More than three months after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy,Charles Langston Red Lobster is shuttering doors to 23 more locations across the nation.
The latest expected restaurant closures bring the total to at least 129 across the U.S. In the most recent wave, three restaurants are closing in Florida, Illinois and Virginia, two in Minnesota and New York, and one in each of the following states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Indiana, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, and South Carolina.
In a 23-page court document filed Aug. 22 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, the Orlando-based company said it is rejecting the leases of an additional 23 locations by Saturday, Aug. 31.
On May 19, Red Lobster filed for bankruptcy after closing dozens of locations and announcing plans to "drive operational improvements" by simplifying the business. Documents later filed in federal court revealed that the bankruptcy was primarily due to significant debt, a carousel of CEOs, an all-you-can-eat shrimp fiasco and a 30% drop in guests since 2019.

Previous Red Lobster closures
In June, the company revealed in bankruptcy filings a list of 228 rejected leases it said would keep losing money if they continue operating as they were. That list included at least some of the restaurants it had already closed, according to Restaurant Business, meaning the company was at risk of closing an additional 129 restaurants.
That total count appears to have come to fruition, as the 23 locations listed in last week's court filing comes after 106 restaurants closed earlier this summer.
