A second location of a South Shore restaurant has shut down, and a new dining spot could replace it, though plans for that space are now in question.
According to an article in the Patriot Ledger, Rivershed in Weymouth Landing is no longer in operation, though a check on its original location in Scituate indicates that it remains in operation. The article mentions that the people behind Liberty Tavern in Quincy have been hoping to open Tres Burros in the space, though it isn't a sure thing because the planning board wants to limit the seating to 88 due to a lack of parking and the lawyer for the prospective owners says they might decide against moving forward with the plans if they aren't allowed to have more seating. The issue is slated to be looked at further in a meeting on February 27.
Rivershed first opened in Weymouth Landing in the fall of 2020, offering Southern-style fare including chili, fried pickles, po'boys, macaroni and cheese, chicken and waffles, and salmon.
The address for the now-closed location of Rivershed in Weymouth Landing was 35-37 Commercial Street, Braintree, MA, 02184. The website for the Scituate location can be found at https://www.therivershed.com/
