Sly, any experience with this chain?

Here's the menu: https://musclemakergrill.com/menu/

I don't think ballcoach will be impressed.

I don't like how many items say reduced fat or fat-free. But they do have low carb options so I may have to give them a try. LCHF is where it's at!

I give it less time than Zaxby's in Forest. They don't call this area the Cardiac Corridor for nothing

I reviewed menu. Only thing looks eatable is the burger. I don't see it lasting long. A BK on Ward's Road would do better.

Never have even stumbled across one here in Houston. Their locations are in rather random but affluent areas of Houston. But clearly they have VC behind them and a rapid expansion strategy.

Yes. I believe it was. And Little Ceasars used to be a Krispy Kreme

Ironically I believe it was AFTER I got back from Morgantown

Still can't understand how a Krispy Kreme couldn't make it in a college town; of course, LU was much smaller back then.

I might go if someone pays for my meal. No way would I ever eat a burger with a wheat bun, that's just disgusting. Some of the wraps sound like they would be decent, but wraps are a ripoff given what you get for the price at most places. Could probably be convinced to eat that sesame chicken pasta. Hard pass on the rest. Looks like one of those types of places I might try once but I'd be damned if I ever go back. But chances are I never set foot in that place. If I want to eat healthy, I'll do it at home where I can do it cheaper.

We ate there a few times when we resided in Dallas. The food was good, but we didn't order the burger.
