This Chain Steakhouse Serves Some Of The Best Quality New York Strip, According To Reviews

When we ranked popular steakhouse chains and LongHorn came in at number one, beating much more bougie competitors like Ruth's Chris, Morton's, and The Capital Grille, we knew its steaks were good. Perusing LongHorn Steakhouse reviews, however, it became apparent that one steak, in particular, was especially beloved by customers — the New York strip. For the uninformed, there's a key difference between New York strip and ribeye steak, although both are restaurant favorites. On social media and review aggregators, LongHorn scores big points for the quality and flavor of its NY strips.

"I had the New York strip steak," reported one Yelp review of a New York LongHorn location. "It was cooked to perfection [...] it tasted better than a steak from outback or Texas Roadhouse. They season their steaks really well." A Facebook comment echoed the sentiment: "We got the special New York strip with the brown butter. It was over the top." A YouTube video review had similar raves for the New York Strip: "Honestly, for what I'm paying? [...] Guys, I would say this is definitely, like, one of the best bang for your buck steaks I've ever had. I mean, it's incredibly soft [...] it has great flavor."

The value of LongHorn's New York strip was noted frequently in reviews, with consumers noting that it measured up favorably with cuts of meat from much pricier competitors. As of this writing, the steak carries a price tag of around $28.99, although that is subject to change by location. A Redditor expressed this quite nicely: "The Longhorn near me is honestly one of my favorite steak places. It's consistently better than good and it's so much cheaper than the 'nice' steakhouses that get all the praise."

There are all sorts of "secrets" to cooking the juiciest steak on the internet, but, sometimes, we just want to go to a restaurant and have somebody else handle the job for us. Credible sources indicate that, when dining out, consumers are more motivated by price right now than they have been at any point in the last half-century. In the midst of skyrocketing inflation, diners are particularly sensitive to the bottom line. It can be rare to feel like you are receiving a premium product for a decent price in today's world, so LongHorn really has something special going for it.
