China Coast was a casual dining American restaurant chain owned by Darden Restaurants Inc., specializing in American Chinese cuisine.
Founded in 1990 in Orlando, Florida,[1] China Coast was intended to join Olive Garden and Red Lobster as Darden's signature properties.[2] It had been expected by executives to become the top Chinese-style restaurant chain in the U.S. by the latter half of the 1990s, but abruptly closed in 1995 due to poor reception and mounting financial losses.[2]
