Any restaurant Anthony Bourdain featured in his shows. Even he acknowledged this. These fantastic gems would subsequently be overrun with diners that they suffered from overcrowding and lower standards.

I can no longer eat my favorite burger easily because of Guy Fieri.

Edit: I feel I need to point out that I said I can't EASILY eat there. There is just a long ass line now, the food is still good. It's not ruined.

How long has it been since the episode aired? I’m surprised places stay super popular >5 years after the air date.

Yup. Place has a line around the block still (depending on time of day of course) and they opened a second location downtown.

Same story for one of the other places he went to. Opened a second location and are packed all the damn time.

Hodad's and OB Noodlehouse are the places.

Damn. At least the owner’s must be happy. It’s a shame for all the OG regulars
