Casual Dining menus
Casual dining means table service, larger plates and higher checks than a drive-thru. Chili's and Applebee's are known for burgers, appetizers and bundled deals, Olive Garden, Carrabba's and Fazoli's for Italian-American pasta, and The Cheesecake Factory and BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse for very long menus. Red Robin, Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen and the Golden Corral buffet round out the group. Prices here are estimates before tax and tip, and they vary more by location than fast food does.
