I had Red Robin for the first time ever yesterday and all I can say is Wow!! We went to the one in Briar Creek. We were there shopping and went to Red Robin just because it was there and we figured "How bad could it be." I got the Bleu Ribbon Burger and was amazed. They have the best burgers I have ever tasted in my life. I have tried Cookout, Chargrill, Five Guys, Abbey Road and just about every other burger joint in town but this is it. I was very suprised!
My son worked at the Red Robin in Apex his senior year in high school...we would go in there every once in a while. They are expensive but man do they have some good ideas.
Dain's Place on 9th Street in Durham has really, really good burgers. I like them better than Five Guys. So tasty! I hear that Bull McCabe's downtown makes a really good burger as well, but I've not been myself. Many here swear by Wimpy's over near the Locopops on Hillsborough Rd in Durham. They were tasty the few times I've had them, but they never agreed with my stomachfor reasons I've never figured out (the people I ate with had no problems), so I haven't gone back.
Not a fan of Red Robin burgers at all. Fuddruckers makes a great burger. They are in Raleigh off of Capital Blvd and in Durham off of MLK Parkway. Second favorite would be Five Guys!!
I was just at Fuddruckers on Sunday. I hadn't been to one in over 20 years. I am surprised you don't hear more about them. The burgers are very reasonable, tasty and the fries are really good. When we were there (in Durham, in the same plaza as the Wynnsong/Carmike in Durham) there were only a couple of other families there. More people need to start going there so they don't go out of business.
If you are ever in Chapel Hill you have to try the burgers at Buns. They offer a huge selection of toppings and their fries are really good. I also like it that they offer a whole wheat bun option. Yeah, I know the burger is still high calorie and bad for you but every little helps!
Hadn't heard of this place before. Sounds good! Will have to give it a try. Thanks for posting!
Burger King for me. All these fancy burgers are simply to difficult to eat, they are tasty but to BIG.
