Expansion on menu for restaurateurs despite economic downturn
The $566 billion restaurant industry is unforgiving; it’ll leave a naïve entrepreneur broke and out of business within a year – in a good economy.
In this economy, even a savvy restaurateur is capable of losing everything – but there are local entrepreneurs taking risks opening restaurants and hoping for the best.
Of the notable openings, Trevor Sacco and a team of investors in October opened Bice, an Italian fine dining restaurant with roots in Milan.
Brian Malarkey – a local who competed on Bravo’s “Top Chef” – and EnDev LLC’s James Brennan are building buzz for Searsucker, a new restaurant they plan to open at Fifth Avenue and Market Street in the Gaslamp Quarter in July.
Local restaurant heavyweight David Cohn’s Cohn Restaurant Group opened two restaurants and relocated one in the last year.
And barbecue honcho Fred Glick, owner of Phil’s BBQ, is planning to open a second San Diego location this year, too.
