A party of eight of us came in for dinner at 5 pm. Waitlist made ahead of time. Hosts were fast and welcoming. They had our table ready by the time we entered the doors and were sat. Accommodating for families and big parties. Mason was our server he checked on our table to make sure we had everything we needed. Green beans way too oily to the point where the aftertaste rotted in my mouth. I know they usually leave some water in the green beans but this taste was absolutely gross. Good ribs and steak and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. Good bread with butter. Coke products. Country music kept a good ambiance giving a good vibe. Thank you Texas Roadhouse Athens, Ohio! read more

Quick review today. Busy as always. Sat at the bar. Steak was cooked to temp, but lacked any seasoning. Sides were good. Service was average. That's all. Typical Texas Roadhouse experience. read more

Please be careful when going to the bar and ordering drinks. My coworker and I went to have top shelf bourbons there yesterday . We left with horrible headaches.. Not hangover headaches at all... 30 min after our drinks then BAM !! something was wrong with the drinks we had. Either they served us cheap brands and charged full price... or something worse. I still have a headache now... Food is ok . But I'd be very careful about the drinks read more

Had a good steak which has been solid for a long time. The dipping sauce do the onion is different and not very good. Took forever to get our food and the waiter never even apologized, just said"oh your food finally came" Trying to get in the door is ridiculous when they let so many people stand between the lobby doors. We were trying to get through with one persons using a walker and the people just stare at you while standing in front of the door. read more

waited 35 mins (estimated wait time was 15-25), then they tried to sit us at a small table, that was joined (on one side) with a party of 10 people, When I asked for a different table, I was told that they did not have any bigger tables clean. We walked by several tables on the way through, that we could have sat at. Why do you lie to your customers? what happened to customer service? why hold those tables for larger parties, instead of taking care of the customers who are already there? very disappointed! read more

Texas Roadhouse is usually a favorite stop in Athens. We do enjoy the food. Unfortunately, the service on this night was very poor. The hostesses had so many excuses for delays. The first wait was 60 minutes which we understood because the store was busy. The second wait time that we were given was 15 more minutes. The hostess out front then said to my wife that they were seating customers randomly. After following up, the third wait time given to us was 25 more minutes. 25 minutes later, the hostess said it would be 30 more minutes. In the meantime parties as large as ours and bigger were seated. Management needs to address these issues for seating. We may come back but we will definitely think twice before we do. read more

Waited for an hour on Father's Day, didn't seat anyone in that hour, said their kitchen was understaffed and behind on Father's Day, how can you let that happen? read more

Pretty good with an acceptable wait time for such a big party. The steak was delicious! Only 4 stars though because they messed up my sides (no biggie) but also don't have any substantial vegetarian options and still managed to mess up my vegetarian friend's side orders. All she could get was a salad and cheese fries, but they put bacon on them??? I don't think the kitchen should have assumed she'd want bacon when these are the only items she ordered AND she expressed she was a vegetarian to the server. read more

The service is awful. This is the third time we have waited over an hour for food. The server vanished, while 4 other tables around us finished and they seated new guests two of which even finished and left. UNREAL! As mentioned, this was not an isolated incident! Three strikes and you are out! We will never be returning. If you choose to eat here I hope you have better luck. read more

We have visited many times, and this was by far the worst. The rolls were hot and fresh. We were waited on quickly. After this, we barely saw our waitress, even when my husband's cup set empty for 20 minutes. We waited over an hour for our food. My husband's ribeye had been setting awhile before being served. When it arrived, it was cold, along with the baked potato. They were busy tonight, but a cup shouldn't set empty that long, nor should it take over an hour to receive a ribeye and a salad. read more

Let's see didn't get my salad ,mushrooms and onions for steak ,no rolls and most importantly steak was overcooked.Why is it so hard for a steak joint to cook steaks medium rare I don't get it. read more

Food is always delicious. Service is fantastic! Ava has been our server a few times now, and she is always so quick, kind, and efficient. She always makes us laugh and makes sure everything is great for us. A lovely place to eat and have never had any issues! We always use the Texas Roadhouse app to join the waitlist as well, which is a fantastic addition. read more

Low expectations but nowhere to eat in Athens, OH on graduation weekend and Texas Roadhouse offered call ahead reservations. Shocked at how good it was. Scott our server was fantastic despite the place being packed. Food and drinks were all great and low cost for the quality and portion sizes. read more

