Alert your taste buds! Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (Red Robin) is just weeks away from bringing even more craveable gourmet burgers to Chicago, with the opening of their newest Red Robin located at 20506 North Rand Road at Deer Park Town Center across from The Gap on Monday, Oct. 17, at 11 a.m. Red Robin – known as the gourmet burger expert – offers more than two dozen high-quality gourmet burgers served with Bottomless Steak Fries^® (which means free refills!) as well as a variety of salads, entrees, soups and wraps made with the freshest ingredients, many of which are made in-house.

To celebrate Red Robin’s grand opening and demonstrate its commitment to the community, the new restaurant has partnered with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) to host a Burgers With A Heart^® fundraiser. During grand opening week, from Oct. 17 to 23, Red Robin will donate 50 cents from every gourmet burger sold to support NCMEC’s child safety initiatives. In addition, Red Robin will give away FREE* Child ID Kits.

“Child ID Kits are a simple, yet effective method to help parents and guardians maintain a current photograph and other descriptive details about their children,” said Ernie Allen, president and CEO of NCMEC. “We want to thank Red Robin for helping us spread the word about child safety to help make communities across the country safer.”

Red Robin’s gourmet burgers start with a fresh, never frozen, ground beef patty that is fire-grilled to a perfect juiciness. Red Robin also offers a chicken breast, turkey patty, fish sandwich or a vegetarian or vegan burger patty for those guests who are craving something other than beef. Layered on top, from more than 100 different topping options, is a tasty combination of ingredients with a variety of flavor profiles. Some of the most popular burgers are the Whiskey River^® BBQ Burger with signature BBQ sauce and hand-battered crispy onion straws; the signature Royal Red Robin Burger^® which has been a guest favorite for more than 40 years and is topped with a fresh fried egg; and the Banzai Burger with a teriyaki-glazed beef patty and a grilled pineapple ring, to name a few.
