The Longhorn French Onion Soup features a deep, savory beef broth packed with tender, caramelized onions. It is topped with a large, crusty crostini and a generous layer of melted Provolone and Parmesan cheeses. It is served hot in a traditional crock to keep the cheese gooey and the broth steaming.

FAQs
Is the French Onion Soup vegetarian?
No. The soup uses a traditional beef stock base, making it unsuitable for vegetarians.
Can I get this soup in a cup instead of a bowl?
Most Longhorn locations serve the French Onion Soup in a single standard crock size rather than offering “cup” or “bowl” portions.
What makes Longhorn’s version different from others?
Longhorn uses a blend of Provolone and Parmesan rather than the traditional Swiss or Gruyère, giving it a slightly milder, creamier melt.
Is the French Onion Soup gluten-free if I remove the bread?
Not necessarily. While the bread is the primary source of gluten, the beef base and seasonings may contain thickening agents or additives derived from wheat. Always check with the manager for cross-contamination risks.
Is this soup available for To-Go orders?
Yes. When ordered To-Go, the cheese and crostini are usually placed on top before sealing, though the bread may soften more than it would when served fresh at the table.
