Texas Roadhouse Inc.
Texas Roadhouse Inc.’s main restaurant concept is the Texas Roadhouse dinner-only casual-dining chain, and the company has expanded into other segments with its sports-bar-themed Bubba’s 33 and the fast-casual Jaggers.
The Louisville, Ky.-based company was started in February 1993 when Kent Taylor founded the first Texas Roadhouse in Clarksville, Ind.
The menu features hand-cut steaks, bone-in ribs, side dishes and fresh-baked bread.
In March 2021, founder Taylor died by suicide after battling post-COVID-19-related symptoms that included severe tinnitus. As part of the company’s succession plan, Jerry Morgan was promoted to CEO from his role as president of the company.
