Another local East Texas restaurant has made the difficult decision by announcing they would be closing their doors for the final time on October 5th. Just this past weekend I was driving along S. Broadway Ave. in Tyler, Texas with my wife and we were noticing and talking about how empty all the restaurants looked. It was late afternoon/early evening, basically dinner time, and we noticed the parking lots for places like Saltgrass Steakhouse, Razzoo's, Hawaiian Bros Island Grill, and Applebee's were pretty empty.
