We had one years ago in BR and it shut down. Maybe this one will do better.

The franchisee that owned the Mall of La location fifteen years ago, was not a natural restaurateur, underfunded, lacked the outlay for the recommended stand-alone out-front suggestion by corporate, then ran the mall entrance location awfully..

My cousin (Colo grad/Denver resident) was RR's expansion location architect for many years, he knew their whole story.

RR has solid burgers and fries, they are what they are..nothing more. If run properly, RR has a solid product and environment.

Where is it going? My guess is old ruby Tuesday building on corporate.

I ate at one outside Nashville and enjoyed it. Burger was solid and who doesn't like endless fries? Definitely serves beer too.

I ate at one in Seattle. Decent place. I got a French Dip sandwich and it was really good.


I wish we had one here in LC. Then again, I wish we had a lot of stuff in LC.

It's a burger place for kids and family with a lot of alcohol as well.

It doesn't pretend to be commanders palace.

Given the food is decent, shakes are very good, and the service and managers are trained to basically do backflips, this is a good chain to get if we are going to have chains.

My favorite burger will always be port of call. If going with young kids, it would be Red Robin though any day of the week.

It's a burger chain they have a lot of up here, it's gross. On the lower end of quality of the upscale chains (but obviously better than fast food like Burger King). Mooyah and five guys are much better. It looks appealing but they must use poor quality food as I get the runs after I eat there. The only exception are the onion rings tower. That's good.
