I really like P.F. Changs, but I do not consider it an expensive restaurant. Hyde park is very expensive, and I have yet to go there; but will probably try it out sometime soon. ---

Hyde Park and Black & Blue just strike me as the type of places 20 year olds who work at the mall take their GF trying to impress her. ---

PF Changs is take-out quality and price, but the restaurant has a bit nicer atmosphere. Never been to hyde park. Black and Blue’s OK. Nothing disappointing, nothing spectacular. ---

For the food aspect I just had a kick ass meal at the Friar’s Table, but it’s definitely more old-school than newer. ---

PF Changs sucked IMO Black & Blue was good I still havent tried Hyde Park or EB Greens, ive heard good things about EB Greens. A lot of small places on Elmwood/Delaware that are really good. I dont feel like naming them tho. I still think Kyoto/Fuji Grill are two of my favorite places to go. The food is good and can get costly, but its also entertaining. Also if you want to cross the border theres The Keg in the Embassy Falls View Hotel that is pretty good and has a great view of the falls. ---

Black and Blue is terrible. Also not an “expensive” restaurant in any way really. What kind of food are you looking for? La Rue (franklin) is probably one of the “fancier” restaurants around. But the Chop House, Fiamma’s, etc are staples around here. Kennedy’s cove is overpriced but easily rivals the quality of Fiamma’s. For cheaper but still quality I recommend (for italian)Caffe Espresso or My Tomato Pie. For cheaper quality (for mexican) La Tolteca. There’s a LOT of good restaurants around here, so what kind of food are you looking for? For a good atmosphere, solid food and great prices, I honestly recommend Ruby Tuesdays. That place straight up has their shit together. Best run/best quality/best atmosphere of any chain restaurant in the world IMO, and I’ve got some pretty decent restaurant credentials.
