I received a LongHorn Steakhouse gift card for the purpose of this review. This post was made possible by Mom Spark Media. Thoughts are my own.

Dining out together, my husband and I, is a time when we can sit and just talk.  There is nothing worse than taking the time to get a sitter, PAY a sitter, travel to dinner….only to have the experience be less than pleasurable.  We have dined at Longhorn Steakhouse a few times now and every time we have gone, it’s gone nothing but smooth!  This past weekend my husband and I joined some friends for a “date night” and the food, conversation and atmosphere was, yet again, top notch.

LongHorn Steakhouse Fall Menu

I wanted to share with you information on Longhorn Steakhouse’s new Fall Peak Season Menu.  If you follow us on Instagram, you got a “taste” of what we experienced over the weekend.  Gosh, looking at these pictures, I’m ready to go back!

To start, we ordered the amazing Oktoberfest Pretzel Sticks.  My husband saw it and ordered it sooner than we could even say hello to our server!  As excited as we were to try these out, they satisfied every craving.  Not only were they delicious by themselves, but there were dipping sauces to go along, which made them even better!  After that, they brought out our Honey Wheat bread with butter, a carb lovers dream!

LongHorn Steakhouse Fall Menu Starter Items
We ordered up our meals, all came with sides and we had salads. Again, not a complaint around the table. The options on the Fall Menu are pretty vast. Check out some of the options on the menu right now…

o   Seasonal Beer is a great ingredient for soups, sauces and dips because it brings hearty flavor to a dish . In fact, LongHorn’s new Peak Season Oktoberfest Pretzel Sticks are served with Sam Adams® beer cheese and bacon honey mustard dipping sauce.

o   Apples can be great in desserts like tarts or pies, but can also add a satisfying crunch to a salad. It’s a very versatile fruit and gives salads, such as LongHorn’s new Peak Season Apple Harvest Salad, a tart crunch and balances out earthy flavor of leafy greens.

o   Sweet Potatoes are a hearty side to go along with a great grilled steak, but they can also work well in a salad. Think outside of the box and try them as a crouton substitute, like LongHorn does in the new Peak Season Harvest Apple Salad that also includes crisp Fuji apples, pecans, dried cranberries, bacon and spinach in an apple cider vinaigrette.

o   Brussels Sprouts have made their comeback and are the perfect accompaniment to steak and ribs dish.  LongHorn’s new Brussels Sprouts Au Gratin feature bacon in a four cheese cream sauce topped with provolone and parmesan bread crumbs.

o   Mushrooms are an excellent option for a grilled side. But, LongHorn also uses mushrooms in seasoning rubs like on the Porcini Portobello Ribeye that’s featured on the restaurant’s Chef’s Showcase menu.

o   Pumpkin is the epitome of fall flavor and is a perfect ingredient for bread or seasonal cake. LongHorn’s new Pumpkin Spice Lava Cake is a warm pumpkin spice cake filled with cream cheese icing and drizzled with Maker’s Mark® bourbon-caramel sauce and candied pecans.

Chef’s Showcase – Introducing awe-inspiring creations from our very own chefs. Enjoy these unique, mouth-watering entrees while they last. Served with choice of side & hand-chopped salad.

o   New Porcini Portabella Ribeye: Ribeye rubbed with porcini dust, brushed with balsamic butter sauce and topped with a cedar-grilled portabella.

o   New menu item Pork Osso Buco: Tender, meaty, slow-cooked pork shanks. Topped with wine and roasted vegetable sauce over creamy mashed potatoes.

LongHorn Steakhouse Fall Dinner Menu Items
And of course, when you have a fabulous dinner, sometimes you just HAVE to squeeze in dessert. If you are dining at LongHorn Steakhouse you do at least! This dessert was large enough for four of us to share – and we brought leftovers home!

All in all, a wonderful experience from the not too long wait to be seated, all the way throughout our dinner up until dessert. Highly recommend the Fall Menu at LongHorn Steakhouse!
