Default Is the Lighthouse Restaurant Closing?

With the owners of the Lighthouse Restaurant taking over the Spanish Springs space formerly occupied by Demshars, does that mean they’ll no longer operate the Lighthouse?

The Lighthouse is an extremely successful business. I can't imagine they would close a successful business and take a chance on a venue that has had disappointing results.

I thought the article said their kids were going to manage the new restaurant. Didn’t say anything about closing LH

sounded to me like they were just expanding their business in TV by operating another restaurant

This thread is reckless, and has the potential to be incite harmful rumors being spread, and should be taken down.

Of course the Lighthouse restaurant is not closing, unless TV are going to build Lake Front Apartments? Gotcha! Ha! Ha!

One post referred to a location with disappointing results - when I first came to TV in 1999 that corner had a micro brewery and a great restaurant ...it was packed every day from noon to close - businesses fold by not providing what TV wants at a price TV wants to pay. Look at the Guy Fierri burger joint in LS ...lasted 5 minutes !!!

No longer a fan of The Lighthouse. Ordered a hamburger with dill pickles on it. It arrived without the pickles. I asked the server to bring me some pickles--which he did. When the bill arrived, it included a 75 cent charge for the pickles. The server said the manager added it. There were seven of us at the table, so the total bill was over $200.00. This 75 cent charge will cost The Lighthouse from now on because when we eat out (with friends), we WON'T be going there. I tell this story whenever The Lighthouse comes up. This is their price for their greed. What a shame!

Who said they were closing, there is such a thing as expanding your business and opening another..

If you enjoy the restaurant in the past and this time also, a chat with the manager would I’m sure have solved the issue . Might depend on what pickles were desired, slices or cold pack .
