What restaurants haven't raised prices a few times in the past several years?

The real problem is that I don't know many people who have eaten at any of these restaurants in quite a long time. They're convenient for the area and are established, but they're not at all the best or most exciting options. Dining preferences have shifted a lot.

The owner/founder dying last year may have exposed cracks that were otherwise brushed over while he was in charge, hence the drastic measures now of closing RedEye and restructuring the existing restaurants. (Though at 93, how much day to day involvement did he actually have within the company?)

Their restaurants used to be a little more expensive than their contemporaries (namely Brooklyn Diner), but now everyone else seems to have caught up to them.

I didn’t know redeye grill closed. I went there before Bridges of Madison County concert at Carnegie Hall last year and it was packed.

Has anyone been to Cafe Fiorello? Is it good? I’ve never been there before.
