The only reason they get 2 stars is for the bread and friendly servers. On a busy Saturday night we waited an hour for our table then another hour and half for our food...good thing we didn't come hungry because I wouldn't have lasted long. read more

Made the mistake of ordering to go. Couldn't get a human to talk to. Took forever and the killer ribs hardy steaks song was terrible once forget about 5 times. 10 plus minutes on hold. Awesome read more

Texas Roadhouse is our go-to American chain restaurant, and I am not always the biggest fan of American chain food. The place does get packed, but it's conveniently located close to our home. When my husband and I are starving and are in need of our steaks, we come here. The prices are very reasonable and affordable, and better yet, the portions are enormous! They start your table off with freshly baked rolls that have a mild sweetness to them. As if these weren't addicting enough, they are accompanied by cinnamon butter. Yum! You get 2 huge, awesome sides with almost every entree. The chili, loaded baked potato, sweet potato, and house salad sides are perfect. We also like to order an appetizer of spicy boneless buffalo chicken. These always hit the spot. As far as the staff, they are ok. Don't expect first-class service here. This place is all about the basic human instinct for steak :) read more

Went here early on Friday evening, there was a moderate amount of families dining, and the bar was full. It seemed like we were the only table our waitress had because of her frequent check ins that started to become annoying. Our food was expected of a casual dining establishment, worth the money and cooked correctly. I had the 16oz ribeye with mashed potatoes and a cesar salad. Even the manager came to check on our dining experience. It wasn't my first time at a Texas Roadhouse but the others in my party were new to the scene. He wanted to ensure their first visit was a pleasant one. The staff cared for the service they provided and we were lucky enough to watch the staff so some square dancing. Not the most enthusiastic group, but I'm sure later in the night with the music turned up and more guests it can be quite the show. 5 stars for them doing providing the service I expected flawlessly! I will be back again! read more

Went on a Wednesday for the $9.99 sirloin special. It really is a great deal. You get fresh rolls, two sides and a 11.5 ounce steak that is very tasty. I have since been back three times for the same deal and found that the cooking of the steaks are a little inconsistent. I always order my steaks medium, but I'm not too picky about it. if you are, I would suggest ordering it one step toward the rare side so they don't overcook it. You can always send it back and they can give it a quick sear. The waitstaff and service are good and I have never had to wait for a table. This is a steakhouse and i have only gone there for steaks. It would not be my first choice for seafood or anything but steak and ribs. read more

I really want to say good things about my visit to the Cranston, RI Texas Roadhouse on Sunday June 16, 2019 but it is hard. We had a party of 8 and called ahead to do call ahead seating. We arrived a few minutes later and waited more than an hour for a table and we got there around 11:45. The problem was not the crowd it was that the manager seemed to have no clue it was Sunday and Fathers Day and did not schedule near enough staff. Half the restaurant was empty because they did not have the staff to handle the tables. That being said they had more than 6 people at the reception desk who could have and should have been serving instead of standing at the reception desk. Poor planning on the managements part should not have become an inconvenience to us. Get better! read more

Ordered to go and Waited45 minutes for it to be brought out. I text multiple times and even called the restaurant to let them know I was there. The system does not work and I shouldn't be waiting that long. And to top it off my order was wrong and the food was cold. read more

Great bar. Always speedy service. Seabass our waiter was awesome. Excellent deals on Wednesday nights.

Well they never let me down. After swearing that I would never return to this establishment again after they missed major items out of our last 2 takeout meals, my wife (craving some ribs) convinced me that 3 was a charm. WAS SHE EVER WRONG. When she returned home with our order, the well done roadkill wasn't well done, the brown gravy side wasn't there, I ordered rice and salad with my meal and then a bowl of chili which I paid for but didn't receive. My wife requested extra BBQ sauce which we didn't receive. Why do we go they the bother of ordering what we want on that app if they are gonna give us what they feel like giving us. I gave it another chance and now I am certain I will never spend another dime in this place. My bill was $39.99 for the pleasure of being disappointed. I will not suggest this place to anyone I care about and will warn the people I don't care about because I don't wish this treatment on my worse enemy. Texas Roadhouse and I are finished, thru, finite, haste Mayana. read more

