Just in time for football season, Texas-based Wingstop will open its first restaurant in the Seattle area this fall at 14875 Main Street in Bellevue.

The Bellevue location is the first of 15 Wingstop restaurants planned for the Puget Sound region.

“Sports and wings go hand-in-hand, and we’re excited to announce that our first location will open this fall, just as football season is kicking off,” said owner-operator Andrea Southern of Sammamish. “Bellevue is a great spot to introduce wing and sports fans to our signature, made-to-order wings.”

Southern was instrumental in the development of Wingstop in the Los Angeles area, which today has more than 60 locations.

With a sole-focus on cooked-to-order chicken, the Wingstop menu features traditional and boneless wings, chicken strips and Glider sandwiches – all sauced and tossed in 10 original flavors. Homemade side dishes include fresh seasoned fries, cut daily from Idaho potatoes, baked beans, coleslaw and potato salad.
