About

About Texas Roadhouse

Texas Roadhouse was founded in 1993 by Kent Taylor in Clarksville, Indiana — not Texas — with a vision to serve hand-cut steaks and made-from-scratch sides in a laid-back, fun atmosphere at prices everyday families could afford. Taylor, who passed away in 2021, built the chain on the idea that every guest deserves to feel welcomed, symbolized by the legendary bucket of free peanuts placed at every table and the baskets of warm, fresh-baked rolls that arrive before you even order.

The brand grew quickly through the late 1990s and 2000s by refusing to compromise on food preparation: every steak is cut by hand in each restaurant's on-site butcher shop, making Texas Roadhouse one of the largest purchasers of USDA Choice beef in the country. That commitment extends to the kitchen, where mashed potatoes, green beans, mac and cheese, and other sides are made from scratch daily — a practice increasingly rare in chain dining. By 2026, the chain operates more than 700 locations across the United States.

Texas Roadhouse is also known for its energetic, music-filled dining rooms, line-dancing staff, and affordable cocktail program headlined by the Legendary Margarita. The Elyria, Ohio location — like every Texas Roadhouse — follows the same standards: a full on-site meat cutter, made-from-scratch recipes, and a price point that puts a genuine USDA Choice steak dinner on the table for under $20.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does Texas Roadhouse really give free peanuts and rolls?

Yes — every Texas Roadhouse table receives a complimentary bucket of unshelled peanuts and a basket of warm, made-from-scratch yeast rolls with whipped cinnamon honey butter. Both arrive before you order and are refilled at no charge throughout your visit. Note that the peanuts are a major allergen; guests with peanut allergies should inform their server and may prefer to sit in a designated allergen-aware section.

What is the cheapest steak at Texas Roadhouse?

The most affordable steak is the 6 oz. USDA Choice Sirloin at $14.99, which includes your choice of two made-from-scratch sides. That makes it one of the best values in casual steakhouse dining — a complete hand-cut steak dinner for under $15. Prices may vary slightly by location.

Are Texas Roadhouse steaks really hand-cut in the restaurant?

Yes. Every Texas Roadhouse has an in-house butcher who cuts steaks fresh daily from USDA Choice beef. The chain is one of the largest buyers of USDA Choice beef in the United States. Steaks are never pre-cut off-site or shipped pre-portioned — this on-site cutting program is a core part of the brand's quality promise.

What sides come with an entree at Texas Roadhouse?

Most entrees include two made-from-scratch sides. Choices include mashed potatoes, seasoned rice, green beans, corn, mac and cheese, baked potato, sweet potato, house salad, Caesar salad, and more. Sides are made fresh daily in each restaurant rather than from frozen or canned ingredients.

Does Texas Roadhouse have a gluten-free menu?

Texas Roadhouse offers a gluten-free menu available upon request. Many steaks, grilled proteins, and sides (like the baked potato, green beans, and corn) can be prepared without gluten-containing ingredients. However, the restaurant kitchen handles gluten products, so cross-contamination is possible. Guests with celiac disease should speak directly with a manager before ordering.

What are the most popular items at Texas Roadhouse?

The 6 oz. USDA Choice Sirloin is consistently the chain's best-selling steak. Other top sellers include the Chicken Critters Dinner (hand-battered chicken tenders), the Fall-Off-The-Bone Ribs, the Cactus Blossom appetizer (Texas Roadhouse's take on the blooming onion), and the Legendary Margarita.

Does Texas Roadhouse take reservations?

Texas Roadhouse does not take traditional reservations. Instead, guests can add their name to the waitlist ahead of time using the Call Ahead Seating feature on the Texas Roadhouse app or by calling their local restaurant. This means your table won't be held, but you'll be placed in line before you arrive, often reducing your wait significantly on busy nights.

How does Texas Roadhouse compare to Outback Steakhouse on price?

Texas Roadhouse is generally 5–15% less expensive than Outback Steakhouse for comparable cuts. A 6 oz. sirloin runs about $14.99 at Texas Roadhouse versus roughly $17.99 at Outback. Texas Roadhouse also includes two sides with entrees, whereas Outback charges separately for sides, making the value gap even more pronounced on a full-meal basis.

What is the Legendary Margarita and how much does it cost?

The Legendary Margarita is Texas Roadhouse's signature cocktail — a house margarita served on the rocks with a salted rim, made with tequila, triple sec, and lime. It typically costs around $8.49 and is one of the most-ordered drinks at the chain. Frozen and flavored variations (like strawberry) are also available for slightly more.
