My mother got some IHOP coupons so I took her there last week. OH MY GOD!!!! The prices! She got the senior French toast, close to $6 for 2 pieces of white bread & 2 strips of bacon. WTF? I couldn't find anything on the menu for a decent price so I finally settled on the stack of 5 classic pancakes. Again, almost $6 for 5 average sized pancakes. I can go to the store & buy a box of pancake mix for like $1.65 & just add some water & get 5 times as many. But the place is always packed. I don't get it. Majority of the menu was $7.99 or higher. I was tempted to order off the kids menu. lol
So which restaurant do you think is the biggest rip off? The worst prices, crappy food & overall worst value? IHOP easily gets my vote. Applebee's is a close second. Last edited by Steelgrave; 08-26-2010 at 05:44 AM.. |

McDonalds. In my town, theyare absolutely horrible. They never change the oil and like to give out dessicated nuggets/filets that have been sitting in a bin for God knowns how long.

Unless it's the endless pasta bowl, Olive Garden. Their food is pretty good, but not for the price. I make them regret offering the endless pasta bowl.
I'd say second place belongs to Ruby Tuesdays. I use to love that place, then they raised their prices, and tried to be a more "fine dining" experience. News flash, chances are, if you're a chain restaurant, you'll never be fine dining. I'm looking at you too Olive Garden and Red Lobster. |

Boston Market for me. I love tue food & gravy, but by the time you get an entre for you and your gf/wife plus two drinks, you might as well have gone to a casual sit down place in terms of price

Outback. Same crap I'd get at any one of a hundred or so tavern food places, but with a 25%-40% markup.

As far as value for the money I gotta go with Quiznos and to a lesser extent Subway. I just feel for what I am getting I shouldn't be charged so much. My total ends up being like $10-$12 and I'm just getting a sandwich, chips and a drink

Red Lobster takes it for me. I'm aware that seafood is all seasonal, especially things like Crab, but cmon.
