Ruby Tuesday's has pretty much the best salad bar in town. Â This is really the main draw of this restaurant. Â Don't get me wrong, all the entrees are very good as well, but not really anything you can't get somewhere else.
They do have several different styles of burgers to keep your taste buds interested.
Ruby Tuesday's isn't bad, in fact my steak was very good, but it isn't a favorite of mine. Â I said at the end of my review of the one in Washington DC that I hoped I never had occasion to go to one again, but relatives were treating me for dinner tonight and suggested this place because it was very close and convenient to the motel I'm in.
The salad bar looked pretty good, both at the bar and on the plates of the people I was with. Â I might go back to try that for lunch sometime. Â The steak was cooked perfect and while it did have strands if gristle in it that made it hard to cut, it had wonderful flavor and chewed very tender. Â The shrimp were small but had good flavor. Â The rice was just okay and tasted like a glorified Rice-a-roni, definitely made from a packaged mix. Â The steamed broccoli was perfect, but the potato, which was the size of a football, tasted looked and tasted like it was recycled from yesterday and had no sour cream or onions, nor was I asked if I wanted any. Â It wasn't white and wasn't flaky inside, and didn't want to mash down and had that funny flavor old baked potatoes get when you take them home to eat the next day.The butter didn't taste like butter--was margarine maybe? Â I would say it was a meal that was worth about $9.99, not $15.99. Â The waitress was very nice and they were totally not busy so we did not feel rushed and sat around talking for a long time after the meal.
