SYRACUSE — The restaurant lineup at Syracuse Hancock International Airport now includes a new location of Qdoba Mexican Eats.
The Syracuse Regional Airport Authority (SRAA) and Gideon Toal Management Services (GTMS) joined the restaurant for the Feb. 21 ribbon-cutting event, SRAA said in its announcement.
The fast-casual restaurant, which serves Mexican-style cuisine, conducted a soft opening in January. It is located in the post-security checkpoint hallway leading to concourse A gates, SRAA said.
The restaurant chain has locations across the U.S. and Canada. The SYR location operates daily from 4:15 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., or the last flight of the day.
“Today’s grand opening represents an exciting expansion of dining options for SYR travelers,” Jason Mehl, SRAA chief commercial officer, said in the announcement. “We are grateful to our partners at Gideon Toal Management Services and Qdoba Mexican Eats for their commitment to enhancing the passenger experience and investing in the success of SYR. As our airport continues to grow, partnerships like these play a key role in elevating SYR to a best-in-class destination.”
Those attending the formal-opening event enjoyed samples and heard speeches from SRAA leadership, GTMS leadership, and a representative from the Qdoba Mexican Eats brand.
“Gideon Toal Management Services is thrilled about the opportunity to open a Qdoba Mexican Eats quick-serve restaurant concession at Syracuse Hancock International Airport,” Alvin Brown, president of Gideon Toal Management Services, said in the SRAA announcement. “This venture not only aligns with our commitment to providing exceptional dining experiences but also positions us to play a significant role in the ongoing growth of airport passenger traffic. We are excited to contribute to the economic development of the region while serving delicious, high-quality Mexican cuisine to travelers. Together, we look forward to a prosperous future and to enhancing the airport’s offerings.”
