Today, Chuy’s is hosting its annual Elvis Birthday Bash. The Tex-Mex restaurant will celebrate the 83rd birthday of Elvis Presley at the Franklin location.
Visit Chuy’s on January 8th dressed as Elvis (or his better half, Priscilla) to get a free entrée. In addition, to commemorate The King’s 83rd Birthday, Chuy’s will offer $1 off its Elvis Green Chile Fried Chicken and the Elvis Presley Memorial Combo for all customers. Frozen Blue Hawaiians and limited-edition Elvis t-shirts will also be available for purchase.
How did the Elvis Birthday celebration start at Chuy’s? When Chuy’s first opened in 1982 on Barton Springs Road in Austin, TX there was little money for restaurant décor. Chuy’s founders hit the streets with $20 in search of something to put on the walls. The over-sized velvet painting of Elvis they returned with changed the course of Chuy’s history forever. Soon, customers were donating their own memorabilia and Elvis was officially named the Patron Saint of Chuy’s. Chuy’s has been constructing shrines in his honor and celebrating his birthday ever since. Join Chuy’s as they ring in The King’s 83rd birthday this year with lots of fun and fanfare, and remember – at Chuy’s, Elvis has never left the building.
Chuy’s is located at 3061 Mallory Lane, Franklin with hours of operation 11 a – 10 p daily. Follow them on Facebook for the latest updates.
