I have never been to Texas Roadhouse even though we now have one in AR. I received this info today by email. It is also on Clan Thompson's site.
A member of my local support group told me that a friend of hers who is a restaurant owner is very concerned about the liability of having a GF menu.

Texas Roadhouse restaurant has withdrawn its gluten free menu. They are now issuing the following statement instead: "At Texas Roadhouse, our mission is Legendary Food, Legendary Service. Each and every day, we strive to provide our guests with homemade food and hand-cut steaks served piping hot by a friendly, energetic staff. We realize that some individuals suffer from allergic reactions or have an intolerance to various foods or ingredients, such as peanuts, MSG or gluten. While we understand these situations, we have conducted an extensive review of our food preparation procedures and concluded that because of certain risks, such as the multiple-use of utensils or human error, we can't provide a 100% guarantee that our food will not contain some allergens. While we realize this will be an inconvenience to some, we strive to keep guests apprised of the company's position so that they can make informed decisions for their family."
