I'm fairly certain OP was going for the latter. I suspect it's possible someone might not recognize Chili's is a chain restaurant with over 1400 locations. For the record, the most expensive item on the Quarry location's menu is $16.99.

gave Friendly Spot Ice House a go last night and give the food a B overall and the atmosphere an A+. 4 of ordered everything on the menu and enjoyed several beers as we enjoyed a wonderful evening.

The ceviche was the star amongst the food.

MJ China Bistro on Huebner near Floyd Curl:

1. Food was pretty good and tasty. However, menu is small compard to other Chinese restaurants.
2. Physical facility is pretty nice.
3. Kitchen is a touch slow but not awful.
4. Hostess - attitude, young thing - thinks she's something and rather talk to other staff before paying attention to seat you. Sorry, - being a hostess in a local restaurant doesn't give you status on the dominance hierarchy.

Overall, we would try it again.

Dinner - entrees were lowest about $9 but quite a few in the > $15 range. That's pricey for a standard Chinese restaurant.

Compared to Mencius - most entrees are higher in price for seemingly similar dishes.

We enjoyed Freetails on Sat. Great NY Style pizza, Microbrewery and live music on the patio with Ruben V.

Legal Seafood in Boston - wish they would come here.

Staff professionalism was also great as compared to some I've recently dealt with here.

Ate at The Longhorn in Leon Springs on the way back from an excursion on Sunday.

We have eaten at so many burger places on a quest to find a tastier burger than the ones we grill at home or the ones at The Longhorn. There simply is no better place to get a hamburger, IMO. They are consistent and delicious. Every time we eat there, no matter how busy or slow they are, we get the same product. Excellent.

I'd have to agree with Longhorn Cafe(not Longhorn Steakhouse, I'm presuming) for best burgers. or Bobby J's.
