Great service, especially our server. Food was excellent (just a bit salty). Ambiance is nice, yet noise is TOO loud in EVERY TR. Ladies room...SO dirty...toilet base, trap way, and horn were TOTALLY DISGUSTING, FILTHY, YUCK:( read more

9/19/26, about 8:30pm. This place has gone downhill fast! Service/server (skinny guy with glasses) completely ignored our table, got drinks wrong did bring our bread until we forced the issue. Did not get our order correct, and didn't bring parts of our food. Steak chard tough, by the time I got all my order food was cold. Spoke with manager she was will to give us a new server, too late we left. read more

9/5/2026- while visiting our son and his family- we arrived at the Texas Roadhouse in Cape and were seated pretty quick- the place was packed- ordered drinks and then our food - which was 3 steaks and chicken-we got our drinks then our salads and we noticed several people leaving- half way through our salads the waitress came back to the table to tell us the grill was on fire and that the fire marshal was called but it would be several hours before the grill could be used due to the foam from the extinguisher that was sprayed on the grill- but we could order either shrimp or ribs since those were not grill items - so we ordered two racks of ribs, grilled salmon and grilled shrimp-we were also told that the doors were locked - no one else was allowed in- but we kept seeing people come in and being seated- 1 hour and approximately 45 minutes after we were seated- I asked the waitress for like the 4th time about our food and was informed it was getting close and she would check- she returned to tell me just a few more minutes and at that time I told her to just put it in boxes to go our 11 month old grandson had grown tired of waiting as well as all of the adults- she brings the bill and states the manager took off $30.00- too tired and irritated to really look at the bill we just paid and left as more people were coming in- all of this to say the whole restaurant should have been closed down and evacuated as soon as the fire started- the manager never came over to let us know what was going on or to apologize for any inconvenience- I have attached the receipt, I still think we were charged wrong- the waitress kept babbling about not being able to remove charges but it was right- I'm still not convinced- WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! and I'm pretty sure the health department would like to know that the staff had already put bread plates on tables at closing time- as I walked by I wondered how many people had spit, coughed or sneezed while walking by. if i were to sit down and plates were on the table when I arrived I would request new plates read more

This location accommodated my family and I with great customer service and great. There was 11 of us in our party. We all ordered food and drinks within minutes of being seated. We started with fried pickles. They were really good. I also had a long island ice team. It was $5 deal. I enjoyed it. The bread was also fresh and hot. For my entree I had the Sirloin & Grilled Shrimp combo. It's lean, juicy and a really nice portion. The shrimp were large and seasoned, grilled, drizzled with garlic lemon pepper butter. It came with two sides. I had a loaded baked potato and fresh vegetables. Everything was good! read more

Joined the waitlist online and was sat rather promptly. It wasn't super busy but there was a steady flow of traffic. Service was great. Jeri-Lynn was our server and she was wonderful! She was friendly, kind, attentive and always made sure everything was to our liking. Food was good, sometimes it's a hit and miss with the steaks but no issues here. More kudos to our server she was really great and I enjoyed my meal. read more

I have been here twice now. The first trip I had a Ribeye, salad and baked potato my husband had the Chicken Fried steak. We were impressed! Great service and delicious food! But within an hour or so of eating there I started having stomach pains off and on for 2 days. I decided to give them another try cause it tasted so good. The second visit was not great. Got there half an hour after they opened and got the prime rib this time. It was just ok. And the sweet potato I ordered was only hot on the bottom. The brown sugar wouldn't melt. The salad was on the verge of being not good to eat. Some of it was looking pink like old lettuce. My husband had chili as a side and it was lukewarm as well, the cheese wouldn't melt and it was cold a few bites in. The employees were great both times. I think we will pass on future visits. Just not worth the inconsistency of the food at that price. read more

Food is great servers are awesome. Best Texas roadhouse I have been to. Would recommend. I stop here as often as possible when I am traveling in this area. Bartenders and other waitstaff are excellent read more

Horrible experience overall. never got rolls waitress was rude and steak was way over cooked. Overall experience was horrible I never want to go back read more

