Several recent restaurant closings suggest that the Hampton Roads economy is still shaky. But analysts and restaurant owners say that other factors also play into the often unpredictable restaurant scene.

In the past week, Frank Beamer's American Grill and JoJack's Espresso Bar & Café closed at Peninsula Town Center, while Jefferson Commons in Newport News lost the Silver Diner. Locations of the Silver Diner in Chesapeake and Virginia Beach also have closed.
