Red Lobster is a decent place to go but I'm still a little baffled why people order steak at a seafood restaurant. But I guess that's why there is usually some sort of surf-n-turf option on the menu.
Gotta go with Bonefish Grill if its a seafood chain restaurant night. Had a delicious meal there in Sarasota. Would have gone to a local place since we were on the Gulf but we used a gift card which basically made it a free meal. Can't wait for the new Bonefish to open in the Belden Village Area.

I think Carrabas is the best mid-level chain restaurant. Red Lobster is not bad, I'd rather spend a few more dollars if a Bonefish grille is available. Bahama Breeze is not bad, dislike Pappadeaux. Of course I like the Mahi at Outback. This should help.DeadliestWarrior34;1069642 wrote:One of the best steaks I've ever had was at a Carrabas.

...make no mistake Red Lobster is NOT a seafood restaurant. At least this story sounds like it might be true. The Tumbleweed story was a complete fabrication.Apple;1069759 wrote:Red Lobster is a decent place to go but I'm still a little baffled why people order steak at a seafood restaurant. .

Totally agree... whenever the wife and I go out and we want steak we go to Carrabas. The filet their is one of the best I have had anywhere.DeadliestWarrior34;1069642 wrote: One of the best steaks I've ever had was at a Carrabas.

...I took my family out some years ago to a resturant (now out of business & for good reason) called Mark Pi's and when the meal arrived we all started to eat when my cousin had a cockroach come crawling out of his rice. I called the waitress over and she saw the roach & squashed it with a towel on the table & asked if we wanted something else instead. I told her no that we were leaving and not paying for anything. She said we had to pay for our drinks and I laughed at her and said I'd call the board of health if she made it an issue. She said ok, we left but I called the board of health anyway. I have no idea if this chain is still in existance, but if they are...NEVER go to them.

Mark Pi's was a money laundering op for an Asian cocaine ring. Mark Pi himself is still in jail I believe.

I just googled what you said about mark pi's and found not one link supporting what you said. Not calling you a liar, but can you provide some evidence. I would like to read about it

The Steak or Chicken Bryan at Carrabas is one of the best chain meals around.

The tumbleweed situation is absolutely 100% true.
Matter of fact, the 50 dollar gift card came in yesterday.
I like Red Lobster. Not as great as some places but it hits the spot. I like to get the salmon crab stuff flounder.
There is a place in Celina called Bella's. It is an italian place but they have a parmasean encrusted salmon that is flippn amazing.
