I just learned about this at the library from one of the librarians.

I've never seen this place but would so go!

Sarah Smith says:

The Rax's in Ohio don't have the salad bar anymore. That's pretty cool that the Illinois one still has it.

Newman OutDoors says:

Great find ,now I remember them we had one on colerain ave .

Shannon B says:

Nice! It’s like a cross between Shoney’s and Arby’s! And, gotta love sexist 80’s commercials haha!

Ivan and Alyssa says:

Alyssa here!! My mom used to tell me of this place interesting to see one still around. Must visit soon. Great video!

Karen Louise says:

To me, there's nothing wrong with old school. That roast beef looks good & you don't see many salad bars anymore which is surprising since there's so much emphasis on healthy eating. I used to make a meal off that. How does it compare to Arby's?

The Duo Finds says:

Gotta love the endless salad bar! We’ve never been… maybe we’ll do a field trip. Also, adding the commercial was a nice touch.

Bits and Bites with Bets says:

Nice video! We used to go to Rax in Decatur, Illinois when I was a kid. It’s been 3o+ years. 😊
