The Red Ramen Burger: New Burger Sensation Available At Red Robin Restaurants Now Through June

By Megan (Weyrauch) Johnson on April 4, 2016

When people think of college students, oftentimes the words that come to mind are “poor,” “stressed” and “ramen.” Ramen noodles are a staple for the on-the-go, budget-conscious college student. And, for those that are not home long enough to cook, fast food proves the easiest option, and burgers and fries rule the day for many students.

But how about a combination of both? The ramen burger — the latest food frenzy to sweep New York and Los Angeles — is going national, according to a recent press release. Starting April 4, guests can venture to Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews (Red Robin) restaurants around the country to whet their appetite for this new culinary creation.

To celebrate the limited time offer, Red Robin has dubbed April 19 Red Ramen Day: the first 22 college students in the door with a valid student ID can get the Red Ramen Burger and Bottomless Steak Fries for only 22 cents — the average cost of a pack of ramen.

“We closely follow emerging trends, and when the ramen burger first debuted, our culinary team worked to develop Red Robin’s take on the foodie favorite, enabling us to be the first to offer it nationally,” said Jonathan Muhtar, Red Robin’s senior vice president and chief marketing officer, in the press release.

Red Robin’s Red Ramen Burger is the restaurant’s latest daring innovation, following ghost pepper and the beer milkshake. The Red Ramen Burger is served on a crispy seasoned ramen bun, topped with teriyaki and Chiu Chow aioli, a medley of chili-infused shredded cabbage, carrot and onion, and garnished with basil.

All guests will receive a $2.22 discount off the new burger in participating restaurants on April 19.
