Customer Review Summary

Overall, Texas Roadhouse offers a mix of great experiences and some disappointments. Many reviewers praised the friendly and attentive staff, noting that the service is generally exceptional. The food is a highlight, with delicious options like ribs and breads, although there were complaints about inconsistency in quality, particularly with certain dishes like pulled pork and burnt ribs. Despite being often busy, the kitchen manages to deliver food quickly, and the portions are substantial for the price. Some patrons appreciated the gluten-free options, but mentioned that most appetizers don't meet those dietary needs. A few reviews pointed out specific service issues, including forgotten orders and an unpleasant interaction with a staff member. Nevertheless, the overall sentiment leans positive, with many stating they would return for the good food and service.

As my first time in a Texas Roadhouse all I can say everything was perfect. Staff was remarkably friendly, everyone paid attention whether we have a good time or not. Food came fast and it was delicious, the total experience surpassed my previous expectations.

If you’re hungry and you know it…Texas Roadhouse will do the job. Usually crazy busy, but always surprising how fast and good the food is. Amazing the kitchen can keep up the quality with the quantity. I wish they still had the peanut shells all over the floor though. lol

Really was not impressed. My ribs were burnt and pretty dry. The fries were subpar. Maybe I should have had a steak but nonetheless, if it’s on the menu it should be decent. The pull pork sandwich was not seasoned and the bland overall. The guys enjoyed their country fired steaks. Fried pickles and bread were apparently good according to the husband and friends! They have gluten free options which are the steaks and meat dishes. Most of the appetizers are not gluten free.

Very Good Food! It was super delicious and very fulling. The ribs are very good, including the bread buns with the butter. The butter had a cinnamon taste to it and with the hot bread it was so delicious. The ribs easily fall off the bone, they are soft with a crunchy spots,not very chewy. The service was great, our waitress was very nice, attentive. The wait time for our food was a bit long, but I get it as there was many people in the restaurant and definitely worth it as the food was very good. My family and I got very full that we ended up taking half our plates to go, as we couldn't finish it. For four people it was a bit more than $100 but for the amount of food you get and the quality, it was worth it. Would go back again

Ordered and got my food, but not all of it. I had to remind them that they forgot to give me the rest of my order. The mash potatoes with gravy were very good by the way. But I hope they don't forget next time.

i’m saying 4/5 that way you guys read my review i want to start off by saying kyle was awesome 👏🏼 the best server ever.. i’ve been to Texas Roadhouse many times but on 12/15 I experienced for the first time a rude employee i ordered a caesar salad with bacon bits & avocado and when it was brought out to me it was plain i let the lady know that my salad was supposed to have bacon bits & avocado she rudely said you have to talk to your server about that i said i did let him know she looks at the paper and grabs the salad and leaves and while she’s leaving i turned over to look at her just to see her mouthing things, rolling her eyes & nodding her head . i couldn’t get her name because she was just someone who brought out my food but she has ginger hair & looks like she’s in her 30’s horrible lady!!!! but Kyle was awesome & food was great .
