QDOBA Mexican Eats announced that the company will again expand into Arizona, opening two new restaurants in Phoenix and Scottsdale.
The new locations mark QDOBA’s first standalone restaurants in Arizona, joining existing on-campus sites at GCU and ASU, according to a press release. Located in Phoenix at 4901 Ray Road, Space #100, and in Scottsdale at 4821 N. Scottsdale Road, Suite 100, the two locations are slated to open in late December, with grand opening celebrations planned for January 2025. A representative from the company tells What Now Phoenix that these two locations will both be corporate-owned.
Both restaurants will feature a 2,000-square-foot interior with an additional 1,000-square-foot outdoor seating area in Phoenix and a 1,500-square-foot outdoor seating area and fireplace in Scottsdale. Each location will offer state-of-the-art details, including two full-service lines to accommodate high demand; an open grill front and center “theater” enabling guests to see and experience the grilling of fresh proteins throughout the day; and modern décor and interior design elements, including real wood furniture.
“QDOBA is an exceptionally well-positioned brand in one of the most attractive restaurant categories with the Greater Phoenix area offering significant growth potential,” Jeremy Vitaro, Chief Development Officer at QDOBA, said in a press release. “We are excited to bring our delicious, bold flavors, freshly prepared food, and everyday value to local residents for the first time.”
