Lunch hours and availability vary by location. Many restaurants open at 11 AM Friday through Sunday and later in the afternoon Monday through Thursday, so some locations do not serve a separate weekday lunch at all. The best move is to check your nearest store on the locations page or call ahead.

Are lunch portions the same size as dinner?

Lunch portions are usually a little lighter than the full dinner portions, which suits a midday meal. They still come with the same made from scratch sides and the warm fresh baked rolls.

What is included with each lunch entree?

Most lunch entrees come with a choice of two made from scratch sides, such as mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, steamed broccoli, grilled vegetables, or sweet potato fries, plus the fresh baked rolls with cinnamon honey butter.

How much can you save eating lunch instead of dinner?

Lunch portions usually run about 25 to 30 percent below the dinner price. For example, the 6oz sirloin is around $16.99 at dinner and about $11.99 at lunch, so you get the same quality for less.

Are lunch specials available on weekends?

Lunch portions and pricing are mainly a weekday thing at most locations, though hours differ by restaurant. On weekends many locations run the full menu all day. Check your local store to be sure.
