Red Robin has roots going back to the 1940s, with the first so-named restaurant appearing in Seattle in 1969. They expanded to Portland OR in 1980, to Canada and Japan in 1985 before going nationwide in 2000.
2. What is the name of the Las Vegas eatery that features the Quadruple Bypass Burger, which weighs in at 10,000 calories, and Flatliner Fries?

The Heart Attack Grill unashamedly serves over-the-top unhealthy meals, served by buxom young women scantily clad in "nurses'" outfits. Oh, and any customer that weighs over 350 pounds eats for free.
3. Which chain that began in Southern California features French fries cut on site from whole potatoes and burger choices including the "Double Double" and "Animal Style"?

Answer: In-N-Out Burger

In-N-Out Burger was exclusively a Southern California treat from its founding in 1948 until the late 1990s. The restaurant has slowly expanded to now include Northern California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Texas.
