This comes from a comment made by AcGold in the Timmies failure thread.
I think it would be cool to have a thread for local owned restaurants.
I will start for my town:
Bamboo Hut (they have two other restaurants in Dead Rear, Blue Dragon and Sophear).
They are just of the lake shore, and serve Thai food. They don't have a website but here is the Urbanspoon for them:

Often they will shut down for a week or two for vacation. Great food.
Open Range, a little pub/grill. Again no website but Urbanspoon:

Very much a love or hate place, I love it. It is a locals place, and everytime I go, I see someone I know. Grub is solid pub.
