OC Restaurant Files For Reorganization

A long-time restaurant has filed for Chapter 11 reorganization this week after a tumultuous start to the year.

Satellite Restaurants Inc. owns and operates the 120th Street Crabcake Factory USA, which turns 25 years old next year.

“Crabcake Factory is an Ocean City icon and we don’t plan on changing a thing in regards to ability to deliver the delicious food and drinks that Ocean City knows and loves. This is a COVID and business issue that requires a reorganization solution. Our quality and service will not be compromised. We are not going anywhere,” said Johnny Brooks, owner and CEO of Crabcake Factory USA since 1996. “Unfortunately recent events relating to COVID-19 and the restrictions placed on restaurants coupled with some long standing wage and tax liabilities have tied our hands going into an uncertain offseason. We want to be proactive protecting the legacy of Crabcake Factory for another 25 years in Ocean City.”

Hogan, the Governor that voted for Reagan is your problem. If he goes away, maybe MD has a chance but it's doubtful.

Isn't this the restaurant owner that told everyone to snitch on all the other businesses in Ocean City so the Health Department would close them up too - and even gave the number to call?
If so, I would call this Karma, bad Karma, pure and simple.

it's estimated nyc lost more then half their restaurants, why would oc not suffer the same fate?

He closed in June due to the number of Hooligan’s in town. I believe you may be racist assuming it was due to Black people who were “just minding their own business.“

Your ass 4:32, give a number of new cases created by the OC Air Show, Summer Lite, OC Bike Rally, H20I, and Endless Summer Cruise In. I don't remember reading how the local hospitals were overflowing or approaching saturation. I'm waiting .... but not holding my breath, because you have no facts. You're just a FAT ASS hogan POS sheep being led by a Trump hater, and not intelligent enough to realize it.

Exactly, hogan is the problem. He demonstrated his level of intelligence by voting for a dead ex-president. What a waste of food and oxygen.

I have only owned a small business for a few years however it amazes me that a business in ocean city md for 25 years could have this kinda problem being partially closed for one season. Do I need to mention a thriving business in oc, my family an I have eating their many times!

How is going today Joe? Will this be another day without substantial news , I know you are busy with the OC business , but if you can't give us what we want in the news just say so . These bits and pieces aren't enough after 13 years of prime news . This has been over a month now , it's really getting old with the excuses you have provided about changing from blogger . I'm not mad just a little disturbed after 13 years following your blog . I hope you haven't been paid off from Sorros.

Get government out of the way and you'll see the economy thrive again. Government will always stifle business and try to get their piece of everyone else's pie!

If Hogan was ever on a ballot again, I bet I will write in Reagan. I doubt he will, all talk as usual.

Hogan became a great dispointment,
