The burger is the only thing I've had at BJ's that wasn't great. Really liked their fish and chips and their pizza is AWESOME!

Cafe 290 in Manor, TX. From 1992, when I started going there, until they changed ownership in the late '90s or early 2000s, I would claim they had one of the best chicken fried steaks in the State. I wouldn't even bother going in there now. I used to go back and try it every 6 months to a year since it changed, but gave up in 2011.

Only place I can think of that I ate at and thought, "Man this food is horrible", is a little mexican joint off 153 in Winters called Rangel's.
It was BAD! I will forever make the extra drive into Ballinger!!!!

just between you, me and the fence post - a friend of mine got a to go cup for his Shiner Bock there once... I was with him.... maybe that is the cult following? lol.... pretty sure it was a one time deal... and an oversight at that by a young waiter

I've been to Mary's once. Had the CFS as advised and thought it was excellent - they cook it on the flat top rather than deep frying it. I can't speak for anything else on the menu.

Buffalo Wild Wings is definitely dead to me. Their food is garbage, and I've had terrible luck with service on several occasions at different locations... leads me to believe it's more of a management problem. I'm not usually one to knock on the food-service industry. Server's put up with a lot of crap, and not everything is in their control.

I do enjoy exercising my CHL rights in there, however!

Typically any restaurant that is a Chain. Seems that once a restaurant goes big time the quality suffers. Give me a Small business Anytime.

Other then a Number 2 at Sonic

Absolutely agree.
"Pretend food" is peddled by Applebees, Red Lobster, TGI Fridays, Macaroni Grill, and so many others.
