The server came to the table immediately to ask for drink order, which I ordered a Coke Zero. I told her I had a headache and she brought the soda immediately. I proceeded to order the salad bar with pasta. Chicken broccoli Alfredo. I should of known not to order this from an all American restaurant. Let's stick to burgers, fries, and the salad bar at Ruby Tuesday's. The pasta was quite bland and the broccoli was mush. I don't blame anyone but myself for ordering pasta from here but the broccoli could have had, at the very least, some crunch. The server brought me three more Coke Zero, stopped by for some nice chit chat, and it was a very nice and relaxing evening.

There seemed to be a dedicated staff member for the salad bar, and he did an excellent job maintaining its cleanliness and keeping up with the demand, even in a packed dining room. Our server was a bit slow but friendly. The menu has seen some updates, but it still offers classic American dishes. I found the petite sirloin and fried shrimp combo to be just the right portion. The steak was grilled to a perfect medium-rare and weighed in at around 4-6 ounces, which was ideal. The salad bar was, as always, fantastic, featuring all the usual options. I requested an extra side plate from the manager to keep the fried shrimp from getting soggy from the steak, and while he was on his way to bring it, he unfortunately got caught up with another customer and I believe he forgot. However, when he remembered as we were settling our bill, he graciously apologized and brought us a slice of cheesecake, which was a lovely gesture. RT remains one of the few places around that offers a solid salad bar, and I’m happy to see such improvement in food and service. We will definitely return.

While it may not be the largest salad bar I've encountered (I grew up in Northern California), it's definitely the best in the Ann Arbor area. The burgers and steaks are hearty, and the seafood is consistently good. The service here is exceptional—I've always been treated well. Yes, it's a chain, but it feels like a locally-owned family restaurant! I definitely recommend it!

I ordered my favorite burger, the mushroom and Swiss, which was flavorful, juicy, and cooked to perfection. It came wrapped thoughtfully, helping to keep it intact until I got home. There are plenty of sides to choose from, and I opted for a baked sweet potato, which turned out to be quite large. Even though I was very hungry, I couldn't finish it all. I'm not worried about leftovers, as they will make for a tasty lunch the next day. Knowing I’d be dining here, I chose a smaller popcorn at the show and was still quite full.

Had the bourbon honey glazed salmon, cheese Brussels sprouts and upgraded to salad bar. Then finished off with the Apple crisp and Ice Cream stuff. It was really good.
