Which chain restaurant has the worst food?

[ancjr]

That’s true. There are a couple of mexican places we like around here, and the main thing I like about them is that cheesy decor! It’s all kinda got a 70s vibe, no matter which one you go to.

I like the decor in the Puerto Vallarta in Scottsburg. A lot of painted wood carvings and such. Really colorful.

From what I heard Bubbas is loud. I'm a grumpy old man I guess.

It can get pretty loud, especially if there’s a game on the tvs. We usually go for lunch on Saturdays and it’s not too bad then. I’ve never had a bad meal there, although we had this weird goth girl wait on us once not long after the place opened, she took our drink order and disappeared, we never saw her again! The manager ended up waiting on us, and comped our food and drinks for the trouble, and we’ve never had bad service there since, and we haven’t seen weird goth since either, I guess she moved on.

It's been that way for decades. Like Kaufman said an Italian Sausage Combo is pretty popular up here, I'm not a fan of them.

Yep. Just saying they are the ONLY ones I know of that a combo doesnt always mean a sammitch with fries and a coke. Its fine. It just causes issues for those that are not regulars.

I wouldn't call Five Guys fast, or bad.

All besides Jimmy John’s!

But worst of the worst is Long John Silvers.

Honky Barrel can get too loud for me most days. And I don't really like their menu either...

My brother and I absolutely loved LJS as kids.

Which mod?

I love LJS but it doesnt love me. Tends to make me feel lethargic and bloated 2-3 hours later. But not always. So I suspect it depends on the restaurant. But to each their own. you do you.

As for JJs, I found a sandwich nazi at one store.

Im not a big veggie on my sammich guy. Love veggies and salads, just not mixed into my burgers. So I was looking at the menu my first time at a JJs and ordered a slim jim, which is a plain roast beef.

I asked politely if I could get just one ring of an onion for a little kick. Didnt want a whole slice, or anything like that. Just a tiny bit. "No sir. I'm not allowed to put ANYTHING on this. If you want that one ring of an onion, you have to pay the larger price for all the fixins." "So You want me to pay $2 for less than one bite of onion? Dont you find that a bit ridiculous? " *blank stare* "Never mind. Just make the damn thing plain."

Seriously? Spaghetti with tomato sauce at a chain restaurant? Seriously? You are kidding, right?

The best thing at LJS is the hushpuppies and crunchies. Everything else pretty much sucks.

We loved it all. Swimming in malt vinegar. We'd eat the fish, chicken, fries, hush puppies, slaw all soggy with vinegar. We'd get the plastic cups and do malt vinegar shots. Mom hated it but we loved it.

Hey now, spaghetti factory’s browned butter with mizithra cheese spaghetti dish is great.

Those fries cooked in peanut oil are the best (when they’re hot and fresh).

You!
I saw that you posted you had to stop for LJS.
Really just giving him a hard time for hitting 50.

LJS is pretty simple one, a clean store with fresh oil it can be delicious, otherwise putrid…

If I eat at LJS, I can literally feel the grease oozing out my pores.

On the wife’s due date with the first kid, the MiL, fed her LJS and she went into labor that night.

on our honeymoon we went to the mammoth caves and ate mostly at the Jerry’s there.
I love the Portillos but I usually get the #1, beef.
