LongHorn Flo’s Filet Prices (2026): 6oz & 9oz Filet

Last checked: Oct 15, 2026

Flo’s Filet is LongHorn’s softest steak. It’s a center-cut filet — the tenderloin — which means almost no fat, almost no chew, and a texture that people describe as buttery because there’s really no better word for it. If you’ve ever wondered what the LongHorn Flo’s Filet price is, or whether it’s worth paying more than a sirloin for, this page has the answer.

Quick version: Flo’s Filet comes in 6oz and 9oz, and costs typically $22–$30 depending on size and location. The 6oz is the date-night portion. The 9oz is for people who want a real steak dinner without going full ribeye.

Who Is Flo?

The steak is named after a real person — Flo, a longtime LongHorn server who loved this cut. It’s been on the menu since 1981, which makes it one of the longest-running items LongHorn has ever served. That’s not marketing fluff. A steak doesn’t stay on a menu for 40+ years unless people keep ordering it.

What makes it different: the filet is cut from the center of the tenderloin, the least-worked muscle on the cow. Less work = more tender. That’s the whole secret. No marinade, no gimmick — just the tenderest part of the animal, seasoned and seared.

6oz vs. 9oz: Which Size Should You Get?

The 6oz is the right call if you’re having an appetizer, splitting a dessert, or you just don’t eat huge portions. At 330 calories for the steak alone, it’s also the lightest steak entrée on the menu. It looks small on the plate. It eats bigger than it looks, because filet is dense.

The 9oz is the full steakhouse dinner. It’s the size to order if the filet is your main event and you’re hungry. The price jump from 6oz to 9oz is usually only $4–$5, so the per-ounce value is better on the 9oz.

Honest take: if you’re torn, get the 9oz. The 6oz leaves a lot of people wishing they’d gone bigger, especially once the bread basket and appetizer are done.

Flo’s Filet vs. the Other Steaks at LongHorn

• Filet vs. Ribeye: Filet wins on tenderness and calories. Ribeye wins on flavor — all that marbling gives it a richer, beefier taste. Filet is the refined pick; ribeye is the indulgent one. Compare with our LongHorn ribeye prices.
• Filet vs. New York Strip: The strip is firmer and chewier with more beef flavor. The filet is softer and milder. If you like to actually chew your steak, get the strip. If you want it to cut like butter, filet.
• Filet vs. Renegade Sirloin: Sirloin is the budget steak — lean, bold, roughly half the price. Filet is nearly twice as tender and much milder in flavor. Sirloin for everyday, filet for occasions.
• Filet vs. Porterhouse: The Porterhouse gives you both strip and filet on one bone, but it’s 22 ounces and a commitment. Filet is the same tenderness without the marathon.

The Surf & Turf Option: Filet + Lobster Tail

LongHorn pairs the 6oz Flo’s Filet with a 4oz lobster tail, served with drawn butter. It typically runs $29–$40. This is the anniversary-dinner order, and honestly, it’s a good one — the mild filet and the sweet lobster don’t fight each other the way a fatty ribeye and lobster can.

Worth it? If it’s a special occasion, yes. On a random Tuesday, the plain filet is the smarter spend.

How to Order Flo’s Filet at LongHorn

Doneness: Filet is best at medium-rare or medium. Because it’s so lean, going past medium dries it out fast. If you usually order medium-well, try medium here — the tenderness makes up for the extra pink.

Side pairing: Every steak comes with one side. Garlic mashed potatoes are the classic filet pairing. A loaded baked potato works too. Steamed asparagus if you want something lighter.

Toppings: LongHorn offers steak toppings like sautéed mushrooms and onions. Filet doesn’t need them, but a mushroom topping adds flavor without adding much cost.

Bread: Free fresh-baked bread comes to the table. Eat it warm.

Ways to Save on Flo’s Filet at LongHorn

• Go at lunch. LongHorn’s lunch menu (Mon–Sat, 11 AM–3 PM) offers smaller steak portions at lower prices — including a lunch filet.
• Start with happy hour. LongHorn’s Prime Time Happy Hour (Mon–Fri, 4–7 PM) discounts appetizers and drinks. A $5 appetizer before a filet keeps the total bill reasonable.
• Join the eClub. LongHorn’s email list sends a birthday reward (usually a free dessert) and early access to seasonal promos.
• Skip the lobster add-on unless it’s a special occasion. The plain filet is the value play.

Is Flo’s Filet Worth It?

If tenderness is what you care about, yes. Nothing else at LongHorn cuts this soft. The ribeye has more flavor, the sirloin is cheaper, but the filet is the steak you order when you want the meal to feel like an occasion.

One fair warning: filet is mild. If you love big, beefy, fatty steak flavor, the filet might taste a little quiet to you. In that case, get the ribeye. But if you want tender above all else, Flo’s Filet is the one.
