| - It's a Wednesday night and I didn't feel like cooking. What's a hungry guy suppose to do? You guessed it... Go out! I check around to see who's available for some good cheap eats. A friend of mine gets back to me saying she received a free birthday burger email from Red Robin's. Why not I say. I don't mind being the buy one (thats me) get one free (thats her) person in this deal.
We get there around 7:30. The place is huge. Busy? It was normal I guess for a Wednesday night. Workers? Tons.
"Table for two please" I tell the young male host. "Just a moment" he replies. He then goes around the half empty restaurant talking to the different servers. He comes back and says "Please have a seat in the waiting area. I will seat you when the next table is available."
I might of been a little tipsy from drinking before hand... But seriously... "When the next table is available?" I might not have the powers like Haley Joel Osment, from Sixth Sense, to see people in the empty tables, but what I can see is about 30 tables which I could be sitting at. So we do what we can do... Wait.
About 5 minutes later, we ask the host if we can sit in that empty table next to the nice people who seem to be enjoying their meal. "I'll have to check with the server of that area" says the host.
About 8 minutes later... The manager comes out and asks us if we have been helped... Since we're the only people waiting for a table, I assume he's talking to us. "Yes sir. We're waiting for a table. Apparently its standing room only in here tonight." I smirked. "Come with me", he says.
We walk across the restaurant and he seats us in a booth. Sweet. We go to the only table in the restaurant where the lamp over the table is out. "I dont mind the mood lighting... But can we sit someplace where I can see my friends face?" I requested. I know... I know... I'm just asking for something to "happen" to my food but i'm pretty much past that point.
The nice waitress moves us over a few tables and everything seems to be at peace in the universe now. We crack open the menu's and decided on two good looking burgers. Our order goes in... And we wait.... And wait... And wait...
The family next to us, who appeared to be waiting for a long long time, finally tires of the wait and gets up to leave. The manager quickly catches them and asks if he could do anything for them. The father explains that they have been waiting for like 30 mins for their food and their kids are hungry and they are leaving to get food. The manager offers to pick up their tab if they agree to sit and eat. The family leaves. Great... I'm stoked.
Eventually... Our food comes out. After a careful inspection, we eat. We pay. We leave.
Oh and my burger was alright. I got the A1 Peppercorn burger. The description says "Sizzling, hickory-smoked bacon, melted Pepper-Jack cheese, A.1.® peppercorn spread, crispy onion straws, onions and tomatoes on an onion bun. It's a taste explosion!"
I was upset that I couldnt give this place ZERO stars but I guess the burger was good enough for me to give them one star. I also thought it was cool that if you sign up on their website they send you a free burger coupon on your birthday. FYI, I read somewhere that the Peppercorn burger is one of the unhealthiest ones you can order there. Great. It just keeps getting better!
To see the yummy burger, check out the pics!
