FRANKLIN, Va. (NewsNation) — Mike and Judy McNamara are on a mission to visit every Texas Roadhouse in America with their dog Andy in tow.
So far, the McNamaras have visited 437 Texas Roadhouse restaurants.
The two have known each other since third grade when Judy McNamara said she fell in love with him. They married in 1971, and are recently retired.
Now, the McNamaras spend a lot of their time on the road.
The two just returned from a trip where they visited 25 Texas Roadhouse restaurants.
“It’s good food,” Mike McNamara said. “It’s more like home cooking to us. And as time has gone by, it’s not just the food. It’s also the people who work at the restaurants. They are a very big family of employees.”
While the two have been to over 400 Texas Roadhouse restaurants, they have yet to try all the items on the menu.
“We rotate around because of being there so often. But there’s a few things that we have not asked to try,” Mike McNamara said.
The McNamaras don’t have a set number of how many Texas Roadhouses they want to visit in a year, but Mike McNamara said they dine at about 65 to 70 different locations each year.
“I keep thinking we will slow down because of our age, and so far, it hasn’t happened,” he said.
