>The famously controversial Garfield-themed pizza restaurant GarfieldEATS has officially shut its doors.
>From Garfield-shaped pizzas to Garfuccinos, this restaurant quickly garnered local fame after food reviews went viral on Twitter.
>“GarfieldEATS closed its storefront last Monday (we hate Mondays anyways), but aggressively continues with its e-commerce operations selling merchandise and Frozen Big Cow Lasagnas only which you can throw in the oven anytime; removing all other menu items and specializing in lasagna, one popular product everyone loves, so as Garfield since 1978,” the restaurant wrote in a press release. “No landlord can take that recipe away from us. Who needs another brick and mortar anyways! No one is looking to open-up, but rather work digitally and smarter.”
>They might open another store in the future, but in the meantime, GarfieldEATS is sticking to selling lasagna online.
>ANOTHER VICTIM OF COVID-19, GARFIELDEATS HAS SHUT DOWN PERMANENTLY IN MY CITY. I ONLY GOT TO TASTE GARFIELD SHAPED PIZZA SLATHERED IN JON ARBUCKLE SAUCE ONCE, BUT THE MEMORIES WILL LAST FOREVER. GARFIELDEATS, I WILL MISS YOU.
Did anyone outside of Toronto even know this exisied?

>I ordered a large “peroni” pepperoni pizza ($16) and a slab of “Big Cow” lasagna ($18), which is described on the menu as “a generous size of lasagna rich in delicious creamy bechamel sauce filled with our ‘cowboy cut’ strips of rib eye.” There are no chairs or tables at the restaurant.
>I counted six pepperoni slices on the entire pizza and as a co-worker bit into a slice, she said, “I’m not sure if I ate the pizza or the box. The crust was really cardboardy and the pepperoni didn’t taste real.”
>The lasagna didn’t quite match what I saw on the menu, either. The “cowboy cut strips” looked more like ground beef and I couldn’t taste any of the tomato sauce that’s pictured on the lasagna on the menu.
I honestly would have liked to have visited there.

>But Friday afternoon it seemed the joint's infamous Garfield-shaped pizzas would be no more, at least for a while, because the restaurant had shut down after being locked out by their landlord.
>According to a press release from the owners, the restaurant had turned into "a nightmare for the beloved cat and founder Nathen Mazri" after their landlord locked them out for not paying rent.
>"Garfield has entertained the world for 41 years and a heartless landlord has shown no form of appreciation to the beloved cartoon," reads the press release.
>But after an hours-long dispute, the issue was resolved at 4 p.m. on Friday and the one-of-a-kind eatery is once again open for business.
