Chi-Chi's Mexican Restaurant Revives After 20-Year Hiatus

Chi-Chi's, the once-popular Tex-Mex restaurant chain, is set to return over 20 years after closing its last location. Hormel Foods, which owns the Chi-Chi's trademarks, has granted Michael McDermott, son of co-founder Marno McDermott, the rights to open new restaurant locations in 2025. Chi-Chi's, which once had over 200 locations, filed for bankruptcy in the early 2000s and closed its last restaurant in 2004 following a hepatitis A outbreak. The revival will be managed by Chi-Chi’s Restaurants, LLC, a new company formed by Michael McDermott.
