cheesecake factory is on a whole different level than any of those other places, CF is the fuckin bomb

what made you pick some of those, though? like in a comparison between outback and olive garden, outback wins easily, but against carrabbas it would be a much harder choice- same with bonefish vs red lobster

all i know about cheesecake factory is that there's one dead center in beverly hills downtown and its continued ability to pay the rent in that location proves forever that beverly hills people have no taste

chipotle is not a restaurant where you are served in the same manner as the restaurants listed in the op. this is a very specific poll, xaris

The last time I was at cheesecake factory they were out of loving cheesecake. Like, I ordered 4 different kinds that they didn't have before giving up and leaving. I don't know how much more a restaurant could gently caress up their fundamental mission.

I am a shameful foreigner and America has slacked on exporting its chain restaurants compared to other fast food franchises. Come on America, this is no way to assure your continued cultural dominance.

unfortunately all our awesome chain restaurants are losing business and have no plans to expand into foreign markets because americans are too poor to afford even 2 for $20 meal deals

Theres not a big difference between wendys and applebees anyway

Tho i would rather eat at wendys

Sometimes i go to applebees to watch a game if its after 9 because $4 quesadillas are p much the cheapest thing you can sit down and have somebody else cook for you

BWWW is good because you can go there and have a drink or two before seeing a movie or while waiting to meet up with others, which is pretty nice. during the summer u can usually sit outside at the local mall while having a tall draft beer with a couple wings while people watching, being from puritanical suburban Massachusetts doing that kinda feels a little naughty (we dont exactly have drive through margarita places around here).

I'm surprised u can get a beer as well as liquor (a margarita) in most chipotles around here as well...i always thought that a liquor license costs tens of thousands of dollars and was something that you had to apply and be on a waiting list for. it's weird that only Fridays/Chilis/Applebees, etc. casual american chain dining type places are the only places that serve supersized draft beers.
