PDQ is a fast casual chain of chicken restaurants based in Tampa, Florida.

During the time of its conception, its initials initially stood for "pretty damn quick", but this was later changed to "people dedicated to quality".

Its first store opened in Tampa, Florida in 2011.

It was founded by Bob Basham, a former Outback Steakhouse founder, and Nick Reader, CEO of MVP Holdings.

PDQ has 55 locations in eight U.S. states.

According to Basham, each store "averages about $3 million in annual sales".

A fast casual restaurant, found primarily in the United States, does not offer full table service, but promises higher quality food than other fast food restaurants (with fewer frozen or processed ingredients).

It is an intermediate concept between fast food and casual dining, and typically priced accordingly.

The category is exemplified by chains such as Boston Market, Bruegger's, Captain D's, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Culvers, Dig Inn, El Pollo Loco, Five Guys, Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, Newk's Eatery, Noodles & Co., Panera Bread, Pizza Ranch, and Vapiano.

A fast food restaurant, also known as a quick service restaurant (QSR) within the industry, is a specific type of restaurant that serves fast food cuisine and has minimal table service.

The food served in fast food restaurants is typically part of a "meat-sweet diet", offered from a limited menu, cooked in bulk in advance and kept hot, finished and packaged to order, and usually available for take away, though seating may be provided at the restaurant.

Fast food restaurants are typically part of a restaurant chain or franchise operation that provisions standardized ingredients and/or partially prepared foods and supplies to each restaurant through controlled supply channels.

The term "fast food" was recognized in a dictionary by Merriam–Webster in 1951.

Pizza is a yeasted flatbread generally topped with tomato sauce and cheese and baked in an oven.

It is commonly topped with a selection of meats, vegetables and condiments.

The term was first recorded in the 10th century, in a Latin manuscript from Gaeta in Central Italy.

The modern pizza was invented in Naples, Italy, and the dish and its variants have since become popular and common in many areas of the world.

A kiosk is a small, separated garden pavilion open on some or all sides.

Kiosks were common in Persia, the Indian subcontinent, and in the Ottoman Empire from the 13th century onward.

Today, there are many kiosks in and around the Topkapı Palace in Istanbul, and they are still a relatively common sight in Balkan states.
