OG has been busy lately trying to turn around their brand which was
getting stale. There food is better now, but of course it's still a huge
challenge to try to entice former patrons back in to give them another
try. OG may have reacted in time to save the brand, I think RL reacted
with too little too late and will eventually close down.
