I think the criticism above of April 28th Smitty's Restaurant is unnecessarily negative. It only gives people a chance to post mean and negative comments about a restaurant struggling to survive. It is easy for posters to say "they are pigs" "shut it down." But, having been a life-time self-employed business person I know how easy it is to get beyond discouraged and to start letting things slip especially when you are working your butt off and losing money every day because of the current economic situation in our country that started in 2007. So, unless you have eaten there don't run this business down before it has a chance to turn around.Rita C.

We can only hope that they keep trying to improve their cleanliness and their food-handling practices. In their (limited) defense, lots of restaurants can be dunned for storing meat over veggies or putting chemicals near food--mistakes happen and places learn (or should learn) from their mistakes.LoupGarouTFTsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-13097979653365745542013-04-28T23:26:08.172-04:002013-04-28T23:26:08.172-04:00SurprisedRobert let them continuing to be in the r...SurprisedRobert let them continuing to be in the restaurant business.
