You can only pick three restaurants to go to for the rest of your life.

[eyeroll] At people complaining about there not being any *good* restaurants on the list.
THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT.

Good?? If I were lucky enough to win the lottery, I would die a very full and satisfied man eating from that list every.single.day. Living the damn American Dream.
I disagree. For the cost most of these restaurants are good. I’m sure you can go spend 3-4X the cost and get a better meal. Depends of how you value your money. I’m just as full after a meal at one of these joints as a fancy place. But if you don’t eat somewhere overpriced you can’t come on here and brag about it.
Imagine eating at a place where you throw your peanut shells on the floor and tell some hot young thang to bring you another beer. EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.
You wouldn't get tired of that.

Good lord... 7 votes for Applebees???
Cheesecake Factory is the worst place in the history of anything. I'd rather eat at a Rally's run as a meth front than ever go to that godforsaken hell hole.
F*** anyone who picked it. If the menu needs a table of contents, GFY.

In a post apocalyptic hellscape where you can only eat at three barely average restaurants For the rest of your life that’s a huge advantage.
Burger and Wonton Tacos. Good stuff. I’ll eat pretty much anything there but the ‘steak’ and riblets (had a bad experience with those that haunts me to this day)
The quesadilla burger at Applebees is freaking delicious. Don't @ me.
Oh, I don't know, how about two plates of heaven on Earth with a side of making all your sweetest dreams come true?
Does TGIF have decent burgers? It seems like their philosophy is to pile as much bacon and other **** as they can on 'em to keep the fats satisfied. That's the only reason I can think to pick them on this list.
I've had too many bad experiences at Applebee's to ever consider them. Plus, it just seems like any time I go to one there's a certain sort of hopelessness and withdraw that just hangs in the air. Like the regulars have just dropped out of life and there's this lingering feeling like someone's car is going to get smashed out in the parking lot at any moment by a hit-and-run driver and everyone is just quietly eating and waiting for the sound of the crash.
FWIW, Roadhouse is the only one of those I ever go to at least once a year. I think it's legitimately good. I like Chili's, but TBH it's really no better than Applebee's but for whatever reason I can rationalize it. The rest I couldn't really care about. I've probably eaten at the other 8 besides Roadhouse and Chili's less than 20 times combines. My 3rd vote went to Ruby's because while I never eat there, I recall their chicken fingers were above and beyond awesome....not something that ever stands out or something I really ever order.
Texas Roadhouse is pretty much perfect, but their fries are my least favorite of any place I can think of.
never had Cheesecake Factory and haven't been to an Applebees or Ruby Tuesdays in 20+ years.
Only thing good at TGI Fridays is that jack daniels sauce.
best thing at Olive Garden is the salad dressing

After having Texas Roadhouse and Outback a thousand times during COVID, I can tell you that both get extremely old after a while.
Applebees has exactly one decent thing: the burger with the egg on it.
I have only been to Hooters a couple of times and it's been a while, but I can't understand the fascination. I may not have been to a "flagship" franchise.
Stop by McDonalds on your way to a tittie bar and see more for less.

I would not pick any of these three mediocre to worse restaurants
I'm assuming that whomever originally made the list, doesn't eat anywhere that actually serves high quality food. This list is average to below average restaurants.
So woodApplebees has exactly one decent thing: the burger with the egg on it.

Definitely got some meat on those wings.
Cheesecake Factory...Roadhouse....Olive Garden. Solid menus with good variety and consistent quality of food.
