                       LONE STAR STEAKHOUSE & SALOON, INC.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 Article
10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly,  they 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,  which Lone Star Steakhouse & Saloon, Inc. (the
"Company") considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position
and the results of operations for the periods presented have been included.  The
results for the  thirty-six  weeks ended  September 6, 2005 are not  necessarily
indicative  of the results to be expected for the full year ending  December 27,
2005. This quarterly  report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited consolidated financial statements in its annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 28, 2004.

     Certain  amounts for the prior year have been  reclassified to conform with
the current year's presentation.

2.   RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     In December  2004, the Company  commenced a review of its lease  accounting
and leasehold  depreciation  policies.  As a result of that review,  the Company
determined  it  appropriate  to  restate  its prior  financial  statements.  The
information  for the twelve weeks and the  thirty-six  weeks ended  September 7,
2004,  has  been  restated  to  reflect   depreciation  for  certain   leasehold
improvements  and to recognize  rent  expense on a straight  line basis over the
expected lease term,  including renewal option periods where failure to exercise
such options would result in an economic  penalty to the Company.  See Note 1 to
the  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  in the  Company's  2004  Form 10-K for
further discussion.

3.   EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Basic earnings per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average
number of shares  outstanding  during  the  periods.  For  purposes  of  diluted
computations,  average  shares  outstanding  have been  adjusted  to  reflect in
accordance with the treasury stock method (1) the number of shares that would be
issued from the exercise of stock options, reduced by the number of shares which
could have been  purchased  from the proceeds at the average market price of the
Company's  stock or price of the Company's stock on the exercise date if options
were exercised during the period presented and (2) the number of shares that may
be  issuable  to  effect  the  settlement  of  certain   deferred   compensation
liabilities  pursuant to the Company's Stock Option Deferred  Compensation Plan.
In addition, for purposes of diluted computations,  net income has been adjusted
for all periods  presented to reflect the  dilutive  effect on net income of the
assumed settlement of certain deferred compensation liabilities.

4.   TERM REVOLVER

     The Company has an unsecured  revolving  credit  agreement  with a group of
banks led by SunTrust Bank. The credit  facility allows the Company to borrow up
to $30,000 with an accordian  feature  permitting  for an increase in the credit
facility  in an amount up to  $20,000  such that the total  amount of the credit
facility does not exceed  $50,000.  The  additional  borrowing is subject to the
approval  of the  lenders.  The credit  agreement  terminates  in October  2007;
however,  it is subject to  acceleration  in the event of a change of control of
the Company as that term is defined in the credit agreement. At the time of each
borrowing,  the  Company  may elect to pay  interest  at the higher of  SunTrust
Bank's  published  prime rate or the  Federal  Funds Rate plus  one-half  of one
percent (0.50%);  or the LIBOR rate plus one and one-half  percent (1.50%).  The
Company is required to achieve certain  financial ratios and to maintain certain
net worth  requirements  as  defined  in the credit  agreement.  The  Company is
required to pay on a quarterly  basis a facility  fee equal to .25% per annum on
the daily  unused  amount of the credit  facility.  At  September 6, 2005 and at
December  28,  2004,  there  were no  borrowings  outstanding  under the  credit
facility.

     The Company also has entered into a $5,000  revolving  term loan  agreement
with a bank, under which no borrowings were outstanding at September 6, 2005 and
December 28, 2004. The term loan agreement matures in October 2007. The interest
rate is at .50%  below the daily  prime  rate as  published  in the Wall  Street
Journal.  In addition,  the Company pays a facility fee of .25% per annum on the
daily unused portion of the credit facility.

5.   COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS

     The Board of  Directors  has from time to time  authorized  the  Company to
purchase shares of the Company's common stock in the open market or in privately
negotiated  transactions.  The Company  made no  purchases  of its common  stock
during the  thirty-six  weeks ended  September  6, 2005.  The Company  purchased
670,300 shares of its common stock during the thirty-six  weeks ended  September
7, 2004.  The Company is  accounting  for any purchases  using the  constructive
retirement method of accounting  wherein the aggregate par value of the stock is
charged to the  common  stock  account  and the excess of cost over par value is
charged to paid-in capital. At September 6, 2005, the Company may purchase up to
2,026,190  shares of its common stock pursuant to its current  authorization  by
the Board of Directors.

