AUSTINS STEAKS & SALOON, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2000 and 1999
(Unaudited)

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Austins Steaks & Saloon, Inc. ("Austins" or the "Company") in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all material reclassifications and adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial
position and cash flows for each period shown, have been included. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The unaudited consolidated
financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-QSB and do not contain certain information included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements
and notes. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 1999.



Certain reclassifications have been made to 1999 financial statement amounts to conform to the 2000 presentation.

(2) Business Combination

Effective July 1, 1999, Austins Steaks & Saloon, Inc. ("Austins"), a Delaware corporation, merged with The WesterN SizzliN Corporation
("WesterN SizzliN"), a Tennessee corporation, located in Roanoke, Virginia. The assets and business of WesterN SizzliN are now owned by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Austins, The WesterN SizzliN
Corporation, a Delaware corporation. As a result of the merger, Austins' six moderately priced, casual dining, full service restaurants located in Arizona, Nebraska and New Mexico have been combined
with WesterN SizzliN.

Effective
June 30, 1999, each of the outstanding 2,700,406 shares of common stock were split 1 for 3.135, leaving a total of 861,374 Austins shares outstanding prior to the
merger. Upon completion of the merger, the Austins shareholders own approximately 7 percent of the outstanding equity and the WesterN SizzliN shareholders own approximately 93 percent of
the outstanding equity of the combined Company.

Pursuant
to the merger, each share of WesterN SizzliN common and Series B convertible preferred stock (4,339,000 and 874,375 shares, respectively) were converted into two
shares of Austin's common stock. Also effective with the merger, each WesterN SizzliN common stock warrant (371,250 warrants) was converted into two shares of Austin's common stock.

The
business combination has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. In the acquisition, the shareholders of the acquired company, WesterN
SizzliN, received the majority of the voting interests in the surviving consolidated company. Therefore, WesterN SizzliN was deemed to be the acquiring company for financial reporting purposes and
accordingly, all of the assets and

6

---

liabilities of Austins have been recorded at fair value and the operations of Austins have been reflected in the operations of the combined company from July 1, 1999, the date of acquisition.

The
purchase price of the business combination was determined based on the market price of Austins' securities over a reasonable period of time before and after the two companies
reached an agreement on the purchase price and the proposed transaction was announced. On February 23, 1999, Austins and WesterN SizzliN signed a letter of intent agreeing on the purchase price
and announced the proposed transaction. The average closing market price for the five business day period beginning February 19, 1999 and ending February 25, 1999 for Austins was
$1.2695. Applying this price per share to the Austins' presplit common shares issued, and including the estimated direct costs incurred as a result of the acquisition of $570,813, resulted in a deemed
purchase price of $3,999,081. The aggregate purchase
price of the acquisition was allocated based upon management's best estimate of the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of Austins at the date of acquisition as follows:

|Current assets (including cash of $10,431) |  | $204,675   
|------------------------------------------ |  | -----------
|Property and equipment, net                |  | 2,672,361  
|Other assets                               |  | 380,615    
|Favorable lease rights                     |  | 553,833    
|Goodwill                                   |  | 925,372    
|Trademarks                                 |  | 76,283     
|Deferred tax assets                        |  | 1,344,184  
|Long-term debt                             |  | (1,204,264)
|Current liabilities                        |  | (684,050)  
|Note payable to shareholder                |  | (269,928)  
|                                           |  |            
|                                           |  | Total      
|                                           |  |            

Goodwill
resulting from the acquisition is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years.

(3) Legal Settlement and Private Placement of Common Stock

On September 10, 1999, the Company completed its settlement agreement with David K. Wachtel, Jr. with respect to long-standing litigation
initiated in February 1995. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Austins paid Mr. Wachtel $1,000,000 in settlement of all claims he had in the litigation, which was included in
other expense for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999. Additionally, Mr. Wachtel withdrew his notice to dissent from the merger between Austins and the
WesterN SizzliN with respect to the 684,000 WesterN SizzliN shares (premerger) owned by him, and Austins repurchased these shares for the sum of $3,420,000.

In
order to obtain the funds with which to pay Mr. Wachtel under the settlement agreement, the Company conducted a private placement of its common stock at prices ranging from
$2.25 to $2.50 per share to qualified shareholders, principally former WesterN SizzliN stockholders. On the closing date of September 10, 1999, the Company had received approximately
$2.9 million of proceeds which it used,
along with approximately $1.5 million of bank and other financing to complete the settlement with Mr. Wachtel.

