".. I have children because of that parking lot" It's like a real life, Michael Corleone.

I've been there a few times for a steak sandwich, when they weren't having a car shows because then it's easy in and easy out and I'll miss the steak sandwich.

While it is a definite iconic place - I bought fries there once and they were so greasy I never went back. That being said - a lot of people loved the place. :)

They need to be greasy for the salt to stay on!

Would have been nicer to see it handed down to another generation than torn down for a tire company. History and good food traded for tires? I dont like it.

LOVED LOVED LOVED the Chicken salad there!!

I've never heard of this place🤦🏾‍♂️

They had a good steak sandwich

[@desklamp1175]

I can't wait. Cars raced up and down North Ave. Nothing but noise. There were no auto shows, just loud mufflers. P.S. the Italian beef stunk.

While he has the right to do what eh wants, I wish he would have sold it to someone who'd buy the restaurant instead of sell it to a tire dealership.

[@cordinate81]

I dont eat garbage food so i dont even know this place!

[@peteyp123]

Probably another sub par joint 😂
