Well, it's been 6 years since my last review of this restaurant, but I still really like it. Sure, the price is higher ($34 vs. $24), for a boneless ribeye, but you still get unlimited rolls and two sides with your meal. The service is variable, because it's still somewhat transient, but they still do try really hard. And the ambiance is the same, with country music blaring too loud, and several TVs with no sound on. I still think it's a semi-affordable meal compared with other places. Today, I got a free cactus appetizer since I bought a $40 gift card. I ate the whole thing, so my cardiologist will be very happy with me after that. I also got refills on the rolls four times, but my son ate most of them I think. Overall, still a good experience 6 years later. read more

Texas Roadhouse - Pork chop dinner for my lovely wife - Steakhouses Near Me - Bloomingdale, Illinois

Family dinner again and this time the service was disappointing. More attention to a coworker and a couple of old ladies than insuring your tables are taken care of. You disappeared for over 10 minutes near the end and when I requested refills on the beverages (plural) you only brought my son's back which i tried making your job efficient too. You definitely had time to chitchat with the 2 old ladies instead of handling ALL of your tables. Your tip probably suffered at least 25pct more of what I would normally give. read more

I am not sure why the three star rating. The restaurant is always packed. Great service. And consistently good food. A fun vibe. Of course you have to eat a bunch of peanuts and the rolls with butter. read more

First time at Texas Roadhouse . My wife had the Sirloin and I had the 10oz Salmon . Both entrees with cooked perfectly . Both came with 2 sides . Service was great , food came out quickly , bread rolls came hot everything was enjoyable. The early bird dinner menu is a bargain at 13.99 read more

Texas Roadhouse is definitely a nostalgic place for me. It's been years since I've visited and was happy to retry some of my favorites. Once inside, one is still greeted and asked if you'd like to pick a meat cut from the case before going back to your table. Instead of getting a bucket of peanuts, one gets a prepackaged bag one can enjoy there or at home. This definitely helps keep the inside cleaner! We started with their ever famous rolls and were happy they give out two butters per basket now! For mains, I got the side Caesar Salad. My husband got the Full Slab of Ribs which came with two sides: Mashed Potatoes for him and Loaded Baked Potato for me. This was a really nice way for us to spread the value of our meal. They have one of my favorite caesar salads with deliciously creamy dressing and great croutons. We both really enjoyed our food. To pay, one can use cash with your server otherwise you can use the at table tablet to pay with card. I've seen a lot of other large chain restaurants use these but this was my first time seeing it here. It was easy to use and be on our way. Overall, we enjoyed a visit back to Texas Roadhouse. It still brings back that sense of nostalgia and the menu hasn't changed much to enjoy some classics. We also were there to enjoy employees doing a line dance (happens every 30 minutes). Fun! Tip: Starting 12/13, they will be open for lunch all weekdays (currently just Friday's). read more

This is the first time we've been here. I've heard a lot of good things about it but never had a chance to give it a try. The restaurant is very large and there's a lot of seating there are small booths as well as large booths that fit up to six large adults or eight smaller adults. There's a bar area too. Lots of wood decor. They play music in the background. It is loud enough to not hear the conversations at the next table but also quiet enough to hear the conversations at your own table. My husband used to restroom and said they were clean and nice. When you first walk in on the left side there are steaks in a display case and you can pick the one that you want. Since I haven't been here before, I wanted to look at the menu first. Our waiter was really nice and patient with us because we wanted to look over the entire menu. We were pleasantly surprised to see that there are specials even on the weekends until 1:00 p.m. and since that is when we came in, we took advantage of the $13.99 specials. When we sat at the table there's a bucket with a bag of peanuts in there and they gave us rolls with I'm guessing a cinnamon honey butter. They were served nice and hot and delicious. My husband ordered the country fried chicken with a Caesar salad and green beans. The Chicken was good but he said there was too much sauce and it was overwhelming. The green beans were seasoned and prepared perfectly. I ordered the 6 oz sirloin steak dinner with a Caesar salad and fresh vegetables. The steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The vegetables were also cooked perfectly not raw and not mushy. They served us the Caeser Salads first, they were larger then I was expecting. I think I will ask for the dressing on the side next time... I like my salads with a lot less dressing. We definitely filled up our tummies! I had to force myself to eat the last bite of steak. The table next to us was celebrating their sons birthday he turned 21 and the wait staff came around the table and sang Happy Birthday to him and we all screamed yahoo, heehaw, or something similar at the end. It was fun. We will be back again. Highly recommend dining here on the weekend before 1pm (or Monday thru Thursday until 5pm) and taking advantage of the $13.99 lunch specials ($3 savings) read more

