, reporting liabilities of more than $1.4 million and assets of about $338,000. While it operated two dozen locations across seven states, the chain's franchisees were experiencing major losses and announcing they may be forced to shutter their restaurants.However, the chain has emerged from bankruptcy on December 7, and it's far from the end of the road for the regional darling and its fans.

The chain started as a family affair, founded by Raymond"Griff" Griffin and wife Belinda in Colorado in 2010. The entrepreneurial couple used 100-year-old recipes for gumbos, fried fish platters, and po'boys to develop the chain's menu with a traditional Cajun flair. The first franchisee was onboarded in 2015.
