Bravo Brio (BRIO) Files Second Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in 2025

Bravo Brio Restaurant Group filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy for the second time in August 2025 in Florida, following earlier struggles that led to the company operating 38 total restaurants, down from a peak of 130. The chain, which competes with Olive Garden (DRI), cited economic pressures, including inflation and rising costs, as significant factors impacting performance. The company aims to restructure by closing underperforming locations and cutting costs. As reported, the brand currently has 19 remaining locations each for its Bravo and Brio names across 10 states.
