I grew up going to On The Border and Olive Garden, and thought they were good.

Chiliβs and Golden Corral.
Five guys used to be amazing, but really felt like it fell off a cliff in my area. I'm also just eating out less. It's so damn expensive and the food quality in general seems to be way down compared to the mid 00s to mid 10s. Maybe my tastes have changed, but I swear to God if we had a time machine, the food in like, 2011 would taste way better at many restaurants.
Panera Bread and Burger King. I feel like both have become pretty horrible.
Chain restaurants have been garbage since COVID. (TBF they weren't exactly stellar before.)
You can tell that many servers and cooks moved onto other careers during the pandemic. It seems like servers now are way too inexperienced with little help.
Subway in the 90s was kinda awesome. It was fast and wasn't a burger place and it had the old brown and yellow subway wallpaper everywhere.
Then they kept expanding locations and the meat and cheese slicers disappeared.
Then they ran $5 footlong.
Then they kept running $5 footlong.
And kept running it. And the quality kept dropping and dropping so they could keep the price peg.
Now, it's disgusting and costs way too much.
You couldn't pay me to eat subway, now.
I feel like if you don't like the sandwich you got at subway isn't that kinda your fault since you're the one who built it?
No idea man. I've refused to eat there for about 15 years.
The bread smells like plasticsizers, the meat reaks of nitrates, the lettuce smells like chlorine...it's like bad prison food--is that my fault?
