(1)  Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
       prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
       for interim financial information and with the instructions to
       Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
       include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
       accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In
       the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
       recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
       been included.  Operating results for the thirteen week period ended
       April 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
       be expected for the year ended January 28, 2001.  For further
       information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
       footnotes thereto included in the Company's 10-K and Annual Report to
       Stockholders as filed on April 23, 2000.

(2)  Net Earnings Per Share
     The Company, as required under FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per
     Share, calculates and presents both a basic and diluted earnings per
     share in the financial statements. Earnings per common share is computed
     on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
     during each period presented.  The Company has granted options to
     employees to purchase 1,247,525 shares of common stock at a weighted
     average exercise price of $2.01 per share.  These options were not
     included in the computation of diluted earrings per share because the
     exercise price of those options exceeded the average market price of the
     common shares during the quarter.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
     Results of Operation.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended April 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended May 2, 1999.

     For the three months ended April 30, 2000, sales increased 21.6% to
$5,629,353 as compared to $4,630,842 for the first quarter of the prior year.
As of April 30, 2000, the Company operated fourteen Amarillo Mesquite Grills
as compared to twelve Amarillo Mesquite Grills as of May 2, 1999.

     Cost of sales, as a percentage of total sales, was 34.2% for the quarter
ended April 30, 2000 as compared to 34.4% for the first quarter of the prior
year.

     Operating expenses, as a percentage of total sales, were 50.8% and 47.5%
for the 2000 and 1999 periods respectively.  The increase in operating expense
is due to an increase in promotional costs related to various programs designed
to increase customer counts and same store sales.  These programs were
successful in reaching both objectives.

     General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, was 5.6%
for the quarter ended April 30, 2000, as compared to 6.7% for the first
quarter of the prior year. The decrease in general and administrative expense,
as a percentage of sales, is the result of increasing sales while maintaining
the dollar amount of expense at a fairly constant level for both periods.

     Depreciation and amortization is directly related to the acquisition and
disposition of fixed assets.  The investment in fixed assets increased
approximately $775,000 from the end of the first quarter last year to the end
of the first quarter of the current year.  Consequently, depreciation and
amortization increased.

     Interest expense was $159,506 for the quarter ended April 30, 2000 as
compared to $160,353 for the same period a year ago.  Interest expense is a
function of the interest rate and the amount of debt.  While the interest rate
has increased over the past few months, the amount of short and long-term debt
has decreased.  Consequently interest expense has remained relatively constant.

     The Company incurred noncash expenses of $24,460 for the 2000 and 1999
periods respectively, relating to the issuance of stock options pursuant to
debt guarantees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company's primary sources of funding to finance its business have been
its cash flow from operations, and proceeds from bank debt.  On April 30, 2000
and January 30, 2000, the Company had an excess of current liabilities over
current assets of $7,412,096 and $1,803,342, respectively.    However included
as a current liability as of April 30, 2000 is a bank note payable in the
amount of $5,904,586 which is due April 15, 2001.  Management expects to renew
the note on April 15, 2001 and commence making monthly principal payments based
on a 60 month amortization period.  Cash flow form operations was $183,086 and
$204,646 for 2000 and 1999 respectively.  Management anticipates higher cash
flow from operations in fiscal 2001 and that such higher operating cash flow
will enable the Company to meet its financial obligations in fiscal 2001 as
they come due.

     On May 12, 1998, the President of the Company loaned the Company $250,000
to fund construction cost overages.  The note was an unsecured 10% demand note
due January 1, 1999.  As of April 30, 2000, the note had a balance of $164,922
and has been renewed with a due date of January 3, 2001.  Although the
Company's President has made loans to the Company in the past, there is no
assurance that he will make additional loans in the future.

     Substantially, all of the Company's revenues are derived from cash
sales.  The Company does not maintain significant receivables and inventories;
therefore, working capital requirements for operations are not significant.

     The Company plans to continue expansion of the Amarillo Mesquite Grill
concept in fiscal 2001.  The Company intends to lease existing restaurant
properties which are suitable for conversion to the Amarillo Mesquite Grill
concept.  It is expected that each conversion will require approximately
$300,000 to $500,000 for equipment and remodel costs.  A ground-up proto-type
restaurant will cost approximately $1.3 million for the land, building and
equipment.  The Company has no commitments for financing at this time. In order
for the Company to meet its expansion goals for fiscal 2001, it will need to
raise additional funds through debt or equity instruments, the availability and
terms of which will depend upon market and other conditions.  There can be no
assurance that such additional financing will be available on terms acceptable
to the Company.

     The Company has restructured its long-term bank debt to provide for
interest only payments through April 15, 2001.  The purpose of the
restructuring is to use cash flow to open additional restaurants that would
otherwise be used to retire long term debt.  Management views this as a way
to continue our growth, that should result in increased future earnings and
cash flow, but do so without increasing bank debt.

     This report contains certain forward-looking statements, including those
relating to the opening of additional restaurants and planned capital
expenditures.  Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying
the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, actual results
could differ materially from such forward-looking statement.  In light of the
significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included
herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a
representation by the Company that objectives and plans of the Company will be
achieved.
