Besides for Tsunami I don't understand most of the hate in this thread.
I have never had a bad meal from chimes, and the beer menu makes it an even better place.
George's is what it is. A lunch or dinner after a ball game with the fellas kind of spot. Nothing more, nothing less.
I will say that I am shocked that walkons is not getting hit left and right.
IMO walkons is the most overrated bar/restaurant I have ever been to next to margarita ville in Waikiki. Terrible food, absurdly priced drinks, and a mediocre wait staff.

Walk-On's isn't overrated, because most people that I know and most people on this board feel the same way as you do.

And a lot of the other posts come from somebody that went to a restaurant once during Valentine's Day and had one thing on the menu and a subpar experience and spout off about how the place is horrible.

so many people in the LSU area/community have such non discerning taste in food

The Chimes is underrated for food IMO there stuff is excellent
Exhibit A
As for my original list, every restaurant on there has been mentioned to me on multiple occasions from various people as good places to eat.

See my previous post in this thread.
Overrated doesn't = bad. It means exactly what it says.. Overrated.
Chimes is listed as the number one restaurant in Baton Rouge on several online lists. I visit chimes from time to time (mostly late night because its one of the few places serving food until midnight), but I do not think its anywhere near the best restaurant in Baton Rouge.