     During the thirty-six  weeks ended September 6, 2005, the Company  received
net proceeds of $2,038 from the  issuance of 198,686  shares of its common stock
due to the  exercise  of  stock  options.  During  the  thirty-six  weeks  ended
September 7, 2004, the Company received net proceeds of $5,855 from the issuance
of 689,565  shares of its common stock in connection  with the exercise of stock
options.

     In September 2002, the Company adopted a Stock Option Deferred Compensation
Plan (the "Plan"),  which allows  certain key  executives to defer  compensation
arising from the exercise of stock  options  granted  under the  Company's  1992
Incentive and  Nonqualified  Stock Option Plan. In fiscal 2003,  pursuant to the
terms of the Plan  relating  to the  exercise  of  certain  stock  options  by a
participant,  the Company  issued  177,145 shares to a Rabbi trust (the "Trust")
with Intrust Bank, NA serving as the trustee. The Trust holds the shares for the
benefit of the participating employees ("Participants").  Under the terms of the
Plan,  Participants may elect to change the Plan's investments from time to time
which may result in the sale of the  shares.  Since the shares held by the Trust
are held pursuant to a deferred compensation  arrangement whereby amounts earned
by an  employee  are  invested  in the stock of the  employer  and placed in the
Trust,  the Company  accounts for the arrangement as required by Emerging Issues
Task Force  ("EITF")  consensus  on Issue No.  97-14,  ACCOUNTING  FOR  DEFERRED
COMPENSATION  ARRANGEMENTS  WHERE  AMOUNTS  EARNED ARE HELD IN A RABBI TRUST AND
INVESTED  ("EITF  No.  97-14").  Accordingly,  shares  issued to the Trust  were
recorded at fair market value at the date issued by the Company in the amount of
$3,663,  which is reflected in the accompanying  Condensed  Consolidated Balance
Sheets as Common Stock Held By Trust. The  corresponding  amount was credited to
deferred  compensation  obligations.  Each period, the shares owned by the Trust
are  valued at the  closing  market  price,  with  corresponding  changes in the
underlying  shares being  reflected as adjustments to  compensation  expense and


                                      -8-


deferred compensation obligations.  At September 6, 2005, the Trust held 177,145
shares of the Company's  common stock.  Included in non-cash stock  compensation
expense for the twelve weeks ended September 6, 2005 and September 7, 2004 was a
credit of ($758) and  ($379),  respectively,  relating  to the changes in market
price for such shares.  The charges  (credits)  for the  thirty-six  weeks ended
September 6, 2005 and September 7, 2004 were ($105) and $175, respectively.

6.   ACQUISITIONS

     On January  28,  2004,  the  Company's  Joint Plan of  Reorganization  (the
"Plan") to purchase  TX.C.C.,  Inc. and affiliated  entities,  TXCC-Preston  and
TXLC-Albuquerque,  (collectively,  "TXCC") was  confirmed  by the United  States
Bankruptcy  Court for the  District of Texas,  Dallas  Division  and the Company
acquired  100% of  TXCC  on that  date.  The  Company's  consolidated  financial
statements  include  TXCC's  results of operations  from January 28, 2004.  TXCC
presently  operates 20 Texas Land & Cattle Steak  House(R)  restaurants  located
primarily  in Texas.  The  acquisition  of TXCC allows the Company to expand its
steakhouse  concepts,  provides strategic growth opportunities and significantly
increases  its  presence  in  the  Texas  market.  Pursuant  to  the  Plan,  the
pre-petition  creditors at their option were entitled to receive  either cash or
common  stock of Lone Star  Steakhouse  & Saloon,  Inc. in  settlement  of their
claims.  The aggregate  purchase price was $23,496 and consisted of cash, shares
of the Company's  common stock and the  assumption of certain  liabilities.  The
cash portion of the  acquisition  was funded from the  Company's  existing  cash
balances. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued an aggregate of
119,485  shares of its common stock valued at $2,679.  Pro forma results  giving
effect to the  acquisition  of TXCC are not  presented  for the  periods as such
amounts are not significant.

