You were missing out. I eat there frequently with the girl friend cause she loves it to. Just call ahead to avoid the 90 minute wait times Fri and Sat night.

Out of curiosity, what is your last name? I know its a weird question but my name is Sam and my last name starts with a D as well, and I used to live in Ind. and had a guy there with the same name and it was messing with something like a hospital bill or something at the time, I can't remember. PM me if you'd rather.

Oh yeah, Texas Roadhouse is the ****, I live like 3 minutes from one, their ribeye is de-frickin'-licious.

LOL I wasn't aware that Kenosha and Janesville are one and the same. John doesn't get north of Lake-Cook road very often I guess. HEHE.

I live 5 min south of the one in Kenosha. The mountain trout is good for $9...can't beat it.
