What people say, in short

Texas Roadhouse is recommended as a budget-friendly steakhouse chain, and most diners who name it do not say which Austin outlet they mean. Many say it is hard to beat for the money, and a couple say they have never left disappointed. Others are less convinced: one says steak quality steps down from premium steakhouses, and another says the prime rib is steadiest while other steaks tend to miss on doneness. Several people are more critical, with one calling it diner-level next to the steakhouse they remember.
