This place is pretty good. I was very surprised with the filet mignon I ordered. I expected it to be somewhat like Outback or those type of places being that Texas Roadhouse is a chain, but boy was I wrong.
I downed a few margaritas during the extensive wait. This restaurant seems to be a pretty popular one, for good reason. They apparently hand cut their steaks and do a great job cooking them to order. Unlike most steak restaurants, I asked for my steak to be cooked medium and I got medium.
The price was perfect too. I think it was $16 for a filet mignon and it came with a salad, and two sides.
A Side Note: I saw the Texas Roadhouse CEO appear on CNBC recently and he spoke about how they, like Morton’s and Ruth’s Chris, have been buying beef off the spot market (commodities market). So, this is one way they’ve been able to save costs, up to $1/lb., during these inflationary commodity times (http://www.cnbc.com/id…).
