I hope they don't close the one near the Franklin Mall in Toledo, Ohio.
They carded me there a week before my 52nd. birthday.   Closest thing
that really exists to a Fountain of Youth!

lol the chain restaurant bubble is bursting like I didn't see that coming from a mile away overpriced food that you can get from a supermarket frozen case.. I prefer to just get a nice chicken parm from the local pizza place.. since these dumb chain-restaurants drove a lot of the good restaurants out of business
