Gargoyles closing

I got the official email today:


All Good Things Must End

It's with heavy hearts that we must say:

Gargoyles on the Square will be closing its doors after business hours on Tuesday, September 20th, 2011, as it is time for the Conforti family to move on.

We have had a terrific run thanks to wonderful, dedicated staff members and all our loyal customers over the years.
You are all considered a part of the "Gargoyles Family" and we will miss you all.

Thanks for the memories!
James, Pat and John



Gargoyles was one of my favorite restaurants, with the crazy food and the fun waitstaff. I'll really miss them.

The restaurant business is very hard and even harder for small restaurants. You can be busy all the time or look busy most of the time but if you do not have a favorable lease and good a profit margin you can loose money or make so little that it is not worth it. No successful business that is making good money just closes. I'm sure there where issues behind the scenes.
