Towering Onion Rings (Red Robin)

If you’re going to serve onion rings, stacking them into a tower is one way to announce that subtlety has left the building. Red Robin’s Towering Onion Rings give this league a killer visual card and an immediate grudge match: tower versus bloom. Does the classic onion ring format beat Outback’s pull-apart spectacle? And can either fried-onion contender survive against the bread armies, loaded fries, queso, and Southwestern Eggrolls? This is crispy, shareable comfort food built for the middle of the table, but there’s nowhere to hide in head-to-head voting. Pick the starter you’d actually reach for first.
