Hamilton County magistrate approves six Frisch’s Big Boy evictions

CINCINNATI (ENQUIRER) - A Hamilton County magistrate on Wednesday approved the eviction of Frisch's Big Boys restaurants from six sites, giving them seven days to vacate the properties, our partner at the Cincinnati Enquirer confirm from court records.

The latest evicted Frisch's restaurants are:

The looming threat of closures comes as Frisch's Restaurants admitted Oct. 23 it faces an unspecified number of evictions from several unspecified locations due to "unforeseen circumstances." Court records reveal "more than 20" properties face eviction in Southwest Ohio – or a quarter of Frisch's Restaurants' 78 total locations in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. Records also show the landlord claims Frisch's owes more than $4.5 million in rent.

The decision comes one day after a Clermont County municipal judge approved the eviction of Frisch's from locations in Loveland and Bethel. The restaurant chain's landlord, Orlando-based NNN Reit Inc. , also filed to boot the eatery out of another location in Batavia, court officials confirmed.

Last week, Frisch's also shut down two other locations: at 1330 Columbus Ave. in Lebanon and at 3560 S. Dixie Highway in Middletown.

The iconic local eatery faces further potential closures in Hamilton County: four other restaurants face eviction during a scheduled Nov. 6 hearing, according to Hamilton County records. Those other restaurants are in: in Anderson Township, Forest Park, Green Township and Harrison.

NNN owns 66 Frisch's properties , according to its portfolio on its website, nnnreit.com .
