 BISCO INDUSTRIES EXTENDS TO MAY 23, 1997 THE EXPIRATION DATE OF
  ITS TENDER OFFER FOR SHARES OF FAMILY STEAK HOUSES OF FLORIDA
  
  Orange, California, May 12, 1997 - Bisco Industries, Inc., a
privately   held   distributor  of   fasteners   and   electronic
components,  announced today that it has extended to  5:00  P.M.,
New  York City time, on Friday, May 23, 1997, the expiration date
of  its  tender offer to purchase for cash up to 2,600,000 shares
of common stock of Family Steak Houses of Florida, Inc. (NASDAQ
RYFL) for $0.90 per share.

  As  of  5:00  p.m. on May 9, 1997, the originally  scheduled
expiration  date, 2,220,456 shares had been tendered pursuant  to
the offer.

  Glen  Ceiley, President and CEO of Bisco Industries,  stated
that  "Family  Steak  House management continues  to  resist  our
offer,  despite the fact that over 2.2 million shares  have  been
tendered.  Because of the anti-takeover measures recently adopted
by the Company's Board of Directors, the conditions to our tender
offer  haven't yet been satisfied.  We recently began  soliciting
shareholder  consents to several proposals, including elimination
of the  Company's  Poison  Pill.  We  are  gratified  by   the
shareholder  response  to date to our consent  solicitation.  We
hope  that  before May 23rd we will be able to present the  Board
the  successful results of our consent solicitation, and that the
Board will  promptly  take action to  redeem  the  Poison  Pill,
clearing the way for us to complete our tender offer on  the  new
expiration date."
