It is open Sunday through to Thursday from 10:30am to 10:00pm, and Friday and Saturday from 10:30am to 11:00pm.
Fazoli’s president Gregg Nettleton said: “We’re proud to open our sixth location in Florida, which underscores our commitment to expanding in the state.
“We have incredible fans in Florida who continue to welcome us from day one. From waiting in opening day lines to ordering their fair share of unlimited breadsticks, their dedication to the brand makes each opening special.
“We expect the same success in Lutz with our fast, fresh and affordable Italian cuisine.”
