Summary
Tex-Mex restaurant chain On The Border has closed all 60 of its company-owned locations across the U.S. after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March 2025. The chain was acquired by Houston-based Pappas Restaurants in May 2025 following an auction, and Pappas has since overhauled the menu. The closures mark the end of company-operated locations, though the brand continues under new ownership with a revamped culinary approach.
