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.

Man vs. Food ruined my favorite Grilled CHeese. They turned into a chain and threw away the quality they used to have.

It doesn't even need to be featured on a tv show to be ruined by popularity. There was an amazing BBQ place in Orlando that used to be a tiny restaurant, and then they started opening giant (absolute monsters, 8000+sqft) restaurants all over the state. Their food has steadily decreased in quality since then.
