Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Leases — In connection with one of our leases, the Company obtained and delivered an irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of approximately $238,000 as a security deposit under such lease. Legal Proceedings — In the ordinary course its business, the Company is a party to various lawsuits arising from accidents at its restaurants and workers’ compensation claims, which are generally handled by the Company’s insurance carriers. The employment by the Company of management personnel, waiters, waitresses and kitchen staff at a number of different restaurants has resulted in the institution, from time to time, of litigation alleging violation by the Company of employment discrimination laws. Management believes, based in part on the advice of counsel, that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. On May 1, 2018, two former tipped service workers (the “Plaintiffs”), individually and on behalf of all other similarly situated personnel, filed a putative class action lawsuit (the “Complaint”) against the Company and certain subsidiaries as well as certain officers of the Company (the “Defendants”). Plaintiffs alleged, on behalf of themselves and the putative class, that the Company violated certain of the New York State Labor Laws and related regulations. The Complaint sought unspecified money damages, together with interest, liquidated damages and attorney fees. In December 2020, the parties reached a settlement agreement resolving all issues alleged in the Complaint, which received preliminary approval by the New York State Supreme Court, for approximately the amount which was previously accrued. It is anticipated the parties will shortly submit a joint application to the New York State Supreme Court seeking final approval of the settlement.
