What’s the story with this Freebirds place that’s going into the old Chili’s space in Westport?

Freebirds is a California-based chain that recently announced plans to franchise out and expand in the Midwest. Many of its current locations are in Texas, and we stopped in at one a few months back while down in Austin for South By Southwest. Here’s what you can expect.