FREAKIN AWESOME. They serve you unlimited sweet rolls with this cinnamon butter that is so achingly good, you'll come back just for that! On top of the rolls, they have this one-of-a-kind awesome Italian dressing. It's a little on the honey mustard side but it's delish. As for the BBQ, I can't comment too much. I tried a rib and it was really good. i had the chicken tenders and they reminded me of the chicken tenders from Bugaboo Creek or Chilis. Very good. Update 4/4/08: Went back today and it wasn't as good as good as I remember. It took the waitress 20 minutes to take our drink order, and the "boneless buffalo wings" are just the very uniquely styled chicken strips with buffalo sauce on them. Those chicken strips are not meant to be mixed with buffalo sauce, just not the way they were made, dude. On the other hand, the buffalo sauce was awwwwsome by itself so I'd recommend just getting the bones if you want to try it. I was also kind of impressed that the big ass strawberry lemonade that my friend got (and i mean BIG ASS) was only 80 cents more than my soda (2.19 and 2.99. That's something noted tonight, their drinks are HUGE. Still loving on the rolls and italian dressing though. Oh and I tried some mashed potatoes and they were the bizzalls (good). read more

I've been coming to this Texas Roadhouse several times a year since it first opened 10 years ago or so. I don't think once in that time that I've had a bad meal. We also have ordered takeout on several occasions. On this particular Saturday Night, there was no wait time even at 5:45PM, which is getting close to peak dinner time. Sabrina took good care of us, and kept the drink and bread refills coming. I had the 12 ounce prime rib, and it was melt in your mouth as usual. The mashed potatoes were nice and creamy, without any of the extras. To top it off, I had a nice house salad, and plenty of food left over for another day. My wife really enjoyed her rib eye steal as well. Is there anything I would improve? Not that much. Maybe an appetizer or two that is not fried. They also try to upsell you on sides like "loaded" mashed potatoes or grilled onions. Make sure you read the menu to avoid sticker shock.. A bigger dessert menu and some specials would be good. Still,I think Texas Roadhouse is the best of the casual chains such ad Outback and Longhorn. read more

So we come to Texas Roadhouse because we are craving a steak and because we always have trusted their service in the past but honestly this is probably the worst restaurant I have been to yet. We arrive at 8:40 pm and get seated then we have to wait like 10 or 12 mins for the bread. We waited about 30 mins for the salad, then server comes over and asks if we would like more bread. Comes back 3 mins later to inform us that the bread is completely gone... Steaks finally came and mine was cooked great but my buddies steak was not cooked correctly. His was very under cooked. Probably won't be coming back to this location again, but thank goodness I live in Virginia! read more

I have to give them an extra star for the superb service received by a lovely waitress named Bree the other night. She hit it out of the park and made this place one of my favorite places to visit for a steak! read more

So my friends took me here to give it a shot and laughed at me because the first thing I noticed was the sign that said there was going to be peanuts on the floor and was ready to leave before we even got in. However, they convinced me to go in and I was glad I did. First off they had magaritas for $2.50 auto matic win in my book, second the rolls they brought to the table were awesome, or waitress was great, and the food wasn't bad at all. Once I looked past the peanuts in the floor, which actually weren't to messy, I was not disappointed at all. Def someplace worth checking out. read more

I like the food here, I like the beer. I really enjoy a frosty mug of nice keg beer. YUM. This particular store doesn't really do it for me as far as the staff is concerned. There is one closer to me that I frequent and seem to have a better experience at. I was at this one because we were at someones house and it was close by. Definitely nothing wrong with anyone there but I always get friendlier, better service at another one. read more

Wild West Wednesdays are the best deal in town. For $9.99 you can order an 11oz Sirlion Steak dinner along with 2 sides. I've never had a bad steak here. Highly recommended. The service is good and the managers are out walking around making sure everyone's dinner is as ordered. read more

It's a chain, and I've said this before, but I enjoy it. The atmosphere is fun and friendly, while the food has that nice southern comforting flavor. I have one gripe and its with the CEO. You make these poor servers dance yet you don't pay them any extra for it? We all know servers make far less than minimum wage. Rare that they get vacation, sick time and benefits. Don't be a cheap SOB, Kent Taylor. read more

All I can say is that Texas Roadhouse has THE most mouthwatering, fall-off-the-bone rack of ribs I've ever had. Too bad I'm Vegetarian now otherwise I'd go there again but the last time I went here I didn't have any problems with the service whatsoever. I don't know what everyone's fuss is all about, this place is great. The key is to get there EARLY. I went at around 4:00 before the line got too out of control. The most I ever had to wait here is about 10 minutes, tops. The waitress/waiters that I had were very pleasant and never "advertised" me, just made sure I got what I asked for and that I was enjoying my time there. I'd highly recommend the ribs with the mashed potatoes. Delicious! read more

