We know there are a ton of great ones, but what are the few that are disgusting?

My votes go to Choo Choos, Just Pho, and Blind Pig Tavern.

Choos Choos is the shite.


JUst Pho is a good answer though. I'll go with the shitty Chinese buffet on the eastside.

The one in the Kroger shopping center, or Hibachi Grill?

Hibachi Grill is pretty good. I've never been to the Kroger one.

Also, can't beat Inoko Express. Less than $5 for a teryaki lunch. Probably the best deal in town.

True that. Was my go to for a hangover meal for a while. They even throw in soup and a salad for lunch.


I was talking about Hibachi Grill. I went like 2 years ago and it was fricking terrible. I think they got new management but I havent been back.

Blind Pig Tavern


This place hasn't always been bad. The one on Baldwin had some good BBQ burgers. The place went to shite when they opened one up on the Westside. Not to mention, the apartments behind the Pig were sketchy.

Inoko....Great

Inoko Express....Meh

Hibachi Grill....was fine the only two times I went there, but haven't been in over a year

Blind Pig....Never cared much for it and haven't been in a couple of years. At one time, it was good, but there are just too many options to choose from now.

Harry Bissett's......R.I.P. Miss that place. I rank it the "Best Restaurant to Have Been Closed". Too bad the arse clown owner decided not to pay his taxes.

Golden Dragon's buffet is horrible. Absolutely disgusting. Their take-out is decent, though, but still not as good as Chef Ming/Peking.
