4:09 PM EDT on July 8, 2025

We have bad news for those who never got to try a Zumwalt burger.

Earlier today, the Oklahoma Tourism Department announced they have closed all Lookout Kitchen locations at Oklahoma State Parks.

The news comes just weeks after it was reported that the chain – which took over operations following the Swadley’s Foggy Bottom Swindle in 2023 – owes the state over $200,000 in back payments and other contractual obligations.
