Default Sambos.......

The name of this restaurant became synonymous with bigotry.
My folks used to take us to the Malt House before the seventies and eighties, however.
During the fifties and sixties I am certain..

Fargos was awesome. Good pizza and a really great decor. Loved the cozy nook seating.

There was a Sambo's on Pat Booker Road in Universal City, a Three Bears hamburger place where China Moon is, and a De Winn's Cafe also on Pat Booker. Loop 410 as you go to North Star Mall had CoCo's. There was a seafood restaurant next to the Galaxy theatre, now a Santikos. There was Christie's Seafood on Broadway, and Youngblood's Fried Chicken.

we used to eat at "UR Cooks"at Lohmann's Village & Loop 410. 1989 was the 1st time I ate there. I was hooked after that! I think it closed in the mid to late 90's. it was an awesome place! great steaks! I sure miss it!

I liked Po Folks. I usually went to the one on Fredericksburg Road but went to the one on Walzem and the one on Fair Ave.
