I have a little Mexican joint near me.  I'm in Virginia.  I know it isn't truly authentic, great Mexican food.  They have chips and salsa, they have beer, they have decent burritos, good service, and don't cost an arm and a leg.  I'm good with that.

I live in bumfuckville South Carolina and I've found a great Mexican restaurant here.

"Alicia's #1"

There are a few mills here that employ a lot of hispanics, so there's a fairly large community here.  $1 tacos, $1 tamales, fried tortillas and salsa come with your meal if you eat in.  Flautas are freaking great. 

Now I'm hungry in the Fud thread.

National chains are mainly an abomination, pretty much fried crap. Friday's, Chili's, Olive Garden, Applebee's, Red Lobster etc are freaking horrid.

Cheesecake Factory is tolerable because the menu is gigantic, Carraba' s is tolerable, better than the other Italian places mentioned. They're (Cheesecake Factory sorry for breaking that up) menu items have a gazillion calories so be careful you might have four meals in one.

One place you can get a cheap ok streak is the Longhorn, for the money, it's decent but the menu can be a minefield.

I think BJ' s Steakhouse/Brewhouse is a national chain, they're pretty good, better than anything mentioned here by a longshot.

Other than that, the only time I would go to any of those places, specifically the real crappy one's, is to meet a group or forced.


PF Chang's is ok but not worth a three freaking hour wait at most locations, it's not worth any wait.



Honestly, BJ's was better when it was just a pizza place in Laguna Beach.  It had one little local expansion, then it blew up and just turned all its food to excrement.

There's an unrelated group of restaurants here called El Tarasco.  All different except for the fried tortillas.  Full tortillas served up in stacks.  You break them into chips yourself.

In b4 everyone says every chain restaurant is bad because the kewlest kids don't eat there.

Famous Dave's is the excrement. I love that freaking place.

I like Famous Dave's.  That's probably at the top end for a chain restaurant.  That and Lucille's (I don't know how widespread Lucille's is).

EDIT: Lucille's is California, Nevada, and Arizona only.

Hahaha.

He's not saying it's the best BBQ anywhere, but I'd rather eat there than any other chain restaurants.  If I want legit BBQ, though, I go elsewhere.

I'll try any chain once, especially when it's something we don't have in the city or the region. When we went to VA to help in-laws move I had to derail everyone's plan to have McDonalds breakfast to have Hardee's instead.

Hardee's has some underrated breakfast.  Their biscuits are better than McD's or Burger King.

Oh, are we talking about fast food too?

Taco Bell.  It's not Mexican food.  It's Taco Bell.  It's exactly where I go when I want Taco Bell.

Also, Chik Fil A.

Fajitas are shitty white people Mexican food.

That may be so but having never lived anywhere further south than Toronto I know freak all about Mexican food, but I know how to make fajitas and I like them.

I went to a high end Mexican restaurant in Chicago (not Rick Bayless's place, the other one) and it was really good. It was a few years ago and I got shitfaced drunk, so I couldn't tell you what I had. It wasn't fajitas.

Compared to the chain places here, it's pretty good, I haven't had a bad meal there but I order the same 4 or 5 items I know are good.
