How would you know this if you don't eat there?

Like all chain restaurants, the menu gets revised regularly. The last time I was there, I enjoyed what I ordered. And as a lifetime Weight Watcher, I was not bothered by the "un-healthiness" factor.

The OG atmosphere, OTOH, leaves me desiring something else. No matter where I sit, including the bar area (they had some cute name for it but it's the bar area) seems to be overrun with ill-behaved children.
