An eatery known for clogging arteries in downtown Las Vegas has closed its doors after 15 years.

Heart Attack Grill, infamous for its Quadruple Bypass Burgers, large outdoor scale (those 350 pounds or heavier ate free), and hospital theme, closed at 9 a.m. Monday, as confirmed by Neonopolis owner Rohit Joshi.

The restaurant’s website on Monday displayed a bold statement that pointed at high prices in Las Vegas casinos, “corporate greed,” exclusion of the middle class and the restaurant being considered “gauche.”

“Our core value, ‘eat big and laugh loud,’ no longer fits a city peddling forty-dollar ‘artisanal avocado toast.’ The honest, heavy-duty calories that built our reputation are now considered gauche by a city that has excluded the middle class and lost its swagger in the process,” the statement read in part.

It goes on to add that America’s obesity rate went from 30 percent to nearly 45 percent in the restaurant’s 21 years (originating in Tempe, Arizona), and “we pat ourselves on the back for leading the charge!”
