Fleur De Lis was nice when Junior Guercio owned it and it was a bar room or as my father would call it a saloon and they were known for strong drinks, cold beer and pinball. Pizza was then just bar food and I sat at that bar starting around 1975 while my father and grandfather sat there in the mid to late 30's.

Since he died and his daughter took it over ( quite a few years ago-like 20) it has become Chuck E Cheese.

Mike Anderson's hasn't been "go to" since late 70's early 80's. It makes it's money on game weekends from the out of towners for the most part.

Pastime is about like Fleur De Lis. An old bar that serves food and is located not far from downtown so the drunk lawyers can have a pop between dockets. Nothing more nothing less.

TJ Ribs doesn't get the love it once did when everyone was mashing their bag over baby back ribs. Not a bad place but not as much love as you might think. It blows hot and cold even on this board.

Even mentioning Applebee's allows me to discount your thread beyond Labor Day Sale price.

Read the health department report on the place and you'll never go back.

FDL is disgusting. The place is well past the "charming" point. I went while it was raining and the entire front wall (which is a frosty window) was leaking so they had it lined with mildewed towels.

The food doesn't come close to making up for the condition of the place. I got their pizza again recently to see if I just misjudged. Nope. Still bad.

I had a friend work there and she said the owners were horrible to work for. I've also seen people kicked out for saying the word "damn" at their table because it is a kids restaurant.
