Byron's Kitchen Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Amid Fast-Food Industry Decline

Byron's Kitchen, a Chicago-based fast-food chain, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to restructure its financial obligations. The chain, which has been in operation since 1975, has two remaining locations and recently invested in upgrades. The filing comes amid a wave of restaurant closures and restructurings in the food industry, with big-name chains like Wendy's, Pizza Hut, and Papa John's also announcing closures.
