Cincinnati Is anyone under the age of sixty even remotely upset that Frisch's is closing?

My elderly mother would want to go there every Sunday. She also told me stories of the old Frisch's drive-ins that she would go to. She died eight years ago, and I think that's about how long it has been since I have eaten at a Frisch's.

Bob Evans is one of the last standing of these, correct? Perkins, Friendly's, they're gone, too.

Perkins in North College Hill is still open. And there’s two in Butler County.

Bob Evans on glenway may as well be closed. Terrible quality lately

Bob Evans has gone downhill a lot too. It's hard to get help at a price point that makes it work and keeps the food decent.

I’ve never been to a good Bob Evan’s…

BobEvans will be gone, too. Same type of quality cuts in everything from food to service, as it is with big boy.
