An Ohio-based restaurant chain that once boasted multiple Columbus locations, and more than 10 throughout the state, is preparing to shutter all of its eateries outside of the Cleveland area.
According to statement posted to its social media accounts earlier this week by owner Matt Fish, Melt Bar & Grilled will close its Akron and Mentor locations on Aug. 11 and Aug. 25,
The announcement comes after Melt was sued by Easton Town Center—where one of its locations once operated—and after it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy

The eatery, known for its indulgent grilled cheeses, at one point operated two Columbus storefronts, one in the Short North and the other at Easton. Both of these restaurants are now closed.
“This decision was very difficult to make on a personal and professional level. Operating multiple locations is unfortunately not sustainable for the immediate or long-term future,” Fish’s statement reads. “This difficult decision was made to ensure Melt Bar & Grilled will continue and succeed with a much smaller footprint.”
Fish also announced Melt’s Lakewood location will be undergoing renovations between Sept. 2-9.

Following the closures, Melt’s only remaining locations are in Cleveland, where the concept began. They operate one location in Lakewood, and two other stores on the campus of Case Western Reserve University and Progressive Field.
