As of Monday, over 80 Red Lobster locations across at least 27 states were marked as “temporarily closed” on the restaurant’s website, including four in Colorado.

Adding to the situation, a liquidation company has now announced an online auction for the kitchen equipment and other contents of these closed Red Lobster locations.
