LAKE GROVE, NY — Bobby’s Burger Palace in Lake Grove's Smith Haven Mall, part of a small chain owned by chef Bobby Flay, has closed due to the coronavirus outbreak, Newsday reported. Flay, a Food Network standout, didn't commit to whether the location, which has been around since 2008, would reopen.

"Making any permanent decisions in regards to any of my restaurants in the middle of a pandemic just wouldn’t be prudent," Flay told Newsday. "For the time being we are instilling the idea of extreme patience until the smoke clears from these unfortunate times. At this very moment there are no concrete plans to reopen BBP Lake Grove. If that changes we will let the community that has been so faithful to us there for the last 13 years know immediately."
