DINING OUT: A really crowded evening at the Texas Roadhouse

Should you plan to dine at the Texas Roadhouse in Concordville, I strongly suggest you go early. We celebrated a family dinner there on Saturday night and assembled at 5 p.m., because that's the "birthday boy's" preferred dinner time. Although the parking lot was full (we parked all the way up at the Chick-Fil-A), we were seated right away.
But by the time we left at 6:45 p.m., the lobby was packed to the point of claustrophobia with people waiting to eat. A couple we happened to run into told us the wait time was an hour -- which they considered a good deal, because the Outback steakhouse had quoted them a 90-minute wait time.
I should add that our meals were tasty and the service (our waitress was named Carolyn) was more than commendable. Because we were a party of nine, we were seated at two adjacent tables separated by an aisle. Naturally, we often changed places to chat with different family members. Nonetheless, the cheerful Carolyn kept our orders straight and our drinks refilled. Well done.
