The company filed for bankruptcy protection on March 31, 2014 and again declared bankruptcy in 2016. The filings were concurrent with the closing of several Carino's locations; while Carino's once owned or franchised more than 170 restaurants across the United States, as of July 23, 2018, only about 55 Carino's locations still operate.[1]
