"We didn't realize what would be the impact [of COVID]. All the PPP [Paycheck Protection Program] and things like that, we thought this might save us ... we didn't realize the impact of the aftermath."

"The customer loss has hit Les Enfants so much that the restaurant has ceased its lunchtime hours."

"This pandemic and the resulting economic changes have devastated our regular clientele, especially the seniors who supported us almost daily before it hit."
