Fazoli's Grows Presence in Arkansas With Opening of New Restaurant
LEXINGTON, Ky., June 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Fazoli's, America's largest elevated quick service Italian chain, announced today the opening of its newest franchised location in Paragould, Kentucky, marking the brand's second restaurant in Arkansas.

"Thanks to its refined menu and customer satisfaction with the brand, Fazoli's has proved to be an extremely successful franchise for me and we are thrilled to be bringing the newest location to Paragould," said Rob Hearden, Fazoli's franchisee. "We are excited to serve the local community of Paragould and be a place for friends and family to enjoy hearty Italian food with fresh ingredients at a great value."
The Paragould restaurant will open with Fazoli's recently refined menu, introducing more flavor and menu options to meet ever-changing consumer tastes and preferences. The modernized menu uses premium ingredients and includes offerings such as tableside grated Parmesan, upgraded plateware, as well as new dishes such as "Spicy Penne with Chicken or Sausage," and "Brownie Gelato Sundae."
