I stopped at Lindey's on Monday for lunch. I will say, their lunch menu is very reasonably priced but I was there for one thing and one thing only - the Lindey's Special Sirloin. The meals are served family style, and I was dining solo, but I wanted to see what the "special" sirloin was all about for $42.95. I placed my order for the Lindey's Special Sirloin, ordered medium rare, which the menu card on their tables accurately describes as a warm red center. The meal started with a typical steakhouse salad. The meal was then came the steak which the server brought table side and sliced open in front of me. Immediately upon cutting the steak open, I noticed the steak was very rare, and appeared at best blue. I am not much of a complainer and enjoy a rare steak, however, when I cut into the steak for my first bite the center of the steak was still cold to the touch. After waiting for a server to come by and check on my meal, which never happened, I brought the steak back to the server station and expressed the center of the steak was still cold to the touch. All of the servers looked at me as if I was stupid. Again, I have no problem with a rare steak, but this was cold in the center as if it were grilled straight from the fridge without resting up to room temp. I will give Lindey's this, the sirloin is thick and sizable. However, for a steak that thick it must be brought to room temp before cooking, which mine clearly was not. Perhaps then steak was pulled from the fridge and not rested because I ordered a dinner steak during their lunch menu, which predominantly features burgers, steak sandwiches, etc. An error in cooking the steak, no big deal. I have had worse. What upset me most was the restaurants solution was to take my sirloin that was cut in half table-side and broil the hell out of it. A complete waste of over $40. As others have mentioned as well, the steak is as bland as can be. They offer some sort of garlic powder seasoning at each table, but no flavor has penetrated the steak whatsoever by tossing that on top of each bite. I may be back to try the incredibly affordable lunch menu. The burgers at the tables around me looked quite good. The potatoes were also delicious I, however, will not be returning for their claim to fame, sirloin. Management should have handled the situation better, re-fired a steak to medium rare, and taken care of the customer instead of turning my $40 sirloin into a lump of charcoal.

Don't waste your time. They only serve sirloin, they flat out refused to saute onion for me. The menu is small and when we asked if there was a steak menu, the waitress brought over the big floor sign. What a joke *******update**** The manager or owner, not sure, came by with a small cup of sautéd onions and told me not to tell anyone. We finally got our steak after an hour of waiting. It was undercooked and lacked flavor. The best thing about the meal was actually the bread. I think it was cut up hot dog buns. But it did taste good. After we finished eating, the same man that gave me the onions, came over and made a salty comment about how good the onions were because I didn't finish eating the raw hunk of meat and have to bring it home. Mind you, I've had gastric bypass surgery and dont need someone making a comment about not being able to eat all of my food. At $43 per steak you would think it would have some flavor. Not going back and I wont be recommending this place to anyone else either.

Solid experience. The steak was a good cut and it was cooked well but it wasn't seasoned very well. They do have salt and garlic salt available but if your someone who really loves seasoning they go light on it. The potatoes, bread and mushrooms were delicious. I will definitely come back and try some other things on the menu

Sirlon steak was tender. I asked for well and got medium. I specifically said I have high blood pressure so no red meat. The garlic bread was good and so was the mashed potatoes, it was red potatoes delicious as well. Now being a Texan and I eat steaks on date nights which what today was. And the sirloin had no flavor. It tasted as if no seasoning was added it was just cooked. Well any way, very friendly and attentive staff. Make reservations before you go. Plenty of parking. Very nice, clean restaurant. Only 4 items on the menu! They don't have Ribeyes it's only Sirloin. I'm good for this one time. Just add salt and butter like we did.

i recently threw a surprise birthday party for my husband at Lindy's steak house. i made all the arrangements with Bill who graciously arranged for us to be a bit out of the way from other guests. His servers were excellent pacing our cocktail hour perfectly with dinner. The food was as always amazing. Bill came out and served the cake that i brought in. The vibe and the energy in the place was awesome. Our guests had a fabulous time and most of all my husband had a great birthday celebration. i can't recommend this place enough! Thank you Bill and staff for a great evening.
