$22.99The New York Strip is the steak for people who want bold, beefy flavor with a satisfying chew. It’s a well-marbled, hand-cut strip grilled to your exact doneness and served with two made-from-scratch sides.
What It Is
A classic strip steak, hand-cut fresh in-house, seasoned and flame-grilled. It sits between the lean filet and the rich ribeye in both flavor and texture.
Taste and Texture
Firmer than a ribeye but more marbled than a sirloin, with a deep, beef-forward flavor and a good chew. Medium-rare to medium keeps it juicy.
Ingredients
Hand-cut strip steak and the house steak seasoning, grilled. Toppings are optional.
Available Sizes
Commonly offered in a 12oz size; some locations offer other weights. Availability can vary.
Nutrition Information
Approximately 520 calories for the 12oz before sides, high in protein. Texas Roadhouse doesn’t publish exact macros, so treat figures as estimates and check the official nutrition portal.
Allergen Information
The steak is simple; added sauces or toppings may introduce allergens and cross-contact is possible on a shared grill.
Popular Pairings
A baked potato or steak fries plus a salad balance the richness. A bold red wine pairs well.
Price Information

Ordering Tips
Order medium-rare to medium for the best texture; add sauteed mushrooms or onions for a little richness.

The Most Underrated Number on the Steak Menu
A 12oz New York Strip is 520 calories. Grilled salmon is 580. A twelve ounce cut of beef is lighter than the fish, and almost nobody expects that.
| Cut | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Hand-Cut Sirloin 6oz | $16.99 | 420 |
| Dallas Filet 6oz | $26.99 | 450 |
| New York Strip 12oz | $22.99 | 520 |
| Grilled Salmon | $21.99 | 580 |
| Prime Rib 12oz | $25.99 | 650 |
| Ft. Worth Ribeye 12oz | $24.99 | 680 |
| Bone-In Ribeye 16oz | $29.99 | 820 |
Same weight, 160 calories apart. The 12oz strip is 520 and the 12oz ribeye is 680. Both are twelve ounces of beef. The difference is marbling: ribeye carries more intramuscular fat, which is exactly what makes it richer and what makes the number higher. Pick on which of those you want.
What a Strip Actually Tastes Like
Firmer than a ribeye, more chew, more beef-forward flavour. Less melting richness, more of the taste of the meat itself.
If you have ordered ribeye every time and found it a bit heavy by the last few bites, the strip is the cut to try. If you love that richness, stay with the ribeye — the strip will feel lean by comparison.
Price Position
At $22.99 the strip sits below the ribeye, the prime rib and the filet, while giving you the largest lean cut on the menu. On calories per dollar and on ounces per dollar it is arguably the best-positioned steak here after the 6oz sirloin.

- Medium rare or medium. A strip is leaner than a ribeye, so it dries out sooner if cooked past medium.
- Butter finish on request. Ask them to skip it if you want the 520 figure to hold.
- Two sides included. Green beans at 160 keeps the plate near 680 total.
- Let it rest a minute before cutting. Applies to any steak, matters more on lean cuts.
