The establishment, known \u2064for its \u2063location at\u200b 5920 Sunset Blvd, was a\u200d longtime staple serving both locals and\u200c tourists.\u2064 Marilyn Levitone, who \u200chas owned the restaurant since it opened in January 1969, pointed \u200bto the increased minimum wage requirement and the economic strain from the pandemic as key factors in the decision to close. \u2062She expressed regret that she had to\u200c shut down after 55 successful years.\u200c The\u200b closure reflects a \u2062broader trend affecting restaurants\u200c across California, where rising costs and regulatory changes are making business operations \u2063increasingly unviable.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section>\n<p>An Arby\u2019s location in Hollywood that has been called \u201ciconic\u201d closed its doors for good this past week after it fell victim to California\u2019s new $20 an<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/shocker-californias-minimum-wage-hike-leads-to-job-cuts\/\" title=\"Surprise!
