According to founders Tony and Roushan Christofellis, customers can buy &#8220;luxury&#8221; food without getting out of their cars.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Build-your-own bowls start at $6.99, and steak and shrimp cost extra. Customers who are proteinmaxxing might be lured by the\u00a0&#8220;2x&#8221;, &#8220;3x&#8221; or &#8220;4x&#8221; protein add-ons.<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant also sells warm and chilled lobster rolls starting at $15.99. Salads start at $4.99.<\/p>\n<p>Other options include cheeseburgers, burritos and rice bowls. The all-in-one restaurant carries the new name Angie&#8217;s: The New Fast Food. Some of the menu items were previously\u00a0sold under separate brands\u00a0Angie&#8217;s Burger, Angie&#8217;s Chicken, Angie&#8217;s Lobster and Angie&#8217;s Prime Grill.<\/p>\n<p>At Angie&#8217;s, the founders seek to &#8220;disrupt&#8221; mainstream ideas of fast-food, they said. How? The company controls parts of the supply chain to keep costs lower. As an example, the Angie&#8217;s team operates a trucking company that moves supplies across the country to its 24 restaurants, Tony Christofellis said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The family plans to open at least four more Angie&#8217;s in Dallas-Fort Worth. For now, the company&#8217;s largest concentration of restaurants is in Arizona.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We believe D-FW has the potential to become one of our largest markets over time,&#8221; Tony\u00a0Christofellis said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angie&#8217;s is at 2823 Eldorado Parkway, Little Elm, and 701 W. 15th St., Plano.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A new-to-Texas drive-through restaurant called\u00a0Angie&#8217;s wants to challenge consumer expectations of fast food.
