Local East City Restaurant To Flip Its Last Burger Dec. 18
/It was one of the toughest decisions to make for owners Carolyn and Steve Effer of Reggie’s Hot Grill but they are closing up shop on Dec. 18 announced Thursday.
The decision to close the East City restaurant was for the sake and well-being of the family.
“We realized over the pandemic that we need to make a lifestyle change for ourselves, for our health, for our family,” said Carolyn. “We love being here and we love the community who have supported us during the pandemic and even before that. We just had to make a hard decision and believe me, it was a hard decision.”

After living a closer family life due to the pandemic, it was a lifestyle that they become accustomed to.
“The thought of going back full-time, that lifestyle is not appealing to us anymore,” said Steve. “We wanted a more family lifestyle at home.”
