Tampa Bay is getting another Chuck.
This afternoon, celebrity chef Fabio Viviani announced he will open a second Chuck Lager America’s Tavern location, this time in the Marina Landings town center at Westshore Marina District.
In partnership with BTI Partners, the 4,000-square-foot will have the same menu as the Wesley Chapel location, featuring everything from “Gourmet Burgers and flatbreads to exquisite pasta dishes such as Shrimp Diablo Pappardelle and entrees like ‘Chuck’s' Citrus Salmon,’” says a press release.
Though there’s currently no exact opening date, the restaurant is set to open early next year.
Viviani, who was featured on three seasons of “Top Chef” and won the title of “Fan Favorite” in 2008, is behind over 30 restaurant concepts, including Tampa’s Osteria and St. Pete’s Le Pergola.
Last year, Viviani cut ties with Nocturnal Group, which operated local restaurants like Franklin Manor and Mole y Abuela, after violent and racist comments surfaced from one of the partners.
