I was thinking in general more about ornamentation and flair used in architecture and industrial design, not just for the restaurants.
But even in the context of some of those chains. I noticed those places which explicitly do the cluttered junk old-time whimsy are fine. Cracker Barrel for example, has been doing great over the years. Its stock in the last 10 years went from $30 to $160. The interesting thing about it, it doesn't aspire to be cool in a fancy way. TGI Friday wants to be a bit classy-cool. But it can't keep up with the times. Ruby Tuesday same thing. For example, in 10 years its stock went from $30 to $6.
