After much hoopla, Joe's Crab Shack opens locally

I think it's just a Red Lobster with a redneck feel.

I'll never understand people's desire to frequent the Olive Garden. Apparently there's a lot of people who have never eaten at a real Italian place.sanjuro said:
I ate at a Joe's Crab Shack in Anaheim and I thought it was ok. Nothing special, but not terrible.
franchises suck.
support the mom and pop restaurants.

I love the small mom and pop places, well the good ones anyways. Narlus: you have any MetroWest favorites you might share. All cusines are welcome. 
i don't really know the metrowest area at all, unfortunately. all my time's been spent either in the city, or north of it.berkshire_rider said:
North End mom and pop places?narlus said:
I've been looking for some in-house made pasta.
i never went much to the north end when i lived there, because i lived in the south end, and i think that overall the restaurants were better and cheaper. plus, it's kind of a pain to get to and to park.
that said, my few meals i had at Pomodoro were uniformly outstanding (and it's run by an Irish couple, go figure), and although i've never been, Sage is supposed to be great.
for really great french bistro cooking, get to Metropolis (off Tremont) in the south end.

I didn't realize Joe's Crab Shack as a chain restaurant until I saw "other locations" on the menu. I had never heard of them before I walked into one.
we've got three in memphis. i refuse to eat at one.
Because they're a chain, or because they suck?laura said:
