Restaurant That Never Has Customers Celebrates Fifth Weird Year

CHICAGO—The Royale restaurant near Rogers Park commemorated its fifth weird year of business Monday the same way it celebrated its opening: with a vague attempt to attract customers by stringing brightly colored plastic flags from the mysterious eatery's storefront to a nearby utility pole.

Residents have passed by the fluorescent-lit restaurant since 2006, bearing witness to three "under new management" signs, the promise of live music on Tuesdays, and 24 mismatched and empty chairs. "They're offering a 'buy one, get the second half-price' special," local woman Michelle Durkin said. "But it doesn't say what you have to buy one of. Actually, I've never really been too clear on what kind of food they serve there.

Money laundering location

Looks like the restaurant used in a multiple murder scene in an episode of CSI!

Whenever I see restaurants that never have customers in them I always assume they’re just a money laundering operation... 💰

I give them an A for Albanian.

Ha, the photo is the inside of the Morning Glory diner in Philly

there's an indie film in there somewhere :)

Silly, the basement is a 24/7 casino, with every game, open bar, dope, prostitutes, and a fabulous free buffet!

I used to live next to an Italian place that not only never had customers, but was also only open for a few hours a week! It was a running joke that it must be owned by the mob.
