A GLASGOW restaurant has suddenly shut down to “focus on family”.
Dirty Fries Guys has announced they will be closing down on Wednesday, August 6.
The popular restaurant in Port Dundas, North Glasgow, couldn’t find new staff to sustain the business.
It comes as members of the current team are expecting a baby and have young families and could no longer give the same time to the company.
We previously reported on the restaurant when they first opened their doors in March, just five months ago.

They had focused on serving homemade food for takeaway and delivery, and now are urging punters to try their dishes before it is too late.
The restaurant is located at 465 Pinkston Road and sells breakfast, burgers, loaded fries, wings and wraps and more.
Dirty Fries Guys posted on Facebook saying: “So…unfortunately as of Wednesday we will be closing down.
“We can't find someone suitable to join the team and with a baby on the way in two months and a one-year-old to think of we have come to the decision that timing just isn't right for this wee venture.
“Babies aren't babies forever and we need this time right now to focus on our families.
“So, if you want to try some top-notch scran you better get down before Wednesday while stock lasts.”
Customers were quick to respond in the comments with their own thoughts.
Lorraine Ann McClelland said: “Very hard decision.
“You girls will not regret it, lots of family fun time to enjoy before it flys by yous x”

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
