LOS ANGELES – Fazoli’s officially announces the opening of its fourth restaurant in the greater Phoenix area. The all-new drive-thru restaurant features all the fan-favorites, including classics such as Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, Baked Spaghetti with Meatballs, and its beloved fresh, unlimited breadsticks.