---

As a part of the private placement, Austins issued 1,286,200 shares of its common stock to the qualified investors-purchasers. The holders of a majority of the stock ultimately
acquired in the private placement have the right, for the one-year period commencing March 15, 2000, to request Austins to file a registration statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission to permit the resale of the stock. The registration must remain effective for 45 days and Austins must cover the costs of the registration. If any investor may resell
all of his or her share in a single three-month period utilizing Rule 144, then the registration rights will not apply to that investor.

(4) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. Stock options for shares of common stock were not included in computing diluted earnings per share
for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 because these effects are anti-dilutive. Common stock warrants are not included in computing diluted
earnings per share, prior to their conversion in connection with the reverse merger acquisition, since the conditions for their issuance, such as an initial public offering or registration of the
Company's common stock, had not taken place.

The
following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the years indicated:

(5) Reportable Segments

The Company has defined two reportable segments: Company-operated restaurants and franchising. The Company-operated restaurant segment consists of the
operations of all Company-operated restaurants and derives its revenues from the operations of "WesterN SizzliN Steakhouse," "Great American Steak & Buffet," "WesterN SizzliN Wood Grill" and
"Austins Steaks & Saloon." The franchising segment

8

---

consists of franchise sales and support activities and derives its revenues from sales of franchise and development rights and collection of royalties from franchisees.

Generally,
the Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on income from operations before income taxes and eliminations. Administrative and capital costs are
allocated to segments based upon predetermined rates or actual or estimated resource usage. The Company accounts for
intercompany sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were with third parties and eliminates the related profit in consolidation.

Reportable
segments are business units that provide different products or services. Separate management of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different
operational issues and strategies. Through June 30, 2000, all revenues for each business segment were derived from business activities conducted with customers located in the United States. No
single external customer accounted for 10 percent or more of the Company's consolidated revenues.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Austins Steaks & Saloon, Inc. (the Company) underwent a reverse merger acquisition, effective July 1, 1999, with the WesterN SizzliN
Corporation (WSC). A further description of the transaction is provided in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report.

The
Company currently operates and franchises a total of 232 restaurants located in 24 states, including 25 company-owned and 207 franchise restaurants. The restaurants include a
family steakhouse concept, a steak and buffet concept, and the casual dining steakhouse concept. The Company signed a short-term lease agreement with Franchise Finance Corporation of
America (FFCA) commencing June 8, 2000. Under the short-term lease agreement, the Company will operate 97 restaurant units, formerly owned by Quincy's Restaurants, Inc. The
Company is entitled to 3.5 percent of gross sales as a management fee for operating the properties. The agreement initially expires August 31, 2000 and the Company and FFCA are exploring
various alternatives for a long-term lease arrangement.

From
time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating to certain matters, including anticipated financial performance, business prospects, the future opening
of Company-operated and franchised restaurants, anticipated capital expenditures, and other matters. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this
Form 10-QSB or in any other report of the Company are forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking
statements. In order to comply with the terms of that safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors, individually or in the aggregate, could cause the Company's actual results and
experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements including, without limitation, the following: the ability of
the Company or its franchises to obtain suitable locations for restaurant development; consumer spending trends and habits; competition in the restaurant segment with respect to price, service,
location, food quality and personnel resources; weather conditions in the Company's operating regions; laws and government regulations; general business and economic conditions; availability of
capital; success of operating initiatives and marketing and promotional efforts; and changes in
accounting policies. In addition, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update those forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

Net income for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 was $243,360 and $412,151, respectively, as compared to a net loss of
$282,272 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and net income of $169,511 for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999. The results for the three month and six month
periods ended June 30, 1999 were affected by a $1,000,000 charge related to the settlement of litigation with the former president of WSC.

Quarter and Year-to-Date Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Quarter and Year-to-Date Ended June 30, 1999

Total revenues increased 16.4 percent to $11.9 million for the three-months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $10.2 million for
the comparable three-month period ended June 30, 1999. Total revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000 increased 15.3 percent to $23.0 million from
$20.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The three-month increase is primarily attributable to an increase in company-operated stores revenues from $8.6 million for
the 1999 three-month period to $10.3 million for the 2000 three-month period. The six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 showed similar trends with revenues from
company-operated stores increasing to $19.9 million in 2000 from $16.8 million in 1999 with franchise operations revenue and other revenue showing slight decreases.