     In May 2005,  the Company  acquired  for $1,200 in cash the  remaining  40%
interest of certain  limited  partners in  TXCC-Preston,  L.P., a Texas  limited
partnership in which the Company owned a 60% interest.  The limited partnerships
owned two of the TXCC restaurants which were operated by the Company.

7.   DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     The Company  accounts for its closed  restaurants  in  accordance  with the
Provisions  of SFAS No.  144,  ACCOUNTING  FOR THE  IMPAIRMENT  OR  DISPOSAL  OF
LONG-LIVED ASSETS.  Therefore, when a restaurant is closed and the restaurant is
either held for sale or abandoned,  the  restaurant's  operations are eliminated
from ongoing operations. Accordingly, the operations of such restaurants, net of
applicable  income taxes,  are presented as  discontinued  operations  and prior
period  consolidated  financial  statements  are  reclassified.  The table below
reflects as discontinued  operations the applicable  operations of the Company's
Australian business and certain other domestic restaurants closed which meet the
criteria for such presentation.

8.   INCOME TAX

     The  effective  income tax rate from  continuing  operations  was 33.8% and
32.1% for the  twelve  weeks  ended  September  6, 2005 and  September  7, 2004,
respectively,  and 33.7% and 32.6% for the thirty-six  weeks ended  September 6,
2005 and September 7, 2004, respectively.  The factors which cause the effective
tax rates to vary from the federal  statutory  rate of 35% include  state income
taxes,  the  impact  of  FICA  Tip and  other  credits,  certain  non-deductible
expenses,  and the tax effect of incentive stock options.  There is generally no


                                      -9-


tax impact to the  Company  associated  with  incentive  stock  options  and the
related  compensation  associated  with such  options in the  income  statement.
However,  tax benefits may arise related to the  incentive  stock options at the
time the options are  exercised to the extent that the exercise is followed by a
disqualifying  disposition of the shares by the optionee. The 2004 effective tax
rates  reflect  a greater  amount of tax  benefits  arising  from  disqualifying
dispositions of incentive stock options as compared to 2005.

9.   LITIGATION

     On August 15, 2005,  the Company  received an Order and Final Judgment from
the Court of Chancery of the state of Delaware  relating to the  Stipulation  of
Settlement of the class action and derivative  lawsuit brought by the California
Public  Employees   Retirement  System  ("CalPERS")  against  the  Company.  The
settlement  resolves  all  claims  raised  by  the  parties  in  litigation.  In
connection  with the  settlement,  the parties agreed to release each other from
any and all current and future claims related to the litigation.  As part of the
settlement,  certain of the Company's  current and former Directors agreed to an
upward  repricing of certain stock  options or  personally  make payments to the
Company as additional  proceeds in connection  with certain  options  previously
exercised.  In addition,  the Company's insurance provider made a payment in the
amount of $3,000 under the Company's Directors, Officers and Corporate insurance
policy of which $2,500 was awarded for attorneys' fees and expenses on behalf of
CalPERS.  The remaining $500 was paid to the Company for  reimbursement of legal
costs and expenses and is included in general and administrative expenses in the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

     The aggregate  effect of the repricing  provisions of the  settlement  will
result in  additional  proceeds  to the Company of  approximately  $4,700 if all
options are ultimately exercised. The Company received $115 in cash from certain
Directors  which  represented   additional   proceeds  from  options  previously
exercised and  accordingly,  such amounts were  recorded as  Additional  Paid-in
Capital.  The upward  repricing of the  remaining  stock  options will result in
additional  proceeds  when the options are  exercised  which will be credited to
Additional Paid-in Capital. In connection with the upward repricing of the stock
options,  the Company  recorded a charge to  Additional  Paid-in  Capital in the
amount of $1,744 to  reflect a  reduction  of the  related  deferred  tax assets
applicable to such repricing.

