Longhorn like the other fellow Yelper have mention is a chain restaurant so don't think you will be getting a amazing steak here, but for a chain steakhouse they definitely are better than Outback but still can't compete with others.
I stop in about 2 days ago and order Wild West Shrimp for app and it was good but definitely didn't have the kick and spicyness they mention as I hardly taste much kick in the shrimp, and the full rack ribs along with asparagus as a side and amazingly the asparagus was really good, but i can't say the same for the ribs as I have eat alot of ribs and the best one is the one that you chew right off the bone. Don't get what I'm saying? The ribs was too dry and not enough flavor and even with the extra sauce on the side it didn't bring out much when I pour it on. But overall it's good but I think I will stick with the steak next time I come here.
If your craving steak and don't want to pay too much for it, then Longhorn is the perfect place for you. -

The first thing you have to remember about Lognhorn's is that it is a chain. As such, you can't walk in expecting world class food. With that said, I have found the food here fairly good and at reasonable prices.
We go to this Longhorn on a fairly regular basis because everyone in the family happens to like their ribs. Our most recent trip was last Sunday by request of our son who was celebrating his birthday and wanted the ribs for his B-day dinner.
We arrived about 7:30 pm and had about a 15 wait despite having called ahead for call-ahead seating.
The wife ordered a steak, the kid a steak with a half rack add-on and and I ordered a full rack to share with the wife. We all ordered the asparagus.
One of the reason we all like this place is the asparagus. I'm not sure what they do to it but it is really good. Well worth the extra $1.49 they charge for it . And in the years now that we been ordering it, I can not recall any deviation in the quality.
The steaks were fine , cooked as ordered and tasty. The ribs were quite good as always. The service was OK. Our waitress was as attentive as she could be considering the crowd but it took some time to get her attention for beverage refills.
With that said, they handled the Carvel ice cream cake we brought with us well, helping to conceal it until it was presented. Our son was surprised.
The drinks were a bit on the pricy side ($4 something for a Coors Light Draft)
The one thing I will say for the place is that it's pretty consistent across locations. I travel fairly extensively and never fear popping in for dinner while on a road trip. -

LongHorn pumps out the same Select and Choice steaks that you'd find at Black Angus or Outback.
Forget about prime steaks here. LongHorn caters to the masses, not to the elites. It's a turn and burn type of place so don't expect exceptional service, but do expect your service to be prompt.
And yes, the 18oz. Ribeye is a lot more bone than meat as far as I'm concerned.
Spoiler Alert!!! -Anything with the word "cheese" in it is going to be uber-rich. Not many on the planet can handle that type of taste overload, but if you're a member of that tiny minority, then have at it.
But I warned you... -

I go here fairly frequently as there is a group of us that grabs lunch together. It's your basic chain steakhouse but since we go there on a fairly regular schedule they take pretty good care of us. They know that our table of 6 always ends up leaving a good tip so that certainly helps.
Nothing super special but it's been consistent and I haven't had a bad meal yet. -

Prime rib steak had nothing fire grilled about it at all and was over cooked. We had a side of seasoned fries and it tasted like regular cafeteria fries with no seasoning just way too much salt. The shrimp and lobster dip was too cheesy with orange oil all over the sides. The dish included canned shrimp and two small pieces of lobster. The chips that came with it were drenched in oil and only half of them were actually crispy. The mixed greens salad that came with the entree was basically iceberg lettuce with thousand island as it was very difficult for me to taste the chipotle sauce.
Only good thing I can say is the honey wheat bread and we had a very attentive waiter. For the price you pay here it simply isn't worth it. Overall, don't come here expecting great food. It's more like an Outback Steakhouse with different styling, the food is pretty similar and might be cheaper at Outback. -

After coming to Longhorn i completely forgot Outback even existed. Great tasting food and overall GREAT service from all the staff. They pretty much have the same employees so after going there a couple of times everyone's face seems so familiar to each other. I come to this location at least once a month and nearly experienced every waiter/waitress they had and every single one of them were awesome.

The 18 oz Outlaw Ribeye is one plus pound of excellent steak. Although the bone itself weighed a fair amount, there was a huge piece of juicy grilled meat marbled with tasty fat. Oh yeah.
Normally, I prefer not to give four stars to a chain restaurant. Longhorn's 18 oz Outlaw Ribeye, however, deserves it. Also, the pint of Blue Moon made a perfect pairing. -

This Longhorn in particular will mark the 2nd time I've ever been to Longhorn. I went for the first time a few weeks ago in upstate NY and really enjoyed my meal, so opted to go again in jersey.
I don't normally like steakhouses because I don't typically eat steak. I also had the preconceived notion that steakhouse chains such as Longhorn were interchangeable with some of the less-than-favorable steakhouses that have graced NJ in the past... a certain Sizzler rings a bell.
So I go to Longhorn and get their parmesan crusted chicken... it's excellent. I don't know if there are others out there who get dragged to steakhouses with their meat-loving friends, but if you do, definitely go for this chicken. It's a little cheesier than I expected, but it is one of the most tender pieces of chicken I've ever had.
I do have to say that I didn't care for their shrimp & lobster dip... however, I don't like shrimp or lobster.......... so I guess that's mostly my fault.
btw... what the heck is that a picture of???? -

When a server describes the special house seasoning as "sawdust" you know you're in a bad chain restaurant!
My parents for some reason love this place. Now while I would never criticize their aesthetic tastes (After all they paid for my dinner LOL) this just doesn't measure up.
I had a rib eye steak that was bland and uninspired. Too much fat, not enough meat but it was cooked right so 1/100th of a star LOL.
The service to be fair was quite good. The server took the time to explain to my parents and I different specials and was very friendly overall. It's the only reason this place gets 2 stars.
Atmosphere is faux western. It's like ponderosa but much more tacky.
I wouldn't come here again unless my parents wanted to treat. Even then I probably wouldn't go back. I would treat them instead to a better place :) -

Longhorn is awesome for its price point. Good tender flavorful steaks. Great appetizers. Service does what it has to. Get the fried cheesecake thing for dessert.

