Is Texas Roadhouse Trying to Break the Bank or What?
Let's talk about Texas Roadhouse. You know, that place where the peanuts are free but the steak prices might make you question your life choices.
The Great Steak Debate
I mean, I love a good steak as much as the next person. But when I see prices on a menu that could buy a small island, I start to wonder if I’m really that hungry. It’s like they’re charging by the ounce, not by the pound. And don’t even get me started on the sides. A baked potato that could double as a life raft? Come on, now.
The Wednesday Wonder
Okay, so they do have some decent deals. That Wednesday $9.99 special is a godsend if you can navigate the crowds. It's like Black Friday, but for steak. But let's be real, you're probably going to end up ordering three sides because, well, you can. And then your bill is suddenly back to "I-could-have-bought-a-car" territory.
The Peanut Predicament
I gotta give it to them, the peanuts are a nice touch. It’s like they’re saying, "Hey, we know our prices are ridiculous, so here, have some free nuts to distract you." But let's be honest, you end up shelling out more for drinks to wash down all those peanuts. It's a vicious cycle, I tell ya.
The Verdict
Texas Roadhouse? It's a rollercoaster of emotions. One minute you're drooling over that sizzling steak, the next you're questioning your life choices. But hey, if you're feeling flush and want to treat yourself, go for it. Just be prepared to mortgage your house.
How-To Texas Roadhouse Survival Guide
