20 of Chicago’s Most Beloved Closed Diners

"Retro mid-century charm was the main attraction at Depot American Diner, which embraced nostalgia with blue-plate specials, egg creams, phosphates, and fresh pies for dessert. Depot earned a nod from Flavortown mayor Guy Fieri and was featured in a 2009 episode of Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives." - Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam
