It's simple. It's because it's a chain restaurant. They hate nearly any and all chains. Outback? SUUUUUCKS!!! Actually, I really like their Filet and it's a great value. Ruth's Chris? SUUUUUUUCKS!!! Despite the fact that it's generally the best, if not top 5, steak house in all but a small handful of cities in the U.S. Chili's? same thing, but I wouldn't pass up their ribs or fajitas, as both are in the top 5 of each of their respective categories in Baton Rouge. Louisiana can afford this unnecessary snobbery, but most places (not named Austin, NYC, Chicago, Vegas, San Francisco, or LA) cannot.
I disagree. I'll admit that I prefer local places to chains. But, I can find something worth ordering at Outback (not the filet), Ruth's Chris, or even chili's (not the ribs), but olive garden tastes like a frozen dinner heated up in a microwave. I ate there a couple years ago because it was close to my hotel and I was starving, and it was horrible. I went out of my way to order something simple that I thought would be good. Please tell me what you order that is good there.

Doesn't belong in the same discussion as Outback, Olive Garden, or Chili's. I think most of the food snobs on this board will even admit that you can get a very good meal Ruth's.

I haven't been to Olive Garden in over 10 years, but I'll bite the bullet for my FDB brethren...I'm going to the Astros game Wednesday. If I see this thing, I'll order something and post some pics and a review.

I am not a fan of Outback. But I like Chilis.
I wont eat at Olive Garden. It is terrible.
