Probably one of the best restaurants in Pooler and better than the Dickey's locations that I've tried in Texas. The people are friendly, the barbecue is good, and the drinks are easily accessible. Free ice cream and pickles? Nobody has that ...
If you like Lexington Style barbecue drowned in a vinegar-based sauce, then you might like Don's. Not the worst in the world, but certainly not the best. That said, I think that Don's need a visit from Gordon Ramsay and his makeover team ...

James H. had it right. This Bennigan's was a far cry from the eatery that was once so good during its 1970s heyday. I tried it once, with similar results. The public has voted: this location is currently closed down ...
I REALLY love the waffles at this chain breakfast joint, but somebody, I say somebody, has GOT to teach the cook here how to make bacon. For some reason, the strips of pork fat that are served up here are always cooked unevenly, with some parts almost raw. C'mon folks, this should be slam dunk for you. I can fry up better bacon on my car's manifold. Get your bacon act together!

I visited this downtown Savannah eatery with some of my business associates and have to tell you that my first visit will be my last visit ...
On a slow Wednesday night, the service was horrible. Ok, let's say horrific. The food was tasteless, too. Blackened scallops without any flavor? How do you do that?
As one earlier reviewer commented, the beer was lousy (confirmed by one of the seasoned beer drinkers in our party). I had a gin and tonic, with similar results: The tonic was pure seltzer, the lime a flaccid afterthought. Yuck.
Worst of all, I added a nominal tip onto the bloated bill. A stupid gesture on my part, as I found out later that my tab already included a 15% gratuity. So much for sitting in a large group and asking for a separate check.
Add this establishment to the ever-expanding list of low country eateries that just don't make the grade ...

I thank my creator that there is now a grocery store which gives me the ability to never set foot in Walmart again. Plus, the Artichoke Jalapeno dip they make in the deli department is addictive. Higher prices? I will gladly pay a little bit more for cleanliness and a great atmosphere. Plus, the selection of products is excellent and people are genuinely nice.

I like.
It's small, easy to access, quick to get around in, fast to get to your gate, with a miniscule line at security. There is no TSA groping here and decent eateries while you wait.
Need a diversion? There's a game arcade, fast food burgers, hot dogs, hair salon, gift shop, sandal shop, smoking lounge, and more.
If only every airport were like this, I might enjoy the cruel and barbaric art of airline travel.

I would like to give this eatery ZERO stars if I could, since it was probably the worst outback experience that I have ever had.
I've eaten at numerous Outback locations in Texas, Kansas, and Utah, with mixed results. But this particular location made me want to impale myself with a didgeridoo ...
Unlike those handy boomerangs used down under, my waiter appeared quickly, but did NOT return. His presence was scarce, like a rare species. When he appeared, the service rendered was excruciatingly slow.
Of course, my New York strip steak was completely overcooked, and cold as a Platypus bill. Not a lot of care was put into the baked potato either. It looked like a wombat threw it together from scraps in its den ...
Of course, I was as mad as a Tasmanian Devil, until the manager comped the entire meal for me.
Good onya mate! Now THAT's some fairly-priced restaurant chain tucker.

Maybe it was an off day, or maybe it's just me ...
I was asked at least FIVE times what kind of pita pocket I wanted, from at least THREE different people on the line. Kind of annoying, since it wasn't a complicated order.
Then--to add insult to injury--the last girl who questioned me tried to school me on how to make orders in the future. "Duh ... Hello, I am mentally challenged, may I order a Chicken Souvlaki-With Tzatziki Sauce?"
It was like some sort of crazy Seinfeld script ...
The pita pocket? It was OK, an interesting concept, but nothing over the top in a culinary sense.
