Fixed that for ya.


My grandparents were affluent and their favorite restaurant was Jimmy's of Savin Rock. It was basically a seafood and hotdog shack at the edge of the Savin Rock amusement park (which no longer exists). The restaurant is now an enclosed restaurant with full waiter service and the prices have definitely gone up, but it's not a white tablecloth and waiters with white gloves kind of place. They still do a thriving take-out business.
