Note 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 the instructions to Form 10-Q,
and do  not include  all 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  of  the  results  for  the  interim  periods  have  been
included.   Operating results  for the  thirteen and  twenty-six  week
periods ended  July 2,  1997 are  not necessarily  indicative  of  the
results that  may be  expected for the fiscal year ending December 31,
1997. For  further information,  refer to the financial statements and
footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended January 1, 1997.

The consolidated  financial statements  include the  accounts  of  the
Company  and   its  wholly-owned   subsidiaries.     All   significant
intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Note 2.  Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 2,
1997 and  July 3,  1996 were  computed based  on the  weighted average
number of  common and  common equivalent  shares outstanding.   Common
equivalent shares  are represented  by shares  under option  and stock
warrants.

SFAS No. 128 Required Disclosure

In 1997,  the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 128. "Earnings per Share"
which will  require the Company to disclose Basic and Diluted earnings
per share  on the  face of  the income  statement. Basic  earnings per
share excludes  dilution, and is computed by dividing income available
to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for  the period.  The Company  will adopt SFAS 128 for the
fiscal year  ended December 31, 1997. Application of this statement in
the second  quarter of  1997 would have no material effect on earnings
per share as reported in the financial statements.








Note 3.  Legal Proceedings

On May 13, 1997, the Company received notice from Aetna Life Insurance
Company, the  mortgage holder  of the  property at which the Company's
Clearwater, Florida  restaurant is  located, that  Aetna  intended  to
foreclose on  the property  and terminate the Company's lease due to a
default by  the landlord  on the mortgage. In July 1997, Aetna filed a
Motion for  Summary Judgment  of Foreclosure with the Circuit Court of
the 6th  Judicial Court  in Pinellas  County. Should Aetna's motion be
granted, the Company would be forced to close the restaurant and would
realize a loss of approximately $372,000 on the write-off of leasehold
improvements at  the  Clearwater  location.  The  Company  intends  to
vigorously defend  its interest  in the  foreclosure action.  However,
there can  be no assurance that the Company will be successful in this
defense.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended July 2, 1997 versus July 3, 1996

     The Company  experienced a  decrease in  total sales  during  the
second thirteen weeks of 1997 compared to the second thirteen weeks of
1996. Same-store  sales (average  unit sales  in restaurants that have
been open for at least 18 months and operating during comparable weeks
during the  current and  prior year)  in the  second quarter  of  1997
decreased 8.9% from the same period in 1996, compared to a decrease of
5.2% from 1996 as compared to 1995.

     Management believes  that the  decrease in  same-store  sales  is
primarily due  to the  effects of  increasing  competition,  including
several new  or remodeled  restaurants opened  by competitors in areas
close to  Company restaurants.  Management is seeking to improve sales
trends by  focusing  on  improved  restaurant  operations,  retraining
restaurant  employee   staffs,  remodeling  certain  restaurants,  and
devising  competitive   strategies  to   offset  the  effects  of  new
competition.

     Historically, the  third and  fourth quarters of each fiscal year
are less  profitable  for  the  Company  than  the  first  and  second
quarters. If  year-to-date sales  trends continue,  the  Company  will
continue to incur losses in the third and/or fourth quarters.

     The costs  and expenses of the Company's restaurants include food
and beverage,  payroll and  benefits, depreciation  and  amortization,
repairs, maintenance,  utilities,  supplies,  advertising,  insurance,
property taxes  and rents.   The Company's food, beverage, payroll and
benefit costs are believed to be higher than the industry average as a
percentage of  sales as  a  result  of  the  Company's  philosophy  of
providing customers  with high  value of  food and  service for  every
dollar a  customer spends.   In  total, food and beverage, payroll and
benefits, depreciation  and amortization  and other operating expenses
as a  percentage of  sales increased to 89.0% in the second quarter of
1997, from  86.2% in  the same  quarter of  1996, primarily  due to an
increase in payroll and benefits costs as a percentage of sales.


     Food and  beverage costs  as a  percentage of  sales increased to
39.5% in  the second  quarter of 1997 from 39.0% in the same period of
1996, primarily due to an upgrade in variety and cost of the Company's
buffet menu.

      Payroll and benefits as a percentage of sales increased to 29.1%
in the  second quarter of 1997 from 27.6% in the same quarter of 1996,
primarily due  to the  decrease in same-store sales, which resulted in
reduced efficiencies in labor scheduling.

       Other  operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased to
15.9% in  the second quarter of 1997 from 15.4% in 1996, primarily due
to the  decline in  same-store sales.  Depreciation  and  amortization
increased as  a percentage  of sales  in the  second quarter  of  1997
compared to  1996, as  a result of additions to property and equipment
over the last 12 months, and due to the decline in same-store sales.

