The operator of casual Italian dining chain Romano’s Macaroni Grill won approval to move forward with its reorganization plan, which will see many of its locations and jobs saved, WSJ Pro Bankruptcy reported. Bankruptcy Judge Mary Walrath on Wednesday signed off on the plan, about four months after the company, Mac Acquisition LLC, sought chapter 11 protection. The plan will allow many of the chain’s restaurants to remain open, as well as save roughly 4,600 jobs. In 2017, Macaroni Grill closed 37 unprofitable locations. In total, Macaroni Grill had about 93 restaurants in 23 states.