If you're looking to find true hospitality then, this is your place! Everyone is always so inviting and kind. It truly feels like one big family! Walking up, you'll be warmly greeted by the hostess. Which, always puts a smile on your face. The whole restaurant is always festive, fun, and full of life! If you ever need a reason to celebrate anything come here. You won't regret it! I love how they have a $13.99 early bird price. It comes with an entree and two sides of your choice. Monday-Thursday until 5pm. I always get the 6oz top sirloin steak with a baked potato and a salad. It's a truly tasty meal! I love the hot rolls with whipped honey butter. Some of the best rolls that you'll ever have. They are light and fluffy in the middle with a glaze of honey and a touch of salt. With whipped creamy butter. Filled with butter, cinnamon, and honey. Simply delicious! 6 oz top sirloin steak-This steak is perfectly seasoned. It has a crispy outside with a soft/ chewy center. It's salty and savory all in one delicious bite. With a good bite and heat! Along, with a hint of smoke. It's lovely! Baked potato with butter-this potato is fluffy and light in the middle. And, perfectly silky. The outside is salty and incredibly delicious! I can't get enough of it. I ordered the skin without salt. Because, they put a lot on the outside. The butter is light and airy. It's creamy and thick! It had that addictive sweet/ salty flavor that keeps you coming back for more. Salad- this salad is served ice cold. It's crisp and refreshing. The topping are all fresh and delicious! The dressings are all delicious! I can't get enough of it I order the dressing on the side. Because, they put a heavy amount of dressing. So, if you're looking for a tasty dinner at a good price. Come here! read more

Our waitress was great. The prime rib was fantastic. Why 2 stars? The manager, Brian, was less than hospitable. The BBQ chicken was very dry and flavorless. We didn't want a replacement. He did not take it off the bill until we asked. He was very upset as evidenced by his tone and posture. He took off the chicken but charged us separately for the corn and salad. SAY WHAT? SERIOUSLY? We spoke with the waitress and she was perplexed. We asked to speak with Brian but be was too chicken to come back to the table. He did take the 2 sides off in the end. Brian is a horrible manager and not a good image for this restaurant. read more

Man, my hubby loves this place. He hadn't been to one for years, and we were thinkin' about a place filled with good ol' comfort food. So guess where WE headed? Ok- y'all know the drill. Even though we got there about 5.10pm on a Friday night, the place was BUSY. I mean, like "we're in California busy" (if you've ever lived in Cali, you KNOW most restaurants are busy like all the time and you gotta wait). We were told a 15 minute wait ensued- OR we could sit at the bar. We took the bar, natch! Seated quickly and ordered a tall beer just as fast. Hubby ordered soda water and I had the brewskie. They don't have like, you know, local microbrews. You're getting good ol' American national brands at this place. A Yuengling it was! Quaffable, if not memorable. Hubby ordered 12oz Ft Worth Ribeye, medium - and it came exactly as ordered. Nice. I got the pulled pork with applesauce and mashed potatoes. OH- almost forgot- but the freshly-baked dinner rolls were spot on! Both of us were pleased, and boy - we ate it ALL. Nothing went home with us - a sign we enjoyed it for sure. Of COURSE we'll be back. So, then, why the 4-stars? Man, of the 2 people workin' the bar, the young lady did the heavy lifting. The guy with her was slackin' off and man, the service suffered as the bar was FULL. So a whole demerit because he pretty clearly didn't want to be there and it showed. Oh, he was ok- when he chose to work. Most of the time he talked to fellow coworkers. One thing I can't take is service industry workers ignore their customers -and this guy did just that, sad to say. Hence the point off. All in all - a good meal, a fair price, and somewhat decent, but not stellar, service. read more

The atmosphere is very loud. Our server was a bit slow to start, but she improved as the night progressed. The rolls are delicious with the cinnamon butter. My meal was good, not amazing but I'd go again. But make sure you get on the wait list before you go, or you will end up waiting an hour or more. read more

We drive further to come to this location. The service is impeccable! Haven't had a bad service yet. Kudos to good management! The wait staff is not just friendly but also knowledgable of the menu and make good recommendations. Our steaks have always been cooked to perfection every time. Highly recommend this location even if you have to drive out of your way a bit, trust me, it's worth the trip. read more

