Kettering restaurant appears to have closed; fourth in same building to shut its doors
KETTERING — The Gyros restaurant at 3020 S. Dixie Highway at West Dorothy Lane appears to be closed.
Although there are no signs on the doors indicating to customers whether the restaurant has closed temporarily or permanently, there were no signs of life at the restaurant this morning, and all of the tables inside the restaurant have been removed, leaving behind the chairs. Prices on an overhead menu inside the restaurant also appear to have been taken down. Phone calls to the restaurant rang unanswered this morning, and two Dayton Daily News readers reported the restaurant was not open for business Monday for lunch or Wednesday night for dinner.
If Gyros has closed permanently, it would be the fourth to do so in recent years in the same building, following CiCi’s Pizza, Quiznos sub shop and Baja Fresh Mexican restaurant. No tenants have replaced those restaurants.
Gregg Gorsuch, economic development manager for the city of Kettering, said he was unaware of Gyros’ apparent closing. But Gorsuch said the closing of other restaurants in the same building, and the absence of successor restaurants in those spaces, suggests that restaurant-retail may not be the best use of that site.
“That particular building might be better suited for commercial and office uses rather than restaurants and retail,” gorsuch said. “It may be time to step back and re-evaluate that.”
Representatives of Oberer, the commercial Realty that lists the properties for lease, could not be reached this morning, Aug. 25.
