Ford Fry, the chef behind a sprawling Atlanta restaurant empire, will soon open his second restaurant in the Raleigh area.

The latest: Little Rey, a northern Mexico-inspired restaurant, will open at the Raleigh Iron Works development on Dec. 9, a spokesperson for the restaurant group said.

What to expect: The menu will focus on wood-roasted chicken al carbon, a variety of street tacos, a selection of margaritas as well as a breakfast menu that includes breakfast tacos and pancakes.

The 4,200-square-foot space at Raleigh Iron Works will include a large patio space.
Fry described Little Rey as a cousin of its restaurant Superica, which is also in the Fenton development in Cary.
Little Rey is a model that Fry has already rolled out in Atlanta, Nashville and Houston.

Address: 1101 E. Whitaker Mill Road, Suite 102