The food is always tasty & hot. The homemade rolls are so delicious with that special butter. I love going there for the food and the local entertainment provided by the waiters and waitresses. They make you feel welcomed! read more

Great food, great service, great price. Only waited 10 minutes for a table when they thought it would be 20-30 which was great too

I went with my husband and our daughter and absolutely loved the food and everyone working at the restaurant was extremely polite and friendly. We got seated after only a few minutes and I can't remember her name but our waitress took excellent care of us. The manager Mike came over to make sure everything was going well for us and again he was very nice and friendly. We will absolutely be coming back very soon. The food was delicious, the prices were great, and we loved the atmosphere. read more

I would rate it 0 if I could. Yesterday was the third time and the last tome we eat there. They undercooked our steaks for the last time. read more

Consistently perfectly cooked steak with great sides and super friendly and attentive staff. Even when they are slammed, the staff are still friendly. They may check on you with bigger gaps in between but they are always cheerful and quick to respond once you make a request. Steak has been perfectly except once, which they corrected promptly and it was really a weird cut of steak, thicker on one side than the other. Absolutely love the ceasar salad, i get double. The other sides are quite good as well. Ribs are fall off the bone tender. And a good balance of sweet and salty. The place is fairly large on the inside and there is enough room between you and other tables, mostly, to forget you are near people some times. read more

Haven't been in acouple years. Texas Roadhouse in bloomingdale stepped it up. Hostesses was sweet and friendly. She asked us if we would like to choose our steaks while grabbing our warm bread and butter. Steven our server was knowledgeable and personable 10/10. Lighting was turned down to the perfect romantic cute date night. Margaritas were slightly on the sweeter side. Steak cooked perfectly. read more

It was my first time eating Texas Roadhouse at the Bloomingdale location. I joined the waitlist on their website at home. They gave me an estimated time of when my table was ready and just texted when I was here! This is a great system they use. Service is great. Our waitress was awesome. It seems like the staff have to do a dance in the middle of the restaurant. Maybe every hour? I'm not sure but most of them did not look too happy so it was awkward to watch. We have asked our steaks to be cooked medium rare but we got medium well. We probably could've asked for a new steak but we were hungry and just ate it. It still tasted great. I recommend everyone to top it with onions and Mushrooms and order a side of radish. The baked potatoes are great! I recommend to top it with everything. We probably will be back at this location! I hope that the steaks are cooked accurately to a customer expectations. A very important skill needed for a steak restaurant! read more

The only thing good about being cramped in was were were surrounded by nice people. Out of six meals, three were good, three were not. Waitress was great; prices were high for the low quality. Atmosphere was great if you like over crowded, loud and not such good food or drinks. read more

Let me just say the food is amazing here. Every time I come there is never a bad experience. The employees are great to really nice and never ran into a mean employee. The building looks really nice with Texas theme stuff and lots of things to explore. The reason why I give it a 4 is because the crowd is huge and a lot of times it is hard to get it but the food counts out the crowds. Check it out as soon as possible! read more

Always wanted to try this restaurant! I was in the area and stopped in. Was not disappointed! Service was so friendly. Food was delicious, loved the rolls, very good, no wonder everyone talks about them. The drinks were yummy. They dance too, it's so cute. Highly recommend. read more

2/23/26 We made a reservation today. Waitlist at 6:30pm for 11 people, and we get there on time. After I messaged HERE and went inside to make sure they received my text. The girl who is in charge as a greeter is rude and not a good fit for the role. She said, "We didn't message you yet, wait for it and go out to the double door" without a smile on her face! It's not even full, and a lot of people were waiting for us at that time. It's kinda cold outside but we waited outside as per her instructions. Waited for 30min no one even approaches us that will take a while we have to go inside and ask that girl again and explain that they are waiting for one customer to leave so that tables can be cleared. Having this experienced we just left. This is supposed to be my a birthday celebration for my Son and requested this place. read more

Got food poisoning here... yuck. Michaels customer service needs improvement. Steak looked low quality, too much fat and bad flavor. Rice tasted bad too. read more

