Phoenix Red Lobster at Desert Sky Mall Shuts Its Doors

National seafood chain Red Lobster has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, a significant move impacting its operations nationwide. The well-known brand, famous for its crab legs, lobster deals, and Cheddar Bay biscuits, has begun shutting down several of its restaurants across the country.

In Arizona alone, the recent wave of closures has resulted in the shutdown of three local Red Lobster locations. This decision comes amidst ongoing challenges faced by the restaurant industry, forcing many establishments to assess their viability in a changing economic landscape.

The implications of these closures are considerable, affecting both employees and patrons who frequented these locations. As Red Lobster navigates its restructuring process, stakeholders will be closely monitoring how this situation unfolds in the coming months.
