The Buffalo Spot, a California-based chicken and ribs chain, will open its second East Valley restaurant on the southeast corner of Val Vista and Williams Field in Gilbert.
It’ll take over the building that formerly housed Bush’s Chicken, which closed in July 2018 after just 14 months.
The Buffalo Spot’s signature menu item is its ‘‘world-famous’’ Buffalo Fries – french fries covered with boneless Buffalo chicken pieces.
Wings (traditional or boneless), tenders, and chicken burritos come with a choice of 14 sauces. The menu also includes breadsticks and salads.
The Gilbert location will have the chain’s first drive-through.
The chain made its Arizona debut in Phoenix in 2017 and has added locations in Tempe, Tucson and, earlier this month, Tolleson.
