New owners of Big City Burgers make small changes

Elliot and Renee Sousa, the new owners of Burger City restaurant in the First & Main Town Center, have made small decor changes and have tinkered with the menu a bit -- adding salads and some new burger offerings -- but have otherwise left things alone.

"One of the reasons we purchased Burger City is that we were drawn to the reputation it had for serving great food," Renee Sousa said. "It also has a fantastic location, close to the IMAX-Cinemark 16 theater and in the rapidly growing Powers area."

Elliot Sousa has an extensive background in restaurant management. He managed Bob’s Big Boy restaurant’s in Southern California for 25 years, becoming an Executive General Manager. Burger City is open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday-Thursday and Sunday. Its hours on Friday and Saturday are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. A grand opening party is planned for early in 2007.
