The Chili’s restaurant in Irvine, California, has closed its doors after almost 30 years, leaving locals mourning the loss. The closure follows the recent closures of Chili’s in Aliso Viejo and Paso Robles, California, raising concerns about the chain’s future. Despite the sadness, locals are also looking forward to the opening of a new family-owned dining restaurant in the former Chili’s location early next year.
