THIS IS JUST A SUGGESTION TO THE OWNERS OF 'ROCKY'S ROADHOUSE' IT IS MID SUMMER HERE IN THE MOUNTAINS...SATURDAY NIGHT AROUND 8:30PM...I HAVE GUESTS UP FOR THE WEEKEND WHOM I HAVE BEEN BRAGGING TO ABOUT THE AWESOME SANDWICHES MADE AT YOUR VERY COMFY, FRIENDLY AND CLEAN RESTAURANT HERE IN RUNNING SPRINGS..WE ALL ARE HUNGRY FOR A 'ROCKY'S ITALIANO'....BUT TO OUR DISAPPOINTMENT. YOU ARE CLOSED.... WE ALL KNOW THINGS TEND TO SHUT DOWN EARLY AROUND HERE IN THESE HILLS...BUT EVEN JENSEN'S IS OPEN UNTIL 10PM ON A SATURDAY NITE! WE ARE REALLY BUMMED, BUT HAVE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. I BELIEVE THAT YOUR BUSINESS WOULD PROSPER IF OPEN AT LEAST UNTIL 10PM ON A FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT ..ESPECIALLY DURING THE SUMMER WHEN DAYLIGHT IS ALMOST UNTIL 8:15PM AND THE WEATHER IS WARM AND PEOPLE LOVE TO EAT LATER IN THE SUMMER AND SIT OUTSIDE DURING THE EVENING ALONG WITH A NICE COLD DRAFT BEER!! JUST SAYIN'...HOPE YOU CONSIDER CHANGING YOUR SCHEDULE TO ACCOMMODATE AT LEAST US...
