Ruby Tuesday’s

I wish there were separate category ratings for places, especially restaurants. Service was good, food fine but selection for a veggie was lame. It’s 2014. how do you not have a veggie patty when you have a full page of burger options?
To be fair they had a salad bar but when you want something substantial or warm and your a veggie you’re out of luck.

It did the trick. It is the only place serving alcohol past the security checkpoint at this terminal. I had a bacon cheeseburger or something to that effect. and 2 beers. It was packed when i got there but i got a table pretty quickly. however after i sat down people just piled into the door and there were a lot of people standing. Over all the service was good and the food too.

Seriously overpriced wine!!! Food was decent.

Great service! Food was just OK though. Always love that salad bar, though!

Seriously, F*ck this place.
A) It’s in the airport. Ugh.
B) The waiter sucked. You don’t dawdle around with people waiting in an airport. People got places to be.
C) The cheapest glass of wine is $ 9.99. For Beringer. You can buy two bottles of it for 10 bucks in the liquor store. It’s ridiculous. At least it was a decent sized glass!
D) Soup & Salad was $ 9.99. The soup alone was $ 9.49. WTF?
E) The bean soup was actually pretty tasty, except that it was White Bean CHICKEN Chili. One single lonely piece of chicken made it to my bowl.

Let me explain why an airport chain resturant receives five stars.
I seem to always find myself in here while flying out of Detroit, and I always have fun. Sure, my nervousness of flying brings me in here for my standard gin and tonic to steady my nerves pre flight, and often grab at least a small bite to eat to tide me over, BUT the draw is the people.
The bartenders are great. They are friendly, chatty, and do their job as therapist, friend, sports fan, complaint department, and trivia queen exceptionally well. They encourage conversation between customers, which has actually lead me to a few friendships that I still carry over to the time I write this review.
Lately I was in here on Christmas day, and it was one of the better parts of the day. The atmosphere between the six of us at the bar, who did not know each other, and the bartender as well as a cook, was like that of a holiday party with an open bar. We were all laughing, arguing about sports (hockey is better than basketball), and enjoying the company while traveling away from out families. It was odd, but I was actually a little sad to leave when I had to board my flight.
The fact that more than once the bartender has made a «mistake» drink which has been offered to me complimentary is also a nice perk.
