New fast food discussion/review thread

OK OOT, it's been a while since we had a devoted fast food thread around here and I think it's time we had a new one.

Chili's are non-existent here. Google says there used to be some, never been to one.

Thought they were Mexican though?

Chilis confirmed very much not Mexican. They do have decent fajitas tho.


god i looooved chilis fajitas back in the day.
covid blasted all their locations in the area.

They're really impressed by a cheapskate with a discount gift card?

That's when you explain you're taking the savings on the meals and you're going to let it accumulate to apply it to a 6 month anniversary present. EZ game. Now you've got yourself a steady girlfriend!

At Chili's you can get an app, drink and burger/chicken sandwich w/fries for $11 with no coupon.

this post is giving off some serious Applebee's Valuetown envy vibes

pretty excited for the applebees thing, there is one right next to where i live that ive been to precisely 0 times in 8 years


I love red Robin's bacon fondue burger

But the burgers seem smaller to me than they used to be

Thankful for the unlimited fries (which are great dipped in the bacon fondue).


I had a RR teriyaki burg last month. It was delicious but definitely seemed smaller. As a kid I remember going to the mall RR and the burg plus fries filled the plate.

Server indicated they were gonna get rid of those dumb table side tablets

I was at Red Robin last night. I noticed that they brought back the Burnin Love Burger! Including the grilled jalapeno on top. It was fantastic, just like I remembered.

I did think the Scorpion burger was a decent substitute.


Ugh. Right when the Applebee's passes went on sale the site crashed. At least for me it did. After a couple minutes the page finally loaded but the passes were sold out. Lame.


Ya Applebees scammed us


**** me. i totally forgot about them.

Yeah, I figured they would have like 12 of them for sale.


Today is national hot sauce day! Del Taco is giving away 100 packets of hot sauce with any purchase (in app).

Also at Jersey Mike's, they brought back the free sandwich deal! Purchase any sub in the app from now to end of February and get 72 points added to your account. 72 points is good for any 9 inch sandwich. Offer is once per account.


The email says buy a 100 packet tin for $17.99 and get 100 packets free. They're doing 60 cent tacos until 3/6.

I don't know if anyone else that posts here lives in Vegas but Rick's has a thing now where if the Golden Knights score in the first period you get free any size fries the next day.

You don't even have to be a local? I'd finally have a reason to pay attention to hockey.

OMG, you're right. Huge reading fail on my part.

The rest of town must be totally deserted on Friday and Saturday nights.


Dominos has $6.99 two topping larges this week when you carry out. One of your finer chain pizza values.

What place in the US besides like NYC/SF or the middle of nowhere that doesn't have both of these readily available?


South Orange county CA, no Applebee's to be found.

I tried the Carl's Jr Sourdough burger for lunch. Pretty tasty, it reminded me of the old McDonald's signature burger with BBQ sauce and bacon.

Mine.
We have an Applebee's but I think the Chili's 15 miles away recently closed. Now the nearest one may be 70 or more miles away. There is a rumor that we may be getting one 10 or so miles away though.

The last time I went to a Chili's was > 30 years ago. I think I have been to the local Applebee's twice since it opened 15-20 years ago. They always seem busy so they probably haven't missed me very much.

Could be. Although there's also a Texas Roadhouse.

I'm in the middle of nowhere.

I don't much go to either, either. I'm a drive-through guy. The only times I go is when an out-of-town buddy stops by and we get lunch.
