It's been a few years since I've been here, but it was the perfect spot to kill time on a Sunday afternoon while my car was being serviced across the plaza. Even though it was busy, we lucked out and snagged two seats at the bar. Service was awesome, the bartender brought out those soft, warm, fresh rolls immediately with whipped sweet cinnamon butter. We shared an appetizer combo and everything came out fast. I think we caught a happy hour special because our drinks were only $8.50 and the whole bill was just $35. Such a great value! Also, I noticed they swapped the floor peanuts for complimentary bags at the bar now. Definitely more sanitary! My man is already planning a return trip for dinner to try the steaks he seen displayed by the entrance. I'm sure he'll love it! read more

Brian was our server today - outstanding service & a friendly employee. He is to be commended. The entire vibe is southern hospitality here, which makes for tough choices when ordering. Boneless ribs & steak are their staples, but don't sleep on their pulled pork sandwiches! Only drawback today was the strawberry cheesecake dessert was served frozen solid. Couldn't really enjoy it. (*shrugs*) Otherwise, as long as they are serving Angry Orchard, count me in. TIP: Try to go off hours if possible as the food is slammin good, and the crowds show up early so you could be waiting awhile. Avoid the wait by going early Sunday (12p-1p) or in the middle of the day during the week. Love this place & the soundtrack to boot; will be back. read more

If you're looking for a meal that hits the spot every single time, the Texas Roadhouse on Saw Mill Road is the place to be. I recently stopped in and was reminded why this spot is always buzzing. The Food * The Main Event: My steak was cooked to absolute perfection. You can see the gorgeous char and grill marks in the photo--it was juicy, seasoned just right, and melt-in-the-mouth tender. * The Sides: The sweet potato was a standout--perfectly baked and topped with a generous amount of marshmallow/cinnamon cream. Pair that with a side of fresh steamed broccoli and carrots, and you have a perfectly balanced plate. read more

I considered this place tops for steaks until now. Now I've pretty much given up on that. The last 2 times that I have come here and ordered my favorite, which is filet mignon it has not been good. Apparently when you order a larger (10 oz.) steak they feel that it;s a good idea to put some sort of weight on it while it cooks, presumably to make it cook faster. It also flattens out the steak and makes it far less juicy. It doesn't even look like a filet any more. The pieces that I have gotten also had some gristle and fat which is not typical for this cut of meat. When I go to other restaurants there is no waste from my filet. I can no longer recommend this place as there are far better choices in the area. It's generally an extremely busy place and parking is difficult as well. read more

The steaks are very well seasoned and cooked really well! Unfortunately they ran out of the porterhouse we wanted and the Mac n cheese is really not worth the up charge. It looks and tastes like kraft. The ROLLS are to die for, paired with that cinnamon butter. YUM!! Service was pretty good, no complaints. read more

I ordered a hand-cut sirloin medium rare and had to send it back three times (served medium, then medium well, then medium again).

The service was good the food was not, horrible rice cold food steaks full of fat as well as the chili. So very disappointed the best part was the appetizers. Step it up don't be so cheap for the price. read more

I recommend getting in the waiting list before arriving. Love the hot bread they bring to the table when they seat you! You can pick your steak before sitting or just order off the menu. The ribs and steaks are great. It's not a cheap meal, but very good. read more

Yummers, I couldn't wait to eat their fresh rolls w/ cinnamon butter. The rolls were so scrumptious,soft, & hot! The cinnamon butter melted right on the hot rolls! I ordered the filet mignon medallions(medium rare) w/ smothered mushrooms,steamed veggies(carrots & broccoli), & Mac and cheese. The waitress was ok. I felt like she had a little bit of an attitude. I forgot her name unfortunately. My food came out in a bit. I remember the Mac & cheese being baked but I could be wrong. It was ok would have been better baked. My filet mignon was cooked perfectly to my liking! It was so flavorful. The smothered mushrooms were very flavorful! The veggies were kind of hard & didn't have enough flavor. I added black pepper to give it a better taste. The meal I ordered came w/ a pilaf of rice. I didn't really like or care for it. Inside was pretty busy & loud. There was music playing over the speakers which was cool! This isn't my 1st rodeo I've been to this location numerous times! I'll be backkkk! read more

Great food. Great service. Very busy location. Right off 95. Get there early to get the early bird.

