Chevy's... Chili's... Applebees... TGIFriday... Fuddruckers

[Taverner]

What shall it be?

:evilgrin:

[peacefreak]

1. Olive Garden

:rofl: :evilgrin: :rofl:

[Taverner]

2. I would, but we don't have one in Dublin yet

We do have Macaroni Grill... :evilgrin:

[Adsos Letter]

11. ......

Or...you could go to "Il Fornaio" (sp?) in Walnut Creek...great Italian food..

[Gormy Cuss]

16. Wow, I had no idea Dublin was such a dining hotspot.

No need to go to Pleasanton or haul up 680 to those other towns.
:+

[Taverner]

22. Well its right next to me

And Hacienda Crossings...Tassajara...Owens Road...huh? huh?

[Fox Mulder]

14. I went there for the first time a couple of weeks ago.

I thought it was fantastic!

:)

:hide:

[Arugula Latte]

24. Or Oliveto's in Rockridge.

That's still there, right?

[supernova]

3. Ruby Tuesday

:D

[TommyO]

18. Triple Prime Burger....

MMMMMMMmmmmmm.......

Not for the vegans or vegetarians among us, but for us omnivores, YUM!

[terrya]

27. Ruby Tuesday's is pretty good.

I like it.

[supernova]

38. OMG, a chain

some of us actually like?


Have I found the Lounge Holy Grail of Food?!?

[grace0418]

44. Do you go to the one in Loser Mall... I mean... Lincolnwood Town Center?

It's really not too bad. I have to admit!

[grace0418]

43. You know what, I hate chain restaurants but I have to give Ruby Tuesday props

for having an excellent salad bar. Sometimes when I go out with work friends, you just end up at chain restaurants. And I was very pleasantly surprised at how varied and fresh the salad bar was there. They even had mixed baby greens and *RIPE* tomatoes. Usually when you get a salad at one of those places it's iceberg with a light pink slice of tomato and some cucumber.

[ElizabethDC]

4. I've never been to a Fuddruckers or a Chevy's

but I nominate Chili's.

[AlCzervik]

5. Red Robin, i'd say Chevy's but their salsa gives me agida.

also like On the border.

[EstimatedProphet]

13. Yeah, Red Robin rocks!

[regnaD kciN]

25. ...or, as I call it, "Dead Dobbin"...

:evilgrin:

Actually, their food is pretty good overall...but only a company owned by a Japanese conglomerate could think nachos should have lettuce...added before they go into the broiler. :crazy:

[EstimatedProphet]

28. Never had thier nachos

But that Southwest burger is fantastic!

[krispos42]

42. Red Robin works for me

Very tasty place.

[Critters2]

6. I honestly can't tell the difference between TGIFriday's and Applebee's

Not too impressed with Chili's menu. Hard to be veg at Fuddrucker's.

Never been to a Chevy's.

So, hey, let's give Chevy's a try!

[Taverner]

7. Oh totally different. Everything at TGIFridays is salty

At Applebees they just put salt on everything

As for Chevy's - their secret ingredient is salt

And Chili's, they use Sodium Chloride

;)

[Xithras]

8. I'd say Chevy's.

Assuming you don't have an On The Border around, it's as close as you're going to get to authentic Mexican without hitting a taqueria.

[Left Is Write]

9. I've never had Chevy's.

I like Friday's, but I'm pissed at our local one for getting rid of NTN trivia. Fuddrucker's...meh. Chili's...meh.

I guess I'd go for Applebees. You can get a tasty margarita from them.

[TommyO]

20. I forgot, their Ultimate Margarita is pretty good

Combine that with the appetizers that I mentioned earlier, and you can count me in.

[KatyaR]

10. A Quesadilla Explosion from Chili's, please.

Oh, yum, I know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow--except I want it NOW!!!

Instead I'll be having a lovely frozen dinner from Stouffer's--sigh . . . .

Thanks a lot, Taverner--now I'm craving salad!

[Adsos Letter]

12. Outback Steakhouse...

[regnaD kciN]

26. Outback is a big Republican donor...

:puke:

[Adsos Letter]

39. I did not know that...thanks for the heads up!

Can I still post in the Photo forum...as long as I promise not to eat at Outback? :D

[RedStateShame]

36. More importantly, the have those god-awful commercials with the Of Montreal shill

Remember when musicians were ostracized for selling their songs?

[Danger Mouse]

15. Ruddfuckers!

I always like saying that.
Stick with them, their burgers kick ass.

[TommyO]

17. Applebees after 9:00 for their 2-for-1 appetizers

It makes a great stop after starving at an amusement park all day because your friends are "frugal"

[Beaverhausen]

19. Chevy's has a really yummy veggie quesadilla on their appetizer menu

it's enough for dinner for one, or a very filling appetizer for two. It has avacado, artichoke and I forget what else but it's really good.

[Flaxbee]

21. that sounds good -- I've never been to a Chevy's, but

perhaps we'll try one next time we're anywhere near a bigger town.

Fuddrucker's has an OK veggie burger, esp. since you can doctor it up any way you like to at their burger bar....

[Fleshdancer]

23. I hate to say it but....

the Southwestern eggrolls at Chili's are actually pretty good.

[Frank Cannon]

29. Chili's Mushroom Jack Fajitas are pretty good too

Along with that Mountain Fudge Cake or whatever they call it.

Mmm. Guess I know where I'm going to dinner tonight.

[AngryAmish]

31. I have a soft spot for Chili's

There, I said it.

[slj0101]

30. Either Flinger's or Tchotchkes .

Tchotchkes has more flair. :)

[Strawman]

32. Chilis or Fuddruckers

[SoxFan]

33. Ninety-Nine

The stuffed haddock is actually quite good.

And this is xoming from a guy who usually avoids the sit-down chains.

[MilesColtrane]

34. P.Q. Saddlemeyers McHappy Funatorium™....

I'm looking for investors.

[bikebloke]

35. Beenie Weenie in Arlington

Down by Four Mile Run in Shirlington. It's been there forever. Not that I've ever eaten here. You get a greasy taste in your mouth just riding by.

[GirlinContempt]

37. Oh my god, I mis Fudruckers

Probably just because of memories, I have no idea if it was even that good, cause it's been so long.
But I *LOVED* that place.

[Roon]

40. Ruddefuckers

[LaraMN]

41. Guess what I ate for lunch?

A Little Debbie cake and a bottled water.
I took the kids to the zoo and forgot to pack myself a lunch.

:puke:

[kwassa]

45. Chevy's is corporate Mexican ....

I like the atmosphere and food anyway. we don't get the good mom-and-pop Mexican places like Los Angeles, anyways.

I was in Moscow about five years ago ..... there were 60 McDonalds, and I saw TGIFridays, Sbarros Pizza, and KFC, all in Cyrillic letters.

the mallization of the world!
