In addition to its signature macs and sandwiches, I Heart Mac and Cheese offers a half dozen sides to compliment their dishes, including tomato soup and tater tots.

The other two planned locations in central Florida include one in Lake Mary and one in Winter Park. In total, the chain is hoping to have 17 restaurants open in the Sunshine State.

The new location is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Thursday, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and from 10:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Sunday.
