Great food. We got the most accurate degree of steak doneness we got in the past few years in any Texas Roadhouse franchise. Medium is medium. Medium well is medium well! It was a huge surprise for us as we have been used to the instability of TRH’s steak doneness. Better than the one in Bay Area. The service is also great! The waitress check upon us regularly. There is wait even for Thursday lunch, so be aware of that!

The restaurant was crowded. Food was ok. The fried pickles and snake bites were crazily salty, almost inedible. Breads and butter, and house salad, loaded mash, fresh veggies were good. Green beans were overcooked like canned one. Meats were decent. Drinks were good. Highly recommend the mango blended one. Friendly service.

I came here for the Rolls with Cinnamon Butter and Cactus Blossom with my family. Honestly, both of those were so good! The Cactus Blossom is better than Outback’s Blooming Onion by not being too greasy and salty. As for the Rolls with Cinnamon Butter, it was not too sweet but had a good flavor still. Speaking of my entree, I ordered a Country Fried Sirloin as I like Chicken Fried Steak. To be fair, it was tasty by being saucy, tender, and crispy at the same time. Regardless of the sides I ordered with that however, the Seasoned Rice was actually flavorful whereas the Loaded Mashed Potatoes were okay. Overall, I give Texas Roadhouse a 9.5/10. It’s a good restaurant to visit with family and friends!

Went to Texas Roadhouse for our anniversary. Wait, it was about 10 minutes, if that for just the 2 of us, but man, were they packed! When you first walk in, you see the beautiful cuts of meat on display, mostly their 20oz ribeye. Staff was really friendly, and we were seated promptly. Waitress was there within a minute to start the drinks and orders. Appetizers came out in a timely manner. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. We ordered the potato skins with ribs and fries to start. The main course came out, and the wife ordered the 12oz salmon, I got the 20oz ribeye. Of course we shared. Salmon was nicely seasoned with spices and was light and flakes. Not doused in glaze like some places. Her sides were just as delicious. Mine was cooked the way I liked it, Medium-Well to well done. It was cooked great with your standard salt, pepper, butter, and got onions on top. Did not require steak sauce to enjoy it tasted so good. The baked potato was fresh and fully loaded, and the chili was awesome too with onions and cheese added. We added the shrimp skewer along with it, the zesty dip was great too, flavor and just a little kick to let you know it was there. Our waitresses had shift change, but both were excellent. All our drinks were full. They had perfect timing to ask if we needed anything or refills because we all know some places get overbearing. Atmosphere was nice, lighting was decent. Able to catch glimpses of the local sports here and there. Overall it was great and will return again.

Very welcoming and friendly staff. They were quick to get our orders in and drinks and appetizers came out quickly. There was a 45 min pause before dinner came out. Food tasted great and cooked perfectly! Highly recommend for big group as we were a party of 12 plus 2 infants.

My girlfriend & I first time going to Texas Roadhouse. We here at 4pm time. When we enter, the parking are limits. I have to drive around to find parking space. It's ridiculous! Few moments we waiting 15 minutes to get our seat taken. Then, one the waitress ask us pick your own steak in the case. My girlfriend decided off the case but, I choice mind on the meat case. The only I see is all bone-in ribeye only 20oz but, no other different steak as sirloin or filet in the case. While we seating, another waitress arrive & serve free bread with cinnamon-honey butter. The bread very good. While our waitress told us she taken her lunch hour & told our food be ready about 10 to 15 minutes. While it's been 45 minitues & other guests there food about 10 minutes. I have to calling different waitress where our food at?! Before using my untensil, the knife is not clean. Ask for another knife but, still dirty again! When I order medium rare 20oz ribeye steak, some are not medium rare. It's most likely rare! The meat where fat white marbling. However, the season is good with grill mark but half I ate not satisfied because my steak is rare & too many fat marbling! The only satisfied is my girlfriend dish okay from her but not mind. The atmosphere we don't like because it's very dark & hard to see walking around inside with the full house of people. The waitress leave off & another waitress ignore us our services. I first, this was famous & good food reviews but, I was wrong about Texas Roadhouse. I have wrost experience this place! I am disappointed & waste my money here! I will not coming this place or another Texas Roadhouse again!

Can't go wrong here for a quick dinner date. It's always been decent and deserves a food coma after every time. Always yummy.
