Since that is all BR has anyway.

I'm going with Zea's and J. Alexanders

Ruth's Chris Steak House

Unfortunately, it's one of the best overall restaurants in Baton Rouge as well.

Don't get me wrong...I won't eat at Mcdonalds(I value my calories too much)...but It is cheap and filling...ie...best value.

I try not to waste my calories on fast food either but I'd rather get something from Wendy's or Sonic's dollar menu. Burger king is just terrible IMO. They all make me have a stomach ache after I eat it...

Best Chain = Flemmings, TDB, Zea
Best Local = Louisiana Lagniappe
Worst Pizza = Fleur De Crap

Probably Fleming's for the best.

Joe's Crab Shack for the worst.

Any of the upscale steak places...

J Alexander's
The Grape

I'm sure there are several other pretty decent chains.

I think Carraba's is ok for what it is

Since you asked, I don't go to Chili's unless I am with a group of people who want to go there. Why? Because the food sucks. The point of my post was that consistency is a poor way to judge "best". McDonald's is also very consistent (and better than Chili's). That doesn't make it the best restaurant.
