    About I love this bar and grill

    Frank Capri, CEO of Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill, is once again expanding his chain of restaurants every fan will love with. Inspired by country star Toby Keith, it has quickly won over the hearts of diners all over the country, including Mesa Arizona, Minneapolis Minnesota, Rancho Cucamonga California, Cincinnati, Ohio, Folsom California, Rosemont Illinois, Auburn Hills Michigan , Foxborough Massachusetts and Denver Colorado. More and more franchises of this restaurant are opening up, too. Of course, these restaurants are named after Keith's hit single from 2003, but you definitely will love this bar. The bars themselves in these locations are in the shape of giant guitars, creating a unique country music atmosphere that visitors will love. To complete the southern atmosphere at the bar, there are plenty of specialty cocktails to choose from, featuring everyone's down-home favorites like Jack Daniels and Southern Comfort. Anyone who loves country music will feel right home at these restaurants. The atmosphere is over-the-top country � in a good way. There are cowgirl servers and country music videos playing on every television screen. Several nights a week the bar hosts live country bands which make for a great night out � and when they don't, there is a country DJ to play your favorite tunes. The menu is fairly traditional southern American food, but they do it big. Whether you're getting the ribs or the chicken wings, it's impossible not to notice the insanely generous portion sizing for a very fair price. It's also one of the only places around you can get a fried bologna sandwich on Texas toast just like your mama used to make�if not better! There are no sides missing from this southern menu, either. Any country food you crave will be available, whether its mashed sweet potatoes, creamed corn, mac and cheese, or even fried okra dusted with cornmeal. The authentic recipes will bring southerners back to their roots, even if they're visiting a Michigan location, and will give northerners a taste of what it's like to be from the country. Finally, once you're all done dining, stop in the Toby Keith gift shop for some rare and unique memorabilia. Country lovers can't find this elsewhere!
