SimonCRE, a national commercial real estate development and acquisition firm, has released that it has signed two more restaurants, Lou Malnati’s and Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers, to be added to the Street Fare at Alexandria. Located in the upcoming retail center Village at Prasada in Surprise, this restaurant hub is centrally located to provide Surprise residents with indoor and outdoor eating opportunities with immense walkability, offering the open-air retail experience that many shoppers want today.

This will mark the 8th location for Lou Malnati’s in the state, bringing their Chicago-style deep dish pizzas to the Chicago transplants and Arizona natives that live throughout the West Valley. Cold Beers and Cheeseburgers currently has 12 immensely popular locations throughout Phoenix, and now brings their classic neighborhood burger joint aesthetic to the residents of Surprise, and Village at Prasada. These strongly desired restaurants join an already robust row of restaurants that includes OHSO Brewery, Barrio Queen, Firebirds, and Cooper’s Hawk. Surprise and West Valley residents have expressed an interest in more food options that are upscale, while still retaining a casual atmosphere. These restaurants will provide residents and shoppers with a welcoming location to meet with family and friends.

Developed with the residents of Surprise in mind, the Street Fare at Alexandria brings a variety of desirable food options that would otherwise require travel across the Valley for residents to access. Residents have previously indicated a desire for more variety in restaurant options for the West Valley, and SimonCRE worked hard in the process of developing Street Fare at Alexandria to deliver this dream.

“It is really exciting to be bringing these restaurant concepts to the West Valley, an area that is growing at an exceptional rate. Anyone that lives in Surprise knows how long they currently have to drive to visit some of these existing restaurants’ locations, so being able to give them the food that they want in a center that is more convenient for them, that’s the dream as a developer” said Joshua Simon, SimonCRE’s Founder and CEO.

“Village at Prasada really blends the best of both worlds, national retail choices coupled with local dining favorites that will serve as the premier dining destination for the West Valley,” said Ryan Desmond, Partner, Western Retail Advisors.
