The big Angelo's move is about to begin, Wichita. Here's what to expect:
Wichita will be Angelo’s- free for a bit starting this weekend, and owners of the Italian restaurant are advising fans to stock up on take-and-bake pizzas and pasta dishes to get them through. The restaurant, which is relocating from its home of five years at 5900 E. Central, will have its last day there on Saturday. Then, they’ll start the move to the new space at 550 N. Rock Road, where businesses including Quinton’s Bar & Grill , Ernie Biggs, Dempsey’s Burger Pub and Crutch BBQ previously operated. The owners aren’t yet sure how long the move will take, though. On social media this weekend , they said that the best-case scenario is that the restaurant will be reopened within seven to 10 days — but that’s assuming that the move and inspections of the new space stay on track. The post thanked customers for their continued support and patience and promised an update as soon as it was available. Angelo’s announced in May its plans to relocate. The space it’s taking over was famously home to The Grape during the 1980s and 1990s. Originally, Angelo’s had hoped to have the move complete by the end of August, but things

Longtime east Wichita restaurant's west-side counterpart opens this week
Managers spent the weekend training staff at a couple of invite-only events. And on Tuesday, the new Firebirds Wood Fired Grill at 2824 N. Maize Road will open to the public. The restaurant, which is southwest of the Hobby Lobby at 29th North and Maize, is the second location of the chain for Wichita. Started by onetime Wichitan and Lone Star Steakhouse founder Dennis Thompson and some partners 25 years ago in Charlotte, Firebirds o pened its first Wichita restaurant in 2013 at the Waterfront development. The chain now has nearly 70 locations across the country. The west-side restaurant is smaller than the one on the east side and a bit less ornate. It doesn’t have a private dining room like the east side, but it does have a big outdoor patio facing Maize Road that has a fireplace and heaters. The menu at Firebirds features a variety of steaks, seafood options like salmon and Chilean sea bass, ribs, chicken, pasta dishes, burgers and sandwiches. It also has a separate lunch menu and serves brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Brunch features breakfast cocktails along with items such as baked French toast and grilled salmon benedict.

Crumbl competitor coming to Wichita serves cookies that may be even more decadent
A new cookie chain is entering the Wichita market, and its specialty is gooey, deep-dish cookies with melty centers. One of its slogans: “Calories are units of joy. Make yours count.” Signs have just gone up at the strip center at 8918 W. 21st St. for Crave , a Utah-based chain that specializes in cookies that are two-inches high. Founded in 2019, the chain now has more than 60 locations across 21 states. A representative of Caro Development , which owns the strip center where Crave will open, confirmed that a local franchisee has been working on the shop for a while. It sits next door to Sharky’s Island Bites . I reached out to the local franchisee for more details, including a timeline for opening, and will update this story when I hear back. Crave seems to subtly take aim at struggling competitor Crumbl Cookies on its website, particularly in a section titled “The $5 Cookie Problem.” The section reads, “You’ve felt it. That sinking moment when you bite into an expensive cookie and realize it’s just chocolate chip with different frosting. Again. The rotating cookie industry thinks swapping toppings equals innovation. Your taste buds know better. When you’re
