Last Updated: February 15, 2026
The Texas Roadhouse Early Dine is one of the best-kept secrets in the casual dining world. Typically available Monday through Thursday from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM (hours may vary by location), this special program lets you enjoy the same legendary hand-cut steaks, fall-off-the-bone ribs, and made-from-scratch sides at prices $3–$5 lower than regular dinner menu pricing. It's the smart way to dine at one of America's favorite steakhouses without breaking the bank.
Whether you're a budget-conscious family looking for an affordable weeknight dinner or a steak enthusiast wanting to try premium cuts at discounted prices, the Early Dine menu offers incredible value. Every meal includes your choice of two made-from-scratch sides and Texas Roadhouse's famous fresh-baked bread with honey cinnamon butter — the same legendary rolls that have made them famous.
