I'm not talking about location. I'm talking about headquarters, or chain restaurants that started in your area.

Applebees started in metro Atlanta and moved its headquarters from Atlanta to the Kansas City suburbs.

The Black Bear Diner is our "local". Started in Strawberry Valley/Mt Shasta, CA. They are headquartered in Susanville, CA. Still small town minded.

The best known local "chain restaurant" that was started and is based in Orange County, CA is Wahoo's Fish Tacos. It is one of the few places that resembles a casual dining restaurant that I like to eat at once a week or so (fish tacos of course). Reasonable prices too, it is a local icon. They have about 30 location, has recently expanded to Colorado and soon Northern Cal.

Arby's, Applebee's, Chili's, Buffalo Wild Wings, and Native New Yorker.

The Applebee's in the Metrocenter area of N. Phoenix is the best!!!

Native New Yorker in Mesa is my favorite one!! (they just had a buffalo wings eating contest yesterday. I wasn't there, but I saw it on the news).
