Why is Schwartz and Sandy's closing?
In a November 25 statement to People, Tom Schwartz noted that closig Schwartz and Sandy's was one of "the hardest decisions" he's ever made.
"Unfortunately, the current climate for this business is pretty rough," he shared with the outlet. "Recovering from all the negativity post-scandal wasn't easy, and the slimmer margins post-COVID made it even harder to bounce back. There's not a lot of room for error in the restaurant/bar business."
