I went in on a Friday afternoon to see what all the fuss was about with this Cheesy Western and their chili dog. Well, let me tell you, the Cheesy Western was to die for and the perfect remedy for a previous night of copius inbibememt. I got the Katz Dog with chili, which was good enough to make you wanna kiss your sister on the mouth and smack your mamma on the backside. Plus, a purchase of a Katz Dog resulted in a donation to the Special Olympics, which is a cause near and dear to my heart. The staff there were fresh and friendly like a young Bill Clinton ( I stole that line from a friend). The ambiance reminded me of an old school diner, nostalgic and reminiscent of a peaceful time in my childhood when we all could get along regardless of where we came from, and you could take differences and polictics out of the equation and just have a good meal and conversation. If you happen to come across a Texas Inn during your travels, do yourself and your soul a favor and come on it. You'll leave the better for it. read more

Texas Inn Richmond - Hot Dogs Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Me and my son and 11-year-old grandson visited today (grandson's pick) and we really enjoyed the food and the friendliness and the price! My Nathan's dog "all the way" was delicious and filling; son had the burger, grandson a burger, and we got fries, onion rings, and cheesy fries. Delivered super-fast and didn't require one of us to sell a kidney. Loved the casual checking-in to see that we were satisfied and just the simple old-time friendliness of a diner. No drama and tasty, reliable food. The pies are good too although we abstained today. read more

$3.00 hotdogs. Service was friendly and fast. My first time there, but I want to explore the menu. Old school diner ambiance. Nothing bougee, not trying to re-invent the wheel. read more

This place is just alright. I went sober which might've been my problem, I sense it might be a drunk college kid type of vibe. I wasn't expecting a burger to be $10 for a little place like this, (considering the size was about the same as a cookout burger), but it was good and the hospitality of the staff honestly might be the reason I ranked it higher. The food wasn't my favorite, but those women behind the counter are absolute angels and are a reason enough to be back. I do like hotdogs ... maybe I should try again and just get a hotdog. read more

Texas Inn Richmond - Texas Burger - Hot Dogs Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

The T-Room is where it's at! My mom, having grown up in Lynchburg, was so excited to try the Richmond location. It's your classic counter space and everyone that works there is so funny & friendly. Mom insisted we had to get the classic hot dogs & cheesy Western & they were really delicious! She wanted to buy one of their mugs and since it was around Mother's Day, they wrapped it up in a nice bag for her. Top notch customer service! read more

I was looking for someplace to eat breakfast and stumbled upon this restaurant which looked fun from the outside, so I stopped in. The service was great, I was immediately greeted upon entering. I opted for bacon, egg and cheese on a biscuit with a side of potatoes and coffee. The food came out very quickly. The sandwich was great, nice and cheesy on a buttery biscuit. The potatoes were disappointing, they were soggy, greasy and lacked flavor. This is a great diner type place to grab a quick and inexpensive meal. read more

Texas Inn is a good place to stop for a quick burger, dog, or similar fare. The burgers are good, not outstanding. The dogs are good, the chili on them is thick and suits the dogs well. (It's hot dog chili not just from a pot of what some places would bowl up. Which is a plus.) Onion rings are not good..... cooked at a low temp, steaming the onions inside instead of cooking them so they pull out on first bite. If you like empty fried breading, this is a good bet for you! When we visited in December it was very cold inside. Even the wait staff was wearing hats and hoodies. Parking is very limited but this is located in Devil's Triangle so that is to be expected. Nothing poor here, nothing outstanding. Worth a stop if in the area. read more

Because nothing hits the spot like a Cheesy Western. I loved this place (Lynchburg and Roanoke) and was excited to learn they were coming to RVA. I finally stopped by and treated myself. Just as good as I remember. Be sure to order yours 'all the way' read more

Super friendly staff and lovely community ! It feels just like an old diner and I loved it. Wish they had more vegetarian friendly options - but I didn't go for me. My friend told me the food was absolutely amazing. I just had some fries which were good. The sweet tea is the best I've found in the DMV area thus far. read more

A friend and I stopped into the new Richmond location of Texas Inn after First Friday at the museums nearby. We were looking for a chill, no-frills, affordable spot, and Texas Inn delivered! I ordered a ton of food and it was only roughly $25. Really not bad at all. Oh, and they have on-site parking, which is lovely. We sat at a table across from the bar stools and were quickly greeted and served. We both ordered fountain sodas to start, and, after much debate, we decided on hot dogs, though I definitely need to go back and try their cheeseburgers. Another patron very strongly recommended the cheesy western! Our food was ready in maybe two minutes - tops. My hot dog was good, I ordered it with cheese and it came with a single slice of unmelted cheese, which was surprising as I was expecting more of a sauce. It was good regardless. I also ordered sides of cole slaw and macaroni salad. My friend suggested they add celery seed to the mac salad to elevate it. She also ordered their fries and said she enjoyed them. For dessert, I ordered the dreamsicle shake to go. Since I wasn't drinking it immediately, our server kindly separated the soda and ice cream into separate containers. The chocolate pie looked delightful as well, so that's on my to-try list too. I wouldn't hesitate to return for a burger or dog in the future. read more

