A new restaurant is slated to open in the former Starbucks location adjacent to Barnes & Noble in the Marketplace at Birdcage shopping center.
According to the Sacramento Business Journal, Marketplace at Birdcage leasing materials from August 2023 indicated that the chain planned to occupy a 1,400-square-foot space at 6121 Sunrise Blvd. in Citrus Heights, which is the suite adjacent to Barnes & Noble. As of Tuesday, April 2, Gerrity, which lists all tenants within Marketplace at Birdcage, confirmed the future Teriyaki Madness location as 6121 Sunrise Blvd.
A visit to the future location at the end of March by Sentinel staff observed a banner posted on the front of the building announcing Teriyaki Madness “coming soon,” but the interior was empty with no improvements installed. The former Starbucks, which used to be accessible through Barnes & Noble, has been blocked off from within the bookstore.
Teriyaki Madness has expanded to the Sacramento area with two known locations so far in 2024. A location in West Sacramento is listed as open on the company’s website. Several other California locations are listed as “coming soon” including a location in El Dorado Hills.
The fast-casual-Asian restaurant chain was founded in 2003 and currently has over 150 locations in the U.S., according to its website. The franchise was named one of Denver Business Journal’s fastest-growing companies in 2022, according to Sacramento Business Journal, and was listed in the top 100 franchises of 2024.
The Marketplace at Birdcage is anchored by Walmart Neighborhood Market, Best Buy, Old Navy, Michaels, Barnes & Noble and Chuze Fitness.
