  • To say that Texas Roadhouse enjoys a steady stream of returning customers and soon-to-be regulars alike would be an understatement. Since the chain opened its first location's doors way back in 1993, carnivores across the country - and beyond - have made it their go-to getaway for all things meaty.
    While its entrees' prices may vary, depending on the quality of a cut and the size of a guest's order, the red meat staple's menu remains pretty affordable across the board. But how exactly does a chain known for its delicious, quality food manage to keep its prices so low? Well, we finally know why Texas Roadhouse is so cheap.

      Ive been there a couple of times and i loved it, i would go there a lot more if it wasn't for the insane atmosphere,i will have a sub par steak and meal if i can have some peace and quiet,both of the times i have been there it seemed like it was the chow hall at San Quentin so no,the other night me and my friend went there at 9 hoping it would be a little more manageable and we didn't even try to go in, we are planning on doing 10 pm soon and see what thats like,lol.

    I travel a lot around the US, and Texas Roadhouse is always a good bet. I know I'm going to get a consistently good meal at one (at least I have so far). Yeah, I've had better steaks elsewhere (for a premium price), but I know what to expect there and have never been disappointed. Plus, I like the atmosphere. And the rolls and cinnamon honey butter. What a great starter.

    The Roadhouse near us (Ashburn, VA) is a mess. They opened it during COVID, so they made the seating super cramped because half of it had to stay empty at the time. Now they just left it that way so it just totally sucks inside. I'll get takeout, but that's it. Our local store is trash for dine in.

    I've never eaten at TRH and the closest one to me is about 45 miles away (don't know why). Having seen the prices for their 20 oz rib eye steak with 2 sides at about $32 that's about what I expected to pay. Is it cheap? Nope. Are you paying for quality of the meat cooked to your specification? I would say you're paying for the expertise of the butcher and the cook so, yes. Would I pay this price? I would only do so if I were visiting from out of town.

      With beef prices these days, that's not a bad price. At the Vince Young Steakhouse in Austin TX a 22oz bone in ribeye is $64 and a 16oz one is $56 and that's BEFORE sides!

    • @Comeback180

      Lingering gives less profits so rushing customers is part of they're focus.
      That's why I don't do sit down restaurants much anymore I go through drive thru or pick up the food to avoid getting tipped.
      I always found it weird how you pay for your food, drinks, taxes and then at the end your pressured for tips.
      I did read about that in the customer reviews very loud and noisy.

    Was there 2 wks ago, 2 people got rib eye steak, no alcoholic drinks, bill was $63.00. Ordered plain baked potato, came loaded (wasn't charged), but potato was rotten in the middle. They use way too much salt and steaks are not that tender. Way over rated, would rather pay more and get a better meal somewhere else.
