The restaurant industry as a whole has been struggling lately, and it shows based on the number of locations these big-name chains are shutting down. Think about it: It seems like not a day has gone by since you have heard about another restaurant company being forced to shut down some locations. People aren't dining out as much as in the past, and many folks are struggling to make ends meet. Dining out isn't even mildly on their priority list.