10.  HURRICANE RELATED COSTS

     In connection  with disaster  relief for the victims of Hurricane  Katrina,
the Company  donated to the American  Red Cross an amount of $1,853.  The amount
donated was 100% of its restaurant sales on Labor Day, September 5, 2005.

     In  addition,  the  Company  provided  $800 as a  casualty  loss  provision
associated with its  restaurants  which were damaged by Hurricane  Katrina.  The
principal  amount of such losses relate to estimated  property damages for which
insurance  recoveries  will not be  available  due to  limitations  of insurance
deductible amounts.

11.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On October 4, 2005, the Board of Directors declared the Company's quarterly
cash dividend of $.195 per share  payable  October 28, 2005 to  shareholders  of
record on October 14, 2005.

                       LONE STAR STEAKHOUSE & SALOON, INC.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
             (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

GENERAL

     The following  discussion and analysis  should be read in conjunction  with
the  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  including the notes thereto
included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
     The Company opened one restaurant in each of thirty-six  week periods ended
September  6, 2005 and  September 7, 2004.  In June 2005,  a domestic  Lone Star
restaurant was destroyed by fire.
     There were 251 operating  domestic Lone Star restaurants as of September 6,
2005  including  three  restaurants  in New Orleans,  temporarily  closed due to
Hurricane  Katrina.  These  restaurants will not likely be repaired and reopened
until 2006.  In addition,  a licensee  operates  four Lone Star  restaurants  in
California.
     The  Company  currently  operates  five Del  Frisco's  Double  Eagle  ("Del
Frisco's")  restaurants.  In  addition,  a licensee  operates  one Del  Frisco's
restaurant.   The   Company   currently   operates  15   Sullivan's   Steakhouse
("Sullivan's")  restaurants,  20 Texas Land and Cattle Steak  House(R)  ("TXCC")
restaurants and one Frankie's Italian Grille restaurant.
     Internationally,  licensees  operate  12  Lone  Star  Steakhouse  &  Saloon
restaurants in Australia and one in Guam.
     On January 28, 2004,  the Company  acquired 20 TXCC  restaurants  which are
located  primarily in Texas.  The  operating  results of those  restaurants  are
included  in the  Company's  consolidated  operating  results  from  the date of
acquisition.

RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     In December  2004, the Company  commenced a review of its lease  accounting
and leasehold  depreciation  policies.  As a result of that review,  the Company
determined  it  appropriate  to  restate  its prior  financial  statements.  The
information  for the twelve weeks and thirty-six  weeks ended September 7, 2004,
has been restated to reflect depreciation for certain leasehold improvements and
to recognize rent expense on a straight line basis over the expected lease term,
including  renewal  option  periods where failure to exercise such options would
result  in an  economic  penalty.  See  Note  1 to  the  Consolidated  Financial
Statements in the Company's 2004 Form 10-K for further discussion.

LONE STAR STEAKHOUSE & SALOON, INC.

       TWELVE WEEKS ENDED SEPTEMBER 6, 2005 COMPARED TO TWELVE WEEKS ENDED
   SEPTEMBER 7, 2004 (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)


