The chain — known for comforting breakfast and lunch fare along with its mimosa flights — announced its expansion into both the Alamo City in November 2024, saying the unit would be its first west of the Mississippi River.

Bonds, a 27-year army veteran, will own the unit, the Current previously reported.
