I voted, but I must say I wish I could have gone for a top 3 and included Zip’s and Arthurs. My three MUST DO places when I get back. Good luck!
I can’t tell you how much I miss going out to eat, but I could have MUCH bigger problems! God bless the healthcare workers!

I like my Skykyline as much as anyone. Try to stop when I'm in town.
But if a chili parlor is one of your top 3 restaurants, you need to get out more often (once this self-quarantine stuff is over).
Do it BJ...do it !

Well that was a tough one. Since I parked cars at the Precinct while I was at X in the 80’s, but I did drink quite a few at Dana’s. Then I realized one was work and the other was pleasure, so I voted for Dana’s.

WTF happened to PHC. Thought they were firmly entrenched in 3rd, only to be overtaken by a decent margin by Dana's and by a wider margin by some place called Christine's, which was also well behind Dana.
In any case, Dana came in the money, so....
Congratulations and well done Xavierhoops nation.
Are there restrictions or expectations on how the money was to be utilized? My hope is just keeping the place open for now and into the future.

Thank you to everyone who voted. We couldn't have done it without you. I talked to the guys today. They are stopping in on Thursday to buy $1000 in Gift Certificates. Their plan is to pass them out to First responders dealing with Pandemic. Thanks to you guys we have an extra 1K in sales and the local first responders will get to enjoy dinner/drinks from Dana's.

Congrats to Dana's and the first responders who will benefit from the gift cards. A high school buddy was a Norwood police officer who dropped me off once in his squad car at Dana's. I'm sure there have been a few pick-up's over the decades, but probably not as may being dropped off.
