Peek Inside the New Texarkana Texas Roadhouse Before it Opens
Out with the old in with the new, one of Texarkana's most popular restaurants is opening its doors on Thursday, July 25, 2024.
Texas Roadhouse Opens on Thursday
After 26 years the Texas Roadhouse on St. Michael Drive has a brand new location at 2041 Mall Drive. The beloved family restaurant known for its fresh-hand-cut steaks opens to the general public at 3 p.m. this Thursday.
There will be a special invitation-only event for family and friends on Wednesday to allow employees' families and friends to get a first glimpse of the new restaurant and its food. The new Texas Roadhouse will have more parking space and additional parking next door in a portion of the Haven Home formerly Bryces. Depending on how the restaurant business goes they could expand the parking lot on the backside of the building if needed.
"We are super excited to continue the Texas Roadhouse tradition in the Texarkana community and surrounding area, said Marketing Director, Kerry Nienkamp.
The new restaurant boasts a much bigger seating area with more tables, booths, and tables. Paperless checkout customers pay at the table.
The owners wanted to tie in the Texarkana community with murals throughout the building that give it a hometown look and feel.
There are new caricatures of country music artists from yesterday to today including caricatures of NASCAR drivers that surround the bar and restaurant. All Texas Roadhouse locations pay homage to the American Indian with a beautiful mural wall painting.
One of the highlights will be the Folds of Honor honoring our men and women in the military near the entrance. The wall is still in progress but when completed it will feature pictures from the military along with the large smart TV that will also feature pictures sent in from our armed forces.
There is also going to be a wall honoring first responders and police officers, you are encouraged to send them a picture if you want them included on the wall.
I especially loved the huge Lone Star above the bar which represents the great state of Texas.
Kitchen to Go
One of the highlights is the state-of-the-art kitchen to-go, drive-thru window, and walk-up window when picking up food to go.
The kitchen area is now all digital so that will help speed up the process when ordering food in the restaurant or to go.
Kerry tells me that they are bringing back line dancing at the Texas Roadhouse where servers periodically will show off their line dancing skills. You will also be able to request a line dance if you prefer which would be fun for a birthday or anniversary.
There's an old saying, "Build it and they will come," well, I don't think that's going to be a problem, the Texas Roadhouse in Texarkana continues to rank inside the Top 25 week after week as one of the busiest restaurants in its chain across the country.
The Texas Roadhouse has a long-standing tradition in Texarkana and is looking forward to serving the Texarkana area for many more years to come. Visit their new location 2041 Mall Drive next door to their sister company Bubba's 33 starting on Thursday.
Go to their Facebook page for updates or the Texas Roadhouse website.
