Oprah Winfrey made a 'significant' investment in True Food Kitchen in 2018. The resturant chain is now filing for bankruptcy

True Food Kitchen, known for its health-focused dining, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection recently. The restaurant chain has closed 12 locations, retaining 34 across 14 states, which significantly impacted operations. Management changes led to inconsistent strategies for expansion, ultimately affecting profitability and customer attraction. Amid these challenges, approximately $20 million in financing has been secured for operational continuity.
