A new fast food restaurant specializing in pizza and chicken wings is proposed for 8950 W. Appleton Ave., in a strip mall on Milwaukee’s Northwest Side.
Ebony Cannon recently filed a license application to open Jamie Pearls Pizza & Wingz, the latest in a series of similar restaurants to occupy the 1,700-square-foot storefront.
Previous tenants include Buddy’s Pizza, Mr. J’s Fish & Chicken and Mr. Crab Fish & Chicken.
In her application, Cannon notes six years of industry experience and a planned opening in late May. According to city records, the restaurant was granted occupancy on May 2, received license approval on May 15 and has passed all inspections.
The restaurant plans to serve a variety of quick-service meals including “some good chicken, some good pizza, gyros” and more, according to Cannon, who describes her menu as featuring “juicy food” — the kind she prefers.
Guests can also expect fish and chicken dinners served with fries, coleslaw and bread, along with build-your-own pizzas, salads and a wide variety of sandwiches and burgers. A kids menu offers smaller portions of chicken wings, nuggets and tenders.
“I’ll be tasting a lot of food from these restaurants, and I’m picky. It’s like, I throw a lot of food out or I give it away,” she said, adding that a good meal has the power to uplift your mood.
“It fuels the soul.”
Some items Cannon mentioned, such as pizza slices, are absent from the proposed menu attached to her license application. Cannon has no plans to serve alcohol at this time.
The counter-service restaurant will feature a small seating area for on-site dining, though meals will also be offered to-go. Catering, drive-thru and delivery services will not be offered, according to the license application.
The restaurant occupies the northwestern portion of a larger building that also houses West Side Liquor. Ansh West Side Real Estate Holding Inc., with Satpal Singh as registered agent, is the building owner.
Once open, the proposed hours of operation for Jamie Pearls Pizza & Wingz are Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to midnight and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Cannon did not respond to a request for comment.
Update: After publication, Cannon provided additional details to Urban Milwaukee.