I think if I can give them a "0" on rating, I will!!! Ordered thru online or curb side pickup. Paid for 5 entries and 1 dozen of bread and only received 3 entries when I got home. Hungry kids waiting for food then realized the two missing meals belong to my two kiddos. So I called and told them half my order was missing. So went to pick up again and when I received my order I told them I will check to make sure everything was there. Sure enough food was missing again. By the time we get home, almost none of the entrees are edible. Steak was rough, pork and chicken was dry!!! Only thing was good is the salad. I think I'm done with them. We used to go there a lot because kids love going there. But no more after this experience read more

One of my new favorite restaurants. First they bring you a basket of warm soft rolls with a cinnamon butter spread on the side which is AMAZING. The restaurant can be a bit messy with peanut shells all over the floor but honestly it doesn't make a difference to me, once you sit down and eat it's easy to look past it and I feel like it adds character to the joint! Sometimes this place can be a little loud they will crank up the music and some of the waiters and bartenders will start line dancing in the aisles. It can be pretty cool at times but distracting if you're trying to carry on a conversation with your date. My favorite meal by far was the Smothered Chicken which was a juicy chicken breast with cheese melted on top with onions and mushrooms. It comes with a choice of two sides and I got the loaded baked potato and the green beans (which were kinda salty so I didn't eat them, the potato was delicious though) Also it's best to call ahead on the weekend as this place fills up pretty quickly, there have been times my boyfriend and I couldn't get past the front door because there were so many people waiting that we ended up going elsewhere. read more

Came on a Wednesday night and got their sirloin steak special for $9.99. This consists of an 11 oz sirloin steak, which you can pick out yourself, and two sides of your choice. (Normally costs $15.99) We were greeted, allowed to pick our steaks, and then seated. The waitress took our drink order and served us fresh baked rolls with cinnamon butter. I could have eaten just the rolls and been happy because these are so yummy. The sides I ordered were mashed potatoes and green beans. These were pretty good, especially the green beans, but the steak was the star. It was big and tender and juicy. It was surprisingly delicious. I would come back for this steak dinner again! read more

Great Bread and Service gonna try BBQ chicken and loaded mashed potatoes the bread melts in your mouth mmmm delicious Great Service from Molly &Destiny read more

Texas Roadhouse - Great Place Destiny the Greeter has Great Hospitality - Barbeque Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

My husband and I use to frequently order to go once a week at least. We stopped in October after I watched snotty girls working up front get into a cat fight over helping the to go girl get the food for the three people she had in line. Fast forward to tonight where we decided to try again. They forgot my sides. I called they offered to have me drive back. No, you messed up. I got an I'm sorry which is the reason for the second star but I'm all done. It's too hard to order to go food and get it correct. read more

Friendly bartender. Draft selection isn't good at this location. The Chili is the worst I've ever had in any restaurant - homemade with what? Catsup? The tiny meat cubes look like and then taste just as I imagine dog food would. Impossibly awful. read more

Party of 8 Server Jimmy was great and my party is a handful, he rolled with it and was a great sport, he was on top of our every need. The food was excellent our orders ranged from salad to steak Evey thing was cooked to our liking. My one complaint is so full we could not get dessert! read more

Ribs and steak fries app was perfect size. Grilled chicken good well. Nice tangy sauce. Guiness in a can. Waitress was a little dumb. Good size portions. I don't like line dancing or the birthday song and got both. Overall satisfied read more

We ordered the appetizer combo with Buffalo wings, fried pickles and rattlesnake bites and the fried pickles came out dripping grease, and the wings was freezing cold. Our loaded sweet potatoes came out unloaded and the potato not cook..... The waitress was amazing and had to go back to the kitchen 5 times - 7times and the manager NEVER came to the table and apologized for the quality of the food or even to make sure we was alright, absolutely terrible!!!! read more

Honestly for spending over $100 for a take out order and only receiving one roll per order is a little ridiculous just saying SMH

If I could leave less than 1 star I would. We entered right after they opened thinking it would be slow, we have younger kids and they get impatient. It was 20 minutes before our server even came over to say hello, and that was fleeting. Five minutes after that she finally came to take our drink order. She actually came back to take our drink order a second time because she forgot she had done so in the first place. The drinks finally came out about 5 minutes later at which time she finally took out appetizer and meal order. Ten minutes passed and she came back to our table with no food still and asked if we were ready to place our food order. We actually had to tell her that she already took our order. Fifteen minutes after that my family went out to sit in the car while I get the food to go. Somehow part of my appetizer came out with a piece of paper sitting in the middle of it, the piece of paper that tells them what to make. It literally took another 20 minutes for my food to be prepped to go and it was incredibly wrong. I did speak with the manager but it will really make me think twice about returning. This is sad as this location has been quite good in the past. read more

