New York is very familiar with restaurants closing their doors. TGI Fridays closed locations across the Empire State a few months back including locations in Albany and Bay Shore to name a few. In addition, Red Lobster shut down a couple of locations recently including one in the Bronx and the other in Queensbury. The list of restaurant chain closures is endless. Suffice it to say it’s been a tough economic climate over the past few years thus these restaurant companies are forced to trim the fat by closing underperforming locations.
