Brutally tough, low margin business with very little margin for error. Most of the mid-tier chains are struggling. That said it was mom's favorite place. I didn't mind it, not my first choice, but not my last.

The only good thing about Red Lobster is when you see the sign it’s usually close to a better restaurant. Red Lobster sucks.
I don’t like fish though so I may be biased. |

The greed around the rent for business I feel has taken the largest toll. Mall space rent is one, along with individual properties a close second. Sure hourly wages have really hit these businesses, but a little bit of rent and tax breaks would cure these closings.
When you have mall space rent that is over $10,000 per month on many stores, how do you stay in business? |

Last endless shrimp I indulged in at RL
The waitress took longer and longer to bring out more shrimp. Pretty sure that was covert strategy to bounce me out of there. No pun intended.