     Net sales  increased  $757 or 0.5% to $148,802  for the twelve  weeks ended
September 6, 2005,  compared to $148,045 for the twelve weeks ended September 7,
2004. The Company's blended same store sales,  representing net sales, by store,
for all the Company owned restaurant  concepts opened for more than 18 months in
the current and  comparable  prior year period  increased  0.4%.  The  Company's
average check increased 1.9% and guest counts decreased 1.4%.
     Costs of sales, primarily food and beverages,  decreased as a percentage of
net sales to 34.8% from 36.7% due  primarily to decreased  costs for beef partly
offset by  increased  costs for  seafood  items as a result  of  changes  in the
menu-mix.
     Restaurant  operating expenses for the twelve weeks ended September 6, 2005
increased  $6,258 to $78,405  compared  to $72,147 in the prior year  period and
increased  as a  percentage  of net  sales  to 52.7%  from  48.7%.  Labor  costs
increased 1.2% primarily as the result of increased  management  staffing at the
restaurants.  Advertising  costs increased 1.2% as the result of increased media
print costs related to direct  marketing.  Building  maintenance costs increased
.6% and  utility  costs,  primarily  for  electricity,  increased  .3%.  Remodel
expenses increased .2%.
     Depreciation  and  amortization  decreased  $161 for the twelve weeks ended
September 6, 2005 compared with the prior period.  The decrease is  attributable
to the continued  reduction in depreciation  for certain assets that have become
fully  depreciated  for the  Company's  historical  concepts.  This  decrease is
partially offset by the depreciation of assets related to the TXCC acquisition.
     General and  administrative  expenses  decreased  $846 for the twelve weeks
ended September 6, 2005 compared to the prior period. General and administrative
expense reflects a decrease in bonus compensation expense and professional fees.
In  addition,  general  and  administrative  expenses  were lower as a result of
approximately  $500  received from an insurance  company in connection  with the
settlement of the CalPERS litigation against the Company.
     Hurricane  disaster relief donation for the twelve weeks ended September 6,
2005 reflects the Company's contribution to the American Red Cross in connection
with disaster relief for the victims of Hurricane  Katrina.  The Company donated
100% of its restaurant sales of $1,853 on Labor Day, September 5, 2005.
     Provision  for casualty  loss for the twelve weeks ended  September 6, 2005
reflects the Company's  estimate of losses associated with its restaurants which
were damaged by Hurricane Katrina. The principal amount of such losses relate to
estimated property damages for which insurance  recoveries will not be available
due to limitations of insurance deductible amounts.
     Non-cash stock compensation expense for the twelve weeks ended September 6,
2005 was $36 compared to a credit of $290 for the prior year period.  The change
reflects  an  increase  of $705  related  to the  amortization  of  stock  based
compensation  in 2005 compared to 2004,  reflecting  the impact of stock options
granted in December 2004 and during 2005. The increase is partially offset by an
increase in the credit  arising from the  accounting  for certain  shares of the
Company's common stock held by a Rabbi Trust pursuant to a deferred compensation
arrangement  (See Note 5 to Condensed  Financial  Statements)  as the credit was
$758 for 2005 compared to $379 in the prior year.
      Other  income,  net for the twelve weeks ended  September 6, 2005 was $584
compared to $787 for the prior year. The decrease for 2005 primarily  reflects a
reduction from gains on sale of assets as compared to 2004.
     The  effective  income tax rate from  continuing  operations  was 33.8% and
32.1% for the  twelve  weeks  ended  September  6, 2005 and  September  7, 2004,
respectively.  The factors  which cause the effective tax rates to vary from the
federal statutory rate of 35% include state income taxes, the impact of FICA Tip
and  other  credits,  certain  non-deductible  expenses  and the tax  effect  of


                                      -13-


incentive  stock  options.  There is  generally  no tax  impact  to the  Company
associated with incentive stock options and the related compensation  associated
with such options in the income  statement.  However,  tax benefits may arise at
the time  incentive  options are  exercised  to the extent that the  exercise is
followed by a disqualifying  disposition of the shares by the optionee. The 2004
period reflects a greater amount of tax benefits associated with the impact from
the exercise of incentive stock options as compared to 2005.
      Discontinued  operations  reflect the  operations  of  restaurants  closed
subsequent  to fiscal 2002 which are  required  to be  reported as  discontinued
operations  pursuant  to SFAS No.  144  (see  Note 7 to the  Notes to  Condensed
Consolidated Statements).

