So it did...but McD's became world famous whereas Gino's is still a local franchise.

true thats what happened when Marriott bought them then merged them with roy rogers back in 82
here is some history In the early 1970's, Gino's purchased the Rustler Steak House chain which was founded by Joe Campanella in Baltimore. Rustler featured top-quality steak meals at budget prices. Many Rustler locations were then located next to Gino's restaurants. The Rustler buildings featured an Old West exterior and frontier interior. Meals were usually served cafeteria-style by staff dressed in Western outfits. By 1972 there were 14 Rustler restaurants, growing to 147 by the end of 1978.
In early 1982 Gino's, by this time headquarted in the Philadelphia suburbs, was sold to the Marriott Corporation. Mariott purchased the chain to increase the presence of its Roy Roger's Restaurant chain. With this, 180 of the 313 Gino's locations were converted to Roy Roger's outlets, the remaining stores-those with an existing Roy Roger's nearby or poor locations- were closed and sold.
The dismantling of the Gino's chain opened the areas they operated in to Kentucky Fried Chicken, which allowed KFC operate their own stores where previously Gino's held the rights to sell KFC. KFC purchased many former Gino's from Mariott and began a major expansion in these areas.

There's the one at Camden Yards and two within 30 minutes from my house. One of these days...I'm usually just too lazy to walk over to the Gino's at the yard. Going this Friday and Sunday. Sunday I'll go get the Gino Giant.
