Restaurant Chain Shuts Last Location In New Jersey

CHERRY HILL, NJ — The "Brio Italian Grille" along Haddonfield Road officially closed on Monday, according to notes posted on the business.

Brio's Haddonfield Road location will become a "Fogo de Chão" Brazilian steakhouse at some point in the future, according to an approved zoning permit obtained by Patch.

The new developers are planning to fully enclose the awning-covered outdoor area and reduce the amount of seating from 367 to 296.

Brio, known for a variety of dishes like flatbreads and pasta prepared with a nod to Tuscany in Italy, closed its restaurants in Marlton and Freehold Raceway Mall earlier this year.

Both shutdowns follow an August 2025 filing by its owners, "Bravo Brio Restaurants," for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

This was their second Chapter 11 submission in just five years. At the time, the company said that it would begin to close underperforming locations.

Cherry Hill was one of only 19 left in the company's portfolio.

It was not immediately clear if Monday's shutdown was due to bankruptcy filings.

Patch has reached out to Brio for more on both the Marlton and Cherry Hill developments, and is yet to hear back.
