What are the most over rated restaurants in Texas?

My picks are (all in Ft. Worth):

Hamburger Joint - Kincaids

Mexican - Joe T's

Seafood - Red Lobster

BBQ - Angelo's or The Railhead

Steaks - Outback

Asian - Pei Wei

Italian - Olive Garden

+1,000,000 on Joe T's. It was the worst "mexican" food I've eaten.

Mi Tierra in San Antone. bakery is good, food is awful.
McCormick & Shmicks in Houston. Not bad really, but you are paying for the atmosphere, food is okay.
Any of Tillman Fertitta's restaurants.


The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.

+1 on Mi Tierra, was excited to go there and was completely underwhelmed.

I assume it is still open, but after all the hype, I was very disappointed in the Ponder, TX steakhouse. I think it was called the Ranchman. Also have to put in a vote for Cracker Barrel.

Outback, Olive Garden, just about all fast food chains see any connection?

I like mom and pop type eating places! I support the local people 9 out of 10 times.

Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.

No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

I don't think you guys can count "Chain Restaurants" like Outback and Olive Garden as "over-rated."

They're Chain Restaurants...they shouldn't be rated very well to begin with hehehe.

I like SaltGrass Steakhouse. What does that say? Agree with holeinmyhook; Pappadeaux and Pappa's restuarnts are off the chain. Kincaid's is definitley over-rated as is Bracken Store in SA.

And I thought the Bracken Store Cafe wasn't "rated" at all. I'll give the burger 4 stars.
