Red Robin is a chain in the category of TGI Friday or Ruby Tuesday, although it has a more limited menu. According to the website, the menu varies by location, although so far I haven't noticed this (then again, I have only been in OR and WA), but all specialize in "gourmet burgers" and "bottomless steak fries".
This time I went for the Santa Fe burger, which combines a juicy burger, fire-roasted Poblano pepper, guacamole, sautéed onions, crisp tortilla strips, lettuce, all on an onion bun with Ancho mayo. It was very tasty, even if it hardly tasted like a classic burger (no dripping juices). My earlier experiences with the 5 Alarm Burger (jalapeños, fresh tangy salsa, Chipotle mayo) and the Blackened Bayou Burger (roasted red peppers, "angry onions," Creole mustard sauce and cabbage-carrot mix on a jalapeño-cornmeal Kaiser roll) had been similarly satisfactory. This time the steak fries were very fresh and tasty, so I got me a second serving. :-)
VERDICT: 80/100
Red Robin is a good place to go if you want a different, non-greasy burger. Virtually all burgers are just under $10 and include bottomless fries. A burger-alternative for real burgers.
