There are a lot of restaurants in this area that has been closing things early because they're short staffed.
I talked to the manager, and she told me they are short help at night. So they allow them close things early. I ran into the same thing myself.
I visited around 7:30 and they did not allow me to dine in. They said going to close in some time with no reason . But at least I got to go option.