            (DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)


     Net sales  increased  $3,566 or 0.8% to $467,737 for the  thirty-six  weeks
ended  September 6, 2005,  compared to $464,171 for the  thirty-six  weeks ended
September  7, 2004.  Sales for the  thirty-six  weeks  ended  September  6, 2005
include  thirty-six  weeks of sales for TXCC  compared with the prior period for
fiscal 2004 which includes sales of TXCC covering a thirty-two week period.  The
Company's  blended same store sales,  representing  net sales, by store, for all
the  Company  owned  restaurant  concepts  opened for more than 18 months in the
current and comparable prior year period  decreased 0.5%. The Company's  average
check increased 2.4% and guest counts decreased 2.9%.
     Costs of sales, primarily food and beverages,  decreased as a percentage of
net sales to 34.8% from 36.2% due  primarily to decreased  costs for beef partly
offset by  increased  costs for  seafood  items as a result  of  changes  in the
menu-mix.
     Restaurant  operating  expenses for the thirty-six weeks ended September 6,
2005 increased $9,733 to $229,094  compared to $219,361 in the prior year period
and  increased  as a  percentage  of net sales to 49.0% from 47.3%.  Labor costs
increased  .8% primarily as the result of increased  management  staffing at the
restaurants.   Advertising  costs  increased  .2%.  Building  maintenance  costs
increased .4% and utility costs increased .2%. Remodel  expenses  increased .1%.
The increases were partially offset by a decrease in certain insurance costs and
a decrease in preopening expenses.
     Depreciation and amortization decreased $652 for the thirty-six weeks ended
September 6, 2005 compared with the prior period.  The decrease is  attributable
to the continued  reduction in depreciation  for certain assets that have become
fully  depreciated  for the  Company's  historical  concepts.  This  decrease is
partially offset by the depreciation of assets related to the TXCC acquisition.
     General and administrative expenses increased $571 for the thirty-six weeks
ended September 6, 2005 compared to the prior period. General and administrative
expenses reflect an increase of approximately  $300 for increases related to the
TXCC  acquisition for the additional four week period included in fiscal 2005 as
compared with the prior period. In addition,  general and  administrative  costs
reflect higher travel  expenses,  increased  Sarbanes-Oxley  compliance costs as
well as increased costs for legal services.  The increases are offset in part by
approximately  $500  received from an insurance  company in connection  with the
settlement of the CalPERS litigation against the Company.
     Hurricane disaster relief donation for the thirty-six weeks ended September
6,  2005  reflects  the  Company's  contribution  to the  American  Red Cross in
connection  with  disaster  relief for the  victims of  Hurricane  Katrina.  The


                                      -14-


Company donated 100% of its restaurant  sales of $1,853 on Labor Day,  September
5, 2005.
     Provision for casualty  loss for the  thirty-six  weeks ended  September 6,
2005 reflects the Company's  estimate of losses  associated with its restaurants
which were damaged by Hurricane  Katrina.  The  principal  amount of such losses
relate to estimated property damages for which insurance  recoveries will not be
available due to limitations of insurance deductible amounts.
     Non-cash  stock  compensation   expense  for  the  thirty-six  weeks  ended
September  6, 2005 was $1,677  compared to $505 for the prior year  period.  The
change is primarily  attributable  to an increase in the  amortization  of stock
compensation  expense in 2005 compared to 2004,  reflecting  the impact of stock
options  granted in December 2004 and during 2005. In addition,  the 2005 period
includes a credit of $105  compared to a charge of $175 in the prior year period
relating to the accounting for certain shares of the Company's common stock held
by a Rabbi Trust pursuant to a deferred compensation  arrangement (See Note 5 to
the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).
      Other income,  net for the  thirty-six  weeks ended  September 6, 2005 was
$785 compared to $814 for the prior year.  The decrease in other income  results
primarily  from a  decrease  in gains on sale of assets in 2005 as  compared  to
2004.
     The  effective  income tax rate from  continuing  operations  was 33.7% and
32.6% for the  thirty-six  weeks ended  September 6, 2005 and September 7, 2004,
respectively.  The factors  which cause the effective tax rates to vary from the
federal statutory rate of 35% include state income taxes, the impact of FICA Tip
and  other  credits,  certain  non-deductible  expenses  and the tax  effect  of
incentive  stock  options.  There is  generally  no tax  impact  to the  Company
associated with incentive stock options and the related compensation  associated
with such options in the income  statement.  However,  tax benefits may arise at
the time  incentive  options are  exercised  to the extent that the  exercise is
followed by a disqualifying  disposition of the shares by the optionee. The 2004
period reflects a greater amount of tax benefits associated with the impact from
the exercise of incentive stock options as compared to 2005.
      Discontinued  operations  reflect the  operations  of  restaurants  closed
subsequent  to fiscal 2002 which are  required  to be  reported as  discontinued
operations  pursuant  to SFAS No.  144  (see  Note 7 to the  Notes to  Condensed
Consolidated Statements).