The taste of the food has always been great I always go there and go there about every week but here recently if you send a piece of food back you automatically start having stomach problems and diarrhea profusely I think someone is digging eye drops or something on the food to make you have digestive problems after you send the food back this is a serious situation and I would like to have Texas Roadhouse in Cape Girardeau Missouri contact me ever since I ate there today I've had terrible stomach problems and it happens every time when I said my food back I eat there regularly and this is just now starting to happen read more

I stood in line while I was waiting on a table for just me and people that came in after me was getting tables left and right as I was still standing there. What's bad is there was three booths open and a table right in front of me and they would not offer me a table I will never go back to a Texas roadhouse. There was no reason I should have had to wait 45 minutes while I watched people come in and get a table before me. Highly disappointed with the service read more

Doors open at 3:30. They could not seat us because they did not have someone that could wait on a party of 6 till 4pm. Most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Bye Texas Roadhouse. read more

Of course you basically know you're getting a decent meal for a decent price Being on the road, single, I sit at the bar and talk with the bartenders and also other customers. I have been getting the critter salad which is healthy and has good flavor. Bar staff was attentive to myself as well as other customers read more

Took two hours to be sat and served food. Was told 25 to 35 minutes and took an hour to get a table, another hour to get food we ordered. Never coming back. Other Texas Roadhouse I've never had this issue. read more

My husband and I went for our 28th anniversary. The food was excellent. My 8oz sirloin was cooked perfectly and my husbands was rare. Our server Sabrina was great too. We didn't need anything cause she made sure we had everything we need plus more. We got the combo appetizer with fried pickles, tater skins, and rattlesnake bites. All of it was hot and served with plenty of dipping sauce and sour cream. The restaurant was full but we walked in and was shown immediately to our booth. The restaurant was clean and they kept up with cleaning off the tables and the floor even though they were very busy at the time. I definitely recommend going here. read more

To the servers credit, she was professional and quick. I have nothing wrong with the staff outside the kitchen. However, the food was absolutely atrocious. The steak was dry and when I cut in, it looked initially good because yes, they did it rare in the middle, but they had the heat so high on the grill that it dried out the steak and made the edges so charred burnt and dry it was in edible. Whatsoever and very hard and dry. Not to mention there were huge bits of potato skin all through the mashed potatoes. I don't know what special education school the kitchen staff graduated from, but they can't cook a steak or bake potatoes to save their lives. I won't ever be eating here again. read more

Last 3 times that my wife and I have dined here, our steaks have come out either completely raw or burnt to a crisp. The last time we both got extremely sick, just moments after leaving. Onion bloom is always raw and inedible. Drinks taste watered down. Management is inept and allow servers to essentially hang out all night and neglect their tables. They can't seem to figure out cleaning tables off as they will have a line out the door with the restaurant full of dirty, empty tables. Corporate needs to step in and do something as this particular location has gone completely off the rails. Brings a bad name to such a reliable franchise. Would never recommend to anyone I had any respect for. read more

Started off fantastic with everyone friendly. Our waitress was great but, at the end was extremely rude. Didnt even give us a chance to talk to her before we could leave. Her name was Jada. read more

Bad service, overcooked food. Asked for medium well, got well done instead and cold overcooked fries. Bar tender Skylar had a bad attitude and manager Liz didn't care, both need to be terminated...worst steak and service in Cape...and STILL had to pay for my garbage food... read more

Terrible ribeye steak. Tough and grisly and really was probably the poorest steak I've had there

I love this place so much, I love the food. The waiting time is horrendous. Today I waited an hour and 30 minutes and finally received our text that says "you may gather your party and be seated" only to be told they confused us with another party and we had to wait even more. Kills the the vibe... read more

