That NY City Pizza place on Jefferson. What's the story on that place? There's never any customers in there.

Food is AMAZING, owner is a super dick. If you can, look for a show called "Restaurant Impossible," this place and the owner are featured on an episode. Dude is from Long Island and acts like it. Says customers can't put shite on a pizza they want to if it's not "the right way"

The Londoner is either busy or packed every time I go, which is at least twice a month.

The Dillard's Clearance store is fantastic and constantly busy and packed at times.

GN Gonzales-I know of very few people who have actually purchased a bike there. I heard the manufacturers made them do some renovations recently as they were threatening to pull the dealership. If it weren't for the nearby plants bringing traffic to the area I think they would have closed long ago.



GN Gonzales is more than a dealership. It's the Honda distributor for a huge area of the country. Every Honda motorcycle or car that's sold in the Southern United States passes through GN Gonzales.

Ruby Tuesdays lasted
Are they closed? I drive past there regularly, but I'm usually paying more attention to the photo-enforced intersection...

It's probably blasphemy around here, but I'll add Jay's BBQ on Government. Little joint tucked back in a small strip mall just down from LaCaretta's. Food is decent I guess, but I'm not sure how they survive on the few people I've seen in there on the odd occasion I stop by.

Got me to wondering when someone mentioned Ruby Tuesday's on College drive, looked it up and looks like they closed the doors about a year ago. Ate there a few times back in the day. Hate to see some of these establishments closing but the same happens in Great Falls eventhough it is an Air Force town.

Golden Corral on Sherwood is packed with poors quite often.

I'd love to know how DeAngelos on Coursey stays open.

That may have been true in 1959 when Honda started in the US but is no longer the case.

In fact, most Honda cars built for the US market are built in the US (exception: Fit, some CRV, Hybrids) and transported by truck directly to local dealerships. Honda themselves are the distributor.

On the bike side I think most Japanese crates come from Torrance, CA from Hondas distribution center there.

Went to that place with relatives once when I was a freshman. That was the first time my 18 year old fat arse ever said this place is too expensive and the food is garbage.

They change their menu every month or two. IDK, maybe I just hate Applebee's and I'm missing something


That's funny, I don't like Applebee's but I also don't know how often they change their menu since I don't go there

Went to the fox and hound a few years ago, and that place was outdated as hell. They still had old gigantic flat screen tv's everywhere.
