Restaurants and businesses close for their own reasons. McGrady's and Sunny Pint, reataurants just a few years old in the newest area, have recently closed. IT HAPPENS EVERYWHERE. I have been here over 20 years, there have been too many closings to count. IN ALL THE SQUARES! Need a little proof? Explain how FMK was/is able to open restaurant after restaurant? Answer? The former occupants left.

Btw: We ate in Spanish Springs three times this month. Each time, we had to wait to be seated because the restaurants were full. Try it yourself. See if your luck is better than ours. I will be surprised if you are seated right away.

Not all businesses that leave the squares do so because of failure. For example: At one time, there was a mexican restaurant (kinda like Chipotles) located where Amerikanos is now. It was independently owned. Within a few years, the owner made enough money to retire quite comfortably. Decided the work was too hard, bought a premiere home, and now, enjoys golfing and relaxing every day.