The first time I came here they told me the wait was 55m- 1hr 5mins. No problem with me. 1hr 45mins later I go check and I point out some open booth to the girl at the counter and she said that section was closed. I can customers sitting all around the area. They finally had a booth for us and our waitress comes and tell us she'll bring us bread. As I watch customers being seated after us being served bread. Our waitress comes back saying they ran out of bread, that she'd bring some when they have more. Ok, no problem. About 10mins I see customers being seated and served bread. So I stopped our waitress and ask for some bread. She said she'd go check then I see her go and take order on other tables and serve them and then bring bread to a table close to us. After 20 mins we finally got served bread. The food was great and the rest of the night went well. The whipped butter that came with the complimentary bread was delicious so we decided to give it another try. We were served bread as we got seated. We tried ordering the prime rib, and rack of ribs, both sold out. Luckily the next entrees we ordered were available. Some time had passed so we asked for more bread. I'm sitting close to where the kitchen is and I can see racks of bread sitting. I waited about 15min and ask for bread. She said they were out and I pointed to the rack in the kitchen. She then came back with bread. After some time we ate all our bread and I ask for more. She again told us they were out and that it was almost closing so they didn't want to "throw them away." We finished our food, paid our bill and as we were walking out I looked into the open kitchen and can see bread that's already baked sitting in the baking pan. Come on, it's just bread! Why you gotta be so over protective and stingy over bread. It's not even out of her pocket. These restaurants chain put out a $1 worth of bread and get back $70+ and waiters like this ruins it for them. It's not even about the bread, but the shitty customer service. I won't be returning to this location ever again. read more

We went to this location on Sunday, March 10, 2024 (two people). Server was Kelsey. She came to the table pretty promptly and took out drink orders, and we proceeded to decide our orders. First side dish came out (Caesar salad) and not too long after that everything else came out. Food was decent though nothing to write home about. We ate, chatted, and drank our drinks, and that's when the trouble started. Our waitress brought a printed bill when we were only half done and put it on the table. Huh? The bill normally shows up on the kiosks that are present on every table and you pay when you're ready. We got the impression she wanted us to get out so she could be done with us. Upon asking her if the restaurant told her to do that, she said that no, she just printed it and brought it out and it was her bad (her words). Since the bill was presented on the kiosk why even bother with a printed one? We spoke to the service manager, whose name I didn't catch, before we left. He said that some "older people" like to get a printed bill. We're middle aged, not exactly toddling around on walkers. Did he think we're too befuddled to figure out an electronic bill? Because we've been to this location before and this was the first time we got the check any way other than on the kiosk. Anyway, they can save time and aggravation next time and simply tell us to GTFO because they can't be bothered. Oh wait, there won't be a next time, because we won't be back and will let everyone we know about this experience. read more

Food was great. Service surprisingly good compared to other reviews. Certainly would have given 5 stars but several in our party commented on the portion size. One even showed us his food from another night and clearly they are portion controlled at this TRH. read more

Cape Girardeau location. Service wasn't great. We have been to several TR's all over the country with our larger family and never have we had to wait so long. We waited for nearly an hour to get our table, with several sitting open all over the restaurant. When we did finally get our table, they forgot to add our appetizer and then it took nearly another hour to get our food! The waitress was nice enough, but service was subpar. We will choose other locations next time. read more

This Texas Roadhouse is poorly ran!!! We went there Friday night at 8:58pm and the door wasn't locked and as soon as we walked in we were told that they couldn't serve us and that they were closing at 9:00! on a Friday night??? I worked at Outback Steakhouse for years and as long as you were in the door you were not going to be turned away! Such bull !!! We ask to talk to a manager and we were told that there wasn't one there!!! Again bull !! if you go there on Friday-Saturday you are lucky if they have any prime rib!! One night we went there and they were out of aujus!!!! Really?! One Friday night we were there at 6:00 and they were already out of prime rib!!! We have been to Texas Roadhouse's all over the US and prime rib is never a problem any day of the week. read more

I ordered online for pickup 2 steak meals. One steak cooked medium and the other cooked medium rare. I didn't think to check them until I got home (40 minutes later). When we cut into them, they were well done and medium well. I called and told them about my situation and the manager said she's very busy tonight, but a coupon should be in my email by the morning. I had no problem with that because I understand how swamped a restaurant can get. I waited 3 days before calling back again and asking for a manager. I called 10 minutes after opening so I figured no one was really too busy then. Well, I guess the manager couldn't come to the phone, but they took my name and number and said they would call me back. Here I am, another 4 days later with no coupon...I would just like some money back for my incorrect order. read more

This is such a fun place. Very relaxed. Buckets of peanuts around for munching. Great bar--flat screens around, with sports on. The bartender was terrific. The rolls are addictive. The dinner salad was fresh and delicious. The blue cheese dressing was very good. It was served on a chilled plate. The salmon was good (and like another reviewer said, a little salty). The baked potato was definitely salty, but good otherwise. I loved the peach margarita. It was perfect, so good. read more

