About IL FORNELLO

In 1986 IL FORNELLO introduced Toronto to wood-oven baked pizza and the response was overwhelming. From the very first day IL FORNELLO opened its doors our priority has been to provide our guests with the highest quality food and service possible. But we have also anticipated and adapted to the evolving food preferences and sensitivities of our customers. As a result, IL FORNELLO was the first Italian restaurant to offer gluten-free pizza and pasta on our menu and, most recently, an extensive and creative Vegan menu that has been extremely successful.

Because of our constant focus on customer service, IL FORNELLO has not just weathered recessions, changing demographics and the constantly challenging landscape that is the food service industry, it has thrived. With successful corporate and franchise locations in Toronto, Ajax, Richmond Hill and Oakville, IL FORNELLO Restaurants is ready to grow again.

About Bombshells Restaurant

"Bombshells
The first Bombshells opened in March of 2013 in Dallas, quickly becoming one of the most popular restaurant destinations in the area. There are now stores in Dallas, Austin, and Houston. Our concept has exceptional Average Unit Volumes with a strong lunch, happy hour, dinner, and after dinner entertainment with strong bar business.

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a single Bombshells Restaurant ranges from $1,731,000 to $2,916,000 for Restaurants established in connection with converting existing space and $2,231,000 to $3,086,000 for Restaurants that are established by new development and construction. This amount includes approximately $90,500 to $106,500 that must be paid to the franchisor or their affiliates, depending upon whether the franchisor requires you to pay the architect training fee and the audio/visual plan review fee. If you sign a Development Agreement, you will also pay a development fee equal to the total of 100% of the initial franchise fee for the first Restaurant to be developed plus 50% of the initial franchise fee for each additional Restaurant to be developed. The pro rata portion of the development fee allocable to each Restaurant will be credited against the initial franchise fee due for that Restaurant.
