Even during hard financial times in the past, Texas restaurants maintained steady business. In the past few weeks, however, I’ve noticed that most food establishments are almost always empty, with maybe one or two diners. Fast food isn’t much better. If we aren’t already in a recession, I believe we soon will be. Scary times. Not feeling so great again.

Maybe people don't want to pay $25 for a hamburger

I doubt they've stopped eating.

Poor Texas. What a shitty state.
We don't have this problem!

I could see a floating restaurant in the middle of Guadalupe River doing quite well!

It's not just Texas. I know several restaurants and bars suffering in Seattle.

It’s happening all over the country.
Prices are outrageous now and some people refuse to realize this because it doesn’t affect them in any way.
It’s easy to not care when you still live off family. The majority of us working know how expensive things are.

OP- People can just drive to the restaurant, pick up the food and go home- no waitress necessary.

Amazing that a group of people in the crosshairs of a nationwide campaign extrajudicial state violence don't feel safe going out for a taco!

It’s too expensive.
Like the movie industry has been declining but they refuse to acknowledge it’s all too expensive to do all the time.

Too expensive plus the deportations will make it worse.

The deportations will have a strong negative effect on the economy. It won’t happen overnight but it will happen.

Texas voted for this. Oh well 🤷♂️

For us, a pre-pandemic once a week takeout and once a week eating in a restaurant has changed into once a month for each.
I can’t justify the cost.
