Mr. Steak
This chain of steakhouses was popular in the 1970s. Unfortunately, these steaks weren’t juicy enough to keep ahead of the competition from upstart steakhouse chains, such as Stuart Anderson’s Black Angus and the California-based Sizzler. In 1987, Mr. Steak folded after bankruptcy. The chain had almost 300 locations all over the U.S. at its peak.