I was not expecting the food to be good, as everyone kept telling me that this is the place needs to go when I'm drunk. we came with family for lunch. the space is not big , have some bar seats and limited small tables around. some outdoor tables but it's hot in the summer. we found our own seats but was not offered menu when I was trying to figure out what each burger is like. I had the HarrisonBurger which considered the #1 in the contest , but it's just a patty with some chili , it's small and very messy to eat. it's small enough that you might need two to get full. in my party one ordered the hotdog which is purposely dye red and topped with chili, I heard they didn't enjoy it either. the menu has some really racist/homophobic jokes. but I guess you can get away with it in the south. sorry for the ignorance not knowing the history of this brand that's almost 80 years. but having been living in Texas, this is nothing Texas would offer. read more

Very kind people! Likely only ~16 seats in the joint but fun to sit at the old school bar. People were great with my three little kids! Fun and casual environment. Try the chili! read more

Texas Inn Richmond - Hot Dogs Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Pros: Service was genuinely cheerful and helpful. I was offered a relish sample free of charge and without asking. I didn't feel ill after eating. Texas relish was good and seemed house-made. Duke's mayonnaise. Cons: very overcooked onion rings that were completely desiccated. Burger looked and tasted like it was from a frozen pack from the grocery store. There was a lot of ground- in dirt around the baseboards and kick boards. A burger, hot dog, onion ring, and drink was $30 including tax and tip. read more

So whatcha havin'? What began as a modest 10-seat diner in Lynchburg, VA is now a fast food staple go-to in downtown Harrisonburg and now they've added their fourth location in the museum district of Richmond! This ain't fancy, but it's fun, friendly and filling, and all for a reasonable price. Every time I have been at a Texas Inn I have been greeted well and treated even better. The service is always "happy to see you, glad you're here" and even in the wee hours of the night, at least in Harrisonburg, they manage to keep their smiles and sense of humor. It's a fun vibe and based on what I'm sure they see every night in the land of JMU students who have imbibed maybe a wee bit too much, they're there to take care of you. The menu is simple, burgers, hot dogs and sandwiches. Their legendary must-have is their "Cheesy Western," a smash burger with cheese, a fried egg and their crack-like relish. Their menu says they served nearly 400,000 of them in 2023. And they only had three locations! With a side of fries you're looking at about $13 but feel free to upgrade to some onion rings, chili, or some homemade potato or macaroni salad. And save room for their surprisingly high-quality sweets, like homemade pies and ice cream floats! They also have all-day breakfast choices like omelets and egg sandwiches, as well as more comfort sides like fried apples, grits, and everyone's military favorite, the S.O.S (or in a more family friendly way of saying it- sausage or chipped beef gravy on a biscuit or toast.) If you know you know. The atmosphere is no frills with some funny signage and some quite popular swag (mugs, t-shirts) featuring their logo and the legendary waitress from their Lynchburg location. About half a dozen tables and about ten counter seats, so not the biggest place in the world either, but the vibe is always fun and family friendly. Don't know what else to say except if you've been to one, you'll feel right at home, and if you haven't, you'll feel like a regular the first time you dine here. The Texas Inn - no rooms at this inn, but save room for some fun and friendly food choices that will have you coming back over and over again. Give me two cheesies, all the way! read more

Love this cute little diner in the devils triangle. The food is cheap, fast and delicious. The server was super attentive and gave us recommendations that weren't even on the menu that we both ordered and loved. They give you Texas Inn hats if you have children with you or you yourself can color one too and they'll hang it on the wall once you're done! Loved the coke bottles with salt, pepper and fry seasonings. Definitely want to try one of their pies next time! read more

I heard about the Texas Inn here in Richmond on WRVA radio yesterday. I did not know it has been in Richmond for 18 months. Used to visit the original in Lynchburg. Plan to hit it for lunch today!!! Glad to have a Legacy Resturant to go to with so many places closing! Star rating is because it is an old favorite/nostalgia! read more

I am back to update my review. I went back again and this time I got a chili cheese dog, and krinkle fries without the cheese. They were amazing. I will be back again and again for those. read more

So many of our fellow foodies from various foodie groups highly suggested #texasinnrva, newly located in the Museum district in the former Izzy's Kitchen location. Cute retro-diner feel, super nice owner who gave us a history lesson on the origins of the diner while we waited for our food. We opted for some variety: Texas Burger ($6.99), Famous Hotdog "all the way"($3.99),Texas Hen ($8.99) and a basket of crinkle fries ($5.99)! The dish that was our favorite was indeed the Famous Hotdog (red snap dog covered in chili, "relish" (chowchow iykyk), onions and mustard, so tasty and a must try! #texasinnrva #texashen #texasburger #rvafoodies #rvaeatsfood read more

Each time I come in is always a nice family atmosphere small menu old time counter old time Customer Service nice quiet enjoy each time.

