Brian’s parents treated us to dinner at Longhorn Steakhouse on Sunday night. It actually should have been the other way around but they insisted.<\/p>\n

Brian and I had never been to Longhorn before. This was our first trip. They were off to a rocky start when they asked us to wait to be seated when there were several vacant tables throughout the restaurant. I’m not sure what was going on there.<\/p>\n

We had some of their pretzels with the beer infused cheese dip while we waited for our entrees. It was pretty good. What I liked most about them is that they were super salty so I didn’t need to salt them.<\/p>\n

I can’t remember what this salad is called. It had apple chips and bacon and a tangy dressing. It was decent, but I don’t think Brian liked it.<\/p>\n

I took a picture of the bread because I take pictures of everything, specially if it’s a restaurant that I’ve never tried before.<\/p>\n

We should have stopped at the salads. Alas, eating healthy was not meant to be.<\/p>\n

Brian and I decided to keep the calories and cost down by sharing an entree.<\/p>\n

He had the filet and the baked potato while I had the lobster and shrimp mac and cheese portion of the entree. I had a bite Brian’s steak which I thought was good, but he was unimpressed.<\/p>\n

The food was just okay over all. If we’d been there before, I don’t think I would have picked it. It’s just not the kind of restaurant that I would go out of my way to dine at. I do think it’s better than Outback, but I wouldn’t eat at Outback either. LOL.<\/p>\n

At least our server Damian was great. He was friendly and attentive. His service elevated our dining experience. If we ever go back, I’m asking for his section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