After getting my daughter into her apartment we were starving and decided to try Texas Roadhouse. We absolutely loved it. The serving sizes are very generous, the atmosphere is pleasant, the food was outstanding, and our server, Elle, was amazing! This girl should get a raise! We will definitely be back when we are in Athens. read more

Today I went to Texas Roadhouse with my friend for dinner. Everything was going good until they brought out our salads. I started to put my dressing into my salad and then I noticed something off. I pulled on the thing and I pulled out a long piece of black hair. This is not the first time this has happened. I came here about a week ago ordered the same salad and found a piece of hair in it. Both times I couldn't finish eating as it disgusted me. This time one of the employees saw and came to take it and asked if I wanted another one and I said no. I love this restaurant and the food is good but this has happened twice. Other than the food the people who work here are amazing and I would still come back I just wouldn't order the house salad again. I actually wouldn't order any salad again from here. read more

I've ate at other Texas road houses. Use to frequent one in Chantilly VA that was real good but my past experience in Huntington WV sort of turned off of Texas road house but I was really amazed how well I was treated and taken care of here in Athens Ohio especially after reading some of the views. Food was really good including the onion I got for appetizer. Really enjoyed my self while I was there. Great Job Athens Texas road house read more

Waitress was baller, gave us 12 rolls out of nowhere. Pure bone apple teet. Those buns have a warm place in my heart, forever and always. Texas roads take me home! read more

Service is hit and miss. Waited almost 45 minutes for salads. Steaks came out not cooked to order and plates were cold. Got there at 730 ish and left at 930 read more

Awful experience. Food was cold. Chili was cold. Steaks were cold. Baked potatoes so cold nothing melted. Dinner took 25 minutes after appetizers were delivered. Steaks were not properly cooked. Men's bathroom a mess. read more

Today I went to this location with my boyfriend and everything was outstanding. From the service, to the food and overall environment everything was great. Our server Brian, was extremely enthusiastic and knowledgable. It was really nice to have a server that was positive and happy to be working at this place. The meal was delicious. I highly recommend going to this restaurant and asking for Brian as your server!!! read more

Only if you get seated in Inez's section. She provided great service and was playful and fun to be around. As for the food Texas Roadhouse does food well. I would recommend. But ask for Inez. read more

I've only eaten at Texas Roadhouse a handful of times, but nothing regarding my previous experiences really stood out to me initially when some friends suggested we eat here after we finished our workouts. Enter Joann. Joann [sp.] was truly the person who made each of our Texas Roadhouse visits this week memorable. She was extremely pleasant and a super personable waitress. From the jump, I began to order my usual club soda w/ lime but she told me straight up, "you don't want to do that because of _______." I appreciated her opinion and transparency and I knew then I could trust her on other recommendations. The entire week, (we've eaten here maybe 4 times, convenient to the hotel and open later than other restaurants in the area) Joann went above and beyond to make our experience pleasant: From the light hearted jokes and conversation, to her bringing me two glasses of water with each refill because she noticed how fast I drank them and that I'm a thirsty individual. She really made us feel like we were her only table amongst the crowd. The food was cooked perfectly to my liking. Each time I went, I ordered the pork chop dinner. You have the option to get either one or two chops, along with two sides. The first night I ordered only one chop, with mashed potatoes and green beans. The next I opted for two chops and potatoes with white gravy. The chops were amazingly juicy and easy to cut into. Not only that, they were tender, seasoned well and easy to chew. I will say that for me, one chop is filling, but was not enough. However, with two pork chops I felt like I was over eating by the time I got to the end. Pick your poison on whether or not you want one or two. They're sizable, but If you're a smaller person one is definitely enough. The green beans weren't my favorite, so on the next visit I ordered broccoli which was cooked just fine. Not too firm, but not mushy soft either. Me and the crew will certainly be back next week to visit our favorite person and enjoy the food again. read more

Our server Haley (not sure last name) was AMAZING! She was quick and great with getting things to the table. A very personable person and was downright, amazing!!! She deserves a raise! Will be coming back because of her. We came on June second, around 7 o'clock. read more