     General and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were
7.9% in  the second  quarter of  1997, compared  to 6.1%  in the  same
quarter of 1996. The increase was due to costs incurred in response to
the Bisco  takeover  attempt  (see  "Recent  Developments").  Interest
expense increased  to $398,400  during the second quarter of 1997 from
$384,500 in  1996. The  increase was  due primarily  to interest  cost
asssociated with a new restaurant opened in January 1997.

     The effective  income tax  rates for  the quarters  ended July 2,
1997 and July 3, 1996 were (20.0%) and 17.8%, respectively.

     Net loss for the second quarter of 1997 was $254,100, compared to
net   earnings of  $192,300 in 1996. Loss per share was $.02 for 1997,
compared to earnings per share of $.02 in 1996. The loss in the second
quarter was  primarily due  to the  costs associated  with  the  Bisco
takeover attempt, and to the decline in same-store sales.

Six Months Ended July 2, 1997 versus July 3, 1996

     For the  six months ended July 2, 1997, total sales decreased .8%
compared to  the same  period of 1996. Same-store sales decreased 7.0%
for the  six months  ended  July  2,  1997.  Management  believes  the
decrease was primarily due to increased competition.

     Food and  beverage costs  for the  six month period ended July 2,
1997 was 39.1%, compared to 39.5% for the same period in 1996. Payroll
and benefits  increased from  27.2% in  1996 to  28.2%  in  1997.  The
increase was  primarily due to the decrease in same-store sales, which
resulted in decreased efficiencies in labor scheduling.

     For the  six months  ended July 2, 1997, other operating expenses
increased to 15.1% from 14.9% in 1996, primarily due to the decline in
same-store  sales.   Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  as  a
percentage of  sales for  the six  month period  ended July  2,  1997,
compared to  the same period of 1996, due to additions to property and
equipment over the past year and the decline in same-store sales.





     For the six months ended July 2, 1997, general and administrative
expenses increased  to 6.7%  of sales from 5.8% for the same period in
1996 due  to the  costs associated  with the  Bisco takeover  attempt.
Interest expense  increased for  the  first  six  months  of  1997  to
$788,900 from  $775,500 for the same period in 1996, due to additional
interest cost from the addition of a new restaurant in January 1997.

     The effective  income tax  rates for  the six-month periods ended
July 2, 1997 and July 3, 1996 were 20.1% and 16.1% respectively.

     Net earnings  for the  six months ended July 2, 1997 were $98,700
or $.01  per share,  compared to net earnings of $453,400, or $.04 per
share for the same period in 1996.

     The  Company's   operations  are   subject   to   some   seasonal
fluctuations.  Revenues per restaurant generally increase from January
through April  and decline from September through December.  Operating
results for  the quarter  ended  July  2,  1997  are  not  necessarily
indicative of  the results  that may  be expected  for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1997.

Recent Developments

     In May  1997, the  Company signed  a letter of intent to purchase
land on  which the  Company  intends  to  construct  its  26th  Ryan's
restaurant. The purchase of the property is contingent upon completion
of due  diligence by  the Company  regarding the  suitability  of  the
property for  construction. The Company expects to open the restaurant
in the first quarter of 1998.

     On March 6, 1997, Bisco Industries, Inc. ("Bisco"), a shareholder
of the  Company, launched  an unsolicited  tender  offer  designed  to
acquire approximately 24% of the Company's common stock. If the tender
offer is  successful, Bisco  and its  affiliates will  own a  total of
approximately 34%  of the  Company's  outstanding  common  stock.  The
tender offer  is subject to a number of conditions, including the non-
applicability of a Florida law which restricts a shareholder's ability
to vote  the Company's  shares if the shareholder acquires 20% or more
of  the  Company's  outstanding  shares,  unless  a  majority  of  the
Company's  shareholders   agree  to   grant  voting   rights  to  this
shareholder.

     On April  30, 1997,  Bisco filed a Consent Solicitation Statement
requesting that  the Company's shareholders approve several amendments
to the Company's bylaws designed to allow Bisco to complete its tender
offer.  Bisco   failed  to   obtain  the   necessary   consents   from
shareholders, and the solicitation deadline expired on June 30, 1997.

     The Company's  Board of  Directors opposes the Bisco tender offer
and opposed  the  Bisco  consent  solicitation,  and  has  implemented
several  measures  designed  to  protect  the  Company's  shareholders
against the potential adverse effects of an unsolicited takeover.






