Since most of us travel a bit or in my case try to have time to travel. What are some of the better restaurants in your area for dining out. I will be in the Astoria/Seaside OR. area in a couple of weeks and El Paso, TX and Alexradria VA next year. So it never hurts to know a little useful info for dining. Also since I ask to many controversial questions I thought I would lighten it up a little. So help a brother or sister out!
In the Spokane/Coeur d'Alene area it has to be Wolf lodge in Coeur d' Alene, best steak around.

Almost any restaurant in New Orleans would be outstanding - sampled more than a few when the scuba diving industry used to have conventions there every three years before Katrina. Bread pudding for or with breakfast, lunch and dinner plus a midnight snack after barhopping the French Quarter.

Hamburgers, Philly cheesesteaks, spicy breaded chicken, Italian food and German food are my favorites MSgt (Join to see). I live in Sterling VA which is about 40 miles west of Alexandria, VA.
My rule of thumb is checking out the parking lot around meal time. Empty restaurants are not a good sign, usually.
Popeye's Chicken is my favorite chicken restaurant.
Five guys hamburgers is my favorite hamburger place but Fuddruckers is also good and has military and veteran discount. Of the fast food chains, I prefer Wendy's which has 15% discount for military, veterans and EMS.
For Italian I like in alphabetical order Bertucci's, Carrabba's, and Romano's Macaroni Grill
Good German food is hard to find. I prefer Bavarian food. My favorite is Salzburg Austria At Kaiser's - The Austrian Gasthaus - Ashburn, VA,
I recommend at least looking at Yelp to see what locals have to say about restaurants.
Thanks for tagging me CPT L S

The parking lot rule is still the best determinant.
