Toledo stuff, Damon's closed....

Don't know if it was related to the smoking ban or if the new Smokey Bones took out too much of their business but Damon's closed on Airport, supposedly with no warning to some of the employees that still showed up for work.

The store location has been removed from the company's website though....

Rib off won't be the same without them.

Last few times we went there they were not busy, even on a Saturday night though...

Sorry for your loss. It was shitty on how management decided not to tell the employees, though. But, alas, change is constant and the old makes way for the new again. Sounds like a crappy Hallmark card comment. Poetry wasn't my strong suit anyway. ;)

It's hard to get a decent pulled pork barbeque sandwich...or at least it used to be. Damon's had the best until I discovered Smokey Bones so it's probably my fault....my betrayl in search of the better barbeque killed them off.

Some of local places have survived the smoking ban for Toledo, some haven't so I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it or not nobody seems to know.

I feel bad for the employees too, that's not a cool way to find out you have no job. If there is a cool way to find it out.

Wow, that stinks. Brad and I were just there last week trying to decide whether we wanted to eat at Texas Roadhouse or Lonestar Steakhouse or Don Pablo's or Fridays or Damons or the Brew House or any of the other thousands of restaurants around, and we narrowed down our choices to either Lonestar or Damon's. Brad was in the mood for ribs. Lonestar won because of the baked sweet potatoes. Now we'll never get the chance to go to Damon's again (at least not in Toledo)
They're not joking when they say Toledo has an inordinately high ratio of restaurants to people.
