South - Willie Nelson's Texas Roadhouse

Another wonderful adventure to Texas Roadhouse! This location in particular is owned by the one and only Willie Nelson. Complete with memorabilia on the walls and occasional country tunes. We enjoy the lively atmosphere and excellent service here.

We always come for the rolls, and stay for the steak! Specifically the Dallas Fillet, their specialty cut, which is divinely tender and juicy. I order medium rare and it always comes out as intended. 

I used to order the sirloin, but it was a hit or miss cut. Now that I get the Dallas Fillet, my steak is always delicious. 

My side of chili was on the spicier side - not toddler approved,  but I quite enjoyed it and as an adult would say it had a kick but was very yummy. I got it topped with the cheddar and onions at no additional charge. 

My mashed potatoes were delicious and buttery, fully loaded with bacon, butter, and cheddar for a dollar and a half extra. 

The salmon was very tender/flakey and well seasoned with lemon and butter. The green beans were likely canned and then cooked with bacon, also really good, but probably my least favorite side. 

The other side is Nathan's special - a baked sweet potato fully loaded like a regular potato which was excellent. Asher enjoyed the fish, mashed potatoes, and steak the most, but he had some green beans, and sweet potato. 

This location is popular, and we had a 35-45 min wait on a Thursday around 7:30PM. The estimated wait was accurate and we were sat shortly after checking in. The hostess seating us was very kind and asked if we were celebrating anything, to which I replied "life!" 

The waitress, Maria Garcia, was wonderful. She communicated well, made sure our drinks stayed topped up, upsold but not in a pushy way, and then she went above and beyond! She got me a to-go strawberry lemonade (on the sweet side and very good) and it accidentally got bussed off the table so she made me another and met me on the way out! Thank you Maria!! Definitely top service at this location and we really enjoyed our meals.
