The struggling Ruby Tuesday restaurant chain will close 30 of its 779 restaurants during 2014 as it attempts to restore profitability, according to Nation’s Restaurant News.

The stores to be closed were not identified.

The Maryville, Tenn.-based restaurant chain has faced several quarters of negative same-store sales and has undergone corporate layoffs and a leadership change, NRN said.

Ruby Tuesday has a restaurant on Glendale Avenue in Toledo, as well as locations in Monroe, Sandusky, and Lima, according to the chain’s Web site.
