“I don’t see us getting too much further without some help right now,” said Theodoropoulos.
And it’s become even more difficult recently with stricter state coronavirus reopening rules and the loss of outdoor dining.
“We would be grateful if we got anything at this point, anything that could help us out,” said Theodoropoulos.
Now he’s hoping a new state program might provide a boost.

Lamont explained how $35 million will be sent to some small and mid-size businesses including restaurants, bars and hotels.
