Not specified, United States — American casual dining
A mom ordered four kids meals from Longhorn for $42 instead of the family pack. The portion sizes received significant online criticism for being small and not justifying the price point.
What was great: Nothing mentioned
What could improve: Small portion sizes for the price, especially considering the $42 cost for four kids meals
The Dishes
The order consisted of four kids meals from Longhorn, with each meal including a drink. The specific contents of the meals beyond the beverages were not detailed in the review, but the overall presentation and portion sizes became the focal point of discussion.
The Experience
This was a takeout order, so there was no in-person dining experience to evaluate. The meal was intended as a night out for the family.
Value and Pricing
The total cost for four kids meals came to $42. This price point generated substantial controversy online, with many viewers commenting that the portion sizes were disproportionately small for the amount spent. The mom had initially considered ordering the family pack, which would have cost between $65-70, but opted for the individual kids meals as what she thought would be a more economical choice.
Notable Moments
This mom shared a video of her takeout meal and people were not happy. She started receiving many comments stating the portion size as shocking and sad, especially for a $42 price tag.
The video sparked significant debate online about the value proposition of kids meal pricing at restaurant chains.
The Verdict
Based on the overwhelmingly negative online response regarding portion sizes and pricing, Longhorn's kids meals do not appear to offer good value for money. This experience highlights concerns about pricing at casual dining establishments and whether kids meals justify their cost relative to portion sizes provided.