Got delivery from Texas inn tonight. Hot dogs had a foul taste and the chili tasted like it was scraped from the bottom of a pan. Ordered a slice of apple pie. The pie has a prepared and sell by date that had expired. It was made on 12/20 and use by 12/27. Today is the 29th. Corn dog and grilled cheese were typical. read more

Great Food, Great People!!! Got the Cheesy Western with a side of onion rings. Wife had the Duke Burger with fries.

I really want to love this place because it's so convenient and the staff is friendly but how many times can I come here and get served unsalted microwaved fries!? there's only one employee that's ever actually fried my fries to order and salted them but if she's not there whoever is in the kitchen hands me soggy room temp fries with no salt. mind you these are typically to go orders so I can't salt them at the table. It's disappointing read more

I've been to the RVA T-Room several times since it's opened. It's not the Lynchburg original (or even the Roanoke original) but the food's just as good as when I was a kid a long, long time ago. Cheesy, hot all-the-way, bowl all-the-way. Not sure about these fries things yet, or this new JMU food, but I'll give it a chance soon enough. How good is it? About every other week I'll think to myself, "Man, I could really go for a Cheesy". read more

Food was fine, french fries were scorching hot and delicious. Service was super friendly but the BEST thing was their soda offering. They had Mexican Coke, Coke in the can or plastic bottle, baby Coke bottles and fountain drinks. Seriously count me in. My only suggestion would be get a steamer for the buns. That would take it next level. read more

Great little spot - no fuss food. There's a reason this place is a classic in Lynchburg. Get the cheesy western!

I took my friend, who was here from CA, to grab a cheesy western and fries. We ended up ordering a few different items as well. All the food was hot and fresh, and the counter staff was great. They anticipated all our needs, served us with warmth and hospitality, and were so friendly! We lucked out that day and met the owner who let me know the chow chow I loved was available to purchase and enjoy at home! (So were the salads!) I live near the Goochland County line, but what's a few minutes' drive to feel welcome and dig into some good food? Plus, I need more chow chow! read more

It's a hot dog joint... Decent dog but better burger. We had 2 dogs, corn dog, western burger, double beacon cheese burger and fries. Service was on point, very quick. Dogs are good but the burgers were delicious. Keep in mind this is a hotdog burger place. Not fancy or flashy. Would give them a 5 if the hot dog was firm and not soft and mushy. Taking in to account the quick service and price we will be back. Hopefully the dogs will be firmer... Tiger read more

Tried breakfast for the first time here and it was mixed at best. The coffee was good and the biscuit was excellent but my over medium eggs were well done, the pitiful thin single sausage patty was average taste, the grits were lumpy and swimming in liquid yellow oil and the apples were okay but lacked any cinnamon flavor that is normally found in breakfast apples. The service was friendly and efficient! When I asked to taste the gravy to see if I wanted some for my biscuit I was told it is pre packed and I'd have to buy a 5.99 side dish with no tasting! read more

I've been going to the T Room longer than I can remember. The staff are fun, the clientele is unique, and the Westerns are my favorite burger of all time. All the way, double relish and a bowl with. Add a Hot all the way and a Dr. Pepper and you'll be set! The T Room is one of those places that brings people together. The diners range from young to old and across all social levels. One of my favorite things to see is a child's initial visit / Western / Bowl and happy parents filming the first bite! It's truly a rite of passage, and a legacy that passes from generation to generation. I prefer the OG location in Downtown Lynchburg for the nostalgia, but the other locations have imported the magic. read more

I had the flameburger and onion rings. The onion rings were on the counter almost before my butt hit the stool. The burger arrived quick and hit. The extremely friendly staff and quick service will keep me coming back when I'm in town. My first visit was during their soft-opening and the service was a bit haphazard. They seem to now have all their systems in place and staff trained up. Good job, Dave! read more

First this review is loooong overdue, since we first visited in May. My daughter went to college in Lynchburg and we became BIG fans of the T-Room! So happy they're in Richmond. The staff is always sweet- the food is yummy and you just can't find anything else like it. Recommendations: Cheesy Western (or homemade chicken salad on wheat if it's not "cheat day." We arrived the day before Mother's Day and laughed way too hard at this sign! read more

Texas Inn Richmond - Hot Dogs Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

Good late night place to grab something "mid" to eat, relatively standard compared to other Southern places of this genre - no there isn't another time I'll come and it will change in quality (queue the owner responding to every review), the food is average and that's okay. Waitress was so overly friendly that she spent too much time talking about random stuff to other customers that she neglected the others, so our food was cold from sitting in the window a mere ten feet from us. I'd go again if I was drunk, a fratty dude with a backwards cap, or a marble-mouthed gumby talking about how stuff is "lit" or "gas" - but that probably won't happen. read more

Love the old-school diner vibe! I've been vegetarian for close to 30 years, so I have a lot of experience piecing together side dishes to make a meal. However, that was NOT the case here! The owner, Dave, took care to go through the menu and highlight each vegetarian-friendly item for me. I went with the Denver AKA a Cheesy Western without the hamburger AKA the vegetarian Cheesy Western, and a side of cheese fries. The food came quick, the service was friendly, and the food hit the spot. Will definitely be going back! read more
