You may want to verify this, but my son is two and I have had to pay 50 cents per year for him to eat at Tallianos, so about a buck. I have never taken him there and had him eat for free.
Thank you for letting us know, Anaidy. We do verify everything before we share it, but maybe there was some miscommunication. I’m going to err on the side of caution and change it now, then we’ll double-check it with the restaurant. Thanks again!
I may have overlooked this one, but McAllister’s offers kids meals for .99 if you dine in. And 2.49 for take out. We feed a family of 5 for under $30 at McAllister’s.

It’s probably time for another update. It’s just so time-intensive calling all the places. I appreciate the information.
