Recently, they announced that they would open a location on Hampton Avenue that offers pickup and delivery only. It is expected to open in late July or early August 2023. It is located in The Hill Food Company, a ghost kitchen concept that has experienced multiple delayed opening dates.
In January 2023, they announced the opening of their remodeled and expanded location in O’Fallon, MO. This year they will celebrate its 10th anniversary in that location. The expansion nearly doubled their occupancy and added a bar space anticipating adding mixed drinks to their menu.
