               This Statement amends the Statement on Schedule 13D filed
     with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") by GSB
     Holdings, Inc. ("GSB"), Great South Beach Improvement Co.
     ("Improvement"), and David H. Clarke (collectively referred to herein
     as the "Beneficial Owners"), with respect to their beneficial
     ownership of the Common Stock, par value $.16-2/3 per share ("Common
     Stock"), of Ground Round Restaurants, Inc., a New York corporation
     (the "Company"), as previously amended by Amendments Nos. 1 through 5
     thereto.  Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used
     herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in previous filings of
     the Schedule 13D.

     Item 4  Purpose of Transaction.
             ----------------------
               On November 16, 1994, the Merger Agreement was amended to
     extend its termination date and eliminate its "break up" fee. 
     Concurrently, the Shareholder Agreement was terminated pursuant to a
     termination agreement, dated November 16, 1994, by and among GSB,
     Parent and Purchaser (the "Termination Agreement").  HM Holdings,
     Inc., another shareholder of the Company, entered into a substantially
     identical termination agreement with Parent and Purchaser on the same
     date, which terminated its substantially identical shareholder
     agreement with Parent and Purchaser.

               A copy of the Termination Agreement has been filed as
     Exhibit 4 to this Amendment No. 6 and is incorporated herein by
     reference.

     Item 6  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
             --------------------------------------------------------
             with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
             ----------------------------------------
               The description of the termination of the Shareholder
     Agreement contained in Item 4 is incorporated in this Item 6 by
     reference.

     Item 7  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
             --------------------------------
               The following is filed herewith as an Exhibit to this
     Statement on Schedule 13D:

               4.   Termination Agreement, dated November 16, 1994, by and
     among GRR, Inc., GRR Acquisition Corp. and GSB Holdings, Inc.
