Teh best Mexican place around here is a family place called Diego's. You have to call ahead to make sure they still have enough chicken if you want something with chicken.
Edit: When Mom is working the register I occasionally have to use my pseudo-Spanish to order. "Pollo burrito, por favor," and she gives me a weird look, and I feel like a poseur. Then Hubby orders in German, just to be a jerk, and she gives him a nasty look. Hubby has issues with Spanish in America, which are not worth hours of arguments to counter. I tell him Mama probably thinks he's a neo-Nazi with family from Brazil, and he sulks.
We are doing well - we're excited, Sass is excited - and figuring it out. Jeff just came back from a hike with the dog in Rock Creek Park, so she's flopped out on the lawn. I need to nurse the baby, and think about another nap.
We also have a restaurant that serves nothing but macaroni & cheese:

In London my BiL took us to a restaurant that only served hummus, but I don't remember the name well enough to Google.
Just as Cincinnati has cookies year-round, Durham has restaurants with
multiple
dishes.

Well aren't you just fancy.

Hummus Brothers? My other half is in love with that place. (I am anticpating a fight over whether all the catering for whatever kind of party ends up being our wedding can come from there.)
In Culver City, there is a grilled cheese restaurant called Meltdown that I really need visit.
I had no idea. Now I need to visit too.

Oh dear. Now I need to go to New York. I love mac & cheese.
Speaking of, my son has a friend over & they had TJs mac & cheese for lunch. They split 1 container and asked for more! That's like 500 calories each for lunch. I have no idea what my son is doing with all that food he eats. I mean, he's growing, sure, but he isn't growing that fast.
In Huntington Beach many moons ago there use to be a place that served everything over baked Potato. That is you started with your baked potato and the poured Mac N Cheese over it. Over meatloaf over it. Or just about about any standard cafeteria dish. I guess they just took the idea of covering baked potatoes with stuff and extrapolated to an insane degree.
I also remember a place that specialized specialized in Mexican food and Sushi. NOt fusion, just offered combinations with both. Not a success. (The potato place was still in business when I left SoCal, but I have trouble believing it lasted. Baked Potato bar is one thing - just pouring any old thing over baked potato, my guess is the market for that is limited.)
Anyone else have any weird eatery concept fail stories?
