Yeah I was a server at Macaroni Grill for two years, Olive Garden for two months

Turns out, I was really good at carrying food on my arms (aka Mac Shack) but really bad having to carry it on trays (aka OG). It hurt and was way awkward. So it certainly wasn't long, but long enough to see how the place is run these days.

Macaroni Grill had way better food, not to mention way better tips.

Actually, they are never frozen.

It's changed since then. They are shipped to each restaurant frozen and thawed

Yeah, they blew it then.

lawboy

Ha! Yeah, they definitely don't make fresh pasta either.

Nope. CB loves In-N-Out/Five Guys/Crown Burger. It's not biased against chains.

what are your feelings about Applebee's?

Mayor of Cougartown

1/16/14 2:40pm

never heard of it. Is that a knock-off of Crapplebees neighborhood grill?

JackStack

Haha I guess you caught me in my own hypocrisy.

IndependentGeorge

Blech Applebee's is the worst.
