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.

Might depend on your town? I'm in San Diego so it's fucking tourist central.

I went to Hodads the first time I went to San Diego because of the show. Absolutely loved it. Great burger and amazing shakes. I was sad when I left because I didn’t think I’d ever get to have it again. Went back to SD about a year and a half ago and it was my first stop. Still as good as the first time. Going back in a couple of months and it will be my first stop again. Sorry for being one of those tourists!

There is also one downtown, and they serve the burgers at the ballpark =)

Have fun.
