Red Lobster planning to shut down its last San Jose location

Red Lobster recently announced another set of locations to close across the United States as part of its bankruptcy and sadly the very last location in San Jose was on the list. 

Sitting at the corner Capitol Expressway and Aborn Road, this has been a staple in Evergreen for decades. In fact, of all the amazing restaurants in Downtown San Jose, I don't think I have been to any of them as often as this Red Lobster. This was always the restaurant I would go to with family for small celebrations. It provided access to pretty decent seafood at affordable prices.

I'm pretty surprised this location is on the chopping block. Despite the high cost of real estate, it always seemed to be packed. Anyway, it will be and end to an era and hopefully something really interesting will take it's place that will become a new staple for the neighborhood.

The locations in Milpitas, Stockton, and Vallejo are also planning to close.
