On that note, I feel like each batch Red Robin provides is fairly small compared to what other restaurants provide. I always have to get at least two in order to feel full.

Veggie burger with bottomless broccoli? Wow...that sounds like a fun meal. For 760 calories, no less.

I do think Red Robin has very good burgers. I am not a huge fan of their fries either but the sweet potato ones are tasty.

We recently moved from Connecticut to a small city in the Upper Midwest/Great Lakes and while there are few decent independent restaurants and breweries with good food, mostly you get chain restaurants. I will admit to liking Chili's nachos.

I recently had dinner at PF Changs in DTW and I must say their dynamite shrimp were really good. Their hot & Sour soup also wasn't bad.
