(23,459 posts)We went to Texas Roadhouse. This is the 3rd time I've eaten there. I got chicken critters, (chicken tenders), a side salad, steak fries, and a roll. I got 7 pieces of chicken. I brought home 5 pieces of chicken and half the fries. My friend couldn't eat all of her dinner, either. She brought one of her friends along, who bought her own dinner and she ate all of hers.
The food was good. At this time of day, it wasn't crowded and we didn't have to wait.
