The chain accepts all forms of payment except cash.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As with its other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/food\/restaurant-news\/article\/angies-6-dallas-restaurants-little-elm-drive-thru-22287102.php\" data-link=\"native\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"\">restaurants<\/a>, the menu includes USDA prime sirloin steak, wild-caught jumbo shrimp, salmon and antibiotic-free chicken, all grilled and prepared to order.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But perhaps the most surprising thing is the price. You can get a large salad with antibiotic-free chicken or homemade falafel for just $4.99, or a snow crab roll for $9.99. They also serve pizzas, with prices ranging from $6.99 to $9.99.<\/p>\n<p>That combination of top-quality ingredients served in a fast-food model at fast-food prices is the core concept behind Angie\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur entire model revolves around efficiency,\u201d co-founder Tony Christofellis said in a statement. \u201cMost restaurants raise prices to compensate for inefficiency. We\u2019ve redesigned the system itself.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To offer an antibiotic-free chicken salad at an affordable price, for example, the brand has a distribution center that processes beverages and sauces in Phoenix, a chicken processing plant in New York, and its own fleet of trucks,\u00a0Christofellis explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat efficiency-driven model allows us to keep prices low while investing in high wages and the best ingredients we can source,\u201d said Christofellis. \u201cOur culture is about eliminating costs that aren\u2019t essential to our mission.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant pays tribute to Angela \u201cAngie\u201d Christofellis, Tony\u2019s mother, who immigrated from Greece to Boston and spent her life working in seafood restaurants before opening Angela\u2019s Seafood outside Boston. Tony and his wife, Roushan Christofellis, who co-founded Salad and Go in 2011, co-founded Angie\u2019s in her honor in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLuxury foods should not only be available to higher-income consumers,\u201d said Roushan Christofellis in the same statement. \u201cTo achieve that mission, we had to rethink the traditional restaurant model from the ground up.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The company currently has 26 locations in Arizona, Nevada and Texas, including restaurants in Plano and Little Elm, which opened in November 2025 and June 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Irving restaurant is open daily from 10:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., with breakfast coming soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Angie\u2019s is located at 2271 North Belt Line Road, Irving.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.angies.com\" data-link=\"native\" class=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">angies.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Angie\u2019s, the chain that serves lobster and prime steaks at its drive-through at affordable prices, opened its third&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":446411,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[150,152,151,90636,89276],"class_list":["post-446410","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arlington","tag-arlington","tag-arlington-headlines","tag-arlington-news","tag-tp-irving","tag-tp-restaurant-openings"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446410","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=446410"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446410\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/446411"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=446410"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=446410"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=446410"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
