CHI--CHI-S Restaurants Set for Comeback After Two Decades
Michael McDermott is determined to honor his family's legacy by combining the classic CHI-CHI’S™ restaurant experience with modern influences
It’s been 20 years since diners could enjoy a meal at CHI-CHI'S™ Restaurants, the once-popular Mexican restaurant chain that shuttered its last location in 2004. Now, thanks to a new agreement with Hormel Foods (owner of CHI-CHI'S™ trademarks), Michael McDermott, son of the chain’s co-founder Marno McDermott, is on track to revive the family’s restaurants, using the CHI-CHI'S™ name on physical locations expected to open in 2025.
Michael McDermott plans to honor his family's legacy by combining the classic CHI-CHI’S™ restaurant experience with modern influences.
"I still have fond memories of growing up in the CHI-CHI'S™ restaurants that my father built throughout their time, instilling in me the passion and determination to pursue my own career in the restaurant industry," Michael McDermott, founder of the new CHI-CHI'S™ Restaurants, LLC, said in a news release. "We have seen the impact our restaurant has had on individuals and families across the country and believe there is a strong opportunity to bring the brand back in a way that resonates with today's consumer — an updated dining experience with the same great taste and Mexican flavor."
