We have a nice strip of "chains" by our office that are favorites with our team:
Chammps Americana - Not bad although it can be a huge pick-up scene during happy hour and before/after football games at Texas Stadium. I rather like a few of their entrees, particularly the specials which vary from location to location.
Bahama Breeze - The only think I like here are the cocktails and shots - they have a huge inventive menu (much like the bars at Fridays used to have back in the day). The food otherwise always seems greasy and just a bit "off" from what it should be. This is a favorite with my younger staffers... they like the steel band playing on Friday evenings - again, another big pick up scene by our office.
The Keg - Canadian steakhouse chain. Love this place... we go in there for lunch or after work snacks a lot. Good and reasonable (for our area) wine/beer list and interesting munchies that don't break the bank. Not the place I would go for a good steak (on par with Steak and Ale) but certainly great for a salad and stuffed mushrooms.
