The company behind a popular Italian restaurant chain has filed for bankruptcy for the second time in five years. Bravo Brio Restaurants, the company behind Brio Italian Grille and Bravo! Italian Kitchen, a pair of upscale Italian chain restaurants, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Monday.
In October, these brands received “strategic investment” funding from R&R Brands.