We were excited for my niece graduation dinner. We had called a day (Thursday) ahead and told them that we would have a party of 15. They had told us that they could fit us in at 8:10 pm on Friday. We got there at 7:40 and was told it would be 8:30 before they could get us in. They also, said they would text us when the table was ready. We check has 8:30 and was told they could get us in but only as groups of 6. Mind you they never did text us. They told us we would be seated all over the restaurant. We were disappointed that they promised us one thing and was let down. They the lady up front acted like it was our fault we were told this 3 different time to when we confirm all through the day of Friday. They had a huge table that they seated 2 people right in front of us. We just left because we were disappointed and plan to never come back. People beware their waitlist crap. They don't honor their promises. Service: 1/5 read more

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. The Mango Margarita had to be remade due to the bar tender putting spices on it that we asked not to. We ordered a blooming onion and they asked 6 times to take it while we were eating it - finally my husband said take it we coudn't relax with so many interruptions. Ceasar salad had the water still on lettuce very watery for dressing. Steak was so salty on the first bite that it literaly burnt my tongue. They said it had been over seasoned with steak seasoning. Also, not one manager checked on our table during our meal. The server lady named Scotti came and took our tip off the table as we finished our drinks in front of us. I know they just opened up but wow they have a long way to go for me to want to spend 75.00 on two people again. A total bust for a date night for a married couple. read more

Went here last Sunday night with my two cousins. The last time I visited a Roadhouse was in Wisconsin about a year ago and I was really displeased with the steak, so I wasn't expecting too much from this one. We all three ordered the Ribeye steaks (10oz and 12oz). I ordered medium rare and the others were medium and well done. We also ordered a side of the onion thingy (blooming onion, something onion) like Outback and Chili's have. The waitress said they were out of the special sauce for it when she brought it to the table and gave us Ranch Dressing instead. It was very good. Hard to stop eating. But it would've been better with their dressing. Steaks came and they were all done perfectly. Very flavorful and weren't real thin steaks like the one I had in Wisconsin. Seasoned well and very tender. I had asked the waiter if he could have it done Pittsburgh style and was surprised that he knew what it was. He did tell me that if I wanted it Pittsburgh style it may come out a little more done than the medium rare. I sort of figured that, since most times a restaurant will overcook it trying to get the char on the outside. Rather than try it I said I'd take it just regular style, medium rare. Glad I did. This was a good restaurant. Wasn't loud and at least this night none of that singing and dancing stuff going on for birthdays like the one in Wisconsin. read more

Service was excellent. Chili has evolved since the last visit from thick, hearty and tasty to watered down and flavorless. The steak we ordered as "medium", came out as seen in photo. Thinner than ever and nearly charred so much that the bartender questioned whether it was ok, as it looked well-done. The iced tea was however delightful, as was the Sam Adams draft. I regret to say after 15+ years of coming to this chain, we have been relegated to other options that value the quality of food rather than the quantity of tickets. Won't be back. read more

Use the app online to reserve a table at 615pm, they tell us to arrive no later than 700pm. We show up and check in and are Advised just a couple in front on you and we'll seat you. They then continue to seat table after table after table. Then tells us we aren't allowed to stand inside (with masks on and socially distanced) that we must wait in our car or outside with 30 other people. FINALLY at 730, we Advised them that we are done waiting... they tell us oh no we can seat you now, after at LEAST 15 tables were seated before us.. As we were walking in to be seated, we see a room FULL of employees, (without masks) Goofing off and literally playing on the floor.. We decided to stick it out. Get to our seats and waitress said, ok we are out of: 6oz filet Sirloin tips Grilled chicken Fried chicken Roadkill And and and...... We should have left then and there. Ordered a Sirloin Asked for Medium Steak was burnt and dry. Not one did the waitress ask if it was ok, even after pushing it to the side... 65.00 meal with our drinks and would NEVER recommend this place to anyone... Let us save you the 65.00 lesson.... AVOID AT ALL COSTS read more

