Texas Roadhouse

Marty · March 6, 2003

My wife and I stopped at the new Texas Roadhouse just south of Denton on I-35 to eat last Saturday. Very UNT friendly! Mean Green helmet and jersey (#34) and Lady Eagle basketball jersey on your left as you enter and a huge collage on the north wall of Brad Kassell and various others(cheerleaders, etc). The hostess and waitress were both UNT students as I'm sure were most of them. The foods not bad either.

Sounds like a good reason to go for a visit. As more new shops and restaurants spring up along I-35 in Denton, we need to encourage them to show some UNT spirit, and tell them when they do good!

Texas Roadhouse is the best. It has become a second home to some of my friends on Thursday nights...its so bad they have their own reserved spot on the bar....

We actually will be up there tonight.

Marty, that is funny you posted this cause the other night I saw that huge North Texas mural for the first time and I loved it and thought about posting that. Its really good. It has the stadium in the backgroud with some of the players, the cheerleaders, I think the NT flag and some other stuff in the foreground. Lots of school spirit!

Too bad they don't have $1 margaritas anymore.....

Is this the mural that has the huge Big West patch on Brad Kassell?

Great place to eat too!!

Marty · March 6, 2003

yeah, it's the same picture as the one that hangs at Fouts.

We all need to visit the Texas Roadhouse and express our thanks and support this business.

Also, in the bar, one of the paintings is of Joe Greene in a NT uni, a Steelers uni and in a Cardinal hat...all very good replicas of real pictures.

I know it was posted that this is on I35 just south of town, but are there any better directions? Such as what exit off of I35, cross streets, etc... I am guessing by the name that they serve the standard burgers, steaks, chicken, etc...

I am not sure if there is an exit past Mayhill (if there is take that one), but I would take the Mayhill exit (by the hospital) and stay on the service road. Continue going North on the service road and TR will be on your right. Hope that helps..........I am sure somebody could explain it better than me.

Its right next to and set a little further back than the On The Border. There is also a Jefferson Commons Apartments right next to it on the other side I think. Anyway the On The Border is a little more visible from the highway than the Roadhouse is.

If you're on Loop 288, turn south on Colorado (across from Target) and go about 1/2 mile and you can come in from the back side of Texas Roadhouse.

They even have a website...I guess for people as dorky as me who look to see if they do!!!!..... Texas Roadhouse It makes me hungry

A national chain like Texas Roadhouse (140 locations in 28 states) knows that it is good business to support the local University. Why is it so hard for the locally owned businesses to do the same? They should be ashamed everytime they take a students dollar!

Chris_Roose · March 11, 2003

It is bad when they don't support the local school....even worse when they appear to support your main competition. Down here in Waco we have George's, which can be seen in the latest Maxim magazine as Bar O' the Month. Several months ago they got new t-shirts for the staff to wear.....in maroon and burnt orange. Now the Texas Roadhouse in Waco does do a decent job of having Baylor stuff on the walls. Anyway, just thought I would throw my two cents in about area restaurants supporting the local school.

My brother and I used to go down to George's Bar....

I couldn't resist. Everytime I go to Waco, I make it a point to go to George's.

Chris_Roose · March 11, 2003

George's is a good place. Good food, good beer.......ugly shirts!

JayDub · March 11, 2003

But have you ever had a Big 'O' of Dr. Pepper?

Chris_Roose · March 12, 2003

Can't say that I have...and its been over a year since I have had any Dr. Pepper, Coke, etc. So I won't be having one anytime soon.

jbchis · March 14, 2003

This may be a dumb question, so who better than me to ask it. Is Texas Roadhouse affiliated with Logan's? Or did Logan's change their name?

Marty · March 15, 2003

Although very similar, Logan's and Texas Roadhouse are seperate restaurants. I'm not sure if there are any Logans left in the DFW metroplex, I know the one in Grapevine went out of business and is now a Hooters.