Typical chain restaurant. Steaks are mediocre at best, anyone saying otherwise is a rookie. Would have helped if they were cooked properly. (Ordered medium well, came out RARE.) They didn't care either. My mashed potatoes were cold. The menu was advertising Sam Adams Octoberfest, yet they were out of it. 2 stars for value. Group of 3, had steaks and alcohol bill was $85.00. + tip for our friendly server.

it's like you've entered another universe full of stuffed animals and deer antlers hoisted on rusted nails. it's quite disturbing at times, seeing all the "game" that you know has been alive at one point. ( I think they even have a raccoon) but its a hard hitting steak house so I guess dead animals help drive the point home.
it has a texas feel. the food is heavy, hearty, and NOT for the dieter. this is full blown meat without the fancy sides. mmm..red meat. its better quality than charlie browns but not as fancy as ruth's chris (see older reviews).
makes you want to hammer up some dry wall with some hay wedged between your teeth. -

Am I having a deja vu??? I can't believe I've found another place that serves fried cheesecake all in one day!! Where was I before??? This is too crazy!! ...And I thought it's such a new discovery when I ate it this afternoon at Aki!! I've heard of fried oreo and fried twinkies, but I had no idea that fried cheesecake isn't the newest invention, especially If a chain like Long Horn has it! So what's next? Fried jelly? Fried tiramisu? Just fry anything!! Anyways, don't worry, I DID NOT eat another fried cheesecake today. I know my limit, LOL.
What did I have instead? This was my first time to dine at Long Horn, so I didn't know what to expect. I had sirloin steak salad (my version of "healthy meal", LOL) which was a lot better than I expected, the steak was tasty and tender, and came with blue cheese crumbs (I recommend vinegrette dressing!). I think the salad was less than $14, and it fills you up! I wasn't planning to have a dessert, but I gave in to temptation yet again (What's new, haha, I have no will power!! *sigh*) and shared caramel apple gold rush AND key lime pie, which were just "OK" (but definitely key lime pie was better). I got angry at myself that I wasted calories on just average desserts. I should've ordered fried cheesecake instead if I'm gonna compromise my non-existent diet anyway! So I take back what I said..... I don't know my limit! And guess what? I'm going to the Chocolate Show tomorrow!! I'm out of control!!! Aiutoooooooooo!!!! -

I take away one star automatically for this place because its a chain. (otherwise it would have 4).
The atmosphere of longhorn is pretty Texan, down to the stuffed and embalmed armadillo decoration.
The waitress we had was very good, she had our house salads made special with romaine lettuce instead of the iceberg/carrot mix and even threw one in for free for us. She was very attentive to our needs the entire time and was very friendly.
My friend and I ordered a Crispy chicken trio appetizer which is basically nice plump fried popcorn chicken on skewers with 3 different dipping sauces....it was pretty good, especially dipped in ranch dressing, which doesn't come as part of the trio but they had no problem with me asking for it.....for the main course we ordered a full rack of ribs to split and they were pretty good..very meaty and fall off the bone tender. They had a nice sweet and tangy sauce and the price for them was decent. They were better then a few of the bbq places we've been to or chili's. We'd definitely go back for them again.
I have had the steak at longhorn before and it's nothing to write home about...a few of the reviewers recommend Morton's (which I think is SEVERELY over hyped and nothing to write home about either) or Ruth Chris's which is a heart attack on a plate with all that butter....Personally for a steak I'd recommend the Park Steakhouse in Park Ridge...or another restaurant owned by longhorn called Del Frisco's in the city, both of which are GREAT...but expect to pay much more. -

Been to Longhorn a couple of times and i'm never impressed with the steaks and i'm a big time steak lover. I've had many steaks in my life from places like no name restaurants to Morton's and Ruth Chris. I've had better tasting food at the no name place then at Longhorn. The service is nothing to rave about either.

I think you will find the service is rather good here. However, the food (that I ate) could have been a lot better. Of course, I know you will see the err in my ways momentarily, as I elected to order a 7-Peppercorn Steak Salad for my entree. See, I told you... You are thinking to yourself, no wonder, he ordered a salad. I am not quite sure why I did that, considering this is a steakhouse, but I was feeling large I guess and felt I needed a salad. It was a steak salad at least, right? Of course, the others in my party enjoyed a nice 20 ounce bone-in Ribeye, which of course, they loved! Go figure? For appetizers, we scarfed down an order of cheese fries and buffalo chicken wings. They weren't anything special, they were just your typical, run-of-the-mill appetizer you can find pretty much anywhere. The huge standout in my book was the warm, fresh-baked bread, which they served with butter. Delicious. I would have been better off eating four loaves of bread.
