Tunde Bankole Purchases Cicis Pizza and Dickey’s Barbecue Pit Locations in Region
After purchasing the Cicis Pizza (cicis.com) at 5100 N 27th St in July, entrepreneur Tunde Bankole recently purchased three Dickey’s Barbecue Pit (dickeys.com) restaurants—in Lincoln, Omaha, and Bellevue—with hopes of keeping more local business going strong after the pandemic. In Lincoln, Tunde bought the Dickey’s franchise at 6125 Apple Way. It is open for dine-in business, as well as delivery through Grub Hub and Door Dash services. You can also order online for no-contact pickup at the restaurant.
Under Tunde’s ownership, Dickey’s continues to provide catering for gatherings, including holiday celebrations, as well as providing individual box lunches for meetings or other situations. It’s as simple as making one call to work out details, and Dickey’s will deliver it to your location on time. Dickey’s and Cicis both continue to follow all COVID guidelines to keep customers safe. Cicis is open for dine-in and offers delivery through the same options, as well as online ordering for pickup. The buffet is open, too, but it is covered from direct customer access due to COVID. You need only tell the server what you want, and they’ll serve it up for you—and you’re still allowed to return for more as many times as you want!
Dickey’s Barbecue Pit slow smokes all meats on-site, and the menu features beef brisket, pulled pork, St. Louis style ribs, polish sausage, spicy cheddar sausage, smoked turkey, and marinated chicken, with an extensive array of home-style sides, from jalapeno beans to macaroni and cheese. For more information, visit dickeys.com or call (402) 932-0102. Cicis offers a buffet full of pizza, pasta, salad, and deserts. All pizzas are made with 100% real cheese, more meat toppings, and a garlic-butter crust.
