Filet and good amount of asparagus
Mike F.

At long last, Longhorn may have surpassed the mighty Outback in the casual steak chain arena. As Americans, we've just sort of lost our infatuation with the land down under. I'm not sure if we'll ever be able to recapture the magic of peak Aussie-MANIA in the 80s. Since then, it's slowly gone downhill, from Crocodile Dundee and Steve Irwin to the Hemsworth brothers. If they want to breathe new life into the franchise, it should try to be truly authentic with walls adorned with box jellyfish, Eastern brown snakes, funnel-web spiders, and leaves of the suicide plant, known colloquially as "gympie-gympie." Speaking of ambiance, I think that's where LongHorn has really pulled through. Holy cow, I just realized the "H" is capitalized in LongHorn. I have been typing this wrong for years. But yes, once inside it really feels like a spacious, romantic cabin. Everything is dark amber woodgrain. Black metal chandeliers with those lights made to look like candlesticks hang high above. Great, moody lighting. Some real elaborate paintings as well - giant, like those old creepy 20-foot tall Beauty and the Beast-era portraits. It really gives it all such a whimsical sense of grandeur. As for the food, it's good ol' homestyle frontier cookin'. You ever eat on the frontier? Re-enact your favorite scene from Westworld? They had grilled shrimp skewers in the wild west, right? Surely old prospectors sat by the fire under the stars chowing down on their loaded baked potatoes. I swear LongHorn used to be more rootin' and tootin', more rodeo clown and denim cowboy. Back in those days, they used that super light colored wood from floor to ceiling, and if I'm not mistaken, the servers dressed up in cowboy shirts and hats. Now you might almost say it's classy. It's no longer where the wild things are. Frontier life has been brought to the modern era, and it sure is tasty.

6 oz sirloin steak
Jeniffer H.

This was the worst experience. Was told 20 min wait, because we called ahead, waited a hour. Finally sat the floor under the table had large pieces of food and the floor in general had food and trash. I understand they were busy but I worked in restaurants for 20 years clean table means cleaning seats and floor around it sever was holding plates of food up against his body and bread was all but in the plates My food came out looking like it sat in the heat window forever steak was dry but plate was filled with grease Just disappointed completely

The Longhorn Steak. Yes sir.

It had been a long day. I saw Louie's on my go to list, so we gave it a try. We met some nice…read morepeople and had some good Cheeesteak conversation. We got the Lewie. It comes with cheese sauce. It is very tasty. It's very soft. It has a soft roll, the meat is tender and juicy, and the cheese sauce is velvety. It comes with chips which add a nice crunch. Nice lively crowd.

Outstanding experience. (Hope this review makes up for minor squabbles about Gracie's, which I too…read morelove!) Located a bit out of the way in the Flying Hills golf course, but worth the drive. Sports bar- Eagles vibe w/ a decent draft list. The kegs weren't working (seems to happen at every bar we attend these days) but still enjoyed a Mike & Merrill Philly Hazy IPA. Wings a good size, crisp, you know, the way wings used to be before everyone started charging an arm & a leg & serving broken pigeon wings. Classic "Buffalo" sauce & blue cheese dressing were good. FINALLY tried famous Caramel Burger (which I missed several times at the Hamburger festival). It did not disappoint. Good size, flavorful patty, & what these people do best- the bacon jam & caramelized bacon. The sweetness of the onions sings thru. Order it! Husband ordered seasonal special Frikadellen/Bratwurst Smash Burger. Skipping right to it- the cottage fries. (Gracie's/Louie's if you had this all the time we'd have no beef! LOL) INCREDIBLE! Crisp, thin, tender, amazing. If you follow me you know I am over the frozen fries served at every eatery in this country. Finally, amazingly pleasant, genuinely happy, server- Reese. She was on my side throughout this whole foodie journey, even the beer & burger mishap (initially burger served w/o cheese sauce). She's a keeper! We'll be back & will spread the word! Till then, stay on your toes! Thank you Louie's for a great meal.

