We have tried our hardest to keep up with rising costs and rough times; but, unfortunately, we have not been able to overcome all of the obstacles. We want to thank all of our loyal customers that have been with us through the years and, also, the newest customers. We don't always know what God's plans are, but we will continue to follow the path he leads us down. We appreciate all of the support we have had from all of you over the years.<br />We will be having a final goodbye event for all of our customers on Saturday, April 5th. Please stop in anytime after 6 pm to wish us well and hang out with the Maniaci family for one last time. We look forward to seeing you April 5th."Javier Gilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-62594194299512323992014-02-06T12:44:01.817-05:002014-02-06T12:44:01.817-05:00I'll bet pennies to dollars that the extravaga...I'll bet pennies to dollars that the extravagantly negative reviews are planted by the competition who must be shivering in their shoes.Iznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-71292867704260672742013-09-05T00:44:18.895-04:002013-09-05T00:44:18.895-04:00Sysco doesn't care about the little guys.

When its brought to their attention they make no effort to rush it to you. Most little guys don't even use sysco because they are to expensive.roymlbraenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-78780550764517846382013-09-04T23:21:16.477-04:002013-09-04T23:21:16.477-04:00SYSSYSScrambledEggKingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-59125517770525087512013-03-17T14:07:00.288-04:002013-03-17T14:07:00.288-04:00I watched it on tv and i want to say way to go guy...I watched it on tv and i want to say way to go guys your mon would be proudmichellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-20558911035447859202013-03-14T11:30:11.411-04:002013-03-14T11:30:11.411-04:00What...you mean SYSCO isn't providing SYSCO pr...What...you mean SYSCO isn't providing SYSCO product regularly from SYSCO to a place that can't pay for it?<br /><br />(gotta get the necessary product placement into the post)slapchoppednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-44689221476382380902013-03-12T00:55:55.697-04:002013-03-12T00:55:55.697-04:00I plan to visit your restaurant for the first time...I plan to visit your restaurant for the first time this coming Friday evening for a St. Patrick's Day event being sponsored there. One of our closest friend's niece has worked there for 15 years, and he invited us to join him there on Friday. I just caught the "rerun" of the show on Comcast's On Demand. I'm actually excited to find a new restaurant in this area because I recently moved to exactly 3.1 miles away (according to mapquest) from the restaurant. My thanks to Robert Irvine and the three owners and staff for giving me a new place to enjoy a good meal.

Irvine seems to be pushing this fish on quite a number of restaurants. (For the record, I like it but it's usually as expensive as salmon on most menus, and darned if WF or my big-city foodie fishmonger carries it). In order to get fish of this caliber and freshness, it takes a topnotch purveyor willing to deliver regularly if not daily (ditto with meats & produce). How many struggling restaurants in such dire straits that they need to go on "RI" can convince such purveyors to extend them the credit they need to buy & serve this stuff?ChicagoSandynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-54999902300227905082013-03-10T23:07:18.346-04:002013-03-10T23:07:18.346-04:00Is the restaurant no longer owned by the original ...Is the restaurant no longer owned by the original family?
