ITEM 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On November 6, 2009, Landry’s Restaurants, Inc. determined that it did not properly consider the accreted value of its redeemable non-controlling interests arising from its right to acquire a minority interest in T-Rex Cafe, Inc. in its determination of net income available to Landry’s common stockholders in the first and second quarter of 2009. The Company will amend its quarterly filings on Form 10-Q. Such amendment will have no effect on the Company’s cash flows or financial position. The amended filings will reflect the following:

		Three Months Ended March 31, 2009						Three Months Ended June 30, 2009						Six Months Ended June 30, 2009
