R.I.P. my favourite local restaurant killed by COVID government restrictions.

Saddened and angered that my favourite restaurant/ bar closed down today.
The place had been open for 25 years, 2 level restaurant with side street patio and rooftop patio, 2 pool tables, traditional Canadian cuisine and delicious Indian food on the menu, big portions and very reasonable prices on both the food and drink. 2 brothers from India bought the building 25 years ago and ran a great gathering place, superb friendly pleasant staff, total casual atmosphere, met some good friends there and enjoyed many meals over the past 10 years.
It was a great gathering place for people of all ages, families, kids, etc, some had been clients for decades.
When the lockdowns of restaurants started in early spring, the 2 brothers invested over $80,000.00 doing a great renovation of the place, really nice job, and still kept the same menu and drink prices when they reopened in early June.
The government capacity restrictions in the summer really took a toll on the business, then came the fall and even tighter restrictions were enforced, and for the past 3 months were only allowed to be open for takeout.
This past Friday, they decided to close down the business for good, I can’t blame them since I bet our government will justify keeping restaurants closed except for takeout all winter long.
