Galardi transformed several locations in some Western cities and the Denver area into hamburger stand restaurants in the late 1980s. At that time Wienerschnitzel started to sell Galardi’s own ice cream brand Tastee-Freez.

In 2015, the Wienerschnitzel company signed a franchise agreement with International Food Concepts Inc. planning to open new locations in Panama.

Nowadays there are more than 350 Wienerschnitzel restaurants located mostly in Texas and California, but you can find at least one of these restaurants in Washington, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Nevada, Illinois, New Mexico, and Louisiana.
