Additionally, the local community is invited to attend the official Grand Opening all-day celebration, taking place on Saturday, August 18, 2012 with music, prizes, local fundraiser event and more!

"I am thrilled to open the first Togo's in Arizona and I am confident residents of the Town of Gilbert will become big fans of the brand once they try our delicious, seriously stacked sandwiches, wraps, salads and more," said Togo's franchisee Monty Coury. "I grew up in the restaurant business and once my wife and I tried Togo's food, we knew we had to open a restaurant near our hometown."

Coury first experienced Togo's menu at a restaurant in California and found the food to be irresistible. His background is in commercial development and always wanted to return to his roots in the restaurant and hospitality industries. The Gilbert Togo's is his first restaurant opening and he has two more Togo's in development for Maricopa County. He is originally from Mesa, AZ and currently resides in Chandler, AZ.

At Togo's, there is a steadfast commitment to being "Better than a Breadwich," serving customers meaty sandwiches piled high with the freshest, superior-quality ingredients and proprietary proteins. California avocados are mashed daily, abundant quantities of lean pastrami, 97 percent fat free roast beef, 98 percent fat free slow roasted turkey, 100 percent natural chicken, and other premium meats, and Artisan bread set the brand apart from other sandwich shops. Togo's homemade albacore tuna and chicken salad, savory soups and salads are also part of the brand's exceptional menu.

The new location is now serving guests from 10:00am – 9pm Monday – Friday, 10:30am – 7pm on Saturday and 11am – 5pm on Sunday.
