Restaurant closings in SoMD
- Thread starter onel0126
- Start date
Given the sudden plunge in food quality at the Lone Star in LP, I wondered if doors were going to close soon. Bummer too..that was my gf and mine favorite steak joint for quite a while.
Lots of local restaurants will be closing over the next 1-2 years. They have no choice because the country lets as many new ones as want to keep building in a completely saturated market. Its not rocket science; a new one opens, and existing one closes.
the one on 235 is open for business - I recently ran into an employee who said they had been closed (briefly) for renovations.
Maybe the locations in Waldorf are under renovation?
And please get over what "the county" does. It's a business, it's run for profit, the county approves permits based on code, not business plan. At least not until we become a fully compliant socialist state.
If restaurants close it's their business decision. It's a tough industry.

Lone star has closed and longhorn is undergoing renovations. Cracker Barrel will open in the spring of 2011

A few of my favorite lunch haunts have closed in the Clinton area. Regina's Pizza (which I was a regular customer), Tom's Kitchen (formerly Chi-Chi's, also closed), Royal Beijing (Chinese buffet) to name a few in the past year or two.
Haven't noticed any local franchise chains closing, though. I hope they don't close the Three Brothers in Clinton.
I hope you can find another one you can go to.

This is old news, but a restaurant in Prince Frederick closed about 2 months ago. I think it was Red, Hot and Blue, but I'm not sure. It is being replaced with IHOP in November.

haven't they pulled out now? This is becoming confusing (the Park Place Plans) - that's what it's called, correct?
Qucik, someone say Sonic and a Go Kart track.
IHOP eh? We were so bummed when the Pr. Frederick RW&B closed after such a short time. Momma was crazy for their bbq ever since I took her to the one up by Annapolis. ;-(

Good riddance... that place was filthy. Grease and dirt splattered all over the walls and floors. I can only imagine what the kitchen looked like if they were too lazy to clean the dining area. I hope the IHOP refurbishes it thoroughly else I won't be visiting.

Not the Reginas on Allentown Road in Camp Springs? I used to like Royal Bejing for lunch. Don't forget about Margellinas in Clinton that closed.
Will they be adding Bull Shark to the menu?
