My club picked them for dinner meetings because they were reasonably
priced, had a variety of dishes, and separate eating areas if not
quite banquet rooms -- and of course, pie!

But the one we ate at three years ago closed the next year, and the
one we ate at two years ago became a Denny's. So anyone who didn't
know they were on the decline wasn't paying attention.
