Don't you hate in when you go to a restaurant for a work-related lunch and you know it's going to suck and it does suck?
Why do we let people who obviously don't read at least tripadvisor or yelp pick the place we're going to?
Where did you go?
I typically pick where I'm eating for work events, tonight at Del Friscos! We do tend to go to a really shitty thai place a bit too often, but free food is free food!

Sample conversation:
Person A: Yes, I've been here about 10 times.
Person B: Do you know if they do a good maragarita, good margartas are hard to find.
Person A: Oh, I don't know, but they have good beer (they had Dos Equus, Nefro Modela, Corona, Heineken, Miller Lite, all in bottles)
Person B: Oh yes, but it's winter, I can't drink beer in the winter, only in the summer.
Person C noted that a sign of if a restaurant is good is if the beef they use is good, and he said indeed his was. So there was that.
I think this Tripadvisor reviewer nailed it:
I would recommend Taco Bell over this dump. It is a nice location a few blocks east of Union station away from the touristy areas. As for food, go to the French restaurant or German one next to this place. Food is bland and cheaply made. Shrimp served is the extra small, tiny. salad shrimp. The kind you get for a dollar. Flavorless. The chicken is packaged pre-cut with filler. rubbery and disgusting. Can't even get a free refill on a $2 soda that was almost all ice. STAY AWAY
