Texas Roadhouse Menu in Hawaii: a mainland steakhouse menu, island setting
Texas Roadhouse in Hawaii means one thing for most diners: the Kapolei restaurant on Oahu’s leeward side, serving Ewa Beach, Makakilo, Waipahu and the growing West Oahu communities. It is a mainland chain through and through: line-dancing servers, buckets of peanuts, country music, and a menu that does not shrink just because it crossed the Pacific. For Hawaii families used to plate-lunch portions, the fit is natural. This is a lot of food for the money.
Because there is a single island location, planning matters more here than in most states. Waits on Friday and Saturday nights are famous, the parking lot fills early, and kamaaina know to use call-ahead seating or arrive before the dinner rush. This page covers what is on the menu, what it typically costs, and how to make the visit smooth.
Steaks and Prime Rib, Island Pricing in Mind
The steak list matches the national menu. The Hand-Cut Sirloin starts the lineup, typically $13 to $23 on the mainland and often a bit higher in Hawaii. The New York Strip lands around $21 to $29, the Ft. Worth Ribeye around $22 to $31, and the Dallas Filet around $23 to $32. The 20 oz. Bone-In Ribeye and the 23 oz. Porterhouse T-Bone sit at the top near $29 to $40. Prime rib is the weekend event: slow-roasted for hours, cut to order, and gone when it is gone, generally $23 to $34.
Every steak dinner includes two sides. Locals tend to load up the baked potato or swap in the seasoned rice, and the house and Caesar salads are made fresh through the night. If you are comparing cuts before you commit, the national menu with prices guide lays out every cut side by side.
Seafood and Chicken for the Rest of the Table
Not everyone flies to a steakhouse for steak. The grilled salmon, usually in the high teens to low twenties, is the island-friendly pick, served with lemon butter and two sides. Fried catfish brings a cornmeal crust and a Creole kick. On the chicken side, Chicken Critters (about $14 to $20) are the crowd favorite, the herb-crusted chicken is the grilled option, and the Country Fried Chicken under cream gravy (about $15 to $22) is pure comfort.
Starters travel well across the menu too. The Cactus Blossom runs about $7 to $12 and feeds the whole table while you decide. Rattlesnake Bites bring jalapeño heat, and the Tater Skins are exactly as loaded as you hope.
Early Dine and Island Timing
Hawaii runs on its own dinner clock. Plenty of West Oahu families eat at 5 p.m., which lines up perfectly with Early Dine: selected dinners at a reduced price during the early weekday window, typically before 6 p.m., with items set by the restaurant. It is the easiest way to beat both the price and the wait at the same time.
To-go ordering through the official app is the other local move. Order from the beach, time the drive to Kapolei, and grab curbside pickup on the way home. Rolls travel in the bag; ask for extra cinnamon butter and nobody will judge you.
Finding the Hawaii Location
Our state directory covers the whole country, and the official locator will confirm the Kapolei restaurant’s hours and live menu, which is the source that matters. Flying in from the mainland and already craving a steak dinner near the airport layover? The California menu page covers the most common connection state.

Burgers, Salads and Feeding the Whole Ohana
A Kapolei dinner usually involves more than two people, and the menu is built for the whole ohana. The burger section runs on half-pound chuck patties in the low-to-mid teens: a classic cheeseburger, a bacon Smokehouse build, and a mushroom Swiss, each with steak fries. For big tables, the play is variety: one ribeye, one salmon, a couple of chicken plates, burgers for the teenagers, and a Cactus Blossom in the middle that disappears in four minutes.
Entree salads keep the lighter lane honest: grilled chicken over chopped greens with egg, cheese, tomato and bacon, Caesar salads with chicken or salmon, and the house chili by the cup or bowl. Kids meals, roughly $6 to $14, include tenders, mini burgers and a junior steak, which matters when grandma, two cousins and a toddler all need to eat at the same table at the same time. It is the family math, as much as the steak, that built the Kapolei parking lot crowd.
Hawaii Questions, Answered
Where is Texas Roadhouse in Hawaii?
The Hawaii restaurant is in Kapolei on Oahu, serving the island’s leeward side. Neighbor islands do not have a location yet, so inter-island diners usually pair a visit with an Oahu trip.
Are Hawaii prices higher than the mainland?
Often, yes, by a few dollars on many items, which is normal for Hawaii restaurants. This page lists mainland-typical ranges as a planning guide; the Kapolei menu in the official app shows the exact island prices.
What do locals order most?
The sirloin and ribeye lead, the prime rib sells out on weekends, and the rolls with cinnamon butter have a genuine following. The salmon is the most-ordered non-steak entree.
How long is the weekend wait?
Peak Friday and Saturday waits can run long, sometimes over an hour. Call-ahead seating through the app or by phone is the standard local workaround.
Does the Hawaii location offer Early Dine?
Early Dine selections are offered on weekdays during the early window at participating restaurants. Check the Kapolei listing or ask when you call ahead, since the featured items rotate.
A First Visit, Planned Out
If this is your first Kapolei visit, keep it simple. Let the rolls and a Cactus Blossom handle the table while you decide, then order the plate the kitchen is famous for: a hand-cut steak, medium rare if it is a ribeye, with a loaded baked potato and the house salad. Someone at the table should get the salmon so you can taste both worlds, and someone else should claim the Chicken Critters. Use call-ahead seating, arrive a few minutes early for parking, and expect to take a box home. First visits here tend to become standing Friday plans, and the staff will start recognizing your order by the third one.
