    Just being honest here... but if you can't answer that without help you are going to have a problem getting through the interview.

    Usually its you want a job... and tell them why you want a job.

    Chicago must be out of their loop. Will surf to see where the nearest one to me is. I may have to visit you.

    ***ADDED*** Hmmm, I must not get out much. "17 Red Robin locations near Chicago, IL" (but none real close by to me... )

    Looks like a great place to work!

    Never ate in one (an ex coworker said it was an OK place to eat)... but drive past one every day... I just don't eat out very often. Much less in DC where this one is. I refuse to do business anyplace I have to pay to park when I can do it closer to home and park for free.. (that the citys fault not this restaurants, its just situated downtown)

    And if you play your cards right and work up through the ranks you can become the guy who gets to walk around in the Robin costume.

    I ate there once - mediocre at best.

    I think they serve alcoholic beverages like beer I guess I would not say because I can get cheap beer! Maybe tell them you would like an opportunity to move up in the business.

    Best tongue in cheek comment of the day - enjoyed it.

    Moving up is always a good answer.

    Or say you've always wanted to dress in a costume for work. I took my step-grandson there, he got one look at the "Robin" and started screaming and we left. I've never been back.

    Say you've always wanted to frighten small children.
