Settling These Not Well Liked Chain Restaurant Debates

Have you ever looked at restaurant ranking lists and disagreed with them majorly. Yep, Me Too!!!

It is not a secret, I don't eat out as much as the average American. There are many popular chain restaurants I've never dined in. I have several reasons(I'll share one on this post). But I still have an opinion on the nationwide restaurants I dislike. These top five may not my most disliked food spots. Some regional places finish that list. But these are the places that I don't mind ever going back to.

Denny's It's diner food. There is nothing unique about it. There was only one menu item, the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich that I felt I needed from this place. And it's no longer offered. Anything else, I think other places do them better.

Dave & Buster's 
If there is a person who goes to D&B for the food, please come and talk to me. I have yet to meet anyone who has ever raved about the food. The food is just standard. This place's only draw is its entertainment & fun choices. And I can't be wrong because I googled images and there are mostly photos of the arcades. 

Joe's Crab Shack One of the reasons why I don't eat out often is because I don't eat healthier when I go out. I am aware my choices of less salt & fat are limited & temptation can be great. And as a person who does not cook with salt, I can and will say, Joe's Crab Shack is bland. It is the blandest food I know to man. I thought it was only like that at one location of the state I live in, but then I visited one in another region of Texas. It was the same black pepper with a hint of garlic one-note, lack of any other seasonings food as the other spot. And I will not pay for tasteless.

Panda Express If the Chinese decide to use the Internet and cuss America out for an hour and it is because of this restaurant, I will understand. I will admit it, Panda Express has come a long way from that non-Chinese dish, Bourbon Chicken, but some cuisine still shouldn't be made into fast food.

Domino's Pizza I can officially say I have never been a fan. Growing up, we only ate Domino's out of town. In most cities that was what was the closest place that delivered. It was soggier than Pizza Hut & Pizza Inn (my childhood favorite). Then I went to college and they redid the recipe. Not as soggy but why is the Thin Crust(my preferred crust) like potato chips with toppings. Again never been a fan.

Like said, these aren't my least favorite restaurants. That title goes to Taco Bueno. Too oily & salty! But it's not a nationwide spot. And in my opinion, if you down have one consider yourself blessed.

Oh, and yeah, I have a Favorites list too. See me praise restaurants HERE.

Everyone can't like everything.
