Wings Over Broadway adding second location

Update: Wings over Broadway's second location is now open

Wings Over Broadway is opening a second location as early as mid-July in the just-closed BZ’s Pizza Co. Neighborhood Grill at 8838 E. Broadway.

BZ's closed last Friday after a three-year run marked by financial ups and downs after the Safeway store that anchored the corner of East Broadway and South Camino Seco closed 18 months ago.

Wings Over Broadway — fondly referred to as WOB by its legions of fans — is one of Tucson's oldest buffalo wing restaurants. It's been around since 1999, serving up cold beer with its hot wings and a full menu of burgers, sandwiches and smothered fries.

The new location is about 3½ miles from the original WOB at 5004 E. Broadway. Owner JJ Esquibel bought the restaurant 10 years ago.

Esquibel said he is hiring for all positions in the kitchen and front of house. In a Facebook posting, he said applications are being accepted at the original location.
