Chili John's

Chili John's is a restaurant located in Burbank, California that opened in 1946.

Lithuanian immigrant John Isaac began serving Southwestern chili at his Green Bay bar in 1900. Thirteen years later, the chili grew so popular that he renamed the establishment Chili John's. Son Ernie moved to Los Angeles and launched Chili John’s of California in 1946, installing the U-shaped counter and, since he was an avid fisherman, painted the mountain lake mural. For the past 20 years, the Loguercio family has owned Chili John’s. Owner Gene died in April 2009, and his wife Debbie has carried on with sons Anthony and Alec.
