It sounds like New England’s restaurant scene is thriving, with a great mix of beloved local spots and well-known chains.
The possibility of expanding options in 2025 is exciting, especially with fast-growing brands looking to enter the region.
Bonchon and Fogo De Chão would both be fantastic additions—Korean fried chicken has a devoted following, and Brazilian steakhouses offer a unique, all-you-can-eat dining experience that would surely attract a crowd.
Are there any other chains you’re hoping to see make their way into New England? Maybe something that hasn’t had much presence there yet, like In-N-Out or Raising Cane’s.