The food tonight is just fabulous. I got a 20oz rib eye with out of this world mushrooms, mashed with gravy and buttered corn. My friend got a 12oz prime rib and the same sides. Every item we ate was just delicious! The meat was cooked exactly as ordered, and the wait staff were very attentive and pleasant. We seated immediately even though the restaurant was crowded and it wasn't loud despite the crowd. Just a wonderful experience! read more

Eh. Not great..but definitely not bad either. The Margarita was awesome. Steak was good.. Salad was boring. And we hated the rolls. ..too soft & chewy& don't care for cinnamon butter. Nothing was GRRREAT. Except the staff. read more

I enjoy going to this restaurant a few times a year. From the yeast rolls to the porterhouse steak everything is good and consistent. It can get pretty busy on the weekends. I learned to get on the waitlist online 30 minutes before arriving. I'm usually seated as soon as I pull up. Our favorite is the porterhouse steak. Twice I've had the server Liv. She is phenomenal, attentive, and sweet. I also like the fact the managers walk around consistently maling sure the customers are pleased with the food and service. read more

We booked a reservation online and the estimated time was 15-25 minutes. We weren't even in the car 5 minutes before we got an alert our table was ready, went inside and were sat promptly. The place was packed! (Per usual) our server was attentive, and friendly. Glad to see they're offering peanuts again, however now you get a bucket for the shells and still cant toss them on the floor. Fried pickles appetizer was good, i got the steak kabob for my meal which comes with rice and one side. All in all a good experience read more

My family loves stakes and ribs. These are not some of my favorite things. We went to Texas Roadhouse, where I knew my options of dishes not including the above mentioned would be limited. There was a short wait to get seated. When we arrived at our table, they already had their warm bread and the most delightful, cinnamon flavored butter. I'm not kidding, but I don't even care that nothing in their menu is for me, as long as I can have that bread and butter! I got the grilled shrimp and the fried pickles. The shrimp was pretty small, there were five of them on a stick. It was grilled and basic. This was ok! The fried pickles were a bit of a change from the fries. They were flavorful, crunchy and crispy. There was also corn and other sides that were sides of the stake. My family had a feast with all the meat. This is for sure not my favorite place to dine, but I made it work. I'm glad to say I'm the only one who didn't overeat at Texas Roadhouse. read more

Surprise, surprise ...who would think that the early dine special at Texas Roadhouse would actually be a fairly good experience. We ordered two sirloin steak dinners. They were each 6 ounces and probably a bit better than a hamburger. We missed ordering our filet mignon, but considering how poorly the last experience went, we thought we would try the early special this time. Just like the regular menu, it came with two sides. We had the salad, a potato and unlimited rolls. The restaurant was clean and well organized. Our server, Shannon did a great job. She was friendly, professional, and just a joy. She anticipated her customer's needs and was on top of her game. It was also interesting to see how many people took advantage of the early dine special. For the price, you really couldn't beat the value. read more

We ordered the onion ring and it came out fast was very good but then I ordered the prime rib which was absolutely the worst prime rib I had ever had in my life. It was so tough I couldn't even cut it with the sharp knife I had. Last time I will ever eat there. read more

The service could be improved, they should always make sure when somebody walks in that they have bread. Also, the service should not be touching the bread with there hands. Customers can see that they are touching surfaces and then touching bread to put in the basket. Then servers should not be having attitude towards the customers when we ask for the bread after being seated for 45 minutes p read more

I only have good things to say about my recent visit to Texas Roadhouse. Our server Greg gave us the best service we could've ever asked for. He was very attentive and made sure we were comfortable. His recommendations were spot on and we enjoyed our visit. The food came out fairly quickly and our orders were perfect. This Texas Roadhouse is very big with many tables. Despite how busy, we were seated very quickly. I look forward to our next visit. read more

My husband I probably go to this location once a month. The food is consistently good. This time I wanted to give a shout out to our server, Genesis for the excellent service!

Thank you, Genesis, we really hope to be seated in your section again! read more

Reserved a table online. Got a text we were on the list. Waited only to find out they lost our reservation. When we finally got a table we were rushed through our drink order and half of us didn't get to order apps until the drinks came. Had to steal straws from another table and ask one of the runners for rolls and butter. After the apps arrived our server apologized for the wait and put in our dinner order. The place was extremely busy and the food was good. read more

Foods: 4.5/5 Drinks: did not order Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 Amazing food and service. Let's be honest, we are ALL here for the buttery and delicious bread . They are absolutely worth the hype and so yummy. The spread is absolutely phenomenal even though I don't like the taste of cinnamon, their spread is to die for. The best part is you can order them as many as you want! Their foods are great as well and very affordable. I got an 6oz steak with mashed potatoes and butter corn. Perfect combination! Highly recommended. read more

We went here for Sunday dinner. This place is hopping on a Sunday! We love that you can add your name to the wait list online. We get there, check in from the car and wait until we get a text, which is only a few minutes. Our waitress, KJ, was friendly and took our full order right away just because we already knew what we wanted and it was a busy night. She didn't write anything down but everything was correct! I was impressed. She did her best to be attentive. Food was good, as usual. My husband's steak was cooked correctly. We always leave full with left over tater skins and bread, of course. Cannot beat those fresh rolls with cinnamon butter!! Its a loud place. Country music playing, birthday celebrants " saddling up!" A good place for drinks, streaks, large salads. Bring the kids. Nobody cares if they are loud. Get the tator skins or the onion blossom. Always a good choice. read more

