Michelle Trachtenberg was so sick during her last outing that she could hardly run a flight of restaurant staircases, Daily Mail can reveal.
The meager appearance of the star is stunned in the restaurant of Sartiano in Soho, New York.
It was Thursday, February 20, less than a week before the tragic Gossip Girl star was found dead by her mother in her apartment in Manhattan.
“She really didn't look good, just like very sickly,” said an employee on Wednesday, talking about the state of anonymity.
“She was thin, as small, she couldn't walk down the stairs. She was not in a great mood, it was not the best impression. '
“It's spooky because she was here on Thursday evening last week,” the employee added.
'We only discovered (her death) a few hours ago and it is really sad. She was just with another person, a woman who was really nice. '
Restaurant owner Scott Sartiano brought a moving tribute to the star on Wednesday evening, less than a week after she was last seen in the hotspot in the city center with another woman.

Trachtenberg has been worried about her last Instagram reports in recent weeks and months
“Crime is not suspected. The medical researcher will determine the cause of death. The investigation keeps going. '
Last year Trachtenberg went to Instagram to create speculation about its meager appearance.
She denied rumors that she had undergone cosmetic surgery and added that she was 'happy and healthy'.
Trachtenberg's last message, shared on Instagram earlier this month, saw the actress look brittle while he posed for a selfie for a hedge.
Patients such as Trachtenberg can receive a liver transplant after damaging the vital organ with excessive drinking.
Alcoholics who have received a transplant must then refrain from drinking.
But liver transplants can also cause potentially fatal complications, even for people who follow the rules afterwards.
As is the case with any other transplantation, organ receivers must take powerful immunosuppressants every day for the rest of their lives to prevent their bodies from rejecting the new organ.
