We eat out often. Restaurants are good. If you want GREAT cuisine, look in Miami.
There are a few chains, but most restaurants are owned/operated by local restaurant groups (one group might operate 5 to 10 restaurants.
You also will find two different visits to the same place will offer two very different experiences (i.e. great one time and terrible the next).
There are some that are consistently good.
Most of the country clubs are okay. I’ve had many good experiences at Palmer, I would put that at the top of my list (I don't eat out in the northern end, so didn't put Lopez, etc on my list).
