Texas Roadhouse, American steakhouse restaurant in Houston, United States
Texas Roadhouse is an American steakhouse in Houston, serving grilled steaks, ribs, and chicken alongside house-made sides and bread rolls baked on-site. The dining room is large and casual, with wooden decor and a menu built around grilled meats.
The chain was founded in 1993 by Kent Taylor in Clarksville, Indiana, with a focus on affordable Texan-style steaks and barbecue. It grew steadily over the following decades, opening locations across many US states.
Many locations feature a corner called Willie's Corner, dedicated to country musician Willie Nelson and decorated with photos and memorabilia. This small display reflects the chain's connection to Southern American music traditions, which visitors can see as they walk in.
Adding your name to the online waitlist before arriving can save time, especially on weekends and evenings when the dining room tends to fill up quickly. Takeout is also available for those who want to eat elsewhere.
The bread rolls served at the start of every meal are baked fresh in-house each day and come with a cinnamon butter that many guests say is the highlight of the whole meal. Asking for a second basket is common and usually welcomed without hesitation.
