Guzman y Gomez (GYG) is opening a fourth restaurant in Buffalo Grove, as expansion continues throughout Chicagoland. GYG Buffalo Grove will open on Thursday 2nd November located at 120 McHenry Road with $5 burritos and bowls opening day special from 10am- 9pm for dine-in, takeaway, and drive-thru orders.
Guzman y Gomez Founder and Co-CEO Steven Marks always knew he wanted to bring the brand ‘home’ to the US. The native New Yorker, who in 2006 founded Guzman y Gomez Mexican Kitchen in Australia, has built a business dominating the Mexican fast-food category internationally and has over 200+ restaurants across Australia, Singapore, and Japan and the US.
Since January 2020 with the opening of GYG’s first US drive-thru location in Naperville, the company has continued to go from strength to strength. In 2023 GYG opened two new restaurants in Schaumburg (January) and Crystal Lake (May). GYG Buffalo Grove will offer the local community the same authentic Mexican flavors with a made-to-order menu including; burritos, bowls, nachos, tacos, nacho fries, and their famous Cali burrito (a burrito with fries in it).
From proteins including flame-grilled free-range chicken and angus steak, carnitas and shredded beef brisket to the house-made guacamole and pico de gallo GYG’s food is made with authentic Mexican flavors.
Steven Marks Guzman y Gomez Founder and co-CEO said in a statement that 2023 is set to be the biggest year for the company. “2023 has been an incredible year for GYG, we opened 27 restaurants across the world including our 200th restaurant in Cairns (Australia). We are so excited to open our fourth restaurant in the Chicagoland area, introduce the Buffalo Grove Community to our incredible authentic Mexican flavors and show everyone our GYG energy and love!” “GYG has always had a vision to reinvent fast-food because we genuinely believe that fast-food doesn’t have to mean bad food. We also want to provide the highest quality menu items and ingredients at great value with the speed and convenience of traditional fast-food.”
GYG Buffalo Grove will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner for dine in, drive thru, takeaway and delivery 7am-10pm from November 3 onwards.
