Texas Roadhouse Menu Nutrition: Calories, Protein & Full Meals

Texas Roadhouse Menu Nutrition: compare reference calories, protein, fat, carbs and sodium for popular items, then build the complete meal by adding sides, toppings, bread and drinks in the current official-linked Nutrition & Allergens resource.

Reviewed August 11, 2026•Source-checked guide
Quick answer: A plain 6 oz sirloin delivers about 46 g of protein for roughly 250 calories, while a 12 oz ribeye lands near 960 calories with about 72 g of fat. The full plate is what counts: add both sides, sauces, rolls, drinks and dessert to the entrée record, then verify the exact item in the official Nutrition & Allergens resource.

Texas Roadhouse nutrition reference table

Important: These are reference values cross-checked across established nutrition databases and are not presented as a live official nutrition feed. Recipes, portions and source records can change. For a current decision, open the Nutrition & Allergens resource linked by Texas Roadhouse and match the exact item and portion.
Reference itemCaloriesProteinFatCarbsSodium
Hand-Cut Sirloin, 6 oz~250~46 g~6 g~3 g~560 mg
Dallas Filet, 6 oz~270~45 g~10 g~6 g~720 mg
New York Strip, 12 oz~640~85 g~33 g~3 g~980 mg
Ft. Worth Ribeye, 12 oz~960~78 g~72 g~6 g~1,180 mg
Chicken Critters®~480~45 g~21 g~26 g~1,190 mg

The comparison is most useful for seeing how portion and cut change the nutrition profile: a 6 oz sirloin and a 12 oz ribeye are different records, even before sides are added. Do not copy a number from one steak size to another.

Protein per calorie: reading the table like a label

The five reference rows above reward a second look. The 6 oz sirloin pairs about 46 g of protein with roughly 250 calories, the best protein-per-calorie ratio in the table. The Dallas Filet is close behind at about 45 g of protein for 270 calories. Chicken Critters match that protein at roughly 45 g, but the breading pushes the record to about 480 calories and adds around 26 g of carbs that the grilled items do not carry.

Fat is where the big steaks separate themselves. The 12 oz strip holds about 33 g of fat, while the same weight of ribeye reaches roughly 72 g, which explains most of its 960-calorie total. Sodium climbs with size and seasoning too, from about 560 mg on the small sirloin to roughly 1,190 mg on the Critters. None of these rows is a verdict on what to order. They are a reminder that cut and cooking method move the numbers more than the menu category does. For the calorie-only view of the same items, see the calories guide.

Three plate builds for three goals

GoalA workable buildWhy it works
Higher protein, moderate total6 oz sirloin or a grilled chicken dinner, green beans, house salad with dressing on the sideLean protein stays high while the sides keep fat and sodium in check.
Big appetite, full steakhouse plate12 oz strip, baked potato, seasoned corn, rolls counted honestlyA larger cut plus classic sides, with the bread included in the estimate instead of ignored.
Lighter night outGrilled salmon or a grilled chicken salad, steamed vegetables, unsweet teaGrilled preparation and vegetable sides keep the record lower without leaving the table hungry.

Treat each build as a starting point, then match every component to its exact record in the current nutrition resource. Portions and recipes change, and a build that worked last year can drift. The guides hub links the matching price, allergen and takeout guides when you are ready to order.

How to compare two meals correctly

Use the same method for both meals: exact entrée, exact size, the actual two sides, all sauces or toppings, bread, beverage and dessert. A grilled entrée can look much lighter than a fried entrée when viewed alone, but a fair comparison still requires the same definition of what is included.

If allergens or gluten are part of the decision, nutrition numbers are not a safety check. Use the allergen guide and gluten-friendly guide, then tell restaurant staff about the allergy and ask about current ingredients and cross-contact procedures.
