Qdoba Mexican Grill to Open Tuesday
A new restaurant with a Mexican flavor is opening this week by the 95th Street Metra Station.
Qdoba Mexican Grill will open its second south suburban restaurant at 5137 W. 95th St. in Oak Lawn starting with breakfast burritos at 7 a.m. Tuesday.
There also will be prizes galore for opening day customers who will get the chance to spin a prize wheel during lunch.
“We thought Oak Lawn had the right kind of mix for Qdoba,” said company spokeswoman Lauren Glatthorn. “There are lots of families with kids. The community appreciates homemade food, which is what we offer.”
