| - Let me start out by saying there were some very good things, and some not-so-good things.
We received a coupon in the mail that came with an announcement of some new items on their menu. My husband and I frequent RT's, but we haven't been in a while, due to our schedules. We decided to go there tonight and see what was new.
First off, our waiter, Thomas, was delightful. He was friendly and attentive. He deserves 5 stars. We both went for the salad bar to start off with. I love their salad bar, but when I went to get a plate, the first 2 I picked up were still dirty. I reached all the way to the back to get one that was clean. I did enjoy the salad, all the ingredients were fresh and delicious. And, their little biscuits are wonderful. I only wish they were a bit bigger.
For our dinners, my husband got the Cajun Seafood Plate with mashed cauliflower (way too garlicky) and grilled zucchini. He enjoyed the meal, but should've paid more attention when Thomas mentioned the garlic in the cauliflower. I had one of their new items, the meatloaf with white cheddar mashed potatoes and grilled zucchini (I asked for it to be extra grilled, and it was...yummy!). When imagining meatloaf, I get a picture in my mind of something very specific. This wasn't it. It was 3 small pieces of "meatloaf". It wasn't cut off a loaf and served; it was sliced, then had a dry rub on it and then cooked on each side (at least, that's what it seemed like). I'm not a fan of their dry rub on the ribs, and this tasted very similar to that...all over. It also had their tangy BBQ sauce underneath and on top of the pieces. I guess I assumed the sauce would only be baked into the top crust, but it wasn't. I ended up wiping the sauce off the pieces and trying to maintain the flavor of meatloaf. I enjoy meatloaf, I enjoy the flavor of it, this didn't have any of that. Luckily, the mashed potatoes went perfect with it, and I ended up eating both at the same time. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't horrible, it just wasn't what I was expecting. And, since I was hungry, I ended up eating it all. The shining star on my plate were the grilled zucchini...I could eat those all day.
We'll definitely be back again, and hopefully have Thomas as our waiter. But, I won't be getting the meatloaf anytime soon. I normally get their grilled salmon, which is always delicious. But, decided to try something different this time...oh well.
