SAVANNAH (Wednesday, January 18, 2006) - The Johnny Rockets Group, Inc., announced today the opening of its newest restaurant at the Oglethorpe Mall in the heart of classic Savannah, Ga. Residents and guests in Georgia's first city will experience Southern hospitality firsthand as Johnny Rockets serves up classic American treats in a timeless, family- friendly atmosphere.
