don pablos
canada
I love the canadian chains so much more (dont ask why(
I love kelseys, montana's, earls, keg, jack astor, canyon creek.
Maggiano's is one of Brinker's better Italian spots.. similar food to mac grill but definitely better!
I stopped eating at Don Pablos when I noticed servers handling food with bare hands that had also picked up things off the floor or scratched body parts... lost my appetite.
I've been to a Keg and a Jack Astor in Dallas. I wasn't very impressed with Keg, especially in comparison to a place like Lawry's or Del Friscos. Jack Astor was a pleasant experience, I'd go again.
As far as Canadian chains, Marchee gets my vote, along with Whistling Oyster. Both are in Toronto and are very much worth a visit. My husband is tired of hearing me talk about both, so we're going this summer just so that he can see what the fuss is all about!
