The first Lettuce Entertain You restaurant, Grunts still exudes the funky, devil-may-care lifestyle of the 70s in its style, décor, music, and menu. Happily for all of us, the best eating of that day continues to be some of the best today. While there's a huge menu that's as much fun to eat your way through as it is to read, many of Grunts' old favorites spark return visits. The burgers are arguably the best in town. The new 'digital' salad bar boasts many of your favorite fresh ingredients daily. Giant malts and milkshakes are hand scooped and come in a rainbow of favors. Oh! Don't forget the barbecued baby back ribs, and sandwich specials.

Overall, just an average experience. We started with the corn dip and was warm but not hot but did have good flavor. Both of our burgers were good and cooked correctly. The sweet potato fries were warm not hot and clearly were frozen and not fresh. We will likely not be going back and Gordon Ramsey should be concerned based on his standards that you see on his shows.
