I've taken friends and family twice in the last month to celebrate birthdays. I've told our waitresses about my daughter's birthday and, just last night, about a friend's birthday. For some reason, they look at you awkwardly and don't have a response. I noticed that both times. So something must be up with ownership not wanting to honor Texas Roadhouse's standard birthday celebration, where they sing to you and put you on a saddle. Honestly, I could care less about the free dessert or appetizer or whatever it is! It was more about having them sing to them and embarrassing the heck out of him. I think all other TEXAS ROADHOUSE LOCATIONS even offer a free appetizer or a birthday dessert, like most restaurants (their competitors). But at this Cookeville location, all I got was a weird stare both times in the last month. Needless to say, they never came to our table. I'm not sure what's up with that, but we went the month before that, two months ago, to celebrate my granddaughter's birthday, as it's one of her favorite places for bread, lol. That time, they came to our table. It was a much larger crowd as well, but I'm not sure what's going on here. I can tell you, we didn't go for the freebies. I chose the place because it's usually a good meal. The steaks are hit and miss though like last night, but I can tell you, after last night, it's put a very sour taste in my mouth! It was my friend's birthday, and he was there with his wife. I really wanted to embarrass him by having them come to the table, so I reached out to our waitress to have them sing to him (A TEXAS ROADHOUSE STANDARD). And they never showed up! I think, moving forward, rather than knowing they don't care to help us celebrate a family member's or friend's birthday, I'll choose a different restaurant. We have many choices here in Cookeville. But I still can't get over the blank stare both times! It would be admirable if the owners would reach out to us to make it right. Heck, we even see them at church! read more

Texas Roadhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

Our go-to when we want a good steak at a decent price. Also, make sure you are in the mood for an upbeat, rocking atmosphere. For a quiet, peaceful, candlelit dinner, consider a different restaurant. The staff is friendly and helpful. The restaurant is set up so that large crowds can be processed efficiently and waits are kept to a minimum. They have a nice check-in system where you get in line on your phone and by the time you get there, you have already moved up the line! I am partial to the prime rib, and have also enjoyed the sirloin and ribeye steaks. The cooks know their way around a steak and it is always perfectly cooked to order. A very few times, the steak has some gristle and was a bit tough, but most of the time they serve great quality meat. There is not a bad seat in the house, the staff seems to be spread out to cover all areas. We have also sat in the bar, another option if the dining area has a wait and you don't want to wait. read more

Ok hear me out.... The food is always great the steak is the reason we go here to have dinner. However the sweet tea is just not sweet tea... there is a list of places in town top to bottom and this is one of the lower rated places and I understand why. However the food is fresh, tasteful and I would order under your preference of the cook. It does tend to be closer to done than medium. The servers for the most part are prompt and kind but can be dismissive or don't see you staring at them from across the room because it does get busy. I personally like to go for a great lunch date or family dinner. But parties over 6 don't fit well in booths. We were put in the corner by the bar and practically had elbows in each others plates. read more

The food was amazing as always, but I have to say the true treat this evening was our waiter Jacob. He was very friendly, personal and a little funny. lol. Sweet young man that is a definite asset to Roadhouse. THANKS JACOB read more

The steak melts in your mouth ! Hot fresh and delicious! Real high end dining experience! If you love steak you should try it!

I was extremely impressed with this location. I have had Texas Roadhouse many times and the food has not come out as fresh and flavorful as this location. I really wished I complimented whoever made the salads we were raving about how this has got to be the best salad and lettuce that we've had at any sit down restaurant for some time. The sirloin was tender and cooked to perfection and the sweet potatoes were made perfectly. The server was quick and attentive to our needs and the manager was friendly and invested in making sure we had a great experience. We had a wonderful experience here. read more

The service was quick despite the busy time we are. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Food was great.

Food is ALWAYS GOOD but the boy with the polished fingernails WAS RUDE. We haven't been to this particular one since moving here a few years ago. When he threw my husbands salad onto the table was rude and we don't even know why. So after that I began to notice his/her demeanor towards others and us. If I was the manager I'd be looking at this one REAL CLOSE. I have not problem with anyone wearing polish but darn he was RUDE. read more

Buyer beware‼ Ordered the Dallas Filet, which is a Filet Minion, have ordered it many times and never been disappointed until now!! They plopped some long flat thing in front of my husband and I that was as tough as leather. Whatever this crap piece of meat was it was Not a Filet Minion! Asked for the manager , after about 15 minutes this woman finally showed up & tried to blame it on the Supplier⁉⁉ No Sorry, just BS EXCUSES!! Have Never Gone back!! read more

