Texas Roadhouse

My daughter used to work at one of these and warned me that she wouldn’t let me eat there because it’s so much cross contamination. Well the waitress was knowledgeable but I still ended up getting some and had my symptoms by the time we got home. Boo.

I have gone there twice and what I discovered is when they aren’t sure of something they put it on the side of your plate in a separate container when they serve you your meal. When I asked if it was safe both times the waitress response was the same,”I’m not sure, that’s why I put it on the side.” Both times I asked her to look into it and one out of the two times, it wasn’t gluten free. Sadly this is something I have had happen to me at a variety of places so if somethings served separately on the side be sure to verify and insist on them being sure.

Not sure what my reaction will be. At first the waiter said no gluten free. Then he said yeah. I ordered a med steak no seasoning and a sweet potato plain. Both steaks were burnt

This was probably the best GF meal I’ve ever had at a restaurant! I asked for GF menu, our waitress had one with her. I ordered the Steak Kabob with no rice. Mashed potatoes with no gravy and a side salad with oil and vinegar no croutons. They brought out the salad with a small container of oil and another small container of red wine vinegar so I could add as much or as little as I wanted. I really appreciate that! Then the Kabobs and mashed potatoes came out… absolutely fabulous! I was so shocked. Will be adding Texas Roadhouse to my favorites list ❤

Texas Roadhouse is usually a good chain for gluten free. This was not my vest experience with them. I ordered my food with allergy prep. When my steak come out, it had a stray piece of a not-gluten-free topping mixed in, which was highly concerning. They remade my steak and the manager brought it out. Granted, it was extremely busy and I was with a large party. In the end, I did not get sick. This is probably a decent stop for GF, especially considering there didn't seem to be much else in the area. This was an obligatory dinner stop on a road trip.

I ordered pick up from the gluten free menu. Steak, baked potato, and steamed broccoli. No extras since I was picking up and could add my own toppings at home. Everything was delicious and I did not have any reactions.

Very few options that would be safe. Their seasoning is not gluten free and they put it on EVERYTHING! My Celiac daughter wanted corn, couldn’t have it….baked potato? Nope, they cover the outside with bacon grease and seasoning. After a lot of discussion we ended up with a steak with no seasoning and a side of broccoli.

Yes, this is a chain, and has been safe go-to if available during our roadtrips. This location is near our home-base. They do have GF options on their website. My husband likes it there bc there are more GF options to choose from for sides. So far no reactions (knock on wood). Aside from most of the steak options, the ribs (bbq sauce or rub) have been alright for him.

Perks for me: the warm rolls with cinnamon butter, not to rub it in :)
