    Monical’s Pizza Paris To Re-Open

    Following the recent retirement of long-time franchisee Diane Boyer and subsequent remodeling of the Paris Monical’s Pizza, the restaurant is scheduled to re-open at the end of August.  Formerly a franchise location, the Paris Monical’s will now be operated as a company-owned restaurant with Jennifer Denton assuming General Manager responsibilities.  Jennifer has served as an Assistant Manager at the Tilton Monical’s and as General Manager of the Mattoon restaurant.

    The Paris remodeling includes upgrades to the kitchen and dining room in addition to new ADA accessible restrooms.  Work was done by general contractor Tony Grimes and a team of local sub-contractors. Guests will also notice several new menu items as well as online ordering for carry-out and delivery. Hours of operation will be 11:00 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.

    New GM Jennifer Denton says “This is a great opportunity for our Paris team to take a long-lasting Paris tradition and continue showing why the Monical’s Pizza experience is so special.  We’re going to do our best to live up to our tradition and hope the community will love what’s new and what’s the same about their Paris Monical’s.”

    Monical’s Pizza provides a number of community outreach programs including “School Reading” Reward, “Pizza with a Purpose” Fundraiser and “Sports Backer” for local athletic teams.  A complete list can be viewed at www.monicals.com.  The restaurant also offers a new Catering Menu with carry-out and delivery packages for meetings, wedding rehearsals, graduations and parties of all kinds. Monical’s “Dippin’ Club” provides members with updates on new products, community programs and special deals and can be joined at the company’s website.

    Monical’s Pizza is the recipient of numerous local and national recognitions not only for their community efforts and “Readers Choice” awards, but also as an “Employer of Choice” winner from the National Restaurant Association.   Founded in 1959 Monical’s Pizza currently consists of 65 locations in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin.

    For Immediate Release:

    July 25, 2014 – Monical’s Pizza announces plans to re-build their Tilton restaurant at its existing location at 1628 Georgetown Road. The building suffered extensive fire damage on April 24 of this year. Since then the company has been working with the insurance provider, city of Tilton and the corporate architect on the plans to rebuild.

    With a newly expanded North Vermilion Street location in addition to the original restaurant on North Bowman, the company will be adding capacity to the Danville market in order to better serve their guests. The rebuilt restaurant will feature a contemporary dining room with additional seating, increased energy efficiency and a completely reconstructed kitchen.

    Broeren-Russo Construction of Champaign will serve as general contractor and Monical’s on-staff Architect, Ralph Rorem, will be responsible for the building’s design. Work is expected to begin by the end of July and expect to be completed before the holidays. Janelle Reents, President of Monical Pizza Corporation, has commented on “the patience and overwhelming support we’ve received from the Tilton community, restaurant team and city officials.” Until the Tilton Monical’s is ready to reopen, guests are invited to visit one of their other area restaurants.
