Best SeaFood in San Antonio. Book it.
That's funny because that is the reason I go to Pei Wei; I only ever have tofu and vegetables there
Pei Wei food is nasty compared to PF Chang's. It's all vegetables and very little meat. I know it's the same ownership or whatever, but there's no comparison.

Your experience has been the same as mine. I eat pretty much only chicken when I go out to eat so I can tell the difference in quality.
Grey Moss Inn was a let-down when I went there- but maybe because it had been so hyped.
You obviously do not know the difference between choice, usda prime, kobe, or even wagyu beef. So no, a steak is not a steak.
i happened to live near mopac and 71 at the time. i came to my senses and live on the north side of town now.
If you can't tell the difference between a Denny's steak and a Ruth's Chris, you should be hit in the head with a tackhammer because you are a moron.
I like Italian food, Paesanoes and Olive Garden are amateur hour, used to love to go to Nonas but the food quality dropped off there near the end...Zios, Carinos, Little Italy, Macaroni Grill....none of these places know how to make really good Italian food - they are there for what I call 'the fast food Italian eaters'....and don't even get me started on overpriced Italian....for instance, Dolores on the River.....you'll drop a bill there easy and the food still isn't as good as a place like Lorenzo's on Fred, where they have decently priced bottles of wine...
No doubt. Only morons and total idiots would pay for anything less than a steak from Morton's or Ruth's Chris.
You obviously do!!

Well ANYTIME you're talking about a chain, you're going to have alot of people rolling their eyes. But it's hard to know what people are talking about when they reference "really good Italian food". Unless you, you're Mom or Grandmother were from the old country and that's all you grew up on, people normally refer to restaurant food in this part of the country. So what we have to do is gauge how we enjoy it. It's one of the beauties of having an opinion. I myself have eaten Northern and Southern Italian food from VERY fine restaurants from Venice to Naples and was shocked at the difference. But I digress...with that said, there are 2 Italian restaurants that remind me of Italy and have always given me a fantastic experience. Lorenzo's and definitely La Foccacia...both awesome.
WAIT...how in the did I get off the topic??
Okay, that was a moronic kind of statement but I don't always get my point across clearly as I'd like. My Joe the ST poster palette, I must admit is not as polished as some, and I just like simple food that serves my appe e but don't get me wrong, I do appreciate a great meal from time to time and I am willing to pay for it but the "experience" of the meal will remain in my memory much longer than the taste.
That is why I was asking for OPINIONS.4 pages later.............. see what I mean about this being too subjective
J. Alexanders in the Quarry is way overpriced for the food and service you get there
Yah, but you know what's funny? I loved the Caesar salad there...best I ever had.
I paid 4 bucks for a burrito at Taco Bueno and it so wasn't worth it.
Shouldn't keep betting your money on the Maverick's. Maybe you'd be able to afford to go to a decent place every once in a while.
Myron's in New Braunfels is truly wonderful. The high-pressure oven is more than hype.
MYRON'S STEAKS
Myron's Steak House proudly serves Midwestern corn fed USDA Prime Beef which is the top 2% of the nation's total beef production. Each short loin is hand picked and wet aged, a process that naturally tenderizes the beef and enhances its characteristic flavor. From the feedlot to a state of the art oven, our steaks represent beef the way it should be. Welcome to Myron's, enjoy!

Drove by The Rim the other day and I noticed that we now have a Maggianos (Little Italy) in there. Has anyone ever been to one? I remember passing by one about two years ago when we were in Denver and I know that Houston and Dallas and other major towns all have one. Are they any good and what's the price range? Better than Olive Garden, Zios........?
cornfed....
better than cornholed
I love Dolores del Rio. Mostly because of the ambiance but the food is good, too. Their wine selection is no good, though. I agree with you on Lorenzo's. I love living right down the street from there. Two other Italian restaurants in the vacinity that I like are Milano's and Aldo's. Yum.
We (4) ate at the Rainforset in Grapevine Texas yesterday. Food was no better than any fast food place but we spent over a 100 bucks. With that said they had some yahoo running around making animal ballons with a big ass "work for tips" button on her shirt. You would think they would give a 1 cent ballon to a kid that parents just drop more than a 100 bones on 20 dollar lunch.
all quality restaurants imo
paesanos has recently upped their prices significantly. a veal marsala will run you almost 30 bucks these days. not worth it, but the shrimp paesano kills it everytime.
and all about the grilled shrimp and broiled lemon pepper fish at sea island (the one by north star only)
$19 steak and fries is hard to beat, i usually go for the grilled pork tenderloin though with the bang bang sauce and smashed potatoes - too good
the veal napolitana here (veal, marinara, prosciutto, mozzarella...)
great burgers, but i wish they had heinz ketchup instead of crappy hunts
