Sad news.

Mangia Pizza, a local chain that specializes in a pretty good version of Chicago stuffed pizza, filed a Chapter 11 petition on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old company has two restaurants in Austin, one in Round Rock and a location at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Two more Austin locations, at the Domain and on Lake Austin Boulevard, are independently owned and not part of the bankruptcy.

  1. I was previously unaware that those two locations were independently owned.
  2. “At the Domain”? If there’s a location at the Domain, I am unaware of it. There is a location in a strip center near-ish to the Domain, but not “at the Domain”.

    The north Austin location on Gracy Farms (presumably the one listed as “at the Domain” has only been independently owned for a year or so. One time when I tried to order pizza from that location, I noticed that the store had disappeared from the Mangia website. I found their phone number via Google, called them, and discovered that it was still open, but was informed about the ownership change.

    Do the two remaining locations meet the standards of the site traditionally used for pre-ArmadilloCon pizza fests? Further research may be justified.

    Well:

    1. Remember that Chapter 11 is a re-organization, not a liquidation.
    2. I haven’t heard anything about any locations closing yet.
    3. The Gracy Farms location is decent enough. I think we could do the pizza lunch there, if it came to that.
  4. […] We previously noted the Chapter 11 filing of Mangia Pizza. […]
