Read online that meats would be ok without spices/sauces. When I ordered, waitress came back and said chef says everything comes preseasoned. There was nothing to change my order to so I still got my food and even my green beans had seasonings on them. I had a few bites of my meal before giving it to my friend and was extremely sick the whole night. Don’t waste your time and money here

Before going, I looked at their GF options online- they offered a steak kabob - steak and grilled veggies, no rice. Had to be ordered with NO marinade and no seasoning, other than salt and pepper. Talked extensively to the waitress, explained Celiac and the seriousness of my request. Asked if the manager and kitchen have special protocol for food allergies, etc... She assured me that my order would go to the manager. I ordered the steak and veggies, NO marinade, NO seasoning, just salt and pepper. Also ordered a baked potato, and asked if their sour cream is GF (I know that most is, but one local restaurant insists theirs isn't, so I always double check). 40 minutes later, FOURTY, our food arrives. My steak kebob is dripping in marinade, and a dry baked potato. I knew I wasn't touching the meat, but asked about sour cream or butter. She said that "nobody knew" if they had gluten. I said, "Isn't it just butter"? "Yes, but it's whipped.". "Is there anything else in it?", "Nobody in the kitchen knows". Then she argued with me that the marinade was fine, even though their own menu and their menu online stated that it was NOT. Yeah, so I waited 40 minutes for a dry baked potato. So disappointed. She then offered to go back to the kitchen and have it remade with no marinade (imagine that?! The way I ordered it!!!!). I told her no thanks, at this point it had been a full hour since I originally ordered, and I had ZERO confidence in their ability to handle food allergies. Will never go back.

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 :)
