Another thing to consider too...try to come up with some type of signature sammich or dish....be known for something. I'm not familiar with your area so I'm not sure what competition there is. Try to scope out local places...see what kind of things they offer...maybe offer something different? A few car shows I've gone to at a bar/grille type place had some good seafood stuff(little neck clams, muscles, shrimp, not everyone wants a burger all the time). God I sound like Gordon Ramsey lol

I think it's great that you're doing that, it's actually one of my dreams to open up a place but unfortunately I can't be on my feet all day to cook and/or run a place like that.
