TAMPA, Fla. (Legal Newsline) - A Florida man is suing Texas Roadhouse after he says a piece of broken plate in his food caused him injuries.
Ricky Triplett filed a lawsuit April 16 in Hillsborough County Circuit Court against Texas Roadhouse Holdings LLC and Texas Roadhouse Management Corp., seeking damages in excess of $50,000.
Triplett alleges that he suffered significant and permanent injuries, including a broken tooth, due to negligence on the part of the defendants. He claims that he found a piece of plate in his food while dining at a Texas Roadhouse location in Riverview on December 25, 2022.
