Eater SF has been running a column announcing restaurant closures for quite a while now, but this one caught our eye: Berkeley Semifreddi's will close at the end of this month. According to Berkeleyside, increased difficulty in hiring, increasing wages, and escalating rents are the reasons. This is another instance of a decades-old local restaurant shutting its doors in the face of economic pressures. Genova Delicatessen, a 90-year-old neighborhood fixture just a few blocks away, closed its doors in May of this year.
