Are You sure that application do restart?
MacOSX can just hide app in dock (kill all windows and menus, but keep 
it loaded to memory). Such app is specifically marked in dock. For FF 
and TB, to fully restart app You must select "Quit" from menu, not just 
close all windows.

Or You may use console, and use "killall" command to kill process.
