AUSTIN, Texas —Fuddruckers will open its 230th location with a 10 a.m. ribbon-cutting ceremony June 29, in Sparks, Nev., at The Legends at Sparks Marina, a few miles from Reno.

The restaurant was opened by franchisee Luther Mack and opening festivities also will feature an appearance byactor and comedian Bill Cosby.
