I completely agree with both of your points. We went twice to the one in our area. Both times the music was so increcibly loud and the food was so salty we couldn't even finish our meals. No desire to give them another try.
I work for Texas Roadhouse. You can order your potato with no salt, and your meat with lite or no seasoning. As for the music, we do keep our music louder than most. It is meant to be toe tapping 🕺🕺🕺

I can't remember the last time I ever ate at a franchise restaurant.

@MG Chris Do you have any pull regarding the music? We went one time shortly after the one near us opened up and we've never been back. My SO and I gave up trying to have a conversation. We didn't linger like we normally do when eating out...so no dessert for us. We couldn't get out of there fast enough. It was a disappointing experience.

I love Texas Roadhouse! I happen to love the loud atmosphere because it's sort of like a party. I don't like quiet restaurants. I mean I don't like it when kids are crying or screaming, that's not what I mean, but I like a restaurant with a fun party vibe.

No, it is company policy the music has to be set at a certain level. You should have taken a dessert to go! Our desserts are so good and that is another secret…we don't want people to linger. Technically, they don't want dessert offered. They want people to leave. We are so busy we need the tables turned as quickly as possible.

I was just kidding, but that is funny. Well, the tactic works!
We were there for lunch and there weren't that many people. I'm sure it's busier for dinner. My SO and I like to enjoy a multi course meal. We prefer smaller restaurants but thought we'd give it a try.

I do not care for the Texas Roadhouse near us at all. LOUD, obnoxious and the food is not that great. We have a gift card from there and it has been sitting in the drawer for several years. I should just give it away.
Fortunately we have several locally owned steakhouses that we go to. They have much, much better food and atmosphere.

I understand your point @ID2 , however, the franchises are usually owned by someone local...the employees are all local as well.
That franchise owner has paid and probably invested his life into this endeavor. If he 'doesn't care', he loses big time and all the employees are out of a job.
