CORALVILLE, Iowa - Bandana’s Bar-B-Q, a regional restaurant chain specializing in southern smoked barbecue, has acquired property in Coralville.

The restaurant chain recently acquired property at 807 First Ave., Coralville, according to Van Miller and Scott Byers of NAI Iowa Realty Commercial, who represented Bandana’s in the transaction.

Bandana’s is expected to open in mid-September after the building is remodeled, according to Miller and Byers.
