FAT Brands’ Italian restaurant chain Fazoli's has expanded its presence in the US state of Georgia with the opening of a new restaurant in Newnan.

The latest venue, the chain's eighth restaurant in the state, is situated at 207 Bullsboro Drive.

The brand has seen a consistent increase in patronage within the state of Georgia.

Fazoli’s Newnan location serves pasta dishes and complimentary freshly baked breadsticks.

Fazoli’s president Gregg Nettleton said: “The following and excitement surrounding a new Fazoli’s is unmatched.

“Our fans are truly some of the most loyal out there, recognising our commitment to unparalleled service and providing value-driven food offerings without sacrificing quality.

“We can’t wait to strengthen our roots further in the surrounding Atlanta area, adding another spot for locals to enjoy their favourite Italian food.”

In May 2024, Fazoli’s extended its reach in the Tampa area of Florida with the launch of a new restaurant at 24791 FL-54 in Lutz.

This marked Fazoli’s second restaurant in Tampa and its sixth overall in Florida.

Fazoli’s, a subsidiary of FAT Brands, was founded in Lexington, Kentucky in 1988. It operates more than 200 restaurants in 26 US states.

Besides Fazoli’s, FAT Brands' portfolio features brands including Round Table Pizza, Fatburger, Marble Slab Creamery, Johnny Rockets and Great American Cookies.

In May 2024, FAT Brands, in collaboration with Brame Brands, opened a new Round Table Pizza restaurant in San Antonio, Texas.
