Runza is now open in Mission

Runza (6751 Johnson Drive) is now open in Mission. The burger and bierock chain based out of Lincoln, Nebraska, opened earlier this week in the former Captain D’s Seafood Kitchen space.

The staff is in each morning — they answered the phone when I called this morning at 7 a.m. — to bake the bread for bierocks and the homemade chocolate-chip cookies. In addition to the signature bierocks, the crinkle-cut fries have earned the Nebraska restaurant a loyal following.
