Saratoga restaurants are handling the challenges of the coronavirus crisis with a sense of family, social responsibility, and grace. <\/span><\/p>\n

When the governor\u2019s mandate to close sit-down services for all restaurants and bars went into effect on March 16, establishments across the state were forced to deal with the hardship. Many have had to shut down completely and await the fate of their business as the pandemic continues.<\/span><\/p>\n

The option for restaurants is making take-out available for curbside pickup, or delivering<\/a>. Some restaurants who were previously not involved in either practice are implementing them to stay afloat.<\/span><\/p>\n

New York state\u2019s restaurant industry is among the most impacted, losing $1.9 billion and more than 250,000 jobs, according to a recent report by the National Restaurant Association. A nationwide survey of more than 4,500 restaurant operators, conducted from March through 26, found that an estimated $25 billion in sales and more than 3 million jobs were lost in the industry in the first 22 days of March 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n

In New York, an estimated $1.9 billion in sales and more than 250,000 jobs were lost in the same time period.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhile our industry nationwide is deeply impacted, New York state restaurants are among the hardest hit,\u201d New York State Restaurant Association President and CEO Melissa Fleischut said in a news release. <\/span><\/p>\n

An estimated 3 percent of restaurant operators nationwide, and 5 percent in New York, have permanently closed their doors. Yet another 11 percent, and 12 percent in New York, anticipated eventually having to closing their restaurant by the end of April.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMany restaurants have already closed and will never reopen, and restaurant employees are out of work, trying to figure out what\u2019s next,\u201d Fleischut said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Locally, there is still restaurant activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Olde Bryan Inn in Saratoga Springs had a successful weekend preparing traditional St. Patrick\u2019s Day dinners, according to Robin Kelsey, manager for 25 years.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe typically have a busy take-out service and just as when eating in, every item is made to order,\u201d said Kelsey. There had been some 160 items available for pickup normally and the chefs have pared down to about 30.<\/span><\/p>\n

Olde Bryan Inn also trimmed its staff. Bartenders and servers were laid off with pay, while some of the salaried positions are on-site for projects, according to Kelsey.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe atmosphere has been good, and we are being cautious by turning the building inside out and doing a thorough cleaning,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Takeout had been priority for the week when on March 24 owner Steve Sullivan announced he would close the restaurant completely for a short time, Kelsey said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe had some interior work to do, so we just pushed up those plans,\u201d said Kelsey. Some projects included re-grouting, treating the hardwood with linseed oil, and putting polyurethane on the bar, she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kelsey said the owner \u201cwent above and beyond\u201d for the crew, many of whom have been with the restaurant a dozen years or more. Staff turnover is very low, she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a phone tree and check in with a few at a time regularly,\u201d she said. \u201cPlus, I send messages through the internet every day. We will get through this together,\u201d said Kelsey.<\/span><\/p>\n

At Augie\u2019s Family Style Italian Restaurant in Ballston Spa, owner Augie Vitiello said that after an initial \u201csense of despair\u201d he was \u201cbreathing a sigh of relief and feeling grateful to still be open to do curbside and take-out. Augie\u2019s was always geared to take-out service and big family-sized portions, so the transition for us has been seamless,\u201d he said. <\/span><\/p>\n

The business also has Augie\u2019s To Go in Saratoga Springs. That has always been operating as a take-out venue, so it operates as usual.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited about doing what restaurants are supposed to be doing, and have been cautious with sanitizing, using gloves, appropriate distancing, as well as bringing food out to the car,\u201d Vitiello said. \u201cThe customers have been loyal and we have a steady swath of business.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Vitiello said he feels fortunate he hasn\u2019t been forced to shutter his restaurant.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI have friends with clothing and retail stores who are out of business for now,\u201d he said. \u201cSome restaurants in the area have had to close because it is difficult to do a volume of take-out if not used to it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The wait staff and busboys at Augie\u2019s are \u201ctaking the biggest hit, and the people here are working hard,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vitiello is \u201ctrying to be fair by cutting back across the board\u201d on shifts and hours, he said. For example, if a waiter typically worked three nights a week, now their shift might be once every 10 days, he said. \u201cWe get that we have to roll up our sleeves. This is not the first time the country has gone through something.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to live life and look after each other, and support all our local restaurants,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Marino\u2019s Pizza in Saratoga Springs is in its 40th year of business. Owner Gary Latte admits this year poses the most difficult challenges he has faced.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shortly after the mandate to close earlier and discontinue table service, it was business as usual at Marino\u2019s. He has very few tables and relies on take-out. But the following week there was a 30 percent drop in business.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe reduced the hours for each of our 13 employees by about three hours a week,\u201d he said. \u201cWe have a good staff who have been with us a while and are now multi-tasking different positions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Latte said he was not worried about breaking even. He continued to serve loyal customers. He also realized that financially a cut-back was a concern for everyone, but reasoned that reducing staff \u201cwould help cut down the risk of infection.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile coronavirus cases started to rise. After discussing it with his two managers, Latte decided to close during the week of April 2\u00a0 <\/span>and re-evaluate thereafter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIn preparation of the peak I am putting health first,\u201d he said. \u201cWe questioned: Is it really wise to continue to be open during this health crisis?\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHow important it is for the government to fulfill its promise for financial assistance, because small businesses need the help now,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The New York State Restaurant Association is supporting its members by working with Gov. Andrew Cuomo in advocating for a delay in sales tax payments, a moratorium on evictions and adjustments in State Liquor Authority regulations. This has allowed some operators to keep their doors open during this crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Saratoga County Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Saratoga County Prosperity Partnership, Saratoga Economic Development Corporation, Discover Saratoga, the Saratoga Springs City Center and the Saratoga Springs Downtown Business Association, aims to keep restaurateurs informed via email of the various programs being offered to the local owners and their employees who have become unemployed through no fault of their own.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