IMPACT OF INFLATION

      The  primary  inflationary  factors  affecting  the  Company's  operations
include food and labor costs. A number of the Company's restaurant personnel are
paid at the federal and state established minimum wage levels and,  accordingly,
changes in such wage levels affect the Company's labor costs. However, since the
majority of personnel  are tipped  employees,  minimum wage changes  should have
little effect on overall labor costs.  Historically,  as costs of food and labor
increased,  the Company has been able to offset  these  increases  through  menu
price  increases  and  economies of scale;  however,  there may be delays in the
implementation  of such menu price increases or in effecting timely economies of
scale, as well as competitive pressures which may limit the Company's ability to
recover any cost increases in its entirety. Historically,  inflation has not had
a  material  impact on  operating  margins.  During  fiscal  2004,  the  Company
experienced  significant  volatility  in beef prices as such prices for the year
were generally above historical levels. During the first three quarters of 2005,
beef  prices  were below 2004  levels.  However,  to the extent that beef prices
during the  remainder  of fiscal 2005 or in future  periods were to rise to 2004
levels  or  significantly  above  previous  historical  levels,  it will  have a
material negative impact on operating margins.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AMOUNTS)

                                                          ===========         ========= 



     The  increase  in  net  cash  provided  by  operating  activities  for  the
thirty-six  week period ended  September 6, 2005 compared to the prior period is
due  primarily  to the  increase  in stock  compensation,  decreases  in certain
operating  assets and decreases in operating  liabilities  related to income tax
payments during fiscal 2005 as compared to fiscal 2004.

     Net cash used in investing  activities increased primarily due to increases
in property and equipment  additions and the purchase of short-term  investments
partially offset by a reduction in cash used for acquisitions.

     During the  thirty-six  week period ended  September 6, 2005, the Company's
investment  in property and  equipment  was $30,704  compared to $16,399 for the
same period in 2004.

     During the thirty-six  weeks ended September 6, 2005, the Company  invested
$21,325  in  short  term  investments   primarily  consisting  of  auction  rate
securities  with  contractual  maturities  of up  to 30  years.  There  were  no
investments in short-term  investments in the comparable  period of 2004.  These
auction rate securities have interest re-set dates that occur every 7 to 90 days
and can be actively  marketed at ongoing auctions that occur every 7 to 90 days.
These   investments   are  in   investment-grade   debt   instruments   such  as
government-backed   securities.   Auction  rate  securities  are  classified  as
available-for-sale  and are  reported on the balance  sheet at par value,  which
equals market value, as the rate on such  securities  resets every 7 to 90 days.
Consequently,  interest rate movements do not affect the balance sheet valuation
of these fixed income investments.

      On January 28, 2004, the Company  acquired TXCC for an aggregate  purchase
price of $23,496 which consisted of cash,  shares of the Company's  common stock
and the assumption of certain  liabilities.  The cash portion of the acquisition
was funded from the Company's  existing  cash  balances and was $12,579,  net of
cash  acquired.  In May 2005,  the  Company  acquired  for  $1,200 in cash,  the
remaining minority interest of certain limited partners in TXCC - Preston,  L.P.
in which the Company owned a 60% interest.

     During the  thirty-six  week period ended  September  6, 2005,  the Company
received  net  proceeds  of $2,038 from the  issuance  of 198,686  shares of its
common stock due to the exercise of stock options compared to proceeds of $5,855
