Outback is nothing like it used to be .. i.e.- when I was in college and the Outback Special was $11.99 and the steak you got was actually a good size and of good quality. I went about a year ago to one in Alabama with some family and it was a shell of it's former self.

Don't get me wrong, it's not a favorite of mine and not fine dining, but it is way better than Applebee's, Chili's, TGIF etc.

Olive Garden and Chilis are the two I despise going to.



I haven't been to any of these in like a decade. constantly hear shitty things about them .. at least from anyone with a brain.

And to reply to the topic, I'd have to say Friday's. We go to some really nice places from time to time but whenever I leave it up to my sons (like a birthday, special occasion for them etc) I'll be damned if they don't pick Friday's every damned time! But, they like it and I love hanging out with them so it's really enjoyable. But for the food, I'm very "meh" on it. I just keep the bartender busy on my visits to Friday's and it's all good.

I HATE HATE HATE La Fonda in Lafayette. Why the shite do I want to go wait 2+ hours for a table and eat shitty food. I don't give any shits if their margarita's are strong. You can't get to the damn bar because it's so small. Pisses me off! And why the eff are they so damn busy all the time?!

I would probably say Felipe's personally. One of my friends is a booze hound and obsesses over their margaritas.

Other than places like McDonald's I can find something decent to eat at most places. I'd never turn down a friend or family because I don't like the choice made. I value spending time with them more than I care about the food. I'd say Copeland's is the most frequent place. I don't like Copeland's. I got a salad there last month and it was fine. No big deal. I'd eat there once a week if a friend wanted to do that.

I don't go there often. The only time I do go is when dragged.

Rum House.
There can't be a more overrated place in the State of Louisiana. I defy you to name one....

Count go check Social out. It isn't that bad. Don't expect a quiet dinner with a lady (if you bring one). It's a really great place
