Raising Cane’s plans another flagship restaurant in Los Angeles
The fast-casual chicken chain will open a location this month near SoFi Stadium and Intuit Dome
June 4, 2026
Raising Cane’s has a full slate of restaurant openings and renovations scheduled for June, including its latest flagship restaurant, which will be located at 3895 W. Century Blvd. in Inglewood, Calif., or about 1 mile from SoFi Stadium and 0.5 miles from Intuit Dome.
SoFi Stadium, which is the home of the NFL’s LA Rams and LA Chargers, is hosting eight matches during the FIFA World Cup taking place through the next two months. Intuit Dome is a new state-of-the-art indoor arena that serves as the home of the NBA’s LA Clippers, as well as live concerts and other events. The new flagship restaurant will include a multi-level layout, glass exterior, signature aluminum halo and LED screens.
It joins the chain’s other flagship restaurants in New York City, Nashville, South Beach, Fla., Chicago, and Las Vegas. In March, Raising Cane’s opened another flagship in Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, marking its 1,000th milestone location. International expansion is also underway, with flagships slated for London and Mexico.
Raising Cane’s flagship restaurants are bigger than traditional locations and feature unique architecture and city-inspired décor. The Times Square restaurant, for instance, is 8,000 square feet.
This month, Raising Cane’s will also open restaurants in high-volume tourist destinations such as the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, Calif., and will make its debut in Pensacola, Fla., and Lynnwood, Wash.
Additional June openings and renovations include Vernon Hills, Ill., Owings Mills, Md., Austin, Texas, Kissimmee, Fla., Norman, Okla., Lexington, Ky., and Los Angeles, Lemon Grove, Ontario and Alhambra, Calif.
“Raising Cane’s continues to grow across the country, and this month we’re excited to bring our craveable chicken-finger meals to more customers and communities nationwide. June’s openings reflect the incredible momentum of the brand, including a standout Inglewood Flagship Restaurant in L.A. and high-profile Restaurant in Santa Monica, alongside exciting new market entries in Pensacola and Lynnwood. Each opening represents another meaningful milestone in Cane’s continued growth and connection with customers wherever they live, work and travel,” a company spokesperson said in a statement.
In May, Raising Cane’s opened seven new restaurants and completed two renovations. Those renovations include lighting, interior and exterior updates, according to a spokesperson. The 29-year-old company’s renovations are taking place on a rolling basis, and there is no set timeline to complete the system.
The company won’t comment on whether renovated restaurants yield higher sales but did confirm that more than 20 have been completed, including about 10 so far this year.
“We’re reinvesting in longtime Caniacs through renovations that enhance the experience for our crew and customers,” the spokesperson said.
Raising Cane’s has been on a remarkable growth trajectory throughout the past several years, including a 32% sales increase in 2024. In 2025, sales were up 10.6%, while unit count was up 10.3% to finish with $5.48 billion and 913 locations, according to Technomic. It is now the 16th largest chain by sales, jumping two spots from 2024 and 30 spots from 2018, when it had $1.18 billion in sales and 400 locations. Founder Todd Graves has publicly stated that the goal is to become a top 10 restaurant brand in the U.S.
