20 years ago, TGIF was thriving...Bennigan's wasn't. I attribute that to higher cost of a dinner at Bennigan's...even though the food was better and more choices.

Applebees, around here, are doing very well....parking lot is full most of the time.

I always liked the food at Bennigans. I haven't in years, but I'd still go to a Chilis if I needed food and that was available.

TBH, I don't know if I've ever been to an Applebees. I think once, back in the mid 90s. One opened up near our apt, and some of us went. I don't think I've ever been back, and don't remember anything about the experience, so it must not have been too bad, just not good or memorable.
