Hughes-Edwards Builders has been selected as design-build general contractor for Sopapilla’s restaurant expanding their operations to the Streets of Indian Lake in Hendersonville.
The New Mexican style restaurant currently has a popular Franklin location in the Moore’s Lane area and owners Steve and Emily Dale said north of Nashville diners have been encouraging the second location.
“We are excited that Hughes-Edwards Builders is helping us transform the former September’s restaurant across from the AMC Theater into a cool chic atmosphere but warm and inviting as we did in our first location. I like their work and they did the original build out of this site. They’ve been wonderful to work with and are helping us create our own slice of New Mexico decor,” Dale said.
Bryan Edwards, president of Hughes-Edwards Builders, said the 5,400 square foot space will have several intriguing design elements including a double-sided fireplace, concrete finish bar, area barn wood repurposed dining table for their VIP Room and impressive wood and stone elements wrapping the entire restaurant setting.
“The Dales are doing a great job of weaving wood embellishments, pretty finishes and lighting to create a sophisticated minimalist backdrop for their delicious fusion of Spanish, Native American and Mexican foods created by Steve Dale, a former member of the country music band, Little Big Town. Sumner County is going to love having this fresh, new dining option,” Edwards said.
Hughes-Edwards Builders, a long-time Middle Tennessee custom homebuilder and remodeler, is serving as the design-build general contractor working with interior designer Jo Ella McClellan. The restaurant is slated for opening mid-March.