Yes Yelpers, Texas Roadhouse in Cookeville, Tn very good service. Went here on a Friday night and the crowd was already there. Went here on did the join the waitlist and got right in. Food was pretty good, came out hot and fresh. Got my usual the chicken portabella and mushrooms with a loaded baked potato and the seasoned rice. The serving is smaller but still had to take it home. Of course we ordered the combo appetizer. My wife had the country fried chicken with mashed potatoes. We were quite happy and will be going back. read more

One of my top 5 favorite food chains. I absolutely love Texas Roadhouses Portobello Chicken. Always great service and great food! And their rolls are yummy too! read more

If you are going to eat at this location make sure it is in dining room. To go orders are terrible. Requests are not honored, food not prepared as ordered and you are left with inedible food and wasted money. If you contact them about issues no one responds. read more

My friends and I went here for lunch and my friend ordered a Ribeye, which came out well done even though he asked for medium rare. After informing the waitress, the steak was recooked, brought out to us by the manager and when we cut into it, it was raw. After recooking it a THIRD time, it was still not medium rare. Additionally, I ordered a sirloin medium and it came out more like medium rare and extremely chewy. We informed the manager of this as well who gave us a discount for the meal, but then proceeded to make a comment to another waiter who laughed while looking at us. Our waitress was extremely kind, but management overall seems to be lacking in ability, competence, and general professionalism. Would not recommend this Texas Roadhouse at all. read more

Great food as always! Always good to know the consistency from state to state stays the same. Thank you!

Loved it... First time here and will be back. Service was superb, quick an efficient. Food was hot and plentiful; I especially loved the line dancing by the staff--- They accept cards and sanitize between customers, throug iouhly.. We had steaks of course and they were tender and juicy. I only ordered a side of shrimp and will have to get more the next time; excellent taste. read more

Always friendly and efficient, food is much better than other nearby steak places. Usually pretty quick to get in and out as well.

alexander was a very good server he helped all the way thru while we was eating and was so very nice

I ate at this place, and it was an amazing experience! For starters, their rolls are the best rolls made at a restaurant to this date, and the blooming onion is amazing to eat if you dip it in the sauce they give you with it. Now onto the main course, the Steak was a satisfying chewing experience, and the fries are pretty good as they are. With good quality and very nice employees, Texas Roadhouse is not only the best place to get good food, but it is undeniably, one of the BEST restaurants you can find in Cookeville, TN! read more

Texas Roadhouse - What I ate at Texas Roadhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

Order to go. Responded to text as per their instructions waited 20 minutes with no service. Store didn't seem to care at all

First time in this restaurant, have been to Texas Roadhouse many times in different cities, this one is been open for less than a year. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience at Texas Roadhouse. This was no exception. We were promptly seated, our table was very clean. The waitress immediately came over and greeted us and was very bubbly and pleasant. Our food was at our table less than 10.min after we ordered. Our waitress checked on us pretty much every time she was going by that she didn't have another's table in her hand. Food was very tasty, prices were great. 2 Adults and 2 kids, drinks, etc $30 + the tip. What's not to love!! read more

Texas Roadhouse - a view of the dining area - Steakhouses Near Me - Cookeville, Tennessee

We love Texas Roadhouse! The drinks are delicious and the food is spot on! It's a fun place to eat!

Late night dining and we were greeted with a warm and inviting greeting by Brock our server. His genuine enthusiasm and passion for his job was evident. He went above and behind to make the dining experience more pleasant and enjoyable. He apologized numerous times for the lack of dirty dishes willing to hand clean them. The food choices recommended was amazing however his kitchen staff didn't live up to his expectations and he again apologized for the kitchen staff and offer to make it right in whatever capacity. He continued to smile show great hospitality and respect. Great young man to have as a part of your establishment. His enthusiasm was far more than his boss. She wasn't as outgoing or even pleasant to speak to as we were expressing the greatest in Brock. Train him to be your next store manager. Differently see him thriving in the industry. Thank you young man for showing the respect dignity and ethics. read more

Had my 8th anniversary in Cookeville TN. It was the worst steak I have ever had. Ordered ribeye and got sirloin steak.asked for medium got medium rare. I have never been so disappointed in a place and they seem like it's not a big deal. 125.00 gone to hell I will never recommend to anyone 1 star read more

Great food and great service! We go once or twice a month and the food and service are really good. Very fun and enjoyable place to eat.

