SponsorCentral: Are you hungry tonight?

We love our SouthsideCentral sponsors. Texas Steakhouse is the place to go tonight (and any night) , and it won’t break your budget.

Two of these dinners and an appetizer. All for $22. Seriously.

There’s other choices on the 2 for $22 menu, too… but this is my favorite. Make your way to 2925 Riverside Drive. Tell your server that you saw this on SouthsideCentral and you’ll get a voucher good for a free appetizer on your next visit!
