Bolo Italian Grill in Southlake, opening mid-December, dares to put pasta in sandwiches
The signature sandwich at Bolo Italian Grill is the bolo: a flatbread wrap that comes with angel hair or gluten-free penne, choice of meat, veggies, cheese and a drizzle of sauce.
Wait: Pasta inside the wrap?
The idea behind Bolo is that it blends burritos and Italian food, a press release says.
Creator Judson Phillips comes from years of owning franchises or partnering with chains such as McDonald’s, Quiznos and Pizza Patron.
Bolo Italian Grill is estimated to open in mid-December in Southlake and is a fast-casual restaurant. Besides bolos, the menu has pasta bowls, salad, and gluten-free and vegetarian options. (See the menu below.) Meals can also be “bambino-sized” into kid-friendly sizes, according to a press release.
260 North Kimball Ave. #264, Southlake. Open seven days a week for lunch and dinner, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. 817-488-8829. boloitaliangrill.com.
