    Great customer service. Food was good but nothing was really hitting the spot for me, just tasted average. Except the bread with the cinnamon butter, that never disappoints!! However, my husband really enjoyed his steak. Fun environment & would still recommend once in a while.

    On a busy Friday evening, we finally got seated around 8:45pm after an hour long on their waitlist. They don’t take reservations. This restaurant has a fun, lively country themed ambiance. It was packed and loud music was on. Not a place to have serious conversations. Once seated, waitstaff immediately brought us their famous bread rolls with cinnamon butter. They were warm, savory and fresh from the kitchen. I ordered the 6 oz. Sirloin steak with baked sweet potato and chili as side dishes. All of us ordered chili as one of our side dishes. Steak was a thick cut so it was moist, cooked perfectly and seasoned well that I didn’t need to use steak sauce. Their famous chili was surprisingly good with real meat in it. The sweet potato was a generous portion, big enough to share. I ended up taking half of it home with leftover steak for another meal. We ordered two additional side dishes for a toddler. This confused our server and as a result, she didn’t bring out the chili for one of our table mates. When we asked her for status of the last chili, she immediately realized her mistake and rushed to bring out the chili for our table mate. She apologized for the error and made it up to us at the end. After the meal, we asked for boxes and some bread rolls to go. She surprised us by giving us a box of their tasty, fluffy and warm bread rolls and a big container of the cinnamon butter. Bread were fresh out of the kitchen and placed under heating lamps. There were over 12 bread rolls in the box. Needless to say, we gave her a big tip for providing good customer service. This restaurant offers good meals at affordable prices. Most waitstaff had a smile on their faces and thanked us for coming in as we were leaving after our meal. We felt welcome!

    A fine establishment with excellent food. You always know what you’re going to get here - delicious rolls, good meats, southern-style cooking. It’s as close as you’re going to get to authentic southern cooking from a franchise. It’s actually really tasty. The place is crowded, and purposefully so. Designed to keep the tables close together, centered around the sports bar. This particular location does NOT like large families. The hostess was very cantankerous with me when I asked for a spot for my medium sized family, then became angry when I, very directly, explained to her that I was not going to wait 2.5 hours for a table and that we’d be more than happy to squeeze into a booth designed for 6 plump full sized adults. Even though she took y request, she wouldn’t actually give me a seat until being pestered several times. Probably not the best person as hostess. The rest of the staff were very professional and nice, all very friendly except the hostess. The food is really good. For a franchised restaurant, it’s guaranteed to be above par - quite a long ways above average. We always live our food and our time together at this place.

    Our server was really good and attentive... We picked out our steak which was very nice... I got a 24oz Steak which was super yummy. Also their bread roll are excellent and that brown sugar butter 🤤. For a steak house the prices are very reasonable and will definitely come back.

    Popped in at 11 am opening on a Friday for lunch with a friend, haven't been here for a while and they've done a really nice remodel! Great flow and ambiance. The hostesses were very welcoming and friendly upon walking throughthe doors and we were able to get seated right away with a round of their fresh baked rolls and honey-cinnamon butter; our waiter (Eric) was super energetic, helpful with questions, and quick with our drink orders and then getting our food -checking in on refills and if everything was going well. I was given the wrong side and Eric was very quick to get it corrected and bring the correct one. My friend got the Chicken Critter Salad, which was a huge plate of fresh lettuce, tomatoes, chopped hard boiled eggs, lots of cheese, and crispy cut up chicken tenders; she noted that the chicken was still really juicy and perfectly crisp. I got the California Chicken which was a marinated chicken breast -fileted into a cute heart shape, covered in melty jack cheese, 1/2 a perfectly ripe avocado slided up, topped with a pico de gallo, and than drizzled with their honey lime sauce, it comes with a choice of two sides -I got the garden salad and seasoned vegetables...the rice was brought but the vegetables (steamed carrots and broccoli) came shortly after. We were able to get in and out -seated to paying check- in 50 minute. When we were leaving we noticed the place was quit full and there was now a pretty good line/wait (11:55-ish).

    Texas Roadhouse is a fantastic restaurant with delicious food, excellent service, and a lively atmosphere. The steaks are cooked to perfection, the portions are generous, and the sides are tasty. The staff is friendly and attentive, creating a great dining experience. The only downside is the noise level can get high. Overall, it's definitely worth a visit for a fun and delicious meal.

    Really good food. Personally I don’t like the yelling around, but personnel was really nice. I ordered the steak with shrimps combo, really full at the end 🤤 bread and vegetables are really good too!

    Tonight was mine and my husband's first time here. This place is AMAZING! Used their app to be put on wait list. Set it up at home and by the time we got there and pressed "Here" they called us in to check in. We were seated within 5 minutes. Lots of people outside waiting. We hand picked our steaks and we sat down. Server Christina, was the best server ever. She was on it! Very friendly and attentive. I had a margarita that was so delicious and my husband had a freezing cold 🍺. We got our food pretty quickly. Omg!!!!! Steaks were beyond delicious! THEE BEST! My hubby couldn't stop commenting on how good they were. Sides paired perfect with the entire meal.( loaded potato, baked potato, sautéed mushrooms and green beans) Would never go back to a 5 star restaurant for a steak again. This place will be our steakhouse from now on. Better than 5 star restaurants we've been to. The atmosphere is so inviting as well. Thankyou Texas Road House! Beyond excellent! All the way around!

    This place had delicious drinks & the food was so good. I ordered chicken with a mushroom cream sauce & fresh veggies. Received a side salad as well. The rolls are so good, soft & fresh! I could eat those with the garlic butter & be happy. Only issue we had was that we told our server(s) that we were celebrating a birthday & they were supposed to do the little celebration song, etc, but they "forgot". It was too late because we were leaving. Also, be prepared to WAIT!! AND you can't be seated until the WHOLE party is there. Ummm, kinda ridiculous & not necessary anymore. Overall, it was a good experience.

    First time here with my husband. Our waitress Pamela was awesome, making sure our order was perfect and always checking if we needed anything else. Great steak, cesar salad, and their bread and butter is amazing. We are definitely going back soon.
