When did Tampa FINALLY get a Red Robin? Why wasn't this much bigger news??? This is amazing news and just lifted my otherwise mediocre week. I'll have to stop by there tonight.

An approximation of their advertised burger, fries and a coke...

Would you like some food with that salt?

http://www.saltinstitute.org/Issues-...t-requirements

"The National Academy of Sciences recommends that Americans consume a minimum of 500 mg/day of sodium to maintain good health...The very large percentage of the population consumes 1,150- 5,750 mg/day which is termed the "hygienic safety range" of sodium intake by renowned Swedish hypertension expert..."

If you order properly, the place looks pretty good actually. I'd try a veggie burger there.

"With Bottomless Steakfries" to boot!

jeez!

Throw in a large coke and eat a bunch of fries, you are looking at 2500+ Calories!

But you can double that sodium for a Full Italian Combo on Ciabatta from Panera Bread!

I would have thought it more calories too but according to the restaurant's website's counter, that meal as quoted includes fries and I added the coke (though a bottomless coke, of course). I suppose it depends on what else a person eats during the day, whether they exercise, etc.

Hi Swimmom. I'm from your neck of the swamp. When I used to eat meat in some other life there were two pretty good places down there. Fudrucker's which since closed (was on Federal in Lauderdale). Also in Pompano (vic Cypress & Atlantic) & Lauderdale (Federal N of Oakland) there's Jack's Old Fashion which I remember was pretty good.

We say red robin Yuuuuuccccckkkk.

Tasteless burger.

We go for Five Guys burgers long before red robin yuuuuucccckkkk ourselves.

I do not even like their fries.

10.00 for a tasteless burger and horrible fries.

Couple more bucks and I can get a good steak at Longhorn.

I thought there were 2 red robins in the area? I could be wrong, i thought that's what i remember seeing when we looked when we first moved here.

I agree with you (GASP), I like red robin. I had 5 guys before and it was total crap.
