct.
*They do serve a few select beers on draft such as Bud Light and Blue Moon, but beware, they aren't cheap and can turn a reasonably priced dinner into an expensive one very quickly. In recent visits, I have tried to stay away from the alcoholic beverages while there.
There's nothing NOT to like about Longhorn. Reasonable prices, great food, and awesome service...what else do you need?
