Whats your favorite Restaurant chain ?

[Jeff Krupa]

I just got back from eating dinner with the wife and kiddos. We had some gift cards to Applebees.Let me say, I HATE THIS PLACE. Why do I let her take me there? Even for free I have a hard time going there. What is everyones favorite place to eat and what makes it your favorite ? Lets try to stay under 15 bucks an entree.
My favorite is the Outback. I always get the Outback special Sirloin with loaded baked potato. How about you ?

Jeff:

Sorry to say but I feel the same about Outback that you do about Applebees. I refuse to go there.

I can't say that I'm a big fan of chains but Rainforest Cafe has a nice variety of items on the menu.

An Outback SPECIAL 12OZ steak with their fries and the mashed potatoes. Your making my stomach GROWL!!!

Heck even the burgers, I don't know what they do to meat but I'm a sucker for Outback.

I ate the trios or whatever Applebee's had a few times it's just NOT the same though.

I really like Carraba's and love their olive oil and seasonings to go with the bread!

We've got a gift card for Applebee's too - as well as one to Chili's (or one of their sister chains). We're going to Birmingham in two weeks and figure we'll just use them then to pay for our dinners.

applebees used ot be good when they actually had food. they have pretty much a snack menu anymore

outback isnt that great either

i tend to lean towards buffalo wild wings, fridays, hooters of course these are not the only places i eat but most of the rest are not chains

Baja Fresh always leaves me feeling happy.

Heard of it, we don't have that in NY (at least in my neck of the woods), everything I've heard is good.
