Wherever you are, you can find a brand name you depend on. No risk, same prices and consistent menu and quality.

Here are mine go-to's when I am not in the mood for a surprise:

1. Denny's (24 hrs of all-American breakfast, lunch and dinner)

2. Noodles & Co (pasta and wine, fast)

3. Ruth's Chris - DAMN good meat

4. Macaroni Grill/Maggiano's - (same owners, slightly different grade of cuisine, but always a great meal)

IHOP for the stuffed french toast

Applebee's for decent food at reasonable prices

HuHot Mongolian Grill- you pick the stuff you want and they make up your own asian concotion right in front of you.  Lots of meats, veggies, sauces, and oils to choose from

Hardee's/Carl's Jr. for a great burger

Much like Demolition Man, only one fast food burger joint has emerged unscathed from my personal trial-by-fire: Hardee's (or Carl's Jr.). As a kid, Hardee's was the last place I ever wanted to eat, but that's because it was awful until this decade.

Zaxby's has phenomenal fried chicken sandwiches, but I must pace myself on their Zaxby's Clubs if I want to make it to 30.

Ruby Tuesday's is a good choice if you like let's-pile-on-ham-and-dressing-until-it-no-longer-resembles-health-food salad bars, which I most certainly do.

OMG you guys have SO many chain restaurants. I don´t know ANY of those mentioned!!

Anywho, I only have one fave restaurant called "Sushi +"

Burger King if I´m hungover which I wont be any time soon....

Ditte 

For some reason, i really want to go to the States just to try Taco Bell.

Other than that, i never really eat at any. Where i live they are all independent restaurants, cafes and pubs.

I love Denny's too. Eric and I met working at one. :)

Have always like Hardees, especially their chicken sandwiches.

Olive Garden

KFC

There's a chain of resteraunts out here in Wisconsin called George Webb's.  Open 24 hours, and serves breakfast anytime.  They are known mainly for their reasonably-priced food, as well as their greasy-fried-goodness!  They have the best hash browns I've ever had in my life!!!  No one else even comes close!!!

Other Favs: Rocky Rococo's, Taco Bell and Wendy's.

Ben:  "We've laid in a gala reception for your fair-haired boys tonight.  All of Twin Peaks' best and brightest."

Jerry: "We're holding it in a phone booth?"

Re: rocksandbottles, awwwww!

Rocksandbottles - always cool to run into another Wisconsinite on here!  Where are you at?  George Webb's are all over the Milwaukee/Waukesha/Madison areas.  I'm also quite sure there are some up north as well, but unfortunatly I cant be specific.

They have something called The Webb's Benedict.  A lot like eggs benedict, with 2 english muffins covered in eggs, hashbrowns, bacon and hollinday sauce-mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!

We really like Rocky Rococo's as well.  Sweet Meal Deal for about $22, large pizza, sticks and a pitcher of soda *sometimes with a bag of M&M's*--leftovers a plenty! :)

Lynchman -- Near La Crosse, but have family near Superior.

Suave -- Rocky's is a deep dish style pizza place.  IMO they have some of the best italian sausage out there! :)

2 things that I am craving

Popeye's Chicken- none where I live though:(

Maid Rite- Don't know if this is just a midwest thing or what.  The one where I used to live had the most AMAZING peanut butter pie.

 Couldnt have said it better myself, about their italian sausage.  Just thinking about it, is making my mouth water.....

I'm usually more of a thin crust man, myself, but something about Rocky's, keeps me coming back!  mmmmm

I love Chipotle, Taco Bell, Jimmy John's and Wendy's. 

I ate Chipotle twice this week cuz I love it so much and didn't feel like cooking. I don't eat fast food very often but when I do, I tend to go towards Chipotle and Jimmy John's.
