Who remembers this restaurant? Fast food Italian concept. Not sure when they were open. Wanna say around 1998 or so...

Dem bread sticks, doe.


Food wasn't bad for "fast food Italian". Of course, I was in high school so that may have had something to do with it.

I remember. They had another on O'neal by the interstate. Everyone seemed to like the food, don't know why they didn't make it.

Breadsticks were like Olive Garden's, which is pretty great for fast food. Their other food was just ok.

God I haven't heard that name in a LONG time. Breadsticks were amazing. The father of a kid in my class owned the br location as I recall

They still exists. I tried one in Pensacola a few months back. I used to think I missed it. The breadsticks were still good, everything else was pretty disappointing.

Food was ok, breadsticks were fantastic, service was good and speedy. We ate there several times before movies at Tinseltown or Seigan Village.

It was 1999-2000ish I wanna say. It was one of the hotspots for lunch when I worked construction in the summers.

There is still one in Waco, TX. I always liked their Italian sandwiches. Great peppers.

There's also at least one in Memphis. I stopped there last time I was driving through.

That location has been a graveyard for pretty much everything that's been there. Mexican joint, Niche( I think), Fazolis, etc. Poboy express seems to be holding its own though.
