Usually, I always order something I like, or somethign I know I'm going to like. Many times, I try something new, and it ends up with, "Meh, I should have gotten the usual." Feels like money wasted.

I tend to usually always order a ribeye if it's on the menu, but occasionally will get the fish option.

It depends what type of restaurant it is. At an Italian place I usually feel comfortable ordering anything. If it's seafood, I usually stick to what I like.

I usually get the same things I like. Though that depends on the definition of whether you get the same things from the same restaurants, or if it suits your tastes that are otherwise universal.

I usually order something I know I'll like, unless someone else is paying.

I always order what I like. More often than not it is chicken fingers, steak or a hamburger. At Italian restaurants I usually get four cheese ravioli and ordering pizza I will always go with just cheese on it.

Well, I usually stick to something I like, or a variant of it. If I like chicken, I will get one of the chicken options, not something totally different.

I stay with what I like and check out what the other people in my table ordered. Usually if it looks attractive, i'll order that next time.

I'm a creature of habit. I'm the kind of guy who could go to a restaurant, and I could order "the usual," and they would know exactly what that meant.

I try new things every once and a while....although when i was young I once got chicken and fries from a renowned italian restaurant...didn't even have it on the menu. Odd part is that it had the best chicken and fries I ever had...

In terms of what it contains I'll order anything as long as it has meat and potatoes in one form or another :P So in THAT sense, same thing every time. But in a more traditional sense I eat the same thing mostly, though I don't fear trying new things.

I order the whole menu. Cause im rich and, I can do that. If I dont like it I burn it for the homless to smell. If they cant eat good food they can at least smell it.

I mean I stick to what I like.

Depends on the restaurant - there are a few where I've sampled the vast majority of the menu and stick to one thing because I know I like it the most. Other places I'll gradually work my way through everything, unless I happen to go on a night where they have a special.

I always go with what I am comfortable with because if I try something new and it's not as I expected then I feel as if it is a waste of money.

I usually go with what I like. If I'm not feeling 'excited' about the meal, I might get something else if it looks appealing.

I am a very picky person and never try anything new. If I go to a restaurant it is either a burger or chicken for me.

I have a hard time making decisions when it comes to food so I let someone else like a brother, sister, parent, or a friend make my decision.

Sometimes, I'll get something new, but I typically order the same thing over and over. Take Starbucks for example. I go to the same one every time and they know me so well that when I go in, I don't even have to order.

Yupp. Bread that is baked and has great crust. I really love it. Just not the cheese. I have been embarrassed of it my whole life. I gave up caring awhile ago.

No need to be embarrassed, I actually know someone who does the same thing. I've just never understand the mindset behind it.

I stick with the usual. If I do try something new I'll combine it with a usual order just in case the new thing turns out crappy. At least I'll have something enjoyable to eat.

Depends on how I feel on the day. Usually I crave the norm, but now and then I am adventurous - and, surprisingly, have not often regretted being so.

I tend to get steak, seafood /chicken pastas, or spaghetti whenever and wherever I go out to eat, maybe fried shrimp, haddock, and fries if they offer that.
