Restaurant Notes: Huey Magoo’s in Mandarin

August 30, 2021 – The city is reviewing an application for Kaneco Construction LLC to renovate a former bank for Huey Magoo’s Chicken Tenders at an estimated cost of $350,000.

Birdbox Ventures LLC, led by Michael Phillips, paid $915,000 in May for the almost 1-acre site at 10560 Old St. Augustine Road.

It is one of the Duval County franchise owner’s first three locations in the area.

The city calculated a mobility fee of $65,082 for a 38-seat restaurant.

Phillips intends to redevelop the 4,000-square-foot building for two tenants, comprising a 2,500-square-foot Huey Magoo’s drive-thru unit and a 1,500-square-foot retail user. He wants to open the restaurant Jan. 1.
