Briazz was a Seattle based sandwich restaurant chain founded in 1995. At one time its stores reached across America as far as Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. [1] [2] [3] [4]

In June, 2004, Briazz filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. [5] Then in April, 2005, Organic To Go won an auction to buy most of Briazz's assets for $1.35 million. Organic To Go was to replace the Briazz brand with its own at 12 out of the 15 existing Briazz locations. [6]
