Mostly because very few people eat there more than occasionally. People get fat from daily fast food and from the shit in their refrigerator being rammed down their throats with both hands.

I've only eaten there twice because 1) the food isn't that special and 2) it's EXPENSIVE. Definitely not a place you go often unless you're rich or high income or just like to throw away your money.
