History
The company claimed its origin to Larry Cano who, in 1954 with the opening of the first El Torito restaurant, expanded into a chain. Other origins were the founders of Acapulco Mexican Restaurant and Cantina in 1960. In 1998, Acapulco belonged to private equity firm Bruckmann, Rosser, Sherrill & Co., which developed it into a Real Mex Restaurant, bought El Torito, Chevy's Fresh Mex, and other full-service Mexican chains. The company's reach is now nationwide, and the company claims to be the largest Mexican restaurant chain in the United States.
In October 2011, the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. In February 2012, it was sold to a group of debt holders. The company is now owned by an investment group that includes Z Capital Partners.
Real Mex Restaurant's portfolio includes: El Torito, Acapulco Mexican Restaurant and Cantina, Chevy's Fresh Mex, El Torito Grill, El Paso Cantina, Yang Song and Larry's and California Southern Las Brisas marker from Laguna Beach.
