My wife has just gone out of the door to take our daughter to the dentists and i made the mistake of asking what was for dinner! Her reply was unprintable (even here) but the basic gist was make it myself You sure that wasn't my wife? 
"Io sono stanco, sono imbigliato, and I wan't everyone here to know, there ain't gonna be no trouble from me..Don Corleone..Cicc' a port!"
"I stood in the courtroom like a fool."

Man, I really feel like having a steak tonight... maybe I will.  Maybe you should  I had steak tonight. Go for it! What a fucking disaster!  It was after 7 (wanted to catch Idol) so I went somewhere close that was decent (I thought). I like Ruby Tuesday burgers and salad bar, so figured it'd be safe. I ordered the $17 Premium Aged Prime Sirloin for the first time and think I might now be a vegetarian! Fucking awful!! Everything was WAY too salty, even the broccoli. The "steak" was a bit tough and dry (medium-rare? and even more salty, probably like a weeks' worth of Sodium!). I almost just left it there, but God knows I hate to waste food. I wish I had a dog at this point, but probably wouldn't even feed it to him! Shocking, because I really love Ruby Tuesday burgers and crab cake sandwiches -- and the salad bar is top notch (they even charged $3 more for that with a $17 entree??). Add 1 beer and tip, and a $30 disappointment for a "party" of one. CC: Ruby Tuesday

I got a response from Ruby Tuesday already (I always feel guilty after knowing they read my harsh words  ) Hello Geoff, Sorry to hear that you were displeased with the amount of seasoning on your meal. I appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience. I would also like to thank you for the positive comments about us as well. I would like to express to you that our servers and our managers are fully empowered to make things right for our guests while they are still in the restaurant. You should not hesitate to say something while visiting us if you are not 100% satisfied with your food or service. We do generously season our food, so I might add that when ordering you may want to ask the server to have the kitchen go light on seasoning and expect that you will be very happy with your choices in the future. Could you please provide me with some information off of your receipt, the check# and date and time of your visit. This will help me verify and resolve your complaint to your satisfaction. I look forward to receiving this information and continuing our relationship with you as a valued guest. I still get nervous complaining in a chain restaurant, though, because who knows what "happens" in the kitchen. Edit: Just got this reply back: Thank you for the information. Please allow me to send to you a gift card for you to visit us again and allow us the opportunity to show you some new menu items that will begin on the 29th. See, it pays to speak up sometimes.

Geoff, is there anyone that you really really do not like? If so give them that gift card!  The whole chain must be bad. My mom and sister went to one around our way a couple months ago. Everytime they drive by it they draw the x sign. They said it was horrible. I've been there twice in my life. And BOTH times became deathly sick from their food. The first I had a cheeseburger and a hot wings appetizer, as did a friend that I was with. On the ride home we both started to complain that we were not feeling well. Turns out that a few days later when we spoke we learned that we both had the same "symptoms" and sickness when we got home from Ruby Tuesdays. Then about a year or so later I went to another Ruby Tuesdays with the family. 3 out of the four of us got sick to our stomachs. Only my wife did not get sick. All she had was the salad bar and the soup. The rest of us ordered appetizers and dishes off the menu and we got sick. Ruby Tuesday sucks.
