FALLS CHURCH, VA — Bolay, a fast-casual chain offering nutritious "bols," will open a Falls Church location in September.

Bolay will open at 1208-D W. Broad St. at the Birch & Broad shopping center. The Florida fast-casual restaurant was founded by Chris and Tim Gannon, the latter of whom started Outback Steakhouse in 1988. According to the restaurant's website, Chris Gannon envisioned Bolay as a lifestyle brand with nutritious offerings.

When Bolay opens in Falls Church on Thursday, Sept. 22, the first 100 guests will receive "Bolay for a Year." That means guests receive one Bolay regular bol once per month for one year through the BolayGo App. Guests are encouraged to line up starting at 8 a.m. before the restaurant opens at 11 a.m. Prizes are limited to one per household for ages 18 and older. Guests must have a phone to use the app for the promotion.

This will be Bolay's first Virginia location as the brand expands out of Florida. Bolay is also opening a Gainesville, Virginia location on Thursday, Sept. 29.
