Default 10 Best Fast Food Restaurants in/around TV

We enjoy IHOP's breakfast, especially the Senior Sampler. We also like glazed donuts from Dunkin Donuts. We like them better in TV. Is that because the turnover is big? Sorry to hear about Johnny Rocket closing as I liked their milkshakes. Are there any Sonic fast foods around because their shakes are good though not their hot dogs. Subway is always good in Colony Plaza.

Any word what will replace Johnny Rockets? I like Panera's myself if that qualifies for fast food chain. But I can't wait to try Brooklyn Bagels.
5 weeks till we get to TV

Golden Corral has an excellent Sunday Brunch - omlettes made to order. Subway is always good. I would love to see a White Castle in TV.

Never ate at Johnny Rockets because of all the bad reviews on TOTV. When did it close? I haven't been to TV since July and it was open then.

Johnny Rockets had the best location in LSL and should have been a major attraction and a BIG money maker. However, the management of Johnny Rockets in LSL did the best job they could of screwing up a good thing.

Nearly every time we went in there the place was nearly empty and you still had to wait 45 minutes for a burger.

Went in there last October while waiting to meet our realtor. Three customers, six wait staff and they were QUIETLY arguing over who was going to wait on us! We QUIETLY walked out the door! We were surprised to see them still there on our vist in July!
