Georgia: The Georgia Grille
While the official reason for this restaurant’s closing wasn’t said to be the pandemic, the owner of this Grille, Karen Hilliard, announced on Facebook in late April that “It is time to say goodbye.”
The Southwestern-style restaurant that was named in honor of the artist Georgia O’Keeffe, has been running for 30 years.

The 50-year-old Eastern European restaurant was originally meant to close down last October, but a planned sale fell through. This time, however, it’s gone for good, as of April 30th. “[W]e would be lying if we were to say that COVID-19 is the only reason we are closing,” according to a statement from the restaurant, “but it is definitely the straw that broke the camel’s back.”
