Rediscovered: Texas Roadhouse
We used to eat at the Texas Roadhouse pretty often, but over the summer, we've gotten away from it. It's an excellent place, kind of a southwestern steakhouse (little bit redneck, I guess) atmosphere. But, they have the best baked potatoes I have ever gotten in a restaurant. They have what they call the "Earlybird Menu", where you can choose two entrees (each comes with two sides) from an abbreviated menu for $13.99 (for both!). My sister and I always get this since it's an excellent value. I usually get the 6-oz sirloin and she gets that or the barbecued chicken breast. Both are very good.
This is a real roadhouse type place, loud country music, lots of farm memorabilia on the walls, Willie Nelson posters, peanuts in the shell (with signs everywhere telling you it's ok to throw the shells on the floor!). Not too expensive. Simple dishes. Excellent service.
If you have one near you and you've never eaten there, try it out.
Recommended dish: "Roadkill" (I kid you not about the name) ...it's a ground sirloin pattie topped with grilled onions and mushrooms, all covered in melted jack cheese - yummy!)