Stay away from the Cape Girardeau location of Texas Roadhouse. I go to them all over the country and I have never left on so dissatisfied and disrespected. There is clearly no leadership at this location and it shows from the top down. The kitchen "manager" JP is so unprofessional he doesn't even deserve to be the dish boy. Very sad how poorly this location is run. 100% will never return. read more

I've been to a lot of Texas Roadhouses but this one is special! While my experiences ave usually run middle of the road, this particular spot has some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. Gabie and April are a dynamic duo at the bar. They kept the conversation running while keeping the drinks cold. I really cannot compliment them enough. I was a little tepid at grabbing dinner in a chain restaurant tonight but they blew my expectations away. I will definitely be back read more

Worse run roadhouse I've ever visited. Management does not ever have enough food prepared for the amount of guest prime rib is never available after 6 pm on the weekends and they are always low on everything worst run one I've ever visited read more

The staff at Texas Roadhouse are the kindest and offer the best service in town. The manager, Darian, was so professional, genuine, and efficient -- he went out of his way to help me and to make sure my order was correct. I was exceedingly impressed by his service and what a great attitude he had. He went above and beyond to make sure my carry out order got to me on time and that all the elements were in the bag! The entire staff made me feel like a valued customer even in the middle of the dinner rush. If you want to eat great food among even better people, this is your place! read more

Went there for dinner with friends. Service was ok. Our server was great, friendly and fun! But service was quite slow, we waited a pretty decent amount for our food. When it came, it was mediocre at best. Everything was too salty. Not quite worth the price tag because they just put a piece of steak on the grill and excessively season it! read more

beware this place is a trap dont spend your money here!! wow how bad can it be. real bad. waited over 30 minutes for a drink after our steak was served all anyone could say was the bartender was behind but there was no one here. this dive took a long day and made it much worse. manager offered no solution and passed the buck. stay away from this texas roadhouse. most of them are great but this is beyond bad service and bad food. but they had 6 people at the hostess stand laughing and having a good time? man what a sad place hope to save people the bad experience. stay away read more

When visiting my family for the holidays, we decided to go out for a nice steak dinner. Instead of going to the familiar favorite Outback, we opted for something new and ended up at the Texas Roadhouse, conveniently located next to Cracker Barrel in Cape Girardeau and within a stone's throw of Highway 55. When we walked in, we saw some people waiting to be seated, which immediately gave us pause for concern since we were hungry and didn't feel like waiting for a half hour to get a table. We were told the wait would be about 15 minutes, but ended up being less than 10, which suited us just fine. While we waited we ate some peanuts, which were provided in miniature galvanized pails. We were also treated to country music playing over the speakers, which added a certain "down-home" ambiance that my parents seemed to like, though I would have been just as happy with silence. The menu here is definitely arranged around a certain laid-back, casual type of clientele, offering items like a "roadkill' burger and an assortment of fried appetizers. They also offer hot rolls with a honey/butter mixture, which was a nice touch and a bit more satisfying than simple slices of bread. The salad we had was satisfactory, though the caesar salad really looked quite plain and boring and only had a couple of croutons. Still, it tasted good and gave us something to munch on while waiting for our main course. The beer selection here is plentiful, though if you're looking for an imported lager or ale you'll be sorely disappointed. They have several flavors of Bud, Miller, and Michelob as well as Sam Adams, which I decided to try. It came in a big ol' tall mug, which prompted no argument from me and gave me something with which to wash down my buttered rolls. There appeared to be a small bar, though I couldn't tell if they offered cocktails as well as beer. I ordered the prime rib, which was a 12-oz cut, medium rare. The steak was very tender, though a tad heavy on the seasoning. I really do like to taste my meat, but feel as though this one had been slightly manipulated a bit. It was good - but different from a more 'naked' presentation you'll find at Outback and other steakhouses. The only minor complaint I have is that the amount of horseradish and dressing I received was insufficient for the amount of food I had to pair it with. They use little plastic cups but for some reason they were only partially filled, which left me scraping the bottom and wanting a bit more. I suppose they could be trying to cut costs, but really - how hard is it to fill up a cup to the top with dressing or horseradish? This minor quibble aside, this was an overall good experience. I still am not sure if I would go here instead of the Outback, but it's close enough in quality and price that I would definitely consider it. Bottom line: If you like country music, steak, and big beers the Texas Roadhouse could be right up your alley. read more
