Building Comfort and Capacity for a National Dining Brand

Texas Roadhouse sought to expand and enhance its St. Charles location with a new dining room and vestibule addition, all while keeping the restaurant open and operational. As with any open-store remodel, the project required strategic planning, clear communication, and minimal disruption to staff and guests.

Adding to the challenge, the existing construction drawings presented inconsistencies that required proactive problem-solving and coordination across multiple teams. Despite these complexities, the schedule was firm: the new addition needed to be completed and ready to welcome guests by Mother’s Day 2025, one of the busiest dining weekends of the year.

The Oakline Construction Solution

Oakline Construction Group was awarded the project through a competitive bid and immediately went to work ensuring precision, safety, and on-time execution.

  • Construction Services: Provided complete construction and management services for a 600 SF dining room and vestibule addition, blending seamlessly with the existing restaurant layout.
  • Coordination & Collaboration: Worked closely with the architect, GreenbergFarrow, to resolve drawing discrepancies and maintain progress without delay.
  • Open-Store Execution: Phased construction to minimize impact on daily restaurant operations, maintaining a safe and accessible environment for staff and guests.
  • Quality & Schedule Control: Leveraged Oakline’s proven processes and hands-on project management to keep the project on schedule and within scope.

Oakline Construction Group successfully completed the dining room and vestibule addition on schedule, allowing Texas Roadhouse to open the new space in time for Mother’s Day 2025.
