The first time I've been to the steakhouse. I was traveling around the country at the time and went there with a young lady who was traveling with me. She and I both got steaks and some appetizers and such. It was around a hundred dollars for our dinner and such, but we definitely had leftovers for later. The food is amazing and so delicious I can honestly say. The steaks were cooked perfectly pretty much. Very delicious of having some caramelization on the outside of the steaks and still a very tender inner steak of medium well cooked steaks. I had mushrooms on the side with Fry's and some cheese filled mushrooms for my appetizer as well as salad and bread with my steak. The salad was very good as well but not as much of importance as our other parts of the dinner being we were going to the steakhouse to get steaks was more so our main goals. My traveling partner had some wings, potato soup, salad, bread and some macaroni and cheese with her steak and Fry's. Honestly the fresh bread is so very tasteful and helps set the mood for really good stuff. I love when places make bread for us to enjoy of which it helps set a really nice atmosphere in some ways. The drinks were nice to such as some lemonade and some coffee. I really enjoyed the time and so did my traveling partner. We had some nice conversations with the waiter as well as he was interested in our adventures of traveling the country and talking about life. I really recommend this place if you want an enjoyable dinner in a relaxed atmosphere to spend time enjoying life if you can. Great experience how I could at the time for sure.

What a great place! Hard to believe it's been open so many years, but only started coming here in Fall 2024, each time for their lunch specials which are really a good deal. Have had the chicken sandwich with the amazing lobster/shrimp chowder. Highly recommended. Service was great - a couple of times with Maliq and most recently by Kiersten. The steak salad is good as well. Have to try it for dinner!

Went in today expecting to have a great meal with hubby but as soon as we sat down it took a turn for the worst. Started the meal off with two drinks I order an average margarita came out watered down. Our waiter decided he would make side jokes that were very rude. The food was ok my steak was decent but the hubby's steak was not cooked the way he wanted it. Being from Cali I just wanted the best service and food but no such luck

My wife and I wanted to eat at LongHorn Steakhouse for our traditional New Year Eve Dinner! Wasn’t for sure if we could get In before midnight (lol) since they are always busy and don’t offer reservations. We put in our wait time name,was told 1 1/2 hour wait.We left came back 1 hour later, a 1/2 hour before our wait time. Got seated 10 minutes later. We had a great waiter, my wife order ribeye, salad, baked potato and onion soup, I ordered 1/2 slab of ribs,salad,loaded sweet potato and onion soup. The ribs were not as good as I was expecting. I will not be ordering their ribs again. Over all,we had a good New Year Eve dinner.

Me and my wife come here often. It’s an excellent place to eat. They have excellent lamb chops and ribs are excellent also. The fillet is always excellent. Their salads are pretty good too. The atmosphere is always good. It’s not too noisy, except on Sundays whenever everybody talks in their outdoor voice.

Chopped steak was pretty good ... Service was fine ... atmosphere was good ... it is a chain restaurant and delivered consistency.

When to Longhorn at Grand Prairie with my family not too long ago. We love going to Longhorn but this time it was extremely disappointing. We waited over an hour to get a table, which I understand since it’s busy on a weekend. However, once we got the table the waitress was not attentive and was not nice at all. She never came to our table to refill any of the drinks or bring silverware. We asked for a kids drink and she gave us a regular sized soda. We asked for a plastic kids’ cup since it was too big and easy for the kid to spill. She rolled her eyes. Never came back. Anyway, we ordered about 3 steaks medium-well and they were rare. At this point, the restaurant was near empty and the server never came back to ask about the food. We were very hungry waiting for over 2.5 hours for the food just for it to come out cold and not fully cooked to our standards. We did not want to waste the food so we had to eat what we were able to. It is upsetting because this is our favorite restaurant!

We were seated right away (which was nice), but we were seated at a 6 top when there was only 2 of us. So it made us feel a little uncomfortable that we were taking up extra seats that others could have used. The waiter did a great job. He was friendly and got our drinks in a timely manner. The food was pretty decent. My husband ordered the white Cheddar stuffed mushrooms, the outlaw ribeye steak, broccoli, and a salad. I ordered the ribs, broccoli, and Brussel sprouts. The medium rare was more rare than medium and they have coke products.
