I was working in Tom's River, New Jersey and my best friend who lives in Newark, New Jersey and I wanted to link up for dinner. He was in the mood for steak and I salmon and we needed a quick and good meal before I had to drive 180 miles home. I searched Google Maps for some good restaurants near Union, New Jersey but we could not locate anything non-chain that I have not patronized that sparked my interest. It was a Friday afternoon and things can get rather busy and crowded for dinner in Northern New Jersey. Hence, I decided on Longhorn Steakhouse in Springfield, New Jersey. Longhorn Steakhouse is my go to when I need a quick meal with consistent food and beverages! Upon my arrival, I was quickly greeted and seated by the Co-Host, Yandel. My best friend arrived minutes after and we were both greeted by Spania, our Server.
We already knew what we wanted prior to being seated. 'Spania' was extremely pleasant, friendly, courteous and professional. She immediately took our beverage orders and brought out fresh baked bread and butter. I usually do not order appetizers but I was "Hangry" because I only had a Cliffbar Peanut Butter Protein Bar and a water all day. Hence, we ordered the Seasoned Steakhouse Wings and the White Cheddar Stuffed Mushrooms For an entree, he ordered a Filet Mignon medium rare with a Garden Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette and Asparagus. I ordered the Longhorn Salmon 10 oz. with Broccoli, Sweet Potato, and a Garden Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette. For our beverages, we both had water, no ice, and four lemons.
Spania was extremely pleasant, attentive, happy and willing to help. Spania had a great attitude and a genuine smile. Spania should be definitely recognized for her "Outstanding Customer Service" which made for a fabulous dining experience. I have been to this Longhorn Steakhouse on several other occasions and I will be definitely returning... Kudos to Spania!
