Texas
Roadhouse
is
one
of
the
most
consistent
experiences
of
any
chain.
Pretty
much
every
time
we
eat
here
(any
location)
We
have
a
pretty
good
meal,
great
service,
and
a
good
atmosphere.
It's
so
consistent
in
fact
that
will
continue
to
patronize
Texas
Roadhouse
in
the
future.
Unfortunately,
this
was
the
first
real
miss
that
we've
experienced
at
a
Texas
Roadhouse.
They've
been
so
good
before,
that
it
pains
me
to
leave
a
poor
review,
but
hopefully
my
honesty
will
help
them
recognize
some
opportunities
and
be
better
prepared.
Granted,
the
place
was
packed
on
an
early
Friday
afternoon.
That
may
be
the
catalyst
for
the
poor
experience
that
we
had,
but
they
are
a
business
and
being
busy
should
not
be
an
excuse
for
subpar
execution.
As
always,
the
service
was
great.
Staff
was
exceptionally
attentive.
The
fact
we
had
more
than
one
manager
dropping
by
throughout
our
time
there
to
check
in
on
us.
I'm
not
one
to
complain,
so
I
didn't
have
much
to
say
at
the
time.
Though
I
did
share
a
couple
of
concerns
both
with
the
server
and
one
of
the
managers
toward
the
end
of
our
meal.
As
I
said
service
was
great.
What
wasn't
great
was
the
length
of
time
we
waited
for
our
meal.
Honestly,
it
was
really
busy
and
no
staff
member
was
sitting
around,
they
were
all
hustling,
so
this
could
be
forgiven.
What
couldn't
be
forgiven
is
that
the
food
arrived
cold.
Very
cold.
As
if
it
had
been
sitting
in
a
window
waiting
to
be
picked
up
for
quite
some
time.
Meanwhile,
the
entire
staff
is
doing
the
required
line
dance
in
the
middle
of
the
restaurant.
I
totally
get
brand
standards
and
brand
USPs,
but
on
a
busy
Friday
afternoon
when
you
are
barely
keeping
up
with
delivering
food,
maybe
the
manager
should
have
some
leeway
to
make
an
exception
or
to
delay
something
like
the
Texas
Roadhouse
line
dance
ritual?
Just
a
thought.
Anyway,
the
food
wasn't
just
cold
it
was
very
bland.
Even
the
steak
lacked
any
real
flavor.
The
side
order
of
ribs
prices
at
$9.99
actually
made
me
chuckle
at
first.
I
was
hesitant
to
eat
them
because
I
wasn't
sure
whose
ribs
they
were.
Were
these
Chihuahua
ribs?
Or
maybe
a
raccoon?
They
may
have
been
the
smallest
ribs
I've
ever
seen.
Maybe
three
or
four
oz
of
ribs
for
$10?
Real
lack
of
value
on
this
visit.
I
think
I'll
skip
these
next
time.
The
last
piece
of
the
broken
puzzle
was
the
atmosphere.
It
lived
up
to
the
roadhouse
name
and
then
some.
About
halfway
through
waiting
for
it
for,
the
music
became
insanely
loud,
shout-across-the-table
loud.
And
a
real
roadhouse,
one
with
a
live
band,
this
would
have
been
expected
and
maybe
even
enjoyable.
For
an
early
Friday
dinner
and
a
chain
restaurant,
felt
more
like
somebody
let
their
kid
loose
and
he
found
the
volume
control
for
the
whole
place.
To
make
matters
worse,
I
think
it
may
have
been
Texas
Roadhouse's
proprietary
line
dance
song
that
was
playing
so
loudly,
but
it
was
stuck
on
a
loop.
Played
twice
before
they
lying
danced,
mixed
in
a
little
I
think
Joe
Diffie,
then
play
it
again
three
times
at
maximum
volume
for
somebody
finally
turned
it
down
only
to
have
it
turned
up
again
about
10
minutes
later.
It
eventually
came
down
to
a
tolerable
level,
but
we
were
just
about
on
our
way
out
at
that
point.
As
I
said
it's
beginning
of
this
review,
Texas
Roadhouse
has
been
the
most
consistent
chain
restaurant
we
go
to.
In
fact
it's
one
of
the
only
chain
restaurants
we
continue
to
visit.
Even
with
this
off
the
mark
experience,
we
will
continue
to
eat
at
Texas
Roadhouse.
We'll
probably
even
be
back
to
this
location.
I
believe
this
was
a
one
off
and
really
just
a
bad
day.
The
service
was
great
and
I'm
sure
food
in
the
atmosphere
will
match
up
in
the
future.
Hopefully,
this
will
provide
some
insight
for
the
team
and
they
can
take
a
little
more
control
over
the
very
manageable
mini
disasters
that
colored
our
last
visit.
