Longhorn Steakhouse

The food was good here today. The 3 star rating is because of two things: 1. I ordered a salad for lunch and our server, Jaron, asked which side do you want with that. To me, this implies that it comes with a side for the stated menu price. Wrong. When I got the bill it was listed as a separate item. I consider this to be a deceptive practice. 2. The men's room was not very clean. The floors were extremely slippery, not just from being wet from mopping. It was almost like walking on ice. I was passing through Albany today and stopped for lunch. Not sure I'll stop here again when I'm in the area.

Our experience at Longhorn Steakhouse in Albany was awesome. Our waitress was ... Omg I just forgot her name, but she is pregnant. She took our orders, was very nice, and never complained. She had a small party that sat behind us that I heard complain about everything. They got on my last nerve, if they got on hers, she NEVER showed it. We had a large party, celebrating the matriarch of the family birthday. Our orders came out hot and the food was delicious. The waitress saw that I gave the matriarch a card for her birthday, and she asked her if she wanted a birthday sundae. She brought it out, we sung happy birthday, and she shared with the greatgrands.

Food was good although my steak was more well done than medium. Our waitress was exceptional. The wait time on the food once seated was extra long due to big parties that arrived ahead of us backing up the kitchen. Due to having to wait so long and the steak not being quite right I cannot give 5 stars. It was good however. (I am not one to send food back unless it is burned.) They were doing their best with the mass crowd of people who were dining in.

Told wait time was 30 minutes. Literally got seated in 30 minutes. Drink orders taken promptly. Five steak orders and one chicken tender order - came out at the same time and noone had to send food back. Unbelievable..... And the food was hot and absolutely delicious. If you look at my reviews you will see I'm hard on establishments. They earned these 5 stars today.
