Texas Roadhouse, American steakhouse in Pasadena, United States
Texas Roadhouse is an American steakhouse in Pasadena, California, serving hand-cut steaks, ribs, and chicken dishes prepared daily with fresh ingredients. Most side dishes and sauces are made from scratch in the kitchen rather than sourced from ready-made products.
The chain was founded in 1993 and grew from a single restaurant into a nationwide network over the following decades. The Pasadena location follows the same kitchen standards that were set at the very beginning.
The dining room is decorated with Western-style items that give the place a ranch-like feel. Between serving tables, staff sometimes perform line dances, which adds a relaxed and playful touch to the meal.
The restaurant offers a digital waitlist and an option to order ahead through its website or app, which can help reduce waiting time. Takeout is also available for those who prefer to eat somewhere else.
Every table receives a bucket of unshelled peanuts as soon as guests sit down, offered free of charge as a snack while they wait. The empty shells are traditionally tossed on the floor, which is considered part of the casual experience.
