Seek and Enjoy: New restaurants in the Boston area
It’s been a while since I have done a seek and enjoy segment. But a few restaurant closings and openings have caught my eye. It’s a new year, which means…
STK Steakhouse - Boston Seaport
Tavern in the Square - Dedham
Sally's Apizza- Woburn
A List of Restaurants that are Closing
Fat Cat - Quincy
The Fat Cat is closing its doors, with a Facebook post from the Hancock Street spot saying the following:
It is with great heartache that we have to inform you that we will be closing at the end of business on January 10th. It's been an amazing 16 years that we wouldn't have made that long without you. The plan for Fat Cat was to always move back to the East of Chestnut concept where our original location was. Unfortunately for all of us, Covid hit and that project was stalled. We have tried our best to manage the waters but it's become too much. Even with the kindness and generosity of Foxrock Properties, the ever rising cost of goods and doing business has become a burden that is unbearable. We hope that you will come see us before we say farewell and we thank you all for your support over the last 16 years.
Denino's Pizza
Denneno's Pizza in Stoughton is shutting down after 70 years, with an Instagram post from the Pearl Street spot saying the following:
The time has come for us as a family to make the difficult decision to close our family business. We are grateful for your patronage and support for the past 68 years....Our last day of operation will be December 31. 2023. In the meantime we wish you all the best in the holiday season and beyond.
The bar pizza scene has lost a great one and will be missed.
TGI Fridays - Dedham
I grew up near the Dedham area and TGI Fridays in Dedham was one of my spots. That location along with the Mansfield, Marlborough, North Attleborough, and Seekonk restaurants are no longer in business, while another source says that the Danvers outlet has closed as well--and all of these have been removed from the company's website. This leaves only seven locations of the chain remaining in the state, including in Boston, Braintree, Everett, Methuen, Millbury, North Dartmouth, and Stoughton.
