I wish BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse, Carrabba's Italian & Grill and Logan's Roadhouse would locate in all 50 states.

BJ's Restaurant... meh, Carrabba's... meh

In & Out would be a good choice. The south can keep their chains :-)

I'm not for chain restaurants but must say, Sonic is a good one, they bring your food to you on roller skates. And just like the old days, you can eat from you car, listen to oldies music while you eat.

Sonic has always been more nostalgic to me. Try to imagine going to a Sonic as a kid with your parents. We rarely ever ate fast food, so it was a real treat. I like them because you can get a burger anytime and not just after 10:30 AM.

I wish we had In and Out here in Oklahoma.

I am more of a diner person these days.

I too, would rather support the smaller, ma and pa diners than some big chain. I don't fit in with their clientele and the service seems so robotic, not personal. Just my 2c.

Skyline Chili!

Why do I care what's available in 50 states? I'm usually in only four or five of them throughout the year. Anyway, when I leave home I don't want the same old thing. I don't travel miles away to new places just to eat the same food I can eat at home.

Not all Sonics do rollerskating carhops. I think one in our entire metro does.

I've never figured out the In & Out appeal. The west can keep it.

I'm trying to think of places where I've eaten during my work travels that aren't available here, and I can't really think of any.

It's not really a restaurant, but I'd love a Pinkberry here. There's a couple in my state, but no where nearby. We do have other froyo places, but there's something about their original tart that I love! and their toppings always seem fresher. They seem to have more focus on the fresh stuff, and not so much all the candy crap.

Boston Market. If you like chicken, that's the place to go! They have great meat loaf, also. Home-style cooking: mashed potatoes, creamed spinach, niblet corn, and tons of gravy! It's a great place for a guy to pig out...but the ladies usually like it, too! Oh, and then dessert....
