I have eaten at Red Robin exactly twice and neither were my choice. The first time was probably in the first year they opened and the burger was okay except it tasted like it had been doused in salt. Second time was about two years ago and same thing. No reason to try them a third time.

Red Robin is in death throes from what I've read.

Huh. I'm wearing my shocked face...

Funny too..always meant to stop in and try the place but never seemed to get around to it. Guess I never will.

This area does a remarkable job of making nearly every chain restaurant mediocre at best.....wonder why that is?

Because it's a chain, and they are exactly the same, everywhere you go.

I go everywhere though...and find that many of the same joints are far better other places.

Because people don't know how to eat. That great Vietnamese place in Leonardtown lasted about a year, but Red Robin pulls a crowd almost every night. Go figure.

I'm with her! If it ain't tougher and more done than my shoes, it's too rare.

I write it off to being too lazy to venture far off Rt 235.

It didn’t last long.

There was a BBQ place in the new strip just down from the Burchmart.

Urban BBQ. Went there once and it was enough.

So, it was ....


sub- urban?

Yep, its was where the Bottom of the Hill Tavern is now, before that it was the Viet Namese place, before that it was an Arizona Pizza, I think, and before that it was a Perkins.

Between being Arizona and Vietnamese there was another one in there for a while.. Rustic something or other?...

I thought so too, but couldn't remember what it was.

...or to even venture off of 249.....or even past Valley Lee on 249...

Hell, the last time I went "off road" down that way, I had guns drawn on me. Was told in no uncertain terms that "my kind" wasn't allowed down there.
