Even the name reminds me of the jingle on the commercial - great marketing, huh? Father's Day, June 16th, we a long day for us. We had picked up the children that day and were making our way down to Branson. Stopping for an early dinner/ late lunch (linner/dunch) in Kansas City seemed like the best idea. Wanting some place new and not too far off the highway, we elected Red Robin in Liberty just north of Kansas City.
Service was partial, the poor girl looked like she was miserable but she wasn't a horrible server. Just looked like she needed more training. Food was as good as could be expected from a multiunit casual dining restaurant. Nothing spectacular at all from the kitchen and on the service, no manager was ever seen visiting tables. Oh well.
I ordered the chicken in a spinach wrap - too much wrap for the amount of filling. Great fried though and they are bottomless. They even brought out a basket as an appetizer before our meal which I thought was unique. The Hubby ordered a burger and said it was decent. Not outstanding like Fuddruckers, but not gross like other places I won't mention. Sarah tried to go the slightly healthy route and ordered a fried chicken finger salad with honey mustard dressing. Looked yummy and seemed well-proportioned until I realized it was a shallow bowl. Jason order the ribs and macaroni and cheese. While he ate all the ribs, he hardly touched the macaroni and cheese. Once I tasted it I figured out why - it was made from real noodles and cheese, not the kind that comes from the blue and yellow box he's used to. Oh well, we took it with us and the Hubby ate it for a late night snack at the hotel.
Overall, not excited to go back since there are so many more choices to chose from, but I'm glad we gave it a good college try!
