They closed the 2 locations by me about 2 years ago. That was a good place to get BBQ.

The one in my town has already closed. I noticed it the other day and was surprised.

Never heard of it.


EDIT: No wonder, there aren't any in California.

We had one open here about 2 years ago, now it is closing.

Exactly, for all the hype it got here on OS, apparently it was not that good of a restaurant. Not good enough to generate repeat / returning customers as the article stated.

Since you're in MA, where do you go?

This is bad news. That was the only place I could go to watch out of town NFL games AND get the sound. Ugh.

Anybody in the Chicago western 'burbs have any ideas?

The one here in Fort Walton is closing.
