Red Robin closing about 70 locations

I don't know who goes there anyway, we try every few years and it's aways terrible. Over-priced burgers and awful sides.

I always that the bottomless fries was a cool idea, until I figured out they give you about a dozen fries to start out with and then good luck getting your server back. By the time you get the second basket everyone is done eating.

Been there maybe 3-4 times in my life (because my dad/grandma no pics friggin LOVE shitty chain restaurants) and to say it's incredibly forgettable would be an understatement.

Seems like the Quad Cities one has good traffic. That is probably just spill over from people that didn't show up 2 hours early for Texas Roadhouse and don't want to wait in a mile long line for Chicken Fillet or however it is spelled. I have only been there once, and that was enough.

Fuddruckers was better.

They had some out in the Chicago area but it looks like they didn't survive. Detroit or Knoxville TN look like the next best options to hit up a Fuddruckers.

we called it fudgepacker's

was there once. We ordered an appetizer of onion rings. Lol, came out with them single stacked on a stick, about 8 rings for $8.

Nothing awful, nothing great. Prefer local places.

Been to the one in Dubuque and Eau Clare Wi
Never had a bad meal there.
Hostess was always coming by asking if she could get anything.
She made a nice tip each time.

I used to love Fuddrucker’s. But most of the ones I used to visit closed down and then a few years ago I went to one in Detroit and it was awful. The burger was dry and overcooked. The dining area was neglected and dirty. Just a horrible experience. I won’t bother to look for locations anymore.

Kids loved it when they could have kid's meal. Bottomless Mac and cheese and they would usually polish off 3 or 4 bowls.

It is a real shame I will have to get my $15 hamburgers somewhere else.

Damn. I really miss Fudruckers. They used to have 2 in Omaha.

There was a Davenport location for I want to say 10 years or so.

I went a few times. It was pretty good. Better than Red Robin anyway.

Yeah, like everything. Used to be good and then went cheap on quality while prices went up. The burgers are fine, but not for $15-16. And you are absolutely correct on the fries.

Chili’s has it figured out right now and they are packed. The food is much better than RR.

I think I've only been 1 or 2 times. The bottomless fries is a great gimmick until you realize they are terrible fries.
