Guy Fieri's Chicken Guy Restaurant Proposed In American Canyon

AMERICAN CANYON, CA — Guy Fieri's Chicken Guy Restaurant may be coming to the North Bay.

Chandi Hospitality Group, which operates Mountain Mike's Pizza, Beer Baron and Bollywood Bar & Clay Oven, has proposed to construct a new drive-through Chicken Guy Restaurant on a 1.03-acre site south of the Walgreens at 210 American Canyon Road, the city of American Canyon announced this week in a public notice.

It remains early in the development review process for the 2,818-square-foot restaurant that would have 70 fixed seats, a drive-through and 29 parking stalls.

The restaurant would have two entries on Broadway Street and its proposed hours of operation are 8 a.m. to midnight daily.

The project site is situated in the city of American Canyon's Neighborhood Commerical zoning district of the Broadway District Specific Plan, therefore, a conditional use permit is required for eateries adjacent to residential zones or uses.

An application for a conditional use permit was submitted to the city in August for the project.

There are seven existing Chicken Guy Restaurants across the United States, including in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and Nashville, Tennessee, with at least three more in the works. The American Canyon location would be the second in California; the lone Chicken Guy Restaurant in the Golden State is at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara.

From the kitchen of Guy Fieri, "Chicken Guy! features one-of-a-kind all-natural fresh chicken tenders, hand-pounded to maximize crunch and paired with a wide selection of delicious sauces. Brined in fresh lemon juice, pickle brine and buttermilk, and infused with fresh herbs, these tenders deliver on flavor and texture. Choose from a wide array of sauces created by Chef Guy to enjoy with your meal and sides."

The city will post updates here about the project.
