Because I've only been to a couple of them when I'm with other people on the road, admittedly over time I get them mixed up. If faced with the choice of one of the three, what are the attributes of each one, or are they all on the same level?

I've never been to the first one. And the other two haven't been since I was a child, but if I recall correctly, Logan's is far below the other two.

Longhorn Steakhouse

Pretty nice atmosphere. Good food and has higher than average chain prices so it keeps out teenagers and such.
quote:

Texas Roadhouse

Good steaks and a much more relaxed atmosphere. Eat peanuts and throw the shells on the floor kind of place. Literally.

Logan's Roadhouse

Never been.

We have a TX Roadhouse here in LC, they cook some good steaks. Only thing I don't like is even after I tell them how I would like it prepared, I have to remind them. If I don't, it almost always comes out well done. I like it med. rare. But other than that, if it's cooked right, it's a good steak.


I went to a Longhorn Steakhouse when I lived in Florida, I liked it a lot. I got the ribs and they were really good.


They were tender but you could pull away from it after the bite, leaving a bite in the rib meat. That's how I like ribs.


Never been to Logan's.

I took a bunch of kids to a Longhorn at an out of town softball tournament. It was good.

Never been to TR.

Went to a Logan's about 15 or more years ago. I can only recall good hot rolls.

Logan's was the first waiting table job I ever had when I was 19. The clientele is what you would expect as were the managers, trashy dirt bags. Luckily, most of the servers were students at LSU so never a dull moment at post work get parties on the weekend.

The steaks were actually decent when I worked there over a decade ago, never frozen and cut fresh daily. I have not been in years but I'm sure they have not up there game much.

Come to Florence, Alabama. We have all three within walking distance of each other... and as far as the peanuts go, Longhorn is the only one without them on the floor.

I had a friend that liked to eat at these places. When I found out I unfriended him.

I don't frequent any of them, but have eaten at each of them at one time or another. Longhorn would be the best of the bunch with Logan's bringing up the rear.

I eat lunch at Longhorn every once in a while. Not bad. Not great. I usually just get a soup and salad. It's been years since I've been to Logan's, but I remember the last time I went to Logan's I did not like it at all because I was really high and the amount of red neon lighting was making me feel unwell.

I would go with Longhorn since that's the only one I haven't tried, and I've heard good things.

I've been to Logan's Roadhouse 4 or 5 times over the years and I've never been disappointed. Always left FULL, probably because of the bread.

frick Texas Roadhouse. As soon as the entire waitstaff started line dancing, I was done...forever.

Longhorn steakhouse gave me an absolute perfectly cooked steak when I went with the SO not too long ago. Someone gave us a giftcards, and I did not have high expectations, but they exceeded them.


It is still not the best ever experience. It came with just a baked potato, and a green salad. But for a chain like that to send out a steak with that much sear but perfectly medium rare on the inside was amazing.



Edit: The steak at Longhorn was better than the last steak I had at J Alexanders. Take that for what its worth.

I'll agree with everyone that Logan's is a distant third.

But I prefer TR to LS, despite the lower price point. Steaks are close, but the sides at TR are really, really good. They also have a very tasty top shelf Texas (Long Island) tea.

I got a rotten steak at logans roadhouse one time. Would not go back if you paid. The food poisoning and diarreah i had after that was life changing.

Texas Roadhouse is one of the few chain restaurants I'll go to and only because of the Cinnamon Butter - it's so good!
