Texas Roadhouse

[GiGi Lafoo]

We ate there this past weekend. I had the Oven Roasted Chicken and it was soooo good! According to the waiter who was on Atkins it is slow roasted and basted with natural chicken broth, butter and garlic. If so it was the most savory, luscious low carb item I've eaten yet in a restaurant. Passed on their tasty rolls and just had the chicken and a salad minus croutons and eggs (too stinky for a salad for me). My keto stick was still pink the next morning and I lost the usual .5 lb that day.

Re: Texas Roadhouse

yum, my fav place to eat. I have never had the chicken I ge the beef kebobs withthe veggie kebobs, with salad and the brocc cauli and carrot with melted cheese for the veggie. I do not do the rice that comes with it obviously. But all there cuts of beef are great.

I have tasted most of them . I will have to try the chicken...

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Thanks for the feedback on that restaurant. We have a Texas Roadhouse that just opened or is getting ready to open here. Nice to have a new restaurant that I know I can eat well at.

Atkid, if you can get in..lol

Ours has been in for over a year, and it is 2 hr or more wait at most times we try. We hit it lucky once and awhile on a saturday at 2ish for late lunch early dinner.

Re: Texas Roadhouse

That's how the Outback Steakhouse is here, its always a very long wait for a table. If you get there after 4pm you better be prepared to wait. But its so worth it!

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Yip, sure is worth it.. They have call ahead seating, for what that is worth; it works sometimes, others not so good.

Re: Texas Roadhouse

I hear ya, have gotten used to eating earlier now (5 or so on Fridays and Saturdays) since Katrina, most restaurant here either don't have enough staff (still,which I think is ridiculous) so they carry odd hours, or just have not completely made it back up yet. So everyone is waiting to get in everywhere. Any chance they do "call ahead" lists?

Re: Texas Roadhouse

texasroadhouse does do call ahead seating. Up this neck of the woods they are not too accurate with it. But the service is there.

Re: Texas Roadhouse

I love Texas Roadhouse! They don't open for lunch here through the week though and I never get there during dinner hours.

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Yeah, the one that just opened up by us is crazy busy almost ALL the time. There's a line out front when they open at 4PM!

Their ribs are great...hold the sauce! MMmmm...think I'll go to Longhorn tonight for some ribs...they have the best!

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Oh yeah, I love Texas Roadhouse... their steak is just amazing... they even serve peanuts on the table before the meal. I like having a few instead of mawing down on their rolls. They make all their food fresh within the restaurant (even the salad dressing) and I can really taste the difference... it's nice too that so many of their meals are meat-based so I have some real options when I get dinner there.

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Alright, maybe I changed my mind..maybe I'll try going down there and getting a seat at the bar for dinner...

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Oddly enough, I'm suddenly craving a big fat juicy steak. I wonder why?

Re: Texas Roadhouse

Eh, I ended up at Longhorn and had a side caesar salad and this chicken with cheese and bacon on it, I had the BBQ sauce on the side and only dipped twice... LOL! I also had a side of nice fresh veggies...was dang good! I like Longhorn...it's kind of spendy though..
