Restaurants open on Thanksgiving for Lunch BR

Eat at home so the servers can spend time with their family

Downvote all you want, but we did Cracker Barrel the year my father died, and it was a delicious homestyle meal. It was much better than their regular menu.

Texas de Brazil is open Thanksgiving

Knockout martini is their signature drink, not a chocolate martini.

Wife ordered a chocolate martini (used to be their signature drink) and had to return it bc whatever the hell they served her didn’t even remotely resemble a chocolate martini. The manager got involved and had no clue what a chocolate martini was supposed to look/taste like either. Unbelievable.

The family and I went recently, my steak was literally rancid. I thought it smelled a funny before I bit into it, but put that off on sinuses. Cutting into the center of the steak exposed that dull grey color associated with meat being spoiled.

The waitress was friendly, but once she took our food orders she disappeared to the back. She may have had one other table, so she was not slammed with customers. After a few minutes I finally had to flag down the hostess to inform her of the issue.

The waitress came out, apologized profusely, and took my food back. What she did not do was notice that most of our drinks were empty (at a place like Sullivan's, this should not happen). The manager came by to apoloize and reassure us, he had mannerisms (quirky movements/posture) that reminded me of someone on meth. He also did not seem to understand the point of asking about refills, so I had to point out my empty drink to him.

The waitress brought out the new steak and had me check it, then once again disappeared into the back until she came out to check on desserts.

The new steak was fine (as was the meal of everyone else in my party) and they comp'd my meal, but the level of service you expect at a restaurant of that level was not all there.
