Mencius, Oriental Gardens, Pete's Burgers, J. Christopher's was but was sold to new owners I believe years ago, Bill's Cafe, Whatever opens in the spot where Ninfa's was. None last more than six months. Not sure about the Mexican restaurants except the crappy one in Forest Cove. Not sure if Union Kitchen is. Chelsea Deli has been owned by the same family for like 30 years. There are other Chelsea Deli location, but it's not a "chain" restaurant.
@DVaz: Rigo's opened in the old Ninfa's spot and had a booming business when I was last there. Did something happen and have they closed now as well? 4951
