Texas Roadhouse Allergen Menu & Gluten Free Guide
This guide provides detailed information related to allergens and gluten in foods offered at Texas Roadhouse restaurant. For ease of reference, we break out the menu in the same manner as the popular steakhouse.
In addition, you will find a list of entrees, appetizers, side dishes, and sauces that are gluten-friendly.
What are Food Allergens?
Federal regulations have identified nine major food allergens: eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soybeans, tree nuts, and wheat.
Federal regulations exempt highly refined oil, even if derived from one of the major food allergen groups. Therefore, highly refined soybean oil is not considered a common allergen.
In addition, there is a risk of cross-contamination. Foods may be prepared or cooked using shared equipment. For example, fried foods are often cooked in common oil. As such, foods made without a declared food allergen may come into contact with or contain allergens.
This guide is for informational purposes only. Restaurants may change recipes or suppliers without notice. Anyone with food allergies or specific dietary needs should check the Texas Roadhouse website or contact the manager at local Texas Roadhouse locations for the most up-to-date and complete allergen information. Neither Nutrition & Ingredients nor its staff assume responsibility for individuals with food sensitivities or allergies. Always consult your physician for health, dietary, and allergen concerns.
