Restaurant brand 110 Grill has postponed the opening of its new location in Lenox, Massachusetts, until the middle of the third quarter of 2023.
The Berkshire Eagle reported that the new location, which will mark 110 Grill’s first restaurant in Berkshire County, is situated close to Kohl’s in The Center near Route 7/20.
It will serve lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch on selected weekends.
Development of the restaurant building had already been completed, with a plan to open the outlet last month before the peak summer season.
However, recruitment and salary issues have delayed the opening, which was originally planned to take place in December 2022.
110 Grill operations director Kimberly Wallace told The Eagle that the number of these issues has decreased compared to last year. No supply chain issues are involved in the delay.

110 Grill plans to hire up to 50 employees at its Lenox location.
Per the company’s online job application page, 110 Grill plans to fill various hourly positions for the posts of servers, bartenders, hosts, line cooks, prep cooks and dishwashers.
The new Lenox location will be housed in a single-story, 5,700ft² building. It will also include a 1,700 ft² outdoor patio.
In April 2022, Lenox Select Board granted approval for the all-alcohol restaurant, as well as entertainment licenses.
The site plan for both Kohl’s and 110 Grill received clearance in June 2021.
