I've never eaten at Bubba Gump's for three reasons. Since only one of them could go away it is likely that I never will:
1. I abhor the movie.
2. Eating at a restaurant based on the ramblings of a mildly retarded fictional Vietnam casualty just seems odd.
3. There is a Bubba Gump's on Cannery Row in Monterey and the fact that there is always a line out to the sidewalk for chain restaurant seafood when there are 40 quality independent and likely much better restaurants within 300 feet is a sign of all that is wrong with middle class America.
But on the other hand, it can't possibly be a worse dining experience than Rainforest Cafe or Eat at Joe's Crab Shack which are frequently mentioned options whenever some largish group is looking for dinner in the resort area.
