Sno's Seafood - Sub-par food. Bad service (despite the fact 75% of their tables were empty). Went twice, they didn't redeem themselves.

Joe's Crab Shack - agree with rest of y'all. Demand Non-Frozen Shrimp!

T. J. Ribs. - God awful. Don't understand the draw.

Applebee's - I assume they still suck. Haven't gone in years.

Red Lobster - Remember your SAT test? Red Lobster is to seafood as Burger King is to lampshades.

Chili's - Quality Control tailspin. I'd rather eat a Hot Dog Pop Tart that anything on their "menu".

I sound negative, I'm sure, but there are alot of places I do like. I'm not even a picky eater. I just know what I like.

Seriously? Chili's has a lot of decent items on their menu in my opinion. I think they have very good hamburgers.

I'll go back and try one more time, then.

Anything besides a burger you strongly recommend?

Ninfa's-the one in BR is actually the best one I've ever been to strangely

very true. Lafayette Ninfas is horrible. I've only been to the Ninfa's by the Galleria and it was okay...need to go to the OG Ninfa's off Navigation.








I too think Chili's is an alright place. IMO it's one of the best chains out there

Went to IHOP yesterday (Metairie - I10 and Causeway), and it was really good breakfast food, served quick and cheap.

What about IHOP don't you like?

You know, I've got a quaint little breakfast food place right around the corner from my house - Riccabono's. I love that joint. Local people. Foods' good. But the price's are a couple of bucks higher per item than IHOP, and the wait is usually ridiculously long.

FWIW, I like Denny's, too.

I absolutely despise Plucker's. The food is not bad for a wing place but the service is horrible. Had two experiences...delivery took over an hour (told it would be ~30 minutes) with no apology the first time and the second time the waitress muttered comments under her breath every time I asked for a refill. If Plucker's were ground zero for any future weapons testing I would be ecstatic.

I'm actually in that area a lot. I go to the Cuney Projects at least twice a month.

It's actually not that bad. I only get freaked out when I go to the Cuney Projects (oldest projects in Houstn in the 3rd ward, look exactly like NO projects)other than that I'm okay. Shopping at Fiesta and Sellers Bros is always an eventful trip.

BUT WHY, would you go to Chili's for a hamburger when there are MANY locally owned places in B.R. that are 10x better. That is the question.

Ahhh...see I thought you were just crazy in the head when you told me you went to all the Mexican joints around town.

Makes more sense now.
