There's A New Chicken Restaurant Coming To LV! PDQ Open Sunday 3/15

If you're craving critically acclaimed chicken, served fast, fresh and with health-conscious choices, prepare to be satisfied at PDQ.

PDQ, a rapidly growing restaurant chain known for its fresh but affordable chicken tenders, salads and sandwiches, makes its first foray into Nevada when it opens its restaurant at 3737 W. Craig Road on Sunday, March 15.

PDQ, which stands for People Dedicated to Quality, features a "fast casual" concept and

specializes in fresh food served quickly in a family-friendly atmosphere. Its new restaurant in

North Las Vegas will be PDQ's first location west of Texas and its 39th nationwide.

At PDQ, food is made to order from ingredients so fresh that the restaurant has no need for freezers or microwave ovens.

"We want our guests to have a wonderful experience, from the first tender bite of fresh

chicken dipped in house-made sauces, down to the last sip of our hand-spun milkshakes,"

said Tony Grappo, a longtime Las Vegan and Nevada market director for PDQ. "We're so

committed to serving delicious and healthy meals that we enjoy cooking in open kitchens

that allow our guests to see how we prepare the food from start to finish."

PDQ has numerous locations in seven states, from North Carolina and South Carolina to Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Texas and has now brought its brand to Nevada. A second location is slated to open this summer on West Sahara Avenue, just west of Interstate 15.

PDQ co-founders include Bob Basham, a principal owner who was also a co-founder of Outback Steakhouse, and Nick Reader, a former CFO of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

  

While many are drawn to PDQ's famous crispy tenders, the menu features a variety of options that cater to just about everyone's palate. The high-quality fresh chicken, which

comes in tender meals, sandwiches and salads, can also be grilled, and fresh turkey can be

substituted for chicken. The hand-tossed salads are made with fresh produce and can be paired with seven homemade salad dressings. Fresh-cut fries are made in-house every day from fresh potatoes.

PDQ's restaurant in North Las Vegas will have more than 4,000 square feet, more than 120

seats and a drive-through window. Its hours are 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week.

PDQ is founded on high-quality food, attentive customer service and genuine hospitality in a friendly atmosphere. For more information, visit www.eatPDQ.com or call (702) 410-6747
