Location does have alot to do with the success of a restaurant but more than anything, but I think it's the owners that make or break a place.  Their presence in the operation is vital.  Someone once told me that to have a successful bar/restaurant another part of your life will fail...  more time and energy making a place work means less time and energy making other parts of your life work.  I have seen many owners with thriving businesses not any sort of home life whatsoever, the ones who tried to balance the two usually ended up with losses in both, and the ones who let others run things for them had their business run in the ground.  Look at Oskars (not one of my favorites, btw), she is there almost every time I have been and that place has held it's own to spite the ups and downs of the economy.  The Cove (I actually worked there for a while) on the other hand was managed by someone other than the owner and did poorly.  Yes, their prices were high, but they did change the menu a few times (adding more of a range in prices), tried the breakfast and seafood buffet, and tried holiday events, and things still didn't pick up for them.  I honestly think that the original management made the place so that it gave many locals a bad taste for them in them from the beginning.  Other management along the line were much better but couldn't recover from existing opinions of the place.  With that said...  I am so glad to see the Green Valley location reopen, I have really missed it, but they need to think about things like that.  They are either all in or not.
