A new grill in Gretna

Gretna, Nebraska is getting a new grill. PepperJax is opening its second location in Gretna, Nebraska this month. They are currently hiring final positions for their grand opening team and will begin training soon.

The first Gretna location is located at the Nebraska Crossing Mall. The new location is a free-standing building located at 620 S Hwy 6 in front of the new Fareway grocery store and features a drive thru with dual service lines. The set-up allows them to maintain their open kitchen service model for dine-in guests and a grilled, fresh-to-order line, for drive thru customers.

The location they opened in September off of I-80 and 144th street has the exact same layout as their new Gretna site. “It’s the best of both worlds,” says Erin Palladino, Chief Operating Officer. “We have been testing different proto-types and the one thing we know, is our guest expects the open and transparent kitchen,” Palladino continues. And the new design is considered the future for the brand. Outside of opening new locations, PepperJax will refresh existing locations to showcase the new brand look.
