Crescent Moon files for bankruptcy

The parent company of Crescent Moon, a three-restaurant chain in metro Atlanta, has filed for Chapter 11 reorganization in U.S. Bankruptcy Court.

Crescent Moon, with its nostalgic diner motif and comfort food offerings like meat loaf platters and fried green tomatoes, was a hit with families and couples at its downtown Decatur location on Ponce de Leon Avenue.

It also operated at Northlake Mall in DeKalb County and near the Mall of Georgia in Gwinnett County.

Global Restaurant Group LLC made the bankruptcy filing on July 10. The restaurant has continued to operate.

The attorney representing Global, Paul Reece Marr, could not be reached for comment.
