A new Chick-fil-A restaurant is now serving! Chick-fil-A Inc. selected Lorena Kurtjian Hernandez as the local owner-operator of Chick-fil-A Balm Road.
To celebrate, Kurtjian Hernandez and the team recently invited the community to show their spots at a Moove-In Party on opening day! Whether in a full cow suit or donning a simple cow-spotted accessory, guests of all ages were invited to join the fun.
Located at 14310 S. U.S. 301, Chick-fil-A Balm Road will serve guests Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m.-10 p.m., offering dine-in, drive-through, carry-out, third-party delivery and Mobile Thru.
“Opening a Chick-fil-A restaurant is the fulfillment of a dream that began when my family moved to the United States from Argentina,” said Kurtjian Hernandez. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve the Riverview community and my goal is to create a place where people feel cared for, team members can thrive and everyone feels like they belong.”
Born in Argentina, Kurtjian Hernandez moved to the United States with her family at the age of 10, an experience that shaped her appreciation for opportunity and community. Years later, she was introduced to Chick-fil-A and inspired by the brand’s unwavering commitment to hospitality and caring for others. Drawn to Chick-fil-A’s mission to serve people first, Kurtjian Hernandez knew she wanted to be part of an organization that invests in its guests, team members and local communities. Today, as the local owner-operator of Chick-fil-A Balm Road, she is fulfilling her dream of owning a business by creating a restaurant where people feel valued, team members are empowered to grow and every guest experiences genuine hospitality.

Lorena is committed to giving back to The Riverview community by:
- Celebrating the opening with a $25,000 donation from Chick-fil-A Inc. to support local hunger relief efforts of Feeding Tampa Bay, a Feeding America partner food bank, in honor of the new restaurant.
- Creating approximately 120 jobs.
