Bar-B-Cutie Restaurant

[rbinms33]

Anybody ever heard of this place or eaten there? I'm usually not one for franchises but we've got one opening up right around the corner from our office and I'm hoping it's going to give the other franchises like Smokey Bones a run for their money.

I've heard of them, but never eaten at one.
The name seems awfully silly.
What's cute BBQ?
Or is it cute staff?
Maybe the Hooters of BBQ?
No idea.

Go to Willie B's.....

Lot's of cuties there. Wills got great taste.

I agree with Joe: That's a silly farking name. Was it already taken when you were naming your restaurany, Joe? :biggrin:

The name never crossed my mind.
I originally wanted to call it Rosenjoe's, but the wife didn't want her name in it.

I have seen them trying to find people to franchise them up here in MI. I think they are more like a bandanna's bbq kind of like a cracker barrel with bbq.

That was a joke, Joe.

Update......they opened and I never saw a full parking lot. They did the "under new management" thing back in the early summer and then closed about a month ago. Question.....how do large chains survive building a BRAND NEW restaurant in a nice part of town only to have it close less than a year later. Am I missing something here? I did eat there once....not the best I've had but not the worst either. Bottom line.....hard to start up a que bidnezz here in the Memphis area.