Although I was highly irritated but sooo surprised that this location was packed on a Saturday night.. I take all the blame for not making a reservation but my party was unreliable so Im not making reservations just for people to cancel.. Anywhoo it was about a 50-60 minute wait and boy did we wait about every minute of that..and honestly it wasnt that bad because we ended up going across the street to cooper hawk to have drinks because even the bar was full at Texas Roadhouse. We sat down around 7 and out waiter was so cool I forgot his name.. but he was attentive and got us our bread and butter and out our drinks in right away.. that bread and butter had me in a chokehold!! How dar they come out all hot and toasted with that honey butter!!! If you know then YOU KNOW!!! I had about 4 rolls and I am not ashamed lol!! Anyway I ordered the 8oz thick cut NY strip and im so happy I did because I like my steaks with a little fat and it was perfect. It was cooked to perfection (medium rare for me) and was so tender. I had the seasoned rice with fresh veggies which was nothing but steamed carrots and broccoli... could I finish my meal with all that bread I ate? Nope but you better believe I ate all that steak and still not ashamed lol!! My party ordered the pulled pork dinner with fresh veggies and madhed potatoe and gravy, and the other had the Bacon cheeseburger with steak fries. I assumed everything was delicious since I heard no complaints. Oh we cannot forget about those Margarita's..I had the hurricane and it was great. I believe this restaurant was so busy because the chain is so spread apart. We went to the Bloomingdale Location and the next one closest to me is Mount Prospect. Either way it was definitely worth the wait and I will be back but this time with a reservation. I was toooo busy smacking my lips together to take pics, lmao.... read more

OMG! The food was amazing! Our waiter was attentive and the professionalism he showed was incredible. Speaking on the food first. Love when you first walk in, you can see the employees make the bread and bake them in the oven! Eating the bread warm with their sweeten whipped butter was delicious. Tastes very similar to Hawaiian bread. Always have a tough decision between the ribs and steak. This time around, went with the ribs. Damn! Those ribs were just as delicious as the warm bread! Couldn't find anything wrong with the food. Now the service itself. The waiter always knew when to refill us drinks and had the courtesy to tell us that one of the meals was incorrect and removed one of the charges. Never felt he was in a rush even though the restaurant was busy and saw him waiting on many tables. I made sure to tip him well!!! read more

the booths in the bar are tight with coats. would be nice if they had some sort of coat racks available. the chili was lukewarm. asked for it to be hotter and got a new bowl that was definitely from the same steam table and not any hotter but i let it go. maybe i should have said something and they would have done something maybe not, but if u ask for something to be hotter like this not an entree even i would expect it to come back heated up a bit. i don't get what the big deal was. ribs had a lot of smaller bones which i didn't care for and quite a bit of blubber. the dirty sodas were good, service was fine. ambience is ok too. those employees line dancing looked not very enthusiastic tho lol. seemed like too many employees on for the amount of business during lunch. i don't like feeling stared at so much with employees standing around is all. the rolls were amazing too of course. mini burgers were pretty dry. this place is nothing special. very chainy feel. not going back. read more

Went the restaurant for my wife's birthday. She loves this restaurantBut we were disappointed with the steaks. We die not get the exact steaks we chose. We took pictures before and after. The steaks were tough. We were very disappointed. The waiter was very good however and we left him a good tip. The rolls were not as good either they were cooked unevenly as well. Me wife and daughter were very disappointed as well. We will give the restaurant one more chance at a future date and if steaks don't improve it will be our last visit.... read more

The bread rolls are amazing with butter here. The service is great and all the staff are nice. They have a bar and a bunch of TV's. The only thing is I don't know what they use in there chill it makes me sick. Also the steak quality has gone down from when it first opened. read more

I enjoy a good steak as much as the next person. And they aren't bad here. They were mostly cooked correctly. The sides were good too. I switched one of my sides after ordering and the server warned me I might get the salad AND the green beans. And I did, with no extra charge. So what bothers me? A couple things. They are so busy and the customers are hard to deal with. The parking lot is so full at 3:30 on a Saturday that you have to park in the lot next door. No problem, I am going to have extra calories to walk off. But then you have to shove past people to get in the door with the rest of your party. You have to dodge servers to get to your table. It is so loud you can barely process questions about what you want to eat. And then they sing the dang birthday song to somebody on a saddle. I don't want to say I felt rushed, but I did. I kind of felt like a piece of meat, getting passed around and then cooked and chewed up. Maybe I'm just getting older, but when they ask if I want dessert, I already feel sick to my stomach from so much salty meat, and I just can't wait to get out the door. Ok, the rolls are delicious. But then you fill up and can't eat the $25 worth of beef you ordered. It's just too much, LOL. read more

