Fuddruckers is opening its first Indiana location this week and has also unveiled its third location in Italy. The Indiana location opens Tuesday at 3830 S. US Highway 41 in Terre Haute and will encompass 7,000 square feet with interior seating for 176 and a patio for up to 44 guests, according to a company press release.

The Italy location opened last week in Como under the direction of Vinum et Alia. The 5,500-square-foot restaurant is situated along the bustling Via Strada Statale dei Giovi in Casnate con Bernate, a municipality in the Province of Como, according to the release. 

The American-style interior, accommodating up to 250 guests, showcases a dynamic and playful design scheme, which emphasizes Fuddruckers' classic roadhouse origins. The result is a festive and inviting backdrop ideal for a gathering of friends and family, a business lunch or date night, said Peter Tropoli, COO of Luby's Inc., Fuddruckers’ parent company.

"Through our partnership with Vinum et Alia, we continue to expand our footprint in Italy while quickly earning fans throughout the country, who appreciate our unique brand and use of quality ingredients, including 100 percent fresh and never-frozen locally-sourced Italian beef produced to our unique specifications," he said.
