Texas Roadhouse, American steakhouse in West Knoxville, United States
Texas Roadhouse is a steakhouse in Knoxville that serves hand-cut steaks, ribs, and classic American comfort food at wooden tables. The portions are generous and the menu covers a wide range of grilled and Southern-style dishes.
Texas Roadhouse was founded in Kentucky in the early 1990s and grew steadily across the country over the following decades. The Knoxville location opened as part of that broader national expansion.
The dining room is decorated with Western themes and country touches that cover the walls and ceiling. Staff members perform coordinated line dances during service, which often surprises first-time visitors.
The restaurant has free on-site parking, which makes it easy to reach by car. Reservations are a good idea for larger groups, especially on weekend evenings when wait times tend to be longer.
Every steak is cut to weight by an in-house butcher working inside the restaurant, not at a central facility. This means each cut is prepared on the same day it is served, which is unusual for a chain of this size.
