An unexpected restaurant is now closing all locations in Oregon including two new spots after it left a ‘heavy’ note to diners.
Boxer Ramen in Portland, Oregon shared a heartfelt message with customers and explained the reason for the unexpected closures.
The chain shuttered its four restaurants on April 29 after 11 years in operation.
Boxer Ramen had three spots in the Portland metro area and one branch in Beaverton.
Two of these spots were opened this year, with the Multnomah Village hitting the scene in January, and its Cedar Hills outlet opened in December, according to Willamette Week.
The small chain shared a message to its customers on Instagram, that blamed several factors for the closure.
“It is with a very heavy heart we announce that after 11 years of serving you our unique brand of Ramen, we sadly will be closing all of our doors for good this upcoming Monday the 29th,” the post said.
“The incredible challenges that we all faced as a community during the pandemic, compounded by inflated costs of goods and services, have not only profoundly affected our restaurant, but all of us and our communities as a whole.”
Boxer Ramen encouraged its fans to visit one of the locations for the last time this weekend for a meal.
“But most of all, we would love to just say goodbye to all of you that we grew up with over the last 11 years,” the post added.
“You truly are our family and we will miss each and every one of you dearly.”
Boxer Ramen’s parent company, MMMco., filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on February 8.

A popular Italian restaurant now announces an unexpected closure after nine years in business, according to an email sent to customers.
Italian Eatery, located in south Minneapolis, Minnesota, told its long-time customers that it planned to shut its doors.
The beloved restaurant, also known as ie, also plans to close its sister restaurant un dito, known for its Sicilian seaside street food, per The US Sun.
They have not announced a closing date but are expected to close between late May and mid-June, according to Bring Me The News.
“As we prepare to close our doors at ie and un dito, we’d like to extend a heartfelt invitation for you to join us for our final months of service,” an email to customers from Carrara $ Co. read.
“Gather with us at the table and let us reminisce over the incredible memories we’ve created together and cherish the moments shared over the past nine years.”
Italian Eatery has been a popular spot since its opening in 2016 and is known for its full-service drinks and dining near Lake Nokomis.
Un dito is a 400-square-foot space that specializes in sips and snacks or afternoon gatherings like you would see in Italy, according to its website.
The restaurant’s “Last Supper” reservations will be released every week and shared in weekly newsletters, according to its website.
“As always, we will continue to reserve walk-in tables at both ie + un dito for our beloved neighborhood,” the announcement read, according to the outlet.
Carrara & Co. also owns due, a focacceria and Italian market in St. Paul, Minnesota that the company calls “Italian Eatery’s spawn, aka quirky little brother,” according to its website.
Despite the Minneapolis closures, due will remain open.
“I’m pleased to inform you that all other Carrara & Co operations remain unaffected, including Due Focacceria, and we are even expanding our services,” according to a statement, reported by NBC affiliate KARE.
