Over the past couple of weeks, we have seen our restaurants reopen, first at 25 percent, then 50, and hopefully not too far down the road, they will get to open up even more. The fact that restaurants are opening up again has meant a lot of old familiar habits have returned, favorite lunch spot, favorite desserts, favorite BBQ, and so on. Still, sadly, not all of our restaurants have reopened. This is our list or at least the start of our list of closed restaurants.
Quite a few restaurants in the DFW area have closed or are still really struggling. Below is a list of restaurants that have already closed. If you know of a restaurant that has closed due to the coronavirus shut-down, please add it to the comments so that we can have a more comprehensive listing.
