5 Chain Restaurants With the Best Surf and Turf Combos Under $25
If you like red meat and seafood, you can’t go wrong with ordering a surf and turf combo. The pairing of seafood and steak has been done forever, but the term was coined in the 1960s. Fun fact: It is also referred to as “reef and beef” in Australia. The best-of-both-worlds option lets you indulge in a rich, juicy, and filling steak alongside a more refreshing seafood dish. It can get pricy, especially with desirable cuts of steak and lobster. However, there are a handful of restaurants serving options under $25. Here are 5 chain restaurants with the best surf and turf combos under $25.
Outback Tuesday Tails & Sirloin
Outback’s Tuesday Tails & Sirloin is one of the chain’s weekday deals, an unbeatable lobster tail and steak combo that offers serious bang for the buck. Every Tuesday, you can get a “succulent” steamed lobster tail paired with their “juicy” Center-Cut Sirloin, plus a steakhouse potato and side. And, all of it costs just $24.99.
Texas Roadhouse Sirloin & Shrimp
Texas Roadhouse allows you to add Sidekick Grilled Shrimp to any steak for $7.99. You can get up to an 8-ounce steak and shrimp for under $25. “This is an affordable way to enjoy steak and seafood at Texas Roadhouse,” Chef Andrew Owens, a Michelin-trained private chef in California, previously told ETNT. The steak is always cooked to perfection and the nicely seasoned shrimp makes the ideal meal.”

This one’s got heart, fire, and pure crowd roaring deliciousness!”
