I hope whoever takes it over puts some soundproofing in.

Not a fan of the current Guy Fieri's but enjoyed prior Honest Johns.

However, my observation is that the building does not have street appeal. The place could be active but you could seldom tell. The entrance is on the side, The Patio is seldom used. You can walk by and not even know it was a restaurant.

They are opening today. From what I have heard they are not actually closing.

I am of the opinion that a well run, clean, consistently good service, consistently high quality foods will always win the day.
And even if it is in not the best location or just what we refer to as a hole in the wall folks will seek it out.

Too many have tried here with mediocrity that deteriorated to poor everything...untrained help and management...removed ownership.

Every eatery that has failed since we have been here (14 years) fail because of inattention to the basics. If they are not failed they are in deterioration, run by folks who are not invested and more importantly do not care.

I have said many times there is no secret to success in the food business.

Why don’t they put the taco place in that location instead of the movie theater!

I liked the food, but the noise level drove me away.

How about a 'Hooters' themed restaurant called the 'Sag Wagon?'
