NEW UNO CHICAGO
GRILL OPENS IN MILLBURY
New Uno to Feature Curbside Delivery, Low-Carbohydrate
Options and School Partners Program
Boston (September 30, 2004)
– Uno Restaurant Holdings Corp. announces the opening
of its 32nd Uno Chicago Grill restaurant in Massachusetts.
The new Uno Chicago Grill is located at 70 Worcester Providence
Highway in the newly built outdoor shopping mall, The Shoppes
at Blackstone Valley. The restaurant will officially open
for business on Thursday, September 30. The hours of operation
are Sunday through Saturday 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 a.m.
“We are proud to be part of the Millbury community
and are excited to open another Uno Chicago Grill in Massachusetts,”
said Uno President and Chief Operating Officer Paul MacPhail.
“Although our guests may already know and love our
famous Chicago-style deep dish pizza, they’ll be pleased
to find items like our Chicken Spinoccoli and Lemon Basil
Salmon on the menu as well.”
The newly built Uno Chicago Grill is 5,800 square feet,
seats 191 guests, features an outdoor patio and lounge-area
and will open with 129 employees. The restaurant will look
and feel like an old Chicago warehouse, with Windy City
memorabilia decorating the walls and mahogany trim throughout
the bar. In addition to serving a full menu including new
low-carbohydrate options, curbside delivery service will
be available.
To enhance their commitment to the Millbury community,
the new restaurant will offer Uno’s School Partner
Program. The program includes several educational events,
like free Pizza Maker Parties and fundraising opportunities
for local schools and community organizations.
The new Uno will be run by General Manager Christopher
Bailey who has been with Uno for three and a half years.
“We believe that the variety of the Uno Chicago Grill
menu, including the new low-carbohydrate items and the Kids
Make Their Own Pizza option, will be a big hit with Millbury-area
guests,” said Bailey. “In addition, the entire
menu is available for take-out and with our new curbside
delivery option customers can receive their order in a fast,
easy and convenient manner.”
In 2003, the restaurant known for its Chicago Original
Deep Dish Pizza™ evolved its name from Pizzeria Uno
to Uno Chicago Grill to reflect the variety of its menu.
Today, Uno Chicago Grill has the same great pizza, but also
offers a complete casual dining menu, including ribs, seafood,
juicy burgers and steaks, innovative pasta dishes, scrumptious
appetizers, low-carbohydrate alternatives and desserts.
The company continues to earn accolades from industry and
business publications. In 2003, Uno Chicago Grill was named
by Entrepreneur Magazine as
the #1 franchise opportunity in their category. The company
also was selected by Franchise Times
as one of the top 20 companies to watch in 2003.
Based in Boston, Uno Restaurant Holdings Corp. currently
has a system of more than 200 company-owned and franchise
full service units. Uno Chicago Grill restaurants are located
in 33 states, Puerto Rico, South Korea and the United Arab
Emirates. The company also operates a consumer foods division,
which supplies airlines, movie theaters, hotel restaurants
and supermarkets with both frozen and refrigerated private
label foods and branded Uno products. For more information,
