Restaurants like The Woodshed develope a clientele that, quite frankly, could eat wherever they wanted to, so service and food quality become extremely important. Appleebees-type restaurants depend upon an ever renewing clientele growing from first-time and youthful customers, and probably have an extraordinarily high percentage of first and second time diners, compared to a Woodshed-type restaurant that cultivates a high percentage of regulars because of the good service and food quality.

I wish the new owners all the best in their undertaking, and I look forward to opening day.

The wife and I can't wait. We have gone here for our anniversary until the fire. We hope to be able to visit the new Woodshed soon.
