    I ordered fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy (figuring it would be hard to screw that up). They did.

    However, my boys enjoyed a fine dinner of gummy bears, marshmallows and ice cream.
    Fresh, not from concentrate.

        either way, the chances of the one by the Super8 being gone next year were pretty high.
        It is. Edit "Elm Grove" is actually a neighborhood of wheeling. Even though it's a separate building Hoss's was consodered part of the "Elm Groove" shopping center where the grocery store is.

          It was my first big dinner with the whole crew, so good service or not, I will always have a very special memory of Hoss's!

              The exit sign for the Krueger museum/Super 8 says Elm Grove.

                The MegoMeet neighborhood is called Elm Grove. I think it used to be its own town but got incorporated at part of Wheeling in, like 1928 or something. During the meet I read in the local paper said that Elm Grove collected more taxes than any other neighborhood in Wheeling last year. I think Hoss's is successful, it's just that they lost the lease to the building. Maybe a new Hoss's will open somewhere else in the area. Maybe a Denny's or something will open in that location.