I'll say this - don't let them seat you anywhere near the bathroom. Luckily on our visit the restaurant wasn't busy so we asked to be moved and they happily did. I'm not sure if it was an unfortunate person who wasn't feeling well, or they were having sewer issues, but it was a very unpleasant smell, so I would just avoid that entire area. The music is a bit on the too loud side of things, and funnily enough, not thirty seconds after I mentioned this to my husband, they turned it down slightly. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, no complaints. On to the food - My husband and I ordered the fried pickles for our appetizer, which come with either ranch or Canjun sauce, but the waitress didn't ask our preference and just brought the ranch. I asked about the Canjun sauce, and then she brought that as well. Both were ok. I feel like the breading on the pickles could have been crispier. We had a lot leftover that we took home, so we put them in the air fryer the next day and they were much better. We both got steaks for our main course. He got the New York Strip medium well and I got the filet medium. I feel like his steak was more well done and mine medium rare, but neither of us were bothered by this as we liked the end result. I knew it was a good steak because I never once reached for the steak sauce. As for the sides, I didn't care much for the rice, but the mashed potatoes with butter were delicious. As for the buns with the cinnamon honey butter, I could take them or leave them. They are good enough, but I don't like filling up on bread anyway, because then I have trouble finishing my steak. Overall we enjoyed our meal and did not regret coming here, so I'm sure we'll be back again sometime. Visit date: 10/23/24 read more

When you go to Texas Roadhouse, you know you're going to get a lot of food (most of it probably fried or filled with butter, or minimally with a lot of meat) at bargain prices, especially if you can do the early dine. This Texas Roadhouse is no different. There's a few things I like about this location that make it a little better than some of the other locations I've been to. The parking is more straightforward than some other nearby locations, which makes it easier to get in and out (some of them are in more of a square pattern around the restaurant, with a lot more cross traffic with pedestrians). The noise level was also fairly good, despite being very full (except when the servers sang happy birthday). The service was also very fast here, with an excellent waitress who predicted our needs in terms of rolls, butter, drinks, etc. so that we really didn't need to ask her to get anything for anything. As usual, the meats such as the sirloin steak and pork chop are very tenderful and flavorful, much better than expected given the price. The sides are done alright here, large in size but not necessarily anything special. The rolls come out piping hot and fluffy and are delicious with the cinnamon butter. Overall, a good location if you're looking to dine at Texas Roadhouse. The portion sizes are large and the prices are very fair. Good place to take the family or a few friends for a nice filling meal. read more

First time here, I was amazed! The food was delicious, the ribs were plentiful and tender, we also had the combo appetizer platter, also delicious! Servers were so accommodating and friendly! "Robert" he kept checking in in-spite of how busy it was -- and it was jammed! Love their dinner rolls. Most entertaining ware the girls line dancing - a great atmosphere and really awesome food!

This was my second time coming to this place (different location) I told my 6yr old how good the rolls were so we decided to have lunch here. It was a Monday afternoon and they weren't that busy but we still had to stand and wait for about 10mins before being seated. Once we were seated we ordered drinks and when the waiter brought them back we immediately placed an order for food. My daughter got the kids tenders and fries and I ordered potato's wedges, boneless wings and fries pickles. After 30mins I realized our food hadn't come yet. My 6yr old was complaining about being hungry and I was too especially being 6mths pregnant. I noticed the couple that was seated after us had been served their food (entrees) and we had even gotten our food (appetizers). I flagged down a male worker who said he wasn't the manager but tried to help anyway. 5mins later, our waiter was putting our food on the table. My food was cold like I expected, especially after how long I waited. Right away, I told him my food was cold and ask him could he just put it in the microwave because I was so hungry. I did not want to wait for a redo. 10 minutes later and still no food. At this point, I saw another worker, a female, and l flagged her down and asked was she the manager, she told me yes. I explained to her what was going on and she went to the back to get my food. She came back out with food that should've been served to a dog. I was so offended, especially with her being the manager that she had the audacity to serve me a plate that looked like the one she handed me. There was buffalo sauce all over the plate. You can tell the food was old after it had been sitting for so long. There was buffalo sauce, wasted all over my fried pickles, and some of the fried pickles were missing from the original plate. I was so upset and hungry that I was brought to tears. I covered my face with my hands to calm myself, and I asked her would she remake the fried pickles at least because they had sauce all over them. She said she will remake the fried pickles and when I went to grab one of the potato skins again, it was cold and the cheese was stiff. I told her to cancel everything. So in the end, I paid $12 and some change for my daughters overcooked chicken tenders and fries and my Coke Zero. I left there mind you six months pregnant still hungry and about to cry. I will never revisit this location again. Customer service was terrible. The manager should be ashamed of herself for thinking it was ok to bring me a plate like that. read more

Food is delicious , the service is seriously was indifferent may be that's not the right word but point is they did not care from the host telling us the wait is only 15 minutes to us waiting outside for 45 then when we went and asked again they said oh we forgot , really ? It was kids birthday . And then the service was so slow food was at the best average. The temperature outside was 60F and they were blasting AC , should I have brought a blanket ?

