Not much mention of Outback here, so I have to say it's one of my favorite regular places to eat. For the money you pay, the bread and dinner salad are superior to several other medium priced chain restaurants. They put so much variety in their dinner salad, it's not just lettuce and carrots. It's sliced roma tomatoes, cucumbers, garlic croutons, shredded cheese, red onion, etc. I like the filet cut or the shrimp and veggie skewers (remoulaude sauce for the side). The bloomin' onion is always a good start too.

I'll second Baja Fresh, Chevy's, In & Out Burger, and Crackle Barrell.

Rubio's is good too for their fish tacos. http://www.rubios.com/

Another mention is Mimi's Cafe. I think they have very good breakfast. And a great kids menu selection. http://www.mimiscafe.com/

I also like the RainForest Cafe, more for the atmostphere than the price and food selections though.
