CELEBRATES WITH GRAND OPENING APRIL 13
The newly franchised fast-casual Italian eatery, By the Bucket, has opened in Northeast Mesa. The Red Mountain location is offering the high-quality, fresh spaghetti by the bucket that the restaurant has become known for, as well as new menu items including 8-inch hoagie subs, Caesar salad, a la carte protein options, and assorted desserts.
The team at the Red Mountain location is excited to welcome its regulars as well as meet new patrons at the grand opening taking place on Thursday, April 13 at 3 p.m. Guests can stop by the store, share how they heard about the new restaurant, and enjoy desserts and other samples from the menu. The franchise owner, former NFL player Paul Kruger, will also be in attendance to celebrate the new location.
Franchisee owners and spouses, Jenna Peterson and Brian LeBlanc, knewthey wanted to open their own By the Bucket location after regularly dining at the original Payson location before their camping trips. Now, as franchisees, they’ve seen the restaurant’s growth and popularity.
“The first one that opened up in Payson was a very basic concept — a bucket of spaghetti with your sauce, meatballs, and side of garlic bread, offered in three different sizes,” said Jenna. “Now, you can upgrade your sauce with a meat sauce or alfredo sauce or add a variety of proteins like chicken or Italian sausage.”
By the Bucket has quickly become a favorite for families wanting an affordable, quick, and delicious dinner on the go. The restaurant also offers several great, quickservice lunch options as well, such as a lunch combination of a sub, chips, and a drink, or garlic bread pizza. For those wanting to dine at the restaurant, there is a bistro table outside where guests can enjoy their meal.
By the Bucket Red Mountain location is on the northwest corner of Power and McDowell roads, facing McDowell Road, next to the cleaners. It is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. for both lunch and dinner. For more information on By the Bucket, visit bythebucket.com.