     As of  July 11,  1997, approximately  2.4 million  shares of  the
Company's common  stock had  been tendered  to Bisco. On July 11, 1997
Bisco announced  that it  was extending the tender offer until October
31, 1997.  If the  Bisco tender  offer is  successful,  management  is
uncertain of  the impact on the Company's future operations. Bisco has
detailed several possible actions they might take if successful in the
tender  offer,   including  disposing   of  the  Company's  restaurant
operations.

     On July  24,  1997,  Bisco  notified  the  Company  that  it  was
demanding a  special meeting of shareholders be called for the purpose
of voting  on Bisco  sponsored resolutions to: (i) amend the Company's
bylaws to  require that  the Board  of Directors  redeem the Company's
Shareholder Rights  Plan and prohibit the adoption of similar plans in
the future  without shareholder  approval, (ii)  amend  the  Company's
bylaws to  opt out  of the Florida Control Share Act, and remove three
outside directors and replace them with Bisco nominees. The Company is
currently considering  whether Bisco's demand for a special meeting of
shareholders is  lawful. If  the Bisco  proposals are  adopted by  the
Company's  shareholders,   Bisco  would  effectively  obtain  complete
control of the Company.

Possible Delisting of Securities from The Nasdaq Stock Market.

     The Company's  common stock  is currently  quoted on  the  Nasdaq
National Market.  On November  6, 1996,  the  Nasdaq  National  Market
proposed changes  to the  listing and  maintenance requirements  which
were submitted  to the  Securities and  Exchange Commission  for final
approval on  February 28,  1997. If  the current  proposal is approved
without  modification,   the  Company's  qualification  for  continued
listing on  the Nasdaq  National Market  would require  that  (i)  the
Company maintain  at least  $4.0 million  in net tangible assets, (ii)
the minimum  bid price of the Common Stock be $1.00 or more per share,
(iii) there  be at least 750,000 shares in the public float, valued at
a minimum  $5.0 million  or more,  (iv) the Common Stock have at least
two active  market makers and (v) the Common Stock be held by at least
400 holders.

     If the  Company is unable to satisfy the Nasdaq National Market's
maintenance requirements,  the Company's  securities may  be  delisted
from the  Nasdaq National  Market. In  such event, trading, if any, in
the Common Stock would thereafter be conducted in the over-the-counter
markets in  the so-called "pink sheets" or the National Association of
Securities Dealers,  Inc.'s "Electronic Bulletin Board". Consequently,
the liquidity  of the Company's securities could be impaired, not only
in the  number of  shares that  could be  bought and  sold,  but  also
through delays  in the  timing of the transactions, a reduction in the
number and quality of security analysis' and the news media's coverage
of the  Company, lower  prices for the Company's securities than might
otherwise be attained and in a larger spread between the bid and asked
prices for the Company's securities.







     In addition,  the Company's  securities were  to be delisted from
the Nasdaq  National Market,  the Company's  securities  could  become
subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act relating to penny stocks,
which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers
which sell such securities to persons other than established customers
and "accredited  investors" ( generally, individuals with net worth in
excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000
together with  their spouses).  Commission regulations define a "penny
stock" to  be any  equity security  that is  not listed  on The Nasdaq
Stock Market  or a  national securities exchange and that has a market
price (as  therein defined)  of less  than $5.00  per share or with an
exercise price  of less  than $5.00  per  share,  subject  to  certain
exceptions. If  the Company's  securities were subject to the rules on
penny stocks,  the market liquidity for the Company's securities could
be adversely affected.

     The Company's stock has consistently had a bid price of less than
$1.00 in  recent years. If the proposed NASDAQ regulations are adopted
(as expected  by NASDAQ),  the Company's  stock  could  be  "delisted"
approximately six months after the effective date of adoption.

     Management is  evaluating options  to maintain its listing on the
NASDAQ National  Market. However,  there can  be no assurance that the
Company's stock will be traded on this market after January 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from cash
sales.   Inventories are purchased on credit and are converted rapidly
to  cash.     Therefore,   the  Company  does  not  carry  significant
receivables or inventories.  As a result, working capital requirements
for continuing operations are not significant.

     At July  2, 1997,  the Company  had a  working capital deficit of
$277,600, compared to a working capital deficit of $616,800 at January
1, 1997.  The decrease in the working capital deficit during the first
six months  in 1997  was due  primarily to  the reclassification  of a
mortgage receivable from long-term to current.

     Cash provided  by operating activities decreased to $1,151,800 in
the first  six months  of 1997  from $1,769,500  in the same period of
1996. This  decrease is  primarily due  to lower  net earnings, and to
increases in  certain current assets as a result of timing differences
in transactions which occurred in 1997.

