Every day, Americans spend about $1.7 billion at the nation’s 970,000
restaurants—close to the amount they spend each year on indigestion
remedies. Clearly, diners deserve a sure thing: a clean place that
provides tasty food and good value. To find the best bets, we surveyed
47,565 readers who ate a total of 110,517 meals at 102 table-service chain restaurants—a
step (sometimes a leap) up from fast-food joints.On one end are
family-oriented, pot-roast-and-hash-brown restaurants such as Denny’s, IHOP, and Perkins, with simple décor, sturdy tableware, and a bill of about $10 per person for breakfast or lunch.
On the other, white-tablecloth eateries such as The Capital Grille, Ruth’s, Chris Steak House, and Morton’s Steakhouse,
where guests can sample carpaccio and ahi tuna on fine china, sip wine
in clubby surroundings, and pay more than $40 per person for dinner and
drinks.
The rated restaurants serve cuisine for most palates: steaks and burgers, barbecue, seafood, Italian, Mexican, and Asian. Some chains have a niche: fondue at The Melting Pot; hibachi cooking at Benihana; Cajun fare at Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen.
