Has anyone ever been to this burger place? I have been seeing a bunch of their commercials lately and to be honest, it looks REALLY good!

I'm hoping I can get a recommendation from someone, then hopefully I can talk the girlfriend into going (god damn picky eater!).

Man it's the right place to go! There's one a few miles away in Eagen from me, and it has the deals you'll see pretty much anywhere, but it has some really great sandwiches there! I loved it, and yea I'd probably recommend it as well.

It's ok. Some of the things are a bit overpriced, but you do get as many fry refills as you want.

Red Robin makes "gourmet" burgers and sandwichs with endless steak fries. They are a bit pricey (about 8-9 bucks for a burger and fries) but they are good. When you add a drink or shake be prepared to spend about 15 bucks per person. You can visit their web site at www.redrobin.com
If you are going to make a scene, be seen.

They do not have good "sandwiches". They have good "burgers". Because when I say "sandwiches" I am including their grilled cheese entree meal. I ordered a grilled cheese one time, and it was so soaked in grease and butter that when I picked it up, it dripped and squirted all over my plate. I then decided to ignore it and take a bite. Then, I ran into the bathroom and vomited. There's my red robin story. So yeah, I recommend red robin burgers, and not red robin.

I had a burger at Red Robins and thought it was terrible...might just be me though.

In n Out and Freddies is where it's at!

Red Robin did have really good shakes though.

The chicken fingers are the best. I always get the kids menu chicken cluckers and strawberry lemonade. Its amazing. Never tried anything else though.

Gotta be a local problem - Ive never had a burger or sandwich soaked in grease. Infact, most of them were soaked in things like, cheese, ketchup or bbq sauce that I asled for. Ive never seen or gotten this excessive grease thing.

Ive got one near me, LOVE it. Possibly my fave restuarant.


Oh and as said, the Strawberry Lemonade is heaven.
