My family has been to many steakhouse chains, including Texas Roadhouse.
Terri Peters
I've visited many major US steakhouse chains with my husband and two teenagers.
From a value standpoint, we liked Outback Steakhouse best — we got lots of food (and wine) for $165.
The most memorable steakhouse was The Capital Grille, where our extravagant meal cost nearly $500.
My family never ate at chain restaurants until recently when we started trying ones my teens had heard about on TikTok or from friends.
We've now eaten everywhere from Olive Garden to Bahama Breeze, but our favorite chains to try have been steakhouses.
Forever a fan of a great glass of cabernet with a steak and some classic sides, I've taken my husband and kids to places like LongHorn Steakhouse, Ruth's Chris Steak House, Outback Steakhouse, Texas Roadhouse, and The Capital Grille.
Although one has been a clear favorite for me so far, almost every meal has been top-notch and has made me a believer in the consistency and predictability of a good steakhouse chain.
We felt we got the best bang for our buck at Outback Steakhouse.
Outback had some crowd-favorite offerings.

Chains like Texas Roadhouse, LongHorn Steakhouse, and Outback Steakhouse felt similar in price point.
On average, it cost my party of four around $160 to eat at each, but the food at Outback was the hands-down favorite for everyone in my party.
Its complimentary brown bread was the best we've had, our steaks were melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and we loved the classic Bloomin' Onion appetizer.
My family of four got an appetizer, entreés, two glasses of wine, and two desserts for $165. At the time, we ordered more than we'd normally eat, so I know we could return and spend even less while still getting a really good meal.
Ruth's Chris had the best classic steakhouse sides.
We loved trying a range of side dishes at Ruth's Chris.
Terri Peters
Although Ruth's Chris was one of the more pricey steakhouses we've visited, our $500 meal felt worth it for the classy atmosphere, delicious food, and impressive wine list.
The chain's side dishes were particularly impressive. My favorite steakhouse side dish is creamed spinach, and the tasty version at Ruth's Chris was everything I could hope for.
The mashed potatoes we had there were also superb, as were the sauteéd mushrooms — another steakhouse staple.
We'd absolutely return here for a special occasion.
Eating at LongHorn Steakhouse changed the way we order ribeye.
LongHorn Steakhouse impressed us with its Outlaw Ribeye.
Terri Peters
Our dinner at LongHorn felt like a great value because we enjoyed our generously-portioned meals so much — but a highlight of our dinner was a valuable tip.
LongHorn serves a $30 ribeye, and when my husband ordered his medium rare, the server took a moment to educate us about that particular cut of meat.
Because of the fat in a ribeye, he explained, the meat becomes more buttery and tender when it's cooked to a medium temperature.
My husband switched his order, and the resulting ribeye was delicious. Although we still order cuts like filet cooked medium rare, his tip stuck with us and we now cook and order our ribeyes medium.
I think Texas Roadhouse would be best for loud groups or families with young kids.
Texas Roadhouse seems like a good spot for families.
Terri Peters
Of the steakhouse chains I've been to, Texas Roadhouse had my least-favorite overall atmosphere. When we visited, it felt loud, crowded, and chaotic.
Several times during our meal, our conversation was interrupted by servers loudly clapping and singing to people who were there for a birthday dinner. We were also surrounded by many families with young children, who could understandably get a bit noisy.
Texas Roadhouse doesn't have a high-end atmosphere like Ruth's Chris or The Capital Grille, but I'd go a step further and say it's in a class below Outback and LongHorn.
Although the chain had a nicely varied menu, our group found the food to be just OK.
Overall, I think Texas Roadhouse is better suited for families with kids and groups who don't mind a noisier dining experience.
The Capital Grille is the steakhouse I'd visit every weekend if I could.
We had a great experience at The Capital Grille.
Terri Peters
Of all the steakhouse chains I've visited, The Capital Grille was my favorite with its delicious food, extremely attentive staff, and relaxing-but-elegant ambiance.
From the moment we walked into the restaurant, my family felt relaxed and taken care of.
Through several courses — which included some of the best calamari I've ever eaten and a few perfect wine pairings — we kept chatting about what a wonderful experience we were having.
The service and atmosphere alone made this steakhouse my favorite, and the food only sealed the deal.
We tried everything from surf and turf to filet au poivre and loved every bite. My son, who always orders burgers at steakhouses, said The Capital Grille served the best he's had.
Our meal cost over $500 after tax and tip, so going here wouldn't fit into our weekly dining out budget. Still, I'd request dinner at The Capital Grille for a special occasion or return for date night with just my husband to save a few hundred dollars.
