Chi-Chi's Tex-Mex Revival: Iconic Chain Returns After 20 Years

TL;DR
Chi-Chi's, a once-popular Mexican restaurant chain that went bankrupt in 2004, is set to reopen in 2025. The brand's trademark, owned by Outback Steakhouse, will be used by Michael McDermott, son of Chi-Chi's founder, to launch new restaurants. Chi-Chi's had continued to exist through prepackaged foods, and the new venture aims to offer an updated dining experience while retaining the original flavors.
