5 Outdated Steakhouse Chains That Are Making a Comeback

The popularity of steakhouses often ebbs and flows with the economic tides. When things are great, Americans like to treat themselves to a steak dinner.

And while Americans generally love their steak, some dine-in chains specializing in meat have experienced challenges thanks to changing conditions over the years.

Founded in 1966, Steak and Ale was one of the first steakhouse chains that offered a casual dining experience all for an affordable price.

Black Angus Steakhouse got its start in 1964 in Seattle, Wash., offering steak, soup, salad, and a baked potato for $2.99.

Logan's Roadhouse had everything going for it when it first opened in Lexington, Ky. in 1991.

In the '90s, if Americans wanted a little taste of Australia, all they had to do was take a trip to their local Outback, which was brimming with enthusiastic BBQ lovers.

Del Frisco's is an upscale fine dining group consisting of the Double Eagle and Del Fresco's Grille brands. The restaurant operator has received numerous awards and accolades for its top-notch steakhouses.

The chain was eventually bought by Landry's, the owner and operator of the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company and the Rainforest Café.
