Message: | robins started as an upscale coffee shop in an old lawrys "totinos" italian idea. recently switched to bbq. i went early in their reincarnation and was not impressed. three different sauces, all lousy. meat was fair. they offer beef ribs, st. louis and baby back cuts. i told waitress then they were doomed to failure because a true bbq lover would find them mediocre at best. they're still around, still have all you can eat nights, serve more than just bbq: burgers, pizza, chili, etc. i still go there but not for bbq. check out the la chowhound bbq tasting for best in city. robins would not make the list. |