Came to meet some friends for dinner, and our table is absolutely frigid to the point of discomfort, and the music is incredibly loud. Spoke with manager Taylor, and he basically blew me off. Food is great, as was our waitress...but this experience was not the best. read more

What a great spot! I was in town for business and wandered out for burger and a beer. Ended up sitting at the bar and met Sarah the bar tender. She was Amazing! Single hand-idly ran the bar. commanded the bar like I've never seen- not an empty seat- trust me that was a feat- and for me that's saying something. The bar nor the tables had to wait for a drink. Warm and attentive. Hats off! For the best service and atmosphere, and really good food at a good value, this is the place. Definitely will make this my goto spot for future. read more

I ordered a Texas Size Combo Filet 6oz and Ribs, medium, with tops and sides and a grilled shrimp sidekick TO GO for my 70th birthday dinner. When I got home and opened everything up, the filet was burnt, dry, and well done as well as tough. The ribs were the same. Not even going to try the shrimp. It would be one thing if I lived in Cookeville, but I'm 12 miles/20 minutes away in the country and get 12 MPG. I will return it all, and I expect a full refund and an equal value gift card if they ever want me back. I could not have been more disappointed. I guess this is the kind of crap all these restaurants do with their "ToGo" orders because they know you're not going to check it out before you leave. Quality should be no different from what is served when you sit down in the restaurant for the meal. Absolutely no excuse for this kind of crap. The next time I will go inside, be seated, place the order, then tell them to pack it all up to go if it's to my liking. read more

The last thing Cookeville needed was ANOTHER steakhouse, so when Texas Roadhouse opened I wasn't expecting any difference between the other several steakhouses here but boy was I wrong! I've been twice and both times my steak was cooked perfecting and was the best steak I've ever had, I know that's a bold statement but it's true. The sides are also delicious, the side salads are fresh and HUGE and the green beans are outstanding with so much flavor you wouldn't even know you're eating something healthy. Don't let the full parking lot scare you away either because they will get you seated super fast! Will definitely be coming back more than a few times. read more

Excellent service! Our server, Faith was fabulous! She made sure we were well taken care of. Did not have to request anything....refills, extra rolls, to go boxes....all done with intention! Makes your dining experience that much more pleasant when the restaurant is well staffed, everyone was friendly, and the manager made his rounds as well! Best part....food was tasty, served HOT & nice portion sizes! If we lived closer, it would be a restaurant I'd visit again! Not all steak houses are the same....great management, staff & chef/cooks! Driving our hour home with full bellies! read more

We ate here last night (on a Saturday) and it was packed. We had to wait two hours for a table, so we went and did a little shopping after getting our reservation. Then they sent a text when our table was ready. This was our first trip ever to a Texas Roadhouse restaurant, and we were not disappointed. Josh, our waiter, was awesome and very helpful. He also kept our drinks refilled and dropped by every few minutes to check on us. We had the bacon cheese fries appetizer, and they also brought a basket of fresh rolls with some type of cinnamon butter to the table when we first sat down. However, we didn't care for the butter. The rolls were delicious though, as was our appetizer. I had the road kill (which was a chopped steak) with a baked potato and house salad. It came with onions, mushrooms, and cheese on top, but with me on the Migraine diet I couldn't eat all that; so I ordered mine plain. It was amazing without anything on it! My son got the chicken tenders and steak fries, which he said were delicious; but he had already filled up on the rolls and appetizer, and had to bring most of his home. My daughter had the country-fried steak with white gravy on top and a side of green beans and mashed potatoes. She said hers was wonderful as well. My boyfriend had the 8 ounce sirloin and shrimp with mashed potatoes and corn. He said the steak was the most tender one he has ever eaten, and the shrimp were seasoned perfectly. All the staff were wearing masks, but they weren't seating guests apart, as every table and the bar was full. We wore our masks to and from the table, but very few others were. We noticed they did a special thing regarding a wooden stand and saddle for guests celebrating birthdays, which we thought was neat. Also whenever a certain song would play, several of the waiters and waitresses would line dance in the middle of the restaurant. We really enjoyed watching that! The prices were great too. Normally for what all we get at most steak restaurants, our bill is $100 or more. So we were pleasantly surprised to see it was only $75 here. We will definitely be back. I recommend if you plan to go before the new wears off, you call ahead or reserve a table online, so you are having to sit and wait hours for a table. They also do carry out, and it seemed to be just a popular as dine-in. read more

The service was ok, always a nice atmosphere when we go in. But the food could've been cooked better. Had asked for a 12oz medium rare steak, it wasn't cooked right or seasoned enough. Asked for sautéed mushrooms to be added, they were very dry & no sauce. Had asked for a loaded baked potato, I just got a regular. For future reference, Just check on you're food before eating it!! read more

I have had very good food here in the past but today was not good. I placed order online for curbside for the steakhouse filet salad . Had to wait but they had a large order ahead of me so that is understandable. However, when my order finally came out about 15 min late, there were no utensils, no extra dressing for the salad as requested, no bacon bits or onion on the salad, no bread. Also I had to sort thru the salad to discard old brown lettuce. Not a $20 salad. Probably won't go back read more

5 Stars are for JT our server. Been here twice recently and was our server both times and did amazing. Food was great, came out hot and in a timely manner. Drinks were always full, always kept bread full. I worked for Roadhouse for many years and he exemplifies what being a legendary roadie is all about, great job! read more