Texas Roadhouse is one of my hubby's favorite's so we decided to go in for lunch today. Arrived around 1 pm and seated right which was a positive. After waiting for 20 minutes without service, I went to the hostess informing her of this and she shared that we were seated in a section with no server. We were seated at table 221 when we should have been seated at 331. We then had to be relocated to the correct table which was on the opposite side waiting for a server. The hostess did apologize, letting us know that the manager was giving us an appetizer on the house for the inconvenience. Our new table met us with dirty napkins and is waiting for a good 10 minutes for our server. We ended up receiving our appetizer waiting another 10 minutes for our server to take our order at which time we decided to leave & take our business elsewhere. Terrible customer service!! read more

Texas Roadhouse - Both napkins were dirty. - Steakhouses Near Me - Bloomingdale, Illinois

Came here for the first time last week on Friday, and my husband and I had a pretty positive experience! When we walked in, there were many workers by the host desk waiting to seat people. One girl picked up the menus, asked us if we wanted to pick out a steak from a window that we wanted for our meal, and then sat us right away. She also asked if it was our first time here, and we responded yes. I think they're told to make conversation all the way up to when they seat customers at a booth because this poor girl was trying to make conversations until we got to the other side of the restaurant. She was so nice, but you can tell it was forced and pretty awkward. I wish the restaurant knew you didn't need to make your workers do that to show you have good customer service... When we sat down, we had a nice waiter who was attentive and personable. I ordered a Jamaican Cowboy margarita rimmed with sugar. It was absolutely amazing and so fruity; it contained Malibu Rum, Peach Schnapps, and orange and pineapple juices all mixed with their original margarita. I would come back here just for this!! Before we ordered food, we got a basket of biscuits, which were fluffy and good, but I'm not sure why there is so much hype about them because they were nothing special. I personally didn't like the cinnamon butter they gave us with it, but they were good with normal butter, just pretty plain. My husband agreed, too. These are complimentary and bottomless. For our entrées, we both ordered a pick two combo meal. I got the 6 oz sirloin with grilled shrimp, and my husband got the 8 oz sirloin with grilled shrimp. We both ordered our steak medium, but mine was more well, while my husband's was perfectly medium. It was good, though! One thing is that everything had coarse salt on it, which made it a bit too much. My steak was extremely salty, and my baked potato had so much salt on the skin that it looked like it snowed on it! My husband ordered the Caesar salad for one of his sides, which was delicious, and he also got the mashed potatoes. I loved his mashed potatoes because they had so much skin in them, but my husband wasn't a fan because he loves creamier mashed potatoes without skin... just personal preferences, but I would order the mashed potatoes next time. While writing this review, I also just realized I ordered veggies as my second side and never got them =( so my husband received his two sides, but I didn't receive my second one! The grilled shrimp was AMAZING, and we would both order these again! I would suggest ordering the pick 2 meal rather than ordering steak and a side of shrimp separately because for the side itself, 5 little shrimp is $8 extra if ordered separately. Speaking of prices, you get a lot of good quality food for the prices. Steaks with 2 sides are less than $30, and my margatita was about $8, which honestly isn't bad for how large it is. Everything seemed to be decently priced, but some of the sides aforementioned were a bit pricy. The menu is large, and anyone can find something on the menu. The restaurant was also clean and inviting, and the best part for me was they played country music the whole time! I truly loved the country-themed ambiance. Overall, we enjoyed the restaurant and would come again! read more

I traveled over 40 minutes today to get to this particular restaurant and the experience of feeling unwelcome was profound. I first made contact with the two young ladies working the first hostess desk and their behavior was completely unprofessional and unwelcoming. The side eyes and smirks definitely let me know I was interrupting their socializing with one another. Once I realized that this would be a preamble to the rest of my experience, I quickly ended my visit and went across the street to Outback Steakhouse (oldie but goodie). The service I received at Outback was the difference between night and day. The owner learned of my experience at Texas Roadhouse and just was a class act in every sense of the meaning. I was so happy to give my business to Outback after this experience. The young ladies at Texas Roadhouse should be sent to Outback for retraining. read more
