Texas Roadhouse
How does the remote waitlist feature work?
You can add your name to the waitlist from home, and the app will send you a reliable 10-minute heads-up text when your table is almost ready. This saves you from waiting in a crowded lobby and lets you time your arrival perfectly.
Can I customize my steak order and save favorite items?
Yes, the app allows you to customize your steak (like medium-rare with extra seasoning) and save your favorite orders for quick reordering. This makes repeat orders fast and easy, though browsing through sides and extras can be a bit sluggish.
Why does the app ask me to re-enter my card details for different orders?
The app doesn't elegantly save multiple payment methods, so you may need to re-enter card info for separate orders. To avoid this, try saving a single primary card and use it for all orders until the feature is improved.
The app stutters or lags when I switch between screens—what can I do?
This is a known issue, especially when rapidly switching between the waitlist and rewards pages. Closing and reopening the app usually clears the stutter, and ensuring you have the latest version installed can help reduce these hiccups.
How does the Texas Roadhouse app compare to the Outback Steakhouse app?
Both offer remote waitlists and ordering, but Texas Roadhouse's curbside pickup is notably faster and more reliable based on tests. However, Outback's app tends to have a smoother menu browsing experience and better support for multiple saved payment methods.