The
increase in company-operated stores revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000 over June 30, 1999 is attributable to an increase in the number of
company-operated stores from 20 for 1999 to 26 in 2000. This increase is attributable to the reverse merger acquisition which was effective July 1, 1999. The increase in company-operated stores
revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000 over June 30, 1999 is also attributable to the increase in stores previously referred to above. The slight increase in
franchise operations revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000 over June 30, 1999 is a combination of two factors, including a slight increase in franchise store sales on a
comparable

store basis and additional franchise transfer fees. The Company's systemwide revenues are comparable to industry trends. Other revenue consists of seasoning and marinade sales to franchises and the
overall decreases are consistent with decreases in the number of franchised units within the system.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses increased from $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $11.3 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2000. Total costs and expenses increased from $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $21.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

The
increases in costs of company-operated stores and restaurant operating expenses are attributable to a variety of factors including an increase in the number of company stores and
the corresponding sales increases, as well as rising beef prices. Additionally, the Company has made investments in recruiting additional personnel to staff these operations and provide trained
replacements in the pipeline to respond to the tight labor market within the industry. The costs of franchise operations are comparable for the quarter as compared to 1999 while the
year-to-date amounts show a slight increase from $1.09 million in 1999 to $1.13 million in 2000. The increase in the amounts represent expenses for increased
franchise marketing efforts. The Company hired a director of franchise sales, a new position, in late June of 1999 and is actively stepping up its efforts to increase the number of units in the
franchise system.

Other
cost of operations represent the cost of seasoning and marinade sales and the reductions in cost are consistent with the reductions in actual sales. General and administrative
increased from $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. General and administrative increased from
$2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The Company continues to make investments aimed at building the
infrastructure to support continued growth and expansion. The addition of various personnel to the corporate staff, including a chief operating officer and chief financial officer, upgrading
technology, as well as general expenses of the corporation account for the increased levels of spending.

Other Income (Expense)

The largest single item affecting other income and expense is the settlement of long-standing litigation with WSC's former president in
June 1999. The settlement, including $1,000,000 related to the lawsuit, is more fully discussed in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements and is included in other expense.
Additionally, the Company began operating 97 Quincy's units on June 8 under a short-term lease. The lease provides that Western Sizzlin will receive 3.5 percent of sales as a
management fee.
Management fees of approximately $190,000 were recorded in June 2000. This agreement is anticipated to result in additional revenues in the months of July and August as the agreement is initially set
to expire August 31, 2000.

The
increase in interest expense for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 as compared to June 30, 1999 is attributable to debt assumed in the
reverse merger acquisition effective July 1, 1999 and to debt incurred to finance part of the lawsuit settlement and repurchase of stock held by the former president of WSC. Interest income
fluctuates according to the levels of available and investable cash balances. The Company employs a cash management system whereby available balances are invested on an overnight basis.

Income
tax expense is directly affected by the levels of pretax income. The Company's effective tax rate of approximately 38.0 percent in 2000 is comparable to the annualized
rate of 38.3 percent for 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As is customary in the restaurant industry, the Company has operated with negative working capital. Historically, the Company has leased the majority of its
restaurants and through a strategy of controlled growth has financed expansions from operating cash flow, proceeds from the sale of common stock, the utilization of the Company's line of credit and
long-term debt provided by various lenders.

During
the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company had net cash provided by operating activities of $1,701,659 and $793,496, respectively. Cash flows from
operations were the primary source of capital expenditures and debt repayments during the period. In addition, the Company utilizes its existing line of credit to provide additional
short-term funding. Management is actively reviewing available financing alternatives to provide cash for future expansion, restructure existing debt, and provide additional working
capital; however, no final agreements have been reached on these matters.

Impact of Inflation

The impact of inflation on the costs of food and beverage products, labor and real estate can affect the Company's operations. Over the past few years,
inflation has had a lesser impact on the Company's operations due to the lower rates of inflation in the nation's economy and economic conditions in the Company's market areas.

Management
believes the Company has historically been able to pass on increased costs through certain selected menu price increases and has offset increased costs by increased
productivity and purchasing efficiencies, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so in the future. Management anticipates that the average cost of restaurant real estate
leases and construction cost could increase in the future which could affect the Company's ability to expand. In addition, mandated health care or additional increases in the federal or state minimum
wages could significantly increase the Company's costs of doing business.
