You must not be aware of how long Red Lobster and TGI Fridays exist(ed) in the New Orleans area .. not to mention Houston’s which was inexplicably popular in NOLA despite being a national chain .
The Houstons on Vets was very, very good.....The burgers were top notch along with the mango steak salad and pretty much anything I ever got .....my sister continued to go there until they closed....maybe a chain, but the food was way better than the average chain IMO......
