LongHorn Gluten-Free Dining Guide

Dining Out with Gluten Sensitivity

For guests with celiac disease, wheat allergies, or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, dining out can be a stressful experience. Fortunately, steakhouses are inherently very accommodating to gluten-free lifestyles because whole cuts of beef, chicken, fish, and simple vegetable sides are naturally gluten-free.

LongHorn Steakhouse provides a Gluten-Sensitive Menu showing options that do not contain wheat, barley, rye, or oats. In this guide, we detail these safe menu options and offer crucial warnings about kitchen cross-contamination.

Gluten-Free Steaks & Entrees

Almost all fire-grilled steaks at LongHorn are naturally gluten-free, including their signature seasonings. LongHorn's proprietary Prairie Dust seasoning is gluten-free. Always let your server know you are ordering from the gluten-sensitive menu to prevent cross-contamination on the grill.

Safe Steak Selections:

• Flo's Filet® (6 oz & 9 oz)
• Outlaw Ribeye® (20 oz bone-in)
• Renegade Sirloin (6 oz & 8 oz)
• The LongHorn® Porterhouse (22 oz)
• Ribeye (12 oz)
• New York Strip (12 oz)
• Fire-Grilled T-Bone (18 oz)

Other Safe Entrees:

• Lemon Garlic Chicken: Grilled herby chicken breast.
• LongHorn Salmon: Grilled salmon brushed with oil and light herbs.
• Redrock Grilled Shrimp: Skewered grilled shrimp. (Be sure to request no rice pilaf side; request broccoli or asparagus).
• Baby Back Ribs: Brushed with sweet BBQ sauce (which is gluten-free).

Gluten-Free Sides & Salad Customizations

Standard sides are simple to navigate. Steamed broccoli, fresh asparagus, and mashed potatoes are gluten-free. Baked potatoes and sweet potatoes are safe, but verify that the potato skins are not coated in flour (a trick sometimes used in kitchens to absorb moisture).

Safe Salad Dressings:

• White Balsamic Vinaigrette
• Creamy Caesar
• Blue Cheese
• Honey Mustard
• Ranch
• Oil & Vinegar

⚠️ Crucial Salad Warning: Always explicitly order your salad with **NO CROUTONS**. If croutons are accidentally added and then picked off, the salad is contaminated and must be remade.

High-Risk Items & Cross-Contamination

Many items that seem gluten-free are actually highly contaminated due to shared cooking mediums:

• French Fries: Cooked in the same fryer oil as breaded appetizers (Texas Tonion, Wings, Chicken Tenders). **Not safe for celiac.**
• Appetizers: The White Cheddar Stuffed Mushrooms contain wheat flour in their cheese stuffing mixture. The Spinach Dip is gluten-free, but it is served with tortilla chips that may be cooked in a shared fryer. Request it with carrot sticks or cucumber slices instead of chips.
• Soups: Most contain wheat flour as a thickener. Avoid loaded potato soup and French onion soup.
