One of Nashville’s favorite food trucks is opening up its first brick-and-mortar restaurant this week, as The Grilled Cheeserie plans to start service to the public this Friday.
Located at 2003 Belcourt Avenue in a portion of the building that was previously home to Sunset Grill, owners Joseph Bogan and Crystal De Luna-Bogan will open their new 65-seat melt shop at 11 a.m., serving up an expanded menu (see in full below) with seven specialty melts and a make your own melt option. Also on offer are a variety of snacks, soups and salads, as well as a greatly expanded roster of desserts, including a milkshake bar, old-fashioned floats and cookie melts.
The Grilled Cheeserie first started rolling in 2010, quickly gaining a loyal following. But for this next phase, the Bogans partnered with fast-casual restaurant juggernaut Fresh Hospitality, telling the Tennessean that ‘the plan is to open additional restaurants in the Nashville market and possibly expand The Grilled Cheeserie beyond Music City.’ The food trucks will continue to operate.
New outposts of Biscuit Love and I Love Juice Bar will join The Grilled Cheeserie at the property, which Fresh Hospitality purchased back in 2015.
Hours for The Grilled Cheeserie will be 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.
