So had to wait 'till the new restaurant furor died down before we could try out the newest joint to hit San Antonio. Funny how a restaurant called Longhorn Steakhouse only has two locations in all of Texas and both are in San Antonio? This chain restaurant based out of Atlanta has a western-themed ambiance. Most locations are in the Southeast part of the nation.

I'm a big ribeye steak guy and of course didn't even really look at any other part of the menu but the ribeye section. I had the Outlaw Ribeye which it turns out is 18oz of bone-in, fire grilled, made of awesome goodness.  It was only a buck more than the 12oz regular ribeye.  This medium steak was very tasty and cooked to near perfection. Just a bit too much fat but then again a good ribeye is marble well with fat.

The side of sweet potato with butter and cinnamon was good but was puny in sized compared to the giant ribeye. Guess sweet potatoes aren't quite in season yet.

The meal also came with the house salad. It was well prepared and tasty.

The meal was actually very reasonably priced.  In comparison, the lunch meal we had Saturday @ Ilsong Gardens, previously reviewed here last November, had a more expensive tab. Weird huh for Korean food to be more expensive than steak?

I would recommend this restaurant highly. The wait staff were friendly and helpful, the ambiance was very pleasant and the food was really good. I shall be back there soon.
