Amarillo Restaurants Open on Thanksgiving

I know for my family, we don't have a huge family and we just want to relax and enjoy each others company on Thanksgiving.  That's why this year we have decided not to do a big Thanksgiving meal.  We are going to take advantage of the restaurants open on Thanksgiving Day.

No countless hours spent prepping and cooking, no hours spent cleaning up.  Eat and enjoy each other and still go home and fall asleep on the couch.

Here's some great restaurants that will be open on Thanksgiving Day*.
