LongHorn Steakhouse is just that, it is a restaurant that provides the finest cuts of beef. They show their passion for grilling fresh steaks that have never been frozen, with special seasoning that is only known to them. Not only are they known for their steaks, but for their chicken, fish, and fall of the bone ribs. This is a well-rounded restaurant and anyone from the age of 5 to 99 can find something on the menu that will be fitting to the pallet.…
The environment and atmosphere of this restaurant is a very sketchy and unprofessional feeling. The servers make customers feel that they are a bother to them. The music that plays all day long is country, blasting over the restaurant, which made it hard to hear anyone talk. The inside is not kept up either. Parts of the ceiling were falling onto tables and the floor and the server simply stated that it was because of the rain but never did anything about it. The bathrooms…
Secondly, the staff is like family. The waiters are extremely nice. They all have manners…
Texas Roadhouse was the dinner place of choice for my family and me the other night; it wouldn’t be the first time we decided to dine at this local restaurant just a few short miles from our current residence. My family and I decided to dine in at Texas Roadhouse not only because of its excellent convenience; located in the center of an outdoor shopping mall that consisted of many shops such as, Wal-Mart, Target and Kohl’s to name a few in which two of those stores required my consideration for a product I was in search of that night but also Texas Roadhouse reminds you of the good ole western roots in which we take part of on a daily basis here in Gilbert, Arizona. I will be evaluating the pros and cons of Texas Roadhouse, three criteria will be used: the total cost must not exceed $25 per person; the menu as well as the establishment must be kid friendly, and reasonable wait times.…
When driving up to the roadhouse on a Saturday night, the first thing the eye sees is a parking lot full of cars and a big, neon sign reading “Texas Roadhouse.” Neon signs can be a very powerful tactic to pulling people inside. The color and brightness suggests fun and warmth. Neon also triggers certain images and places to come to mind. It often associated with bars and alcohol. This subconscious link may attract certain people and repel others. When families with small children go out to eat, they may not want to go into a restaurant that reminds them of bars and rowdy people. The same goes for older folks who prefer a nice peaceful country dinner. They might be better off next door at the Cracker Barrel. Others love the idea of a fun, energetic place to eat with an old school jukebox and Johnny Lee blasting. Texas Roadhouse is also known for its country music that is always coming through the speakers. They play all kinds of country music- from bluegrass to the newest Taylor Swift single. By being the only genre the restaurant plays, it could potentially lose costumers due to the fact that they hate country music. Although many people love it and think it goes perfectly with the style of the roadhouse.…
If a restaurant wants to be the best, then they have to meet some criteria in order to do so. The first defying factor, is whether the atmosphere the restaurant has, is an enjoyable one. Next, in order to have a good experience at that restaurant, the service has to good. This means not only friendly service, but quick service as well. Of course the most important factor, that determines how good a restaurant is, has to do with how good the food is. If food quality is poor, then that can really put a bad image on that restaurant. Lastly, after all of the other factors, was the experience, and the food worth…
The atmosphere at Applebee's was very pleasant and our waiter was friendly and accommodating. We counted seven courtesies (please, thank you, your welcome, may I help you, etc.) that he said to us. Unfortunately, we did overhear another waiter making unprofessional complains about their customer. Our waiter also told us that he had been in the service industry for nine years and had been working at Applebee’s for two years. He had the most…
Finding the perfect restaurant to eat at can be a huge hassle. You and your family have been arguing for an hour about where to eat. You decided you want a sandwich but all of your family members want something completely different. You’re on a tight budget so it seems impossible to find somewhere you can all agree on that is high quality, has many options to choose from, and has a friendly atmosphere. A great restaurant that checks all of these boxes may be hard to find, but not impossible. Chili’s is a great restaurant for people struggling to find an enjoyable, quality place to eat. Chili’s is a high quality restaurant because of the excellent prices, appetizing food, and courteous staff.…
Stated is what I observed: • During the whole time that I was observing, no workers came up to me • I observed that out of all the sauces provided in the sauce bar, creamy garlic was the most popular • All sides were made before customers arrived and were arranged in the middle of the kitchen in metal tubs. This could be for easy access and faster serving time. • Why did customers prefer sitting down and eating at the restaurant rather than ordering to go? • Why did a majority of customers come in groups rather than alone? • I observed two interviews that occurred in the restaurant, one with a girl who seems young, maybe a teenager, and one with an older lady, maybe in the late…

If you’re from Texas, then you are aware of how huge this state really is. Texas happens to be home to three of the top ten largest cities in the country. According to the 2010 US Census, Houston weighs in at number four; San Antonio at number eight; and Dallas at number nine. These big cities being in such close proximity to one another can lead to even bigger rivalries. Dallas, Texas vs. Houston, Texas is a tale as old as time. However, what’s interesting is that a lot of Texans aren’t even sure why this rivalry exists in the first place and how it’s still going so strong. Well, there are a couple of major factors that play a part in this unique rivalry. There’s the big sports rivalries, pop culture differences and similarities, differences…
Service is a very popular element in a casual dining restaurant. During my experience, the service turned out to be pretty good. If I had to give it a number between one being terrible and ten being terrific, I would give it an eight. When I visited Hickory Park, I was with my high school speech group, which had about 15 people in it. That weekend, like usual, Ames was hosting the large group all-state speech festival. This draws in a ton of people to Ames. Hickory Park is where everyone wants to eat; and I mean everyone! So like I expected, we had to wait outside for about 30 minutes because the restaurant was full. I know that there is not much they can do about the restaurant being full. That is just something people who visit during busy times have to deal with. One way to avoid people standing outside would be to make a bigger waiting…
My experience at Golden Corral was awesome. The first time I went to Golden Corral, I was in Clarksville for a field trip. I thought it wouldn’t be a decent restaurant because I’ve never heard of it, but I was wrong. Everything about this place is wonderful. No other restaurant can beat this one.…
The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo: If thinking of Houston makes you think of cowboys…you aren’t wrong. It’s a particularly appropriate association in early spring during what you might call a bonanza week of roping events, livestock competitions, music concerts, etc. that is most easily referred to as the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo – sounds simple, but it’s anything but simple.…
During this experience I defiantly wanted to avoid Role Conflicts. I had decided to sit in a corner area of the restaurant that allowed me to be observant but not disrespectful. After the experience was over I was happy with the overall outcome. Even though food wasn’t the greatest I was able to finish it and the assignment correctly. The area of Fresno that this took place in is considered to be upper class society. There isn’t many people of that culture in that part of the neighborhood either. The menu certainly fit in with the community the food being high priced. I was expecting to see a lot of different cultures inside the restaurant but that wasn’t the case at all. The restaurant was very clean and had very nice décor. I don’t know much about the culture but from what I have seen…
