Rialto
I've never eaten there before, but there was a blurb in the WSJ this morning highlighting a deal at Rialto. According to the paper, "On Monday nights, oysters cost $1 each (they're usually $2 each) and nightly there is a $40 three-course dinner option (usual dinner price: roughly $55)."
The problem with cutting
The problem with cutting back on lunch service when it comes to that set of people is they will find some other place to have lunch so when you reopen those hours those people may not be there anymore.
Ken's Deserted
A few days ago, after watching a movie at the Framingham Cinema complex, I went around the corner to Ken's Sterak House. The place was deserted at 6:00 pm Sunday and not many people showed up after we did. I wouldn't be surprised if before 2009 has run its course, the only remnant of Ken's will be the salad dressing.
Naw, Ken's customers are
Naw, Ken's customers are just dying off. The average age in their dining room has to be at least 75.
Furthermore Ken's has been horribly bad for the past decade. I had a sweetheart take my parents there to celebrate an event - the food was embarrassingly awful. If it hadn't been our dinner meal (and costing my ex considerably in CA$) it'd have been funny. Instead it verged on disgusting.
As poorly trained as the staff is at the Metro 9 chophouse across the street at least the food is prepared decently (weak praise indeed.)
