Bring back "TGIF" The place was always busy. The food was good. Why did they bail? Probably the fees they had to play.

Looking at his other locations' menus the prices look not much higher than Honest John's were. We'll see. But if they want to bring another celebrity restaurant here, I'd go for a Bobby Flay restaurant. Probably higher priced, but definitely worth it. Occasionally.

And what is is the business going to do between the "occasionally". That might have been what happened to Honest Johns.

I wouldn't expect too much. This guy is more of a celebrity than a chef and its not like he's going to be in the kitchen cooking for you. These kind of things are usually the product of the celebrity being paid a bunch of money for the use of his name, a personal appearance or two and not much else.
Most people that find themselves in this kind of position are there more of a result of their ability to promote themselves and speak well than for actual culinary skills.

I wonder what the menu might be? Will it be 2-3 pound burgers piled high with the kitchen sink as seen on most of his shows? I really don't eat that much at one sitting anymore so probably wouldn't support that type of restaurant. As far as Honest Johns goes my experiences have been disasters. Waiting and waiting and waiting for a table. They told me to come back in 45 min. I did, then still waited another 45 min to be seated next to the bar separated from my guests in order to finally eat. While waiting others coming in and being seated right away being told they had reservations but when I called they said they don't take them. Hostess just kept saying these people won't get up and leave, they just sit there and sit there. It was as I said a disaster and haven't been back since. No wonder they have been weeded out.

You can go online and look at menus for Guy's American Kitchen and Bar. There are a few of them and the menus vary. The menu will be more like the one in Mt. Pocono at the Mount Airy Casino. There will be some differences. Here is the standard menu. http://www.mountairycasino.com/wp-co...FieriMenu2.pdf

Guy is not going to be in the kitchen, like Emeril, Mario, Michael, Paula and others. They do a drive by in some of their restaurants, and some actually spend time there. There is not enough time in the day for them to be in all restaurants. We have met some chefs by accident while in one of their restaurants but just pure luck