       The  Company spent  approximately $1,436,500  in the  first six
months of  1997 for  restaurant equipment  and  improvements.  Capital
expenditures for  1997 and  1998, based on present costs and plans for
expansion, are  estimated to  be $3,100,000  (not including the sales-
leaseback financing  for the  new restaurant  as discussed  above) and
$4,100,000 respectively. The Company projects that cash generated from
operations will be sufficient to fund these improvements.






     In December  1996, the Company entered into a $15.36 million Loan
Agreement with  FFCA Mortgage Corporation ("FFCA"). The Loan Agreement
governs eighteen  Promissory Notes  payable  to  FFCA.  Each  Note  is
secured by a mortgage on a Company restaurant property. The Promissory
Notes provide for a term of twenty years and an interest rate equal to
the thirty-day  LIBOR rate  plus 3.75%,  adjusted  monthly.  The  Loan
Agreement provides for various covenants, including the maintenance of
prescribed debt service coverages. As of July 2, 1997, the outstanding
balance due under the loan was $15,226,700.

     The Company  used the  proceeds of  the FFCA  loan to  retire its
Notes with Cerberus Partners, L.P. ("Cerberus") and its loans with the
Daiwa Bank  Limited and  SouthTrust Bank  of Alabama, N.A. The Company
realized a discount on the retirement of the Cerberus Notes, which was
partially offset  by unamortized  debt issuance  costs. The  resulting
gain of  $348,500, net  of income  taxes, has been accounted for as an
extraordinary item  1n 1996. In addition, the Company retired Warrants
for 1,050,000  shares of the Company's common stock previously held by
Cerberus. Cerberus  continues to  hold Warrants  to  purchase  700,000
shares of  the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $.40 per
share.

     Also in  December 1996,  the Company entered into a separate loan
agreement with  FFCA under  which it  may borrow  up to  an additional
$4,640,000 in  1997. This  additional financing  would be evidenced by
four additional  Promissory Notes secured by mortgages on four Company
restaurant properties. The terms and conditions of this loan agreement
are substantially  identical to  those of the loan agreement described
above. In July 1997, the Company made an agreement with FFCA extending
the expiration date of funding for the agreement through June 1998.

Impact of Inflation

     Costs of food, beverage, and labor are the expenses most affected
by inflation  in the  Company's business.   Although inflation has not
had a  significant impact  on the Company in the past, there can be no
assurance that  it will  not in the future.   A significant portion of
the  Company's   employees  are  paid  at  the  federally  established
statutory minimum  wage. On  August 8,  1996, President Clinton signed
into law  a bill  which will raise the federally mandated minimum wage
by $.50  per hour  on October  1, 1996,  and by an additional $.40 per
hour on September 1, 1997.

     The Company  raised sales  prices approximately  3.0% in  1996 in
order to  offset the effect of higher payroll and benefit costs. Sales
prices have  not been  increased to  date in 1997, but the Company may
raise sales  prices in  response to  the September  1997 minimum  wage
increase.



PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

          On May 13, 1997, the Company received notice from Aetna Life
          Insurance Company,  the mortgage  holder of  the property at
          which  the   Company's  Clearwater,  Florida  restaurant  is
          located, that  Aetna intended  to foreclose  on the property
          and terminate  the Company's  lease due  to a default by the
          landlord on the mortgage. In July 1997, Aetna filed a Motion
          for Summary  Judgment of  Foreclosure with the Circuit Court
          of the 6th Judicial Court in Pinellas County. Should Aetna's
          motion be  granted, the Company would be forced to close the
          restaurant  and   would  realize  a  loss  of  approximately
          $372,000 on  the write-off  of leasehold improvements at the
          Clearwater  location.  The  Company  intends  to  vigorously
          defend its  interest in  the  foreclosure  action.  However,
          there  can   be  no  assurance  that  the  Company  will  be
          successful in this defense.

ITEM 4.   SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

          (a)  On July 2, 1997, the Company held its annual meeting of
               shareholders  to  elect  directors  to  serve  for  the

          (b)  The following  table sets forth the number of votes for
               and against each of the nominees for director.

          vote of  a majority of the 9,058,596 shares of the Company's
          common stock represented in person or by proxy at the annual
          meeting of shareholders.

          (c)  The following table sets forth the number of votes for,
               against or withheld, and number of abstentions and non-
               votes, regarding the following proposals;




          1)   Proposal to  increase the  Company's authorized  common
               shares:

               For            Against        Abstain        Non-Votes
