Texas Roadhouse Opening New Texas Locations in 2026: Full List of Cities

Texas Roadhouse is adding more restaurants in Texas in 2026, and the latest openings show how the steakhouse chain is widening its reach beyond only big-city markets. The company is bringing new restaurants to Cypress and West Dallas, while its sister brand Bubba’s 33 is expanding in Laredo and Terrell.

The rollout comes as Texas Roadhouse continues to post stronger sales even while restaurant operators face higher food, labor and construction costs. In its latest quarterly update, the company said it had 22 restaurants under construction across its brands, including Texas Roadhouse, Bubba’s 33 and Jaggers.

For Texas customers, the near-term expansion centers on four cities and communities:

• Laredo, Texas: Bubba’s 33 opened on May 11, 2026.
• Cypress, Texas: Texas Roadhouse is scheduled to open on June 1, 2026.
• Terrell, Texas: Bubba’s 33 is scheduled to open on June 1, 2026.
• West Dallas, Texas: Texas Roadhouse is scheduled to open on June 1, 2026.

The company’s expansion is notable because it is happening during a period when inflation is still shaping restaurant pricing. Texas Roadhouse raised menu prices in April 2026, but its sales momentum suggests customers are still willing to spend at the chain for steakhouse meals, large portions and dine-in service.

According to Texas Roadhouse’s official first-quarter 2026 earnings report, total revenue rose 12.8% to $1.63 billion for the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026. Company restaurant comparable sales increased 7.1%, while average weekly sales reached $174,151, including $25,374 from to-go sales.

The same report also showed that Texas Roadhouse’s restaurant margin dollars increased 10.5% from the prior year, reaching $264.4 million. Those figures help explain why the company is still investing in new units while many restaurant brands remain cautious about expansion.

Why These Texas Openings Matter

The new Texas restaurants are not all the same kind of opening. Cypress and West Dallas are traditional Texas Roadhouse locations, while Laredo and Terrell are Bubba’s 33 restaurants. That distinction matters because Texas Roadhouse Inc. is using more than one concept to grow in Texas.

Texas Roadhouse remains the company’s core steakhouse brand, known for hand-cut steaks, ribs, fresh-baked bread and made-from-scratch sides. Bubba’s 33, meanwhile, is a more casual sports-bar concept built around burgers, pizza, wings, beer and televised games.

This gives the company two ways to reach diners. A Texas Roadhouse restaurant targets families and steakhouse customers, while Bubba’s 33 can compete in the bar-and-grill category. In a state as large and varied as Texas, that mix gives the company more flexibility when choosing locations.

Cypress is one of the clearest examples of why Texas is attractive for the chain. The new restaurant is located at 22020 West Road near Grand Parkway, serving a fast-growing area northwest of Houston. Local reports have said the restaurant is expected to create more than 250 jobs, giving the opening an economic impact beyond customer traffic.

West Dallas gives Texas Roadhouse another entry point in a dense and competitive metro market. Dallas-Fort Worth continues to draw population growth, new housing and commercial development, making it a natural target for casual dining chains that rely on steady dinner and weekend traffic.

Laredo and Terrell show a different side of the expansion. Instead of focusing only on the largest metro areas, the company is also moving into communities where new restaurant development can quickly stand out. Bubba’s 33 in Laredo has already opened, while the Terrell location is expected to begin serving customers on June 1.

The timing also fits with management’s broader 2026 plan. During the company’s earnings update, executives said Texas Roadhouse expects about 35 company-owned openings this year. That includes new Texas Roadhouse restaurants, Bubba’s 33 units and Jaggers, the company’s fast-casual burger and chicken concept.

Texas Roadhouse has also been updating operations inside its restaurants. The company has been investing in digital waitlist tools, table-side payment technology, handheld ordering devices for servers and kitchen display systems. These changes are designed to improve speed, reduce order errors and help restaurants manage busy dining rooms.

Those upgrades are important because Texas Roadhouse restaurants often run high-volume operations. Strong average weekly sales can be positive for revenue, but they also require efficient service, staffing and kitchen execution. Technology can help the company protect the customer experience as more restaurants open.

For customers, restaurant hours can vary by location, though Texas Roadhouse restaurants typically open around 11 a.m. The company recommends checking the restaurant locator for exact hours before visiting a specific location.

The expansion also comes shortly after Swikblog covered another major Texas Roadhouse development involving its nationwide holiday schedule. You can read that report here: Texas Roadhouse to close all 736 locations for 24 hours.

Texas Roadhouse’s latest Texas openings point to a chain that is still confident about growth despite higher costs. The company is raising prices, building new restaurants and leaning on both its steakhouse and sports-bar brands to reach different customers.

For Texas diners, the immediate result is simple: new Texas Roadhouse and Bubba’s 33 locations are arriving in Cypress, West Dallas, Terrell and Laredo, with June 1 becoming the key opening date for three of the four locations.