Got takeout for Father's Day. My son bought dinner take out. They did not give 3 sides and a 16 once ribeye steak. I was pissed and waited 6 weeks before I went back. Dine in. When I brought this to the attention of a manager, I was given a $15 coupon toward an entree. When I told her that the ribeye cost more than the coupon and ask for another $15 coupon. My request was denied. I use to go at least twice a month. No more. They have lost my son's and my business for life. I bet if the head manager or owner knew of this, they would gladly give me another $15. Loose $11,000 of business a year instead of giving me a lousy $15. Bad business. The net is that if you do curbside pickup, make them go through every container in front of you to ensure you get all of your meal. They are usually very good at double checking take out/curbside. But that was not our experience. Good luck getting a full dinner! And skip ordering on holidays; I guess they are not staffed for the volume of customers. Don't let them ruin a Father's Day on you, like they did to me!! read more

Texas Roadhouse's claim to fame are steaks and let me tell you, they know how to do it well. If you don't like steak, their chicken is also to die for, especially their chicken fingers. The wait staff is very pleasant and our waitress was very knowledgeable in the menu and alcoholic beverages. I have been to this specific location multiple times and every time, it keeps getting better. I would definitely go back again. All in all this restaurant has great atmosphere and is the place where you can throw peanut shells on the ground. read more

So far every time we come everything goes smooth, the servers are friendly, the food is delicious and plenty. I would definitely recommend to anyone in R.I. For a chain restaurant is pretty good. Make sure if its only a couple to ask for one appetizer because they are huge specially the chilli-cheesefries. read more

I am actually writing this while I have been waiting for the bartender to refill me beer for over 15 minutes. I finished the over cooked steak and the dry potato and still no second beer. there are 3 people behind the bar and no one is paying attention to my empty plates and empty beer mug. the NY Strip was ordered medium rare, it was over done to at least medium, but very dry, pink but no juice. The bartenders this evening are absolutely awful. No service, no follow up, no nothing. I will avoid this location if these people are behind the bar again. read more

First of all, we ordered take out at this place. When we went to pick up the food, we drove home only to realize that three orders where missing from our package. We drove back and spoke to the manager, explained the situation and he was able to find the rest of our order. By the time, we got home, our food was cold and all the chicken burgers that we ordered were horrible. The meat was hard,dry, you name it, it was horrible. The only thing that salvaged it was the ribs which were okay. I have to say that this was one of the worst experiences that I've ever had eating out. If your looking to find a nice meal, do yourself a favor and find another place. read more

A series of unfortunate events.... this used to be a great place to eat, food quality and service, however they are more about cutting corners than satisfying the customer. We have been here multiple times regulars, the last several times we've had to send a steak back to the kitchen mostly because it was over cooked, these last few times it took the kitchen so long to get the food out that the other guests at dinner were done with their meals, do they wait and eat cold dinner or eat and leave the one left to eat alone. The meal wasn't compensated nor were we given any additional compensation to get us back. The waitress asked if we wanted to take bread or peanuts home. Really? I can't get you a steak but maybe you can take something else home. read more

Had another great meal. The staff is fun. The menu has something for everyone. The bread is bangin. Love that place. Good food. Reasonable price and Fun. Bring a friend and tell the waitstaff it's their birthday......surprise read more

This place is so much fun! Love the atmosphere!!! Love the food! They always give you so much that you leave there so stuffed! My boyfriend and I love going here on a Friday or Saturday night! Only downfall! Is it's not open later than 10 which is such a bummer! But I won't stop going! The food is too good to pass up! Love the bread they give us with that sweet dip, my mouths watering just talking about it! Anyways! a place to try! read more

Why tell me to show up at a certain time for pickup if the food isn't going to be brought out until 40 minutes later. I can get the same mediocrity at the Wendy's across the street seconds after I order it. read more

Made reservations, glad we did! Some other Roadhouse locations won't let you. We had a group of 9, so 2 waitresses, very attentive, extremely friendly, Sarah was awesome! We took advantage of free appetizer offer when you sign up on the Texas Roadhouse app. I did sirloin and shrimp with loaded fries, and green beans, I would rather have had salad instead of beans, but still good. Everyone was satisfied and happy; 4 teenage boys, my daughter and 3 other adults. Sarah answered all questions, offered us beer option not even on the menu, and explained local brewery. Good choice, glad we chose this one, I will say location is a bit to be desired, Cranston is a bit of a "run-down" area in some spots... read more

What a disappointment with the Cranston location. Horrible service. Disgusting location. Even worse steak. Go to Warwick or Dartmouth.