I didn't give them that but still. Our total came out to $78. My friend got scrambled eggs, hash browns, french toast, and an espresso martini. I got Brussel sprouts and a mocktail. The brussel sprouts are $15. It was a starter. The mocktail was $15. Also got my brussel sprouts spilled all over the table from the waitress. She then gave me a second one. I don't even know if they charged me for it. Overall fun experience but probably won't come back because of how expensive it is.

I would give it 2 1/2 star. Possibly a three but that's pushing it a bit. The chicken piccata was a…read moregood meal but it wasn't chicken piccata. The calamari was fine shavings of calamari coated with fried breading and a strange heavily Parmesan cheese sauce. The gnocchi was eh.... The whipped feta did not add anything great to it. Someone at our table asked for bread and they told us after looking at him in a very confused way... responded with, " sure we can get you bread, focaccia bread, but it may take 20 minutes." The main thing is the water took 10 minutes to get to the table and our drinks took a half an hour after the water came. One appetizer came out 20 minutes after that and then another 25 minutes after that the dinners came out. All in all... We didn't get any food for over an hour and 15 minutes. The wait staff and manager had no idea how slow everything was and we were the only table that ordered. Everyone other table was eating already. The ambience is OK... It's not great and it was so cold. It was uncomfortable. We sat in the back garden room. The entire restaurant was too cold.

Was so excited to return & see if little Greek spot w/ urban energy was still churning out great…read moredishes. Nope! Ordered same entrées; significant downgrades to food, service, & attitude. Souvlaki, FLAVORLESS. No char, smoke, depth. Tasted like you pan-fried a chicken breast then skewered it. Smaller & presented sloppier. (Compare the pics). Lamb Shank Yvetsi still tender, but for the love of God what happened to the orzo? Burned in my memory how flavorful it was (it had depth!) This time, like you dumped Hunts over pasta. Honey Baked Feta was fair, but nothing measurable. Saganaki had last time, actually way better & I regret not giving it a fairer shake. Telia Chips were standout of the evening. Light fry, tempura-like breading, creamy tzatziki. Sad, if fried zucchini is best part of the meal. Food disappointment aside. It was my birthday. Could've picked from a dozen places in Chester Co, but drove to Berks for you. Hostess, zero acknowledgement. Waitress, zero acknowledgement. Not angling for free desert or a song, just acknowledge me! NEVER have I told service persons (or a stranger on the street) it's my birthday & had them gloss right over it, purse their lips & walk away. My present, within 5 min of check drop was asked to evacuate the table. Heartbroken to learn of Willoughby's closing:-( Close this place too, obvious you're not in it.

This place is amazing and a must stop whenever I come home to visit family. Atmosphere is fantastic…read moreand the food- impressive and delicious. Always friendly staff, inside & outside dining, great bar area. Nice drink selection.

Passing through town, we stopped for an early dinner. At 4:30 we expected the restaurant to be…read moreempty .... but NOOOOO. The place was jumping. We were happy they could seat us. My husband and I assessed Austin's differently. He ordered prime rib which he said was nothing short of perfect. Cooked medium rare as requested, tender, juicy -- he savored every bite. I scanned the menu. Nothing jumped out at me. (I generally don't gravitate to steakhouse-type restaurants.) I ordered a half rack of baby back ribs. My point of comparison is Longhorn's which offers more of a bang-for-a-buck, and in my opinion better tasting ribs. Not to say that Austin's aren't good. They are. Based on the popularity of Austin's, it's clear management knows what they're doing. But I think a small salad and baked potato should be available with the price of the entree -- not worth the extra $7 I was going to be charged. The salad is listed as 'field greens,' -- which it's not -- but reading the menu you'll see they mean iceberg and romaine. The salad was good, enhanced by their garlic ranch dressing. We washed down our meals with well-priced drinks: merlot ($8.90) and Blue Moon ($6.90), then splurged on dessert. Austin's flourless double chocolate brownie a la mode is very rich. One order for two adults is plenty. Austin's is aptly described as a family restaurant. A lot of kids. A lot of noise. Service is friendly and on-the-ball. While not my kind of restaurant, if prime rib is your thing -- this could be the place!
