Another Unexpected Restaurant Now Closes Following Bankruptcy

May 2, 2024

Another unexpected restaurant now closes following bankruptcy from its parent company, which also shut all locations of another franchise.

Boxer, a popular Portland, Oregon, ramen chain, shut down all four of its locations on April 29, almost three months after filing for Chapter 11 protection seeking to reorganize.

Burger chain SuperDeluxe, which operates three locations in Oregon, has also been included in the bankruptcy filing.

SuperDeluxe and Boxer’s parent, MMMco., which is owned by Micah Camden, closed two of the burger chain’s restaurants because they did not have drive-thru service, according to Willamette Week.

SuperDeluxe’s locations in southeast Portland, Sherwood and Bend, Oregon, are listed on its website as open.

SuperDeluxe serves both beef and vegan burgers, chicken sandwiches and chicken nuggets, fries, breakfast egg and cheese sandwiches with avocado, bacon and sausage options, hash browns and a variety of soft drinks and shakes.

The two restaurant chains reportedly employed approximately 240 workers prior to the bankruptcy filing, per TheStreet.

MMMco. also operates restaurant brands Kinnamons and Baes Chicken, which are not included in the bankruptcy.

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.
