Universal, which owns “Saved by the Bell,” did not commission the pop-up restaurant, but has enthusiastically sanctioned it and become a partner. Reviving classic entertainment properties, said Carol Nygren, senior vice president of Worldwide Live Entertainment, Universal Brand Development, “is always a popular trend, and being able to recreate scenes that play into fans’ memories of popular shows is so much fun.”

In recent years, Hulu and Netflix sponsored recreations of Luke’s Diner from “Gilmore Girls” and Jerry’s apartment on “Seinfeld” to herald those shows’ arrivals on streaming services. In 2014, Warner Brothers partnered with Eight O’Clock Coffee to do a pop-up version of Central Perk, the coffeehouse on “Friends,” and secured a copyright on the name for use in “coffee shop and cafe services” last January. And who can forget the giddy days of 1997 when Fox built a life-size replica of the “Simpsons” house in a suburban Las Vegas subdivision?

Enthusiasm for “Saved by the Bell”-related experiences, however, may outplay all of those properties. “It’s the right time for “Saved by the Bell,” Mr. Eastman said. “People’s interest in the show hasn’t died. Folks who are 32 to 38 years old, we’re all looking for something that’s different to do, something that’s not a nightclub that you have to be somebody to get into.” His business partner, Mr. Harris, who is in his early fifties, said the men chose the show in part because that age group is “out and spending and being more active than people who grew up on ‘Cheers’ and ‘Happy Days.’” (Ouch!)
