Cut Origin, Beef Quality & Tenderness Profile

Tenderloin comes from the back area of the cattle. This muscle does very little work, so the beef stays naturally soft. The cut contains very little gristle or tough tissue.

LongHorn selects thick center cuts for Flo’s Filet. The kitchen avoids the thin tail ends. This round shape helps the meat cook evenly across the grill. It forms a light-brown crust while the center stays juicy.

This cut does not have the heavy fat lines of a ribeye. The result is a lean, tender steak that diners can cut with a fork.

LongHorn Flo’s Filet® Prices & Portion Sizes

LongHorn offers Flo’s Filet in two popular sizes. Both sizes include a full side dish and a salad.

6 oz Flo’s Filet

The 6 oz cut is the classic size on the menu. It costs $27.79, depending on your location. This cut is about two inches thick. It cooks quickly and evenly on the grill. It gives you plenty of protein without feeling too heavy. Likewise, it is a great choice if you also want warm bread, appetizers, and dessert.

9 oz Flo’s Filet

The 9 oz cut is thicker and heartier. Its price is $33.29.  This cut stands nearly three inches tall before cooking.

The extra thickness helps the steak stay juicy in the center. It develops a rich, golden crust on the outside. For about five dollars more, you get 50% more meat. That makes the 9 oz cut an excellent value for meat lovers.

What Does Flo’s Filet® Taste Like?

Flo’s Filet is famous for its clean beef flavor and tender bite. It does not carry the heavy grease found in larger, marbled cuts. Instead, each bite delivers a light, savory taste that melts in your mouth. 

Texture Above All (Melt-in-Your-Mouth Quality)

The main appeal of LongHorn Flo’s Filet is its tenderness. Other steaks, like top sirloin, have a firm chew. Flo’s Filet has a smooth, soft texture. Each bite cuts easily and stays tender throughout the entire meal.

Flavor Profile (Mild, Clean & Beefy)

This steak has a clean, natural beef flavor. It is not oily or greasy. LongHorn uses its signature grill seasoning to bring out the natural flavor of the meat. The blend adds a balanced touch of salt, garlic, and spices without overpowering the cut.

The Risk of Overcooking Lean Cuts

Beef tenderloin is an exceptionally lean cut with very little internal fat. Because of this, it stays juiciest when cooked to lower internal temperatures. Cooking the meat for too long removes its natural juices. Ordering it Rare, Medium-Rare, or Medium preserves its natural moisture and tenderness.

How LongHorn Prepares and Grills Flo’s Filet®

Grilling a lean cut like beef tenderloin requires precise heat and timing. Trained Grill Masters cook each filet carefully to keep it tender and juicy. Every filet goes through a strict kitchen process before it reaches your plate.

Hand-Cut Seasoning and Grilling Steps

LongHorn trains its Grill Masters to follow exact steps for every steak:

• Careful Inspection: Staff inspect each steak to ensure an even, high-quality center cut.
• Fresh Seasoning: The grill team coats both sides with LongHorn’s signature spice blend.
• High Heat Grilling: The steak goes onto a hot grill at 500°F.
• Searing: High heat creates a golden crust and locks in natural juices.
• Short Rest: The steak rests for two minutes before serving to keep the juices inside.

Steak Temperature & Doneness Level

Doneness Level	Internal Temperature	Center Color & Texture
Rare	115°F – 120°F	Cool red center with an extra soft texture
Medium-Rare	125°F – 130°F	Warm red center; very juicy and tender
Medium	135°F – 140°F	Warm pink center with a tender, firm bite
Medium-Well	145°F – 150°F	Thin line of pink with a firmer texture
Well-Done	155°F+	Fully cooked through with no pink inside

The Ideal Doneness for Flo’s Filet®

Grill Masters recommend ordering Flo’s Filet at Medium-Rare.  This temperature warms the center through and keeps the meat tender and juicy.
