Wow.

I wonder if it so he can completely focus on his daughter? They did decent business there. I feel bad for their family right now. Just a sad situation

Can someone elaborate a little for those of us who are out of state and have no idea who this is, what their business is/was, what is situation with their daughter etc. Thanks.

They had gone full scale restaurant. Best burgers in town by far. This is their bacon double cheeseburger with buffalo ranch fries. I was full after, if you were wondering.

Terrible news

Great hamburger and friendly guy. I hate that for him. That mushroom and feta stuffed beef patty was awesome

Best burger. Best fries. Great deli sandwiches (Rueben #1) and brisket sandwich. Great lunchtime fried chicken.

Brian's daughter battling leukemia. There was a pancake breakfast fundraiser at Applebee's last Saturday morning.

Sad to see it go away.

Terrible news. My thoughts are with his family as his daughter battles cancer.

I bought a ton of steaks and plate lunches at that place. It was always a positive experience, and I hate to hear they are closing.

He will continue t cater, just shutting down the restaurant

Still sucks though. I like that place

If there's any positive to this it's being located in Starkville. People really know how to get behind a cause.

It was one of the most popular places at my fraternity. Sad to hear about a popular and successful local business closing but it's admirable for him to dedicate everything for his daughter.

Man... I remember the first time I went there, I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and was blown away as to how big and good it was.. There was no picking it up to eat it.
