Chain Italian: Olive Garden or Macaroni Grill

[tinfoil tiaras]

OKay, my mom made me go to Macaroni Grill tonight and now I have a nasty tummyache :(

So, I decided to put Macaroni Grill up against the Lounge's favorite chain Italian restaurant: Olive Garden. :evilgrin:

2. Fence-sitter here.

I like 'em both. But the local eateries back home were darn tasty.

4. Oops, voted for the wrong thing

Macaroni grill near me flunked health inspection twice in a row recently.

Applebees botched my last order badly, how hard is medium rare to accomplish? Pretty f'ing hard aparently. Sent shoe leather back to the kitchen, twice. Took my dinner home in a box after everyone else finished desert.

Strip joint down the street does 8oz steak (cooked to order) fries and texas toast for $4.

Strip joint gets my vote.

6. Macaroni Grill's lasagna

Reminds me so much of Stoffer's I wanted to go see the chef actually prepare it.

God, I hate that place almost as much as I hate Red Lobster.

7. If I had a choice of only those two

I would have to go to the Olive Garden.
