Download PDF MenuOne note worth flagging honestly: a saved PDF can go out of date the moment a price changes, while this page gets updated the same day pricing shifts. If you print or save a copy for later, treat it as a snapshot, and use this live page as the source of truth if the numbers ever look off.
Find Texas Roadhouse Near Me
Use the official store locator or a map app to confirm hours and check whether Early Dine or lunch specials run at that specific restaurant. Locations tend to sit near major roads, shopping centers, and areas close to colleges or universities, since these spots bring steady traffic all week.
Prices can also shift by region, not just by city. Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows food-away-from-home costs have run higher in Western states than the national average in recent reports. If a price here looks off for your area, region is usually the reason, not a data error on this page.
Most locations do not take a standard reservation. Instead they offer Call-Ahead Seating, and at many restaurants an online waitlist, so you can put your name down before you arrive. Bar seating is usually open on a first-come basis if the table wait runs long. Hours commonly start near 3 p.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m. on weekends, though this shifts by city.
How to Save Money at Texas Roadhouse
Early Dine Specials
Many locations offer full meals for as low as $9.99 to $10.99 on weekday afternoons, often between 3 and 6 p.m. This is likely the source of the $10.99 deal people search for. Availability depends on the restaurant, so a quick call before you go is worth it.
Do Seniors Get a Discount?
Some restaurants offer 10 to 15 percent off for seniors, though it is not a formal company-wide program. Ask your server or call ahead to confirm.
Is There a 2 for $20 Deal?
Texas Roadhouse does not run a standing 2 for $20 bundle the way some casual chains do. A few markets outside the United States have run short margarita promotions instead, so treat any 2 for $20 sign you see locally as a limited offer and confirm it before ordering.
VIP Club and Best Value Combos
Joining the VIP Club by email typically brings a welcome offer plus future deals tied to your home location. Sharing an appetizer, choosing a combo instead of two separate entrees, and picking a Family Pack for a group of four or more are the easiest ways to lower a bill without hunting for a coupon code.
Texas Roadhouse Price Increases, 2020 to 2026
Prices here have climbed slowly rather than in sharp jumps. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, prices for food away from home, the category covering restaurants, were up about 3.4 percent over the year as of June 2026. That is a fair national benchmark for how much a typical restaurant meal has climbed overall.
Why Beef Prices Keep Rising
The main driver behind steak pricing is the cost of cattle. The USDA Economic Research Service projected 2026 beef and veal prices up about 12 percent at the middle of its forecast range, tied to a tighter national cattle supply. Restaurant chains that serve steak, including this one, generally pass part of that cost along rather than shrink portions. Even with this pressure, Texas Roadhouse has kept its own price growth smaller than the wider beef market, and it still prices below both Outback and LongHorn on most matching cuts.
| Year | Average Steak Price | Main Driver |
|---|---|---|
| 2020 | $18.99 | Pandemic-era stability |
| 2021 | $19.99 | Supply chain trouble |
| 2022 | $20.99 | Beef cost spike |
| 2023 | $20.49 | Small price correction |
| 2024 | $21.49 | Inflation catch-up |
| 2025 | $21.99 | Slower increases |
| 2026 | $22.49 | Gradual adjustment |
Total growth across six years sits near 20 to 25 percent, or about 3 to 5 percent a year, with no single year showing a sharp spike. That is a much steadier pattern than the wider beef market saw over the same period.
Texas Roadhouse Nutrition and Dietary Guide
Gluten-Free Options
Grilled chicken without breading, hand-cut steaks, and grilled salmon are commonly chosen as gluten-free-friendly. Preparation can vary by kitchen, so guests with celiac disease should ask for the restaurant’s own allergen guide before ordering.
Low-Calorie and High-Protein Picks
The Grilled Shrimp Appetizer at 240 calories and Grilled BBQ Chicken at 420 calories are two of the lighter, higher-protein choices on the menu. The Hand-Cut Sirloin at 420 calories is a strong pick if you want real steak without a heavy calorie count.
Vegetarian and Vegan Options
The menu is built around meat, so vegetarian guests usually build a plate from a House Salad without cheese, a plain baked potato, and steamed vegetables. It is not a strong choice for vegan dining, but a workable plate is possible.
