R&R Brands, a new multibrand restaurant group led by Scott Taylor, has made a strategic investment in Brio Italian Grill and Bravo Italian Kitchen.
The two Italian casual-dining chains, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in August, will be managed by R&R Brands. Previously, they were owned and operated by Earl Enterprises, the parent company of Bertucci’s, Planet Hollywood, and Earl of Sandwich.
At R&R, Brio and Bravo will join other brands, including Party Fowl, Cody’s Original Roadhouse, and Santa Fe Cattle Co., as well as multiple locations of Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux and two movie theaters.
R&R Brands will look to revitalize the two Italian casual-dining chains.
