    John and I both used to love Raxs. My favorite was the deluxe roast beef sandwich. Thanks for bringing back good memories. We enjoyed the table talk.😎😎

    A local gentleman
    Rich Donohue here in my hometown of Ironton Ohio now owns the Rax name and stores. He bought the rights when they went under several years ago. We frequently visit the RAX in Ironton.
    Glad you enjoyed it.

We were visitng family about an hour away and decided to finally make the voyage since we don't know how much longer they'll stay open. If y'all end up finding the recipe for the BBC sauce, we'd love to have the secret....it's sooo good! We hope that y'all have a Merry Christmas and get to visit a Rax soon.

    OMG, I can't believe you are in my hometown of Circleville, OH.....home of the Circleville Pumpkin Show (Ohio's oldest and largest festival). The giant pumpkin weighed 2,388 lbs. last year & this year the weight was 2,226 lbs. Next time you are in Circleville, you have to try a pumpkin donut at Lindsey's Bakery. I also prefer Rax over Arby's. Good 'ole Ohio. Ohio still has a Rax, Ponderosa, York Steakhouse and a few Arthur Treacher's in the Cleveland area. I hear Ranchers Roast Beef in Washington Court House has an excellent roast beef sandwich. Go Buckeyes!

The lady who helped us with our passports had also mentioned Ranchers when we told her that we were traveling to Circleville to eat at Rax. We'll halso have to try out Lindsey's Bakery the next time we're up in Circleville. Thanks for the recommendations. GO BUCKEYES!! Merry Christmas to you and your family.

    OMG Rax is better than Arby's? Well i can't say much about you saying that Rax is better than Arby's. I never ate there so i can't compare the 2 restaurants. But i absolutely love Arby's roast beef sandwiches with lots of Arby's sauce i can literally drink their Arby's sauce it's the best their is on a good ole roast beef sandwich. I always get the biggest roast beef sandwich they make. And put tons of Arby's sauce on it along with cheese sticks and sauce. And a huge sweet tea. Im totally in love with Arby's. To me that's the best fast food restaurant they ever made. But if i ever come across this restaurant Rax i definitely will give them a try. But my question is what is the difference between the 2 roast beef sandwiches? Does Rax have different style of how they roast their beef?

    • @EveryDayIsSaturdayTV
      @EveryDayIsSaturdayTV  Месяц назад

      Great question! Rax's cheddar cheese also has worcestershire sauce, vinegar, sugar, mayonaise, and natural bacon flavoring (Which we assume is bacon grease) mixed in. It gives it a really dynamic flavor. Jennifer is not a fan of mayonaise, so that may be attributed to why she wasn't as big of a fan of their cheese sauce. If you enjoy Arby's, we think that you'd absolutely love Rax. Rax also provides the option to get your beef and cheddar on an onion bun, just like Arby's. Many blame Rax's decline in the number of restaurants due to poor marketing tactics in an increasingly competitive fast food market back in the 90s, but that information is just from some of what we've read online. We hope that you have an amazing weekend, Darci. If you end up trying a Rax, we'd love to hear your thoughts.
