Eats is not a "sit down" restaurant.

I've sat down and eaten at Eats lol. Does it disqualify because it's not a nice or fancy place?

My least favorite is Landmark diner. Just not at all impressed with their food.

I hope that this is not offensive to anyone but I've never considered a buffet to be a sit-down restaurant (although you do sit to eat). Was the OP talking about buffets?? If so, I'll say that my least favorite has to be any buffet. I'm grossed out just thinking of the germs on the spoons being handled by all the different people and kids. Some of which don't even wash their hands well (or at all - I've seen it) when they leave the bathroom. Buffets = NO.

I got dragged inside of a Shoney's a few years ago b/c some family members wanted to go there and I sat in utter shock at how people were actually EATING the food that was splashed all over the buffet area, kids were running up and grabbing food, everyone was just handling the serving utensils as they pleased. The germs in that place has to be off the richter scale. Just saying.

Shoney's for personal reasons but I honestly can not stand that place. One time I was travelling to Nashville with about 30 family members for a graduation. We stopped close to the NC/TN boarder and they ALL ate at Shoney's but me?? I walked across the street to Subway and ate my subway in Shoney's lol......hate that place as well.

Yeah, you sit down at McDonald's, too. "Sit down restaurant" usually means a waiter comes to your table and serves you.

I agree with that. I've been there several times and it couldn't be more convenient, but I have no desire to go back.

There are places that have good food where you have to walk through a line to order, then a server brings your food. Fast food not included. Would you say the same about Chow Baby or Yeah! Burger?

When I think sit down I think non-fast food. Then it becomes casual vs. more formal, chain vs. non chain.

I've never been to Chow Baby or Yeah Burger, so I don't know.
