The city of Gainesville has a little bit of everything when it comes to fast food, from Japanese hibachi to burgers and fries, Italian pizza and good Southern chicken. A diverse mix of new restaurants opened in the Gainesville area last year, many of which were ethnic fast food. One of the first new restaurants to the area last year was Marco’s Pizza, which opened in February at 1294 Thompson Bridge Road, the old site of Corner Drugs.
