R.J.Gator's has made quantum leaps in progress from the little 100-seat wine & beer restaurant founded in 1986. In doing so, however, we have not lost sight of those time tested elements of the R.J.Gator's concept which have successfully built the brand for over the past 15 years. Today, there are 13 R.J.Gator's Restaurants. Seven of these locations are franchised, illustrating the commitment that R.J.Gator's has to franchising as its primary manner of doing business. Our newest prototype restaurants are doing $2.5 -$2.8 million in annual sales.
