Texas Roadhouse Stampedes On EPS Beat as Comp Sales Surge 9.3% 
Casual dining restaurant operator Texas Roadhouse Inc. (NASDAQ: TXRH) is an anomaly among dine-in restaurants. It continues to post impressive results, as evidenced by its solid Q2 2024 earnings report. The steakhouse-style restaurant chain continues to impress with its consistent growth metrics. Particularly outstanding is its 9.3% YoY same-store sales (SSS) growth in its latest quarter. This metric alone outshines some of the most well-known restaurant chains in the country. Texas Roadhouse operates in the consumer discretionary sector and competes with restaurant operators Darden Restaurants Inc. (NYSE: DRI), Brinker’s International Inc. (NYSE: EAT), and Bloomin’ Brands Inc. (NASDAQ: BLMN). Imagine having a "trading calendar" with what could be the EXACT dates to buy and sell some of your favorite stocks…

The crazy thing is that this ability exists RIGHT NOW. You can see what I mean when you click right here Texas Roadhouse Is Truly an Anomaly Texas Roadhouse prides itself on its fresh, made-from-scratch sides and sauces, including bacon bits, croutons, and dressings. Its iconic buns are baked fresh every five minutes and served with honey cinnamon butter. Its hand-cut steaks are always fresh and never frozen, cut by an in-house butcher. It has all the makings of an expensive premium steakhouse without the expensive décor and furnishings. As customers walk into the restaurant, they can see the meat on display and actually pick which steaks they want for their meal. It's a testament to how well management operates this chain, separating itself from the pack even among steakhouses. Texas Roadhouse is a rare anomaly of premium food served at a value. It's like Michael Porter's Theory of Competitive Advantage morphed into one strategy where a premium product is sold under a low-cost distribution strategy. Same-Store Sales Growth Is the Barometer For Restaurant Operators The metrics speak for themselves. Same-store sales, also referred to as comparable sales, are data that gauge how well a restaurant is growing. Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (NYSE: CMG) is the king of the mountain among fast casual dining restaurants, with a whopping 11.3% SSS growth in its latest quarter. Sweetgreen Inc. (NYSE: SG) impressed analysts with its 5% SSS growth in its Q1 2024 report. CAVA Group Inc. (NYSE: CAVA) was only able to squeeze out 2.3% SSS growth in its recent quarter. Among casual dine-in restaurants, Texas Roadhouse is the king of the mountain, with 9.3% SSS growth in Q2 2024. This is compared to the world's largest restaurant operator, Darden Restaurants, which posted 4% SSS growth in its recent quarter. Olive Garden posted SSS growth down 1.5%. Longhorn Steakhouse posted only 4% SSS growth, while Bloomin Brands-owned Outback Steakhouse saw SSS fall 1.2% in Q1 2024. Even premium fine dining establishment Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar saw SSS fall 2%.
