I find that it depends upon the manager at the individual stores, some
GC's (same goes for Ryan's)are adequate and some are terrible and some
nights at the same one it can be great and next night gross. I hate it
when I go and it's kids eat free night, smells like a herd of wet dogs!
I swear I'll walk out if I ever find it's kid's eat free night. I can't
rid the image from my mind of kids (let alone what one might classify as
an adult)that have picked their noses and other intimate parts grabbing
the same serving spoon! LOL
