Kick off National Allergy Awareness Month with Red Robin + Giveaway

Nowadays, finding burger restaurants that are delicious and cater to food allergies just got a lit bit easier thanks to Red Robin.
The Customizer Hub on Red Robin.com lets you build allergen menus based on dietary restrictions. I created a variety of menu options based on my daughter’s dairy allergy.With the Customizer Hub, you have two options: “Customize Your Nutrition” and “Build a Customized Allergen Menu.” Once you select the Allergen Menu, you can view recommended tailored meals. I also downloaded the app which offers the same features as the website but have access with the touch of a finger tip, in addition to saving your  meal options.

First, select your restrictions. Second, select your options by category. Selections will appear that should be avoided as well as options that are suitable with modifications. Sure, dairy might seem like an easy one to avoid but it’s still one that we have to be conscious of.

A big thank you to Red Robin for providing gift cards for us to enjoy a family dinner on them! Everything on the kid’s menu looked scrumptious and I liked the variety of kids sides which included apple slices, baby carrots and steamed broccoli! My daughter ordered the Rad Robin Hamburger from the Kid’s menu, along  with a Lemonade and Side Salad (no cheese or croutons). She gobbled up the yummy burger and yearned for another! I couldn’t blame her. I’ve always loved Red Robin’s gourmet burgers and my other weakness is their Bottomless Steak Fries®.

My husband and I ordered burgers, of course. How could you visit Red Robin and not try one of their mouthwatering flame-grilled burgers? The Red Robin’s Finest caught our eye. My husband tried the Smoke & Pepper  (topped with black-pepper bacon, extra-sharp Chedder with house-made Smoke & Pepper ketchup) while I went for the D.G.B Burger Oven-roasted tomatoes, savory roasted garlic aioli and fresh arugula tossed in citrus olive oil). Both were served on a ciabatta bun and cooked just the way we like it. My burger was heavy on the arugula but I loved the combination of flavors.

It’s good to know the Customizer Hub on Red Robin.com now has a broader array of menu options, including over two dozen delicious burgers. Plus, being aware of nutritional content is a feature that patrons will appreciate. Considering my daughter’s dairy intolerance, Red Robin offers numerous recommendations for those with her dietary restrictions as well as other allergies.

More Information about the Interactive Allergen Menu:

•   Red Robin trains all restaurant Team Members to allow guests to modify their Red Robin food or beverage order to suit their taste or dietary preferences. If a guest has a food allergy, the Red Robin team member will ring in the order with an allergy alert and bright type so it is clear on the table order.
•   This allergen alert appears in easily noticeable bright, red and bold letters on the order and notifies the kitchen that a special allergen kit is required for the order. Red Robin uses allergen kits to prepare all allergen orders. The kits include tools that are for use on allergen orders only and are purple to clearly distinguish them from other kitchen tools. Purple is the color of Allergen Awareness.
•  Red Robin provides the guest with information so they can make an educated decision on what to order themselves, whether it’s for food intolerances or food allergies.