This may be my first ever visit to a Texas Roadhouse after years of driving past them. Pretty good experience. Got on the waitlist online, walked to the restaurant, was greeted in a professional and friendly manner. Walking to the table the young lady asked about my experience and I told it was a first for the chain and she was very welcoming. Short wait for the wait staff who was helpful. Ordered a New York strip with baked potato and a cup of chili. Bread was good and I enjoyed the honey butter but I only ate one small role as I wanted to leave room for the main course. Ice tea glasses were real glasses and a great size. Chili arrived quickly and was tasty. I've eaten my share of chili and I did not leave any to waste so it was good. Steak came with two small baked potatoes. Waitress said they included two because they were relatively small. While that is true one was the perfect size for me. Everything tasted good, waitress was timely and professional, and I was able to pay online though the NCR system could be better that's not the fault of this location and I'll provide feedback directly to corporate about that. read more

went here while on vacation can say that i'm not very happy with the service at this location the waiter was very slow and didn't pay attention to anything got are orders wrong multiple times. read more

Steak house. Good price on them and there's a display of the steak. It's nice to see that what you are eating is not coming straight out the deep freezer and full of fat. read more

Call ahead waiting reservation was great. We arrived at end of window and parked and electronically checked in was seat almost immediately. Grabbed some peanuts from the barrel for the table. The peanuts along with the delicious bread and butter were awesome. Server, Tim, was helpful. Prime Rib was great. One could really taste the hickory smoke. Delicious rack of ribs that fell off the bone. If your up for an old fashion sweet side, treat yourself to a loaded sweet potato! Tim recommend Louis M. Martini® Cabernet and it was perfect. Only complaint was the entrees kinda took a long time to get. read more

Best Steak restaurant around. Love the service the food and the music. Staff is always friendly when we come in. This is my go to restaurant. And they have a wide variety of alcoholic beverages which most don't. This is my favorite place to eat at for sit down read more

I've seen the around in several locations but have never been? Was fairly impressed. The food seemed good with fresh ingredients. Great service and well timed out. read more

I've been coming to Roadhouse for years and I've apparently been sleeping on Chicken critter salad. It made me want to try their chicken tenders on their own. The atmosphere is always great in Roadhouse. read more

Probably one of the safest places to go in Athens for decent food. Join the waitlist online before you go to avoid long waits.

none of the food was cooked all of the way and every single one of our dishes were dirty. the glasses were disgusting, as were the plates. will not be going back. if you want a good meal with CLEAN dishes, go to the lancaster restaurant. read more

Best meal, service & atmosphere we have had since pre COVID!! Food was ON POINT!!! Nate was THE BEST server EVER!!! Everyone in the place was smiling, helpful and happy to be there to take care of the customers. Stopped there on vacation, I just wish we didn't live so far away to keep going there as regulars!!! read more

Ate here for the fourth time. Food has gotten better seasoning-wise, but the cooks haven't. Ordered a ribeye "as rare as possible" and got a steak medium rare. I requested anither steak cooked rare, and my next steak came back worse- medium to med-rare. At this point I pointed this out, but was too hungry so I ate half of original steak. My server was nice and helpful throughout the time, and I had my meal taken off. After multiple visits, if I want a decent steak I will spend a little extra money and eat at Cutler's. I will never order a steak at Texas Roadhouse again. read more

Horrible service! horrible drinks! highly recommended not going to this place waited over an hour for our food just for them to tell us they forgot to put in our order and then waited even longer not only this the server never came back to the table and they couldnt even make a simple drink at the bar this place needs a lot of work read more

I have to acknowledge how lucky Athens is to have this Texas Roadhouse. We have been eating there for years but our visiting friends pointed out how friendly and professional the entire staff was. They met the owner and our waiter seemed to have esp because he kept our table full of drinks, laughs and more than a meal. The food is always good. The wait is always reasonable the portions require a doggie bag and the drinks convince you that you got your money's worth. I guess I knew this all along but it took friends from Nashville to make me realize what a prize this place is. Hats off to Bruce and Taysap. You guys are the best. read more

Love the filets but service and food is always sub par. One in ten times they hit it out of the park

This is the worst experience i have ever had at a Texas Roadhouse. Our server, julia, took our order and we only saw her once after that. Someone else delivered the food and then quickly left. The girl who delivered our food came back for a few seconds to check if everything was good then left again. Shortly into the meal my grandmother and i needed refills and we still couldn't get ahold of anyone. We had no clue where our waitress had gone. She then returns at the end to give us our bill after waiting other tables around us skipping us over each time. We let her know she had forgotten to check in on us and she didn't care at all. read more

Honestly, I have no complaints. Ordered online, everything was correct in my order including toppings and sauces. Food was ready on time even though they were really busy and it all tasted great. read more
