Fazoli's

More than 200 Fazoli's restaurants may be found in more than 25 states. Even if you're dying for Italian cuisine and there's a location near you, simply say no. This chain isn't deserving of your patronage.

First and foremost, Fazoli's use deception to get you to believe that their cuisine is authentically authentic, which is just not the case. While restaurants aren't to fault for making their cuisine seem better than it is, Fazoli's takes it a step further by employing bogus Italian terms and phrases to deceive you. That's taking things too far.

Second, their meal isn't that tasty. It'd be one thing if they utilized deceptive marketing to lure you in and then wowed you with wonderful cuisine. However, once you get at Fazoli's, you'll find you've been duped. Their Italian cuisine is on par with what you'd get in a school cafeteria. Keep your distance.
