What dead restaraunt would you bring back?

I miss when Applebees didn't suck and was still around in my area.

Olive Garden used to be as common as Pizza Hut in Canada but they now have less than 10 restaurants left here, because the lower dollar value in Canada means profit margins are higher in America. And in my city, they used to have an amazing buffet called Imperial Buffet but they spontaneously shut down one day. For 2 years I could enjoy endless all you can eat oysters and crab legs at a lower price than Mandarin buffet. Now I feel sorry for the old owners even though I have no idea who owned or ran imperial buffet.

There's like 5 Olive Gardens in my area lol

"Folks". it was a southern restaraunt that used to be all over the place in the atlanta area. By the time i moved i think there was one left. I remember that shit being good when i was a kid.

It’s not quite dead but closing soon, after over 75 years. I’d save Kowloon in Saugus, Massachusetts, USA.

(Does anyone else want to choke out the dude from this video? I’m being mean for no reason, but something about him just makes me want to brain him with a tube sock full of nickels, lmfao.)

Polynesian-themed Chinese restaurants seem to be dying out, and this is the king of them, at least in my universe. So I’d preemptively bring this one back, haha.

Love's BBQ had many locations in southern California at one time. They used to have good food.

I’d bring back the old-school Pizza Hut with the red roofs and dine-in buffet 🥲

Those heavy red cups, the smell of baking pan pizzas, and the salad bar with way too many croutons felt magical as a kid. It was one of my first “restaurant” memories, like a tiny adventure before I discovered real Neapolitan pizza in Italy.

Shorty‘s BBQ in Miami Florida it has been there for 75 years it’s close to my house and it’s now going out of business. It’s a shame I’ve spent so much of my time eating there. Awesome barbecue. One time the whole restaurant caught on fire and the wood was burning all around, but they made a come back and they resumed right there on the same property.

Even when I was younger when I was working downtown Miami, taking the metro rail back around 11 o’clock at night, I would sit at Shorty‘s barbecue from the Metrorail on their bench that they had outside and wait for my mother to pick me up and there were still people inside, cleaning up the restaurant, the cooks and all

I kinda feel similarly about Chili’s. They’re still pretty much everywhere, but the quality has gone way downhill.
There was a fantastic “greasy spoon” joint called “The Clock” in a town that i lived in. Their breakfast menu was out of this world good. I have no idea why they closed. I would bring that place back if i could.
