My first sign to run should have been that it was 75% empty on Cinco de Mayo. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but it was obvious that this visit would be short.The staff did not welcome or seat us (it's not like they were busy or anything), so we made our way to the bar. The bartender wasn't very welcoming either, but at least he acknowledged our presence.The chips and salsa were gross. The chips tasted stale and the salsa looked like a bowl of watery tomato paste with onions bobbing around in it. And it tasted about as good as that sounds. YUCK! I mean, how do you mess up chips and salsa?!?I decided to order a margarita with sugar while I scanned the menu. What I received tasted like a glass full of margarita mix. It was not balanced, shaken, or blended. I bet the bartender did little more than pour something from a jug over ice and sit it in front of me.My boyfriend was equally unimpressed and recommended that we go to one of the better Mexican spots in the area instead. I happily agreed. Getting the hell out of there was, by far, the best part of our visit.

Iconic Maryland bar and restaurant serving famous crab dip, fresh & never frozen 100% beef burgers, fan-favorite wings, a $7.99 lunch menu, and a wide selection of local, craft, and specialty beers. Always a good game on TV, and every seat has a good view

I arrived from the rear parking lot and was taken back at how big and well-appointed this sports bar restaurant was once inside and seated. The lighting is more toward bright than dark which was a surprise thinking it would be a very low-lit establishment. There are a lot of TVs and an assortment of tables, booths, high tables and a long bar. I started with pint of Shell Raiser IPA ($5) and Hog Hammer ($9) appetizer. My entrée was the build your own burger. You start with a 1/2-pound patty ($7.99) and choice of roll, sesame for me. I added a second burger ($2.99) cheese ($.99), and lettuce, pickles, tomato (raw onion available) at no additional charge. Then I added sautéed onions ($.49), bacon ($1.49) for bacon. Fries were $.99. So, the total cost for the one-pound burger was $13.95 and with the fries $14.94. The two Hog Hammers were excellent blew me away. They were very tender and meaty, with a delicious dark BBQ sauce. The burger was over cooked and would have been a winner if done medium as requested. The fries were very good, crisp outside and tender inside. They serve Heinz ketchup.Hello, Mr. Ocho!Thanks so much for taking the time to write this thorough review! We appreciate your visit and your feedback--and we hope we'll see you again very soon!

We are members of Red Robin Royalty and are frequent visitors to various Red Robin restaurants. This visit was a disappointment. Our server was very friendly at the beginning of our visit. We started with the monster sized Salted Caramel Milkshake to share. It was nice, but tasted like an ordinary Vanilla milkshake - nothing special, no caramel taste. I ordered Clucks and Shrimp, which was advertised with the Bottomless Fries. My dining companion ordered a burger. It took forever for us to get our entrees, which is unusual for a Red Robin. Our meals finally arrived and I could not find any shrimp in my basket, and there were zero french fries. When our server returned later on to check on us, I explained that I have no shrimp and no fries either. She brought me a few shrimp that tasted like they were fried in old stale oil, or the shrimp had been sitting in a freezer for a long time and had freezer burn. The coating fell off of the shrimp. I only received a small portion of fries, as she didn't know that my entree came with fries. And she never returned to ask if we wanted any more of the fries or water refills.And then it was time to pay the check. I had a Red Robin gift card and I know it's a problem to use them with the electronic payment system that is located at the table. It would have been nice if the server could have said - let me handle that for you. But she didn't. We kept having to call her back and she could not make the table payment work either. Such a hassle. We are not in a hurry to come back to the Germantown location. And if you want a nice Red Robin experience - go to the Frederick, MD location. The staff there is amazing and you are treated like Royalty. No hassles, pleasant staff, fast hot food that you ordered, and the server handles the payment for you. Germantown management needs to learn how to property run a Red Robin.