I would like to call this Interruptions: Interruption 1. I would like to start this by saying that I have frequented this establishment a fair amount of times, but this past Sunday I decided to visit it along with my daughter for an early dinner. Well they said it would be about 30 minutes, which was fine. We were called in about 20 minutes, we were seated and a young man came and introduced himself. We ordered our beverages, I had a strawberry lemonade and when I got it, it was as clear as water with a hint of pink (slight hint) and once I tasted it I asked if he could please remake it, which he did and this time it tasted like strawberry lemonade. Interruption 2. We ordered our steaks and potatoes, and along comes #2, a waitress was walking by with a tray, some how she drops a glass of sprite in our direction, it wets my daughter's pants her shoes, my legs and my shoes. They apologized and cleaned it up. During this time we were still waiting for our dinner. There were 2 tables empty behind us when we came in but by this time they had been filled, believe it or not they had their food. Interruption 3 By this time both parties at the other tables were eating, we were not. They finished and left and another couple came, order and was eating. We asked the waiter about our food, he said oh, I'm sorry I should have told you we are a little backed up because we are so busy. "Huh" Are we being "Punked" Sir can you please check on our food. He said, Oh are you guys just coming from Church, (Can't make it up). We said please just check on our food. He never comes back. After about 10 mins. We said our FINAL GOODBYES to Texas Roadhouse.

You can never go wrong with Texas Roadhouse! I love their steak, loaded baked potato, and a side Cesar salad. That's my go-to order. The service is always fast and friendly. The cocktails are good, beer is ice cold, and it's just an overall fun and enjoyable place to eat! read more

Great service, excellent food!! Our server was Meg and she was very nice!! Will definitely go back again.

Came here for the bread 10/10 would recommend. The bread is so goood. It's easy rewarm too at home. Great service. Clean.

Have had 6oz serloin in the past and meat has been very good. On April 30, 2025, I ordered it again. This time, the meat was full of grissle

Texas Roadhouse is very popular. This one in West Haven is no exception. Fun western ambiance with a lively bar area. Service is friendly and often attentive. Signature dinner rolls with cinnamon butter are addictive. The restaurant always seems to be packed. Just know that no matter what you order you are not going there to watch your calories!! Our food, with exception of the chili and side of green beans (both good), was poor to below average. The chili was good but barely warm. The ribs were obviously reheated, lukewarm, and really dry without much flavor. We had to ask for BBQ sauce and used it to cover up as much of the bland dryness as we could. There's a big sign that advertises the ribs won first place in some contest in Texas. It wasn't these. The chicken fried chicken with cream gravy was also disappointing. Very thin chicken breast that tasted like a big chicken McNugget. A bust. They do have a nice way for you to pay at your table with a device. It was very convenient but the biggest problem I have is they apply your tip to the meal AND the sales tax. Frankly, that is ripping people off. There should not be any Tip applied to a government sales tax. Texas roadhouse management should be correcting this immediately, but since they make a point of saying that's what they're doing on the device my guess is they won't bother. No restaurant should do this. My recommendation is for customers to reduce there tip accordingly so it gets as close to a deserved service tip on just the food and drinks. read more

The food and drinks were good, everything you'd expect at a Texas Roadhouse. This review, however, is because it was honestly the best service I had ever had. Our waitress Genesis was fantastic. She made my birthday a wonderful day and it felt like a friend bringing food not a waitress. I would honestly come back just for the service read more

Don't patronize this restaurant on a Sat or Sun during peak hours if you value your hearing or like to eat your meal in a somewhat hospitable atmosphere. We are long-time customers of these restaurants and well aware of the generally high noise level generated by patrons, music, etc., however we were totally unprepared for the abrupt increase in the volume of music that occurred while we ate our dinner at 6:00 PM this past Saturday, and at first thought there was a technical issue with the sound system. Thinking they would correct it or shut it off at any moment and unaware that they had started a new thing (to us), with the wait staff line dancing in the middle of the restaurant (our of our sightline), the incredibly loud music continued for several minutes. My ears hurt so badly, I had to leave the restaurant. It was only later when I returned that I found out that this event is supposed to happen several times throughout the dining hours (on Sat and Sun I assume?). This level of noise is excessive and is damaging to the hearing of this establishment's customers and especially its employees. In fact, I believe it exceeds the Federal OSHA regulations. If we return it will be during the week and not at the dinner hour. We enjoy the food, and the wait staff have always been great but if we wanted a dance show we would patronize a dinner theater! read more
