Wish I had a picture of the restaurant itself...but this location in St. Clairsville, Ohio was still open as of 2009, but closed and was demolished sometime thereafter.

They have a website up.

Appears they still have 8 locations in Ohio, 2 in Kentucky, one in Parkersburg, WV
and one in Joliet, IL.

A buddy of mine was in their management training program back in the day.
At the time they were running very strange animated TV commercials featuring
a character called "Mr. Delicious".

Wouldn't you know it - I did take a picture of the St. Clairsville location after all.

Again, this has been demolished.

Found a rather unusual use for a former Rax this week. This location was converted to a dry cleaners and car wash some time ago, but has clearly not been in business for a while. Should have stuck to the beef.

There was a RAX in Pittsfield, Mass in the 80s. Great food.

If I remember.. it was on Route 7...I and my ex g/f and kids were coming home from a camping trip....
