My kids wanted to eat inside instead of the drive-thru. I forgot that this location was newly renovated. It was impressive, modern, and welcoming. However, no one was in there at the time. I think its declining reputation of being a family restaurant over the years has made it a lost cause.

Looking at that video reminds me of Chik-Fil-A today. It's the one fast food place that middle class families will dine inside and are not ashamed by it.
