Ok...so we have been going to Texas Roadhouse in Port Orange for the past couple of years because Outback no longer has good steaks. What we found was that Texas Roadhouse does NOT freeze their steaks and they are always tender, done correctly, and flavorful. When we heard that Texas Roadhouse was opening up in Palm Coast we were ecstatic!
It was worth the wait!! The steaks are GREAT!! hands down. Tender, flavorful and done just right. The service is great - even on their opening day. It definitely beats Outback hands down.
NOTE to Outback: Don't freeze your steaks and get better cuts so that they are tender. And work on your service.
NOTE to everyone else: Go to Texas Roadhouse, you won't be sorry!!

Popeyes - Palm Coast
So, we tried the new Popeyes on SR 100 east of I-95 a couple of weeks ago to check out the chicken sandwich that they offer that is suppose to be fantastic... short answer...there is NOTHING spectacular about it. Seriously, it is no better or no worse then Chic-Fil, McDonalds, or Wendy's chicken sandwich. BTW, we waited in the drive up line for about 20 minutes.
And today, we decided we'd try Popeyes again. This time we ordered in and sat down. We got two meals: 3 chicken tenders with one side and a drink, and a 2 piece with one side and a drink. Total -- just under $20.00.
Problem # 1: Compared to KFC, the chicken tenders and the pieces of chicken were small;
Problem # 2: The only sides they had were Red Beans and Rice, and Green beans. No mashed potatoes, no fries, no coleslaw;
Problem # 3: The biscuit was about the size of a silver dollar (for those that remember what a silver dollar looked like)
Problem # 4: The chicken was over cooked and not tender;
Problem # 5: The size of the sides were reduced by half. Maybe because they are low on food supplies
In general, this will NOT be a place that we will be returning to. It is over priced, the food is not that good, and the service is less than satisfactory. You would be better off spending your money else rather than at Popeyes in Palm Coast.
