It does depend on the restaurant. Most bigger chains and longer lived smaller places have gone downhill, but there are still places you can go that are better.

The actual problem on the whole price thing "of course something $2 now and $2 before gets worse" is that it basically all comes back to wage stagnation. Most people don't have the buying power to keep up with inflation, so they cut back on things to keep them the same price because raising the price is worse for the companies margins than cutting back on things. People are more willing to put up with the product sucking slightly more than it did before than having to pay more for the same product.

Like most things having to do with wage stagnation, this isn't a sustainable solution because there is eventually going to be a point where they've cut down on the products so much that it isn't worth the asking price for people anymore anyway.
