That's not as good as the one I wish I had gotten a picture of, and proof that although your business specializes in one thing (in this case, a restaurant), you really should state exactly what you are selling.
The International House of Pancakes, or IHOP, or as Anne and I named it, the International Temple Beth Latke, on Kirby and 59 here in Houston, once had a banner that read:
SENIOR CITIZENS Buy one, get one free
So, I went in and asked for my free old person, and the waitress was caught so off guard she called her manager. So I took him outside and showed him, and said, I wanted my free old person, but only if it was fresh. He tried to explain, but I went off, ranting about false advertising and such. It was a nice evening.

Still, I wish I had a photo of it!
