Texas Roadhouse (Wash Ctr)
Cracker Barrel (Wash Ctr & Lima)
Steak & Shake (On Coldwater... in Amerisuite's same plaza next to WalMart)

BARS:
The Landing, downtown (Columbia Street between Calhoun and Harrison) has a lot of cool bars... my favorites are:
Columbia Street West (usually has bands on weekends)
the 412 Club (412 E. Washington, karaoke, cheap)
Pierres (Marketplace at Canterbury... take Wash Ctr East, it turns into St. Joe Ctr, its at the corner of St. Joe) has like, 8 or 9 bars/clubs in one, if you like the white trash dance club scene
If you want more specific recommendations for a particular type of food, location of a particular chain, or a particular attraction, I'll be happy to give them. Mark/Jim/Ryan can fill in more options, including strip club reviews.
