Brand History

The first Longhorn Steakhouse restaurant was opened in 1981, in Atlanta by George McKerrow Jr. and his father. Inspired by the movie Urban Cowboy, George McKerrow wanted to open a restaurant designed in a Texas style.

In the first year of activity, the restaurant didn’t have all that much success and was struggling to stay on the line. But something that for some looks like a disaster, for Longhorn Steakhouse, was luck. In 1982 a strong snowstorm hit Atlanta for a few days and the people who got caught in this headed to McKerrow’s restaurant for a hot drink and a meal. People were so impressed with all the steaks and spread the word around. So, in 1983 Longhorn Steakhouse opened its second location. By the end of the 1980s, there were 15 restaurants across the United States.

In 2007, the whole restaurant chain was bought by Darden Restaurants Inc., which also owns the Olive Garden restaurant chain.

Today, there are more than 500 Longhorn Steakhouse restaurants in four different countries.

Our review

Longhorn Steakhouse menu includes a wide variety of steaks, such as sirloin, rib-eye, or filet mignon, that are served with different sides for a whole meal. The LongHorn Porterhouse is known as “the largest steak in the game”. This is a 22 ounces slab of beef that mixes a bone-in strip and filet “into one thick cut”.

Besides the ordinary meat cuts, Longhorn Steakhouse restaurants serve some special selections of meat cuts for special occasions. These cuts include the 6-ounce Flo’s Fillet, a 12-ounce New York strip, and a 14-ounce Delmonico.

The secret behind these special steaks is their freshness. Longhorn Steakhouse restaurants never use frozen cuts of meat. Even though frozen meat is more cost-effective for restaurant owners, they will lose their customers in the long run due to the poor quality.
