3 Stacks Smoke & Tap House, at 4226 Preston Road, is temporarily closed for renovations from Jan. 13-27.

The restaurant concept will be changed from its hybrid self-service and sit-down dining to a full-service concept.

"The initial concept was that diners would come through the line to order and once seated, a server would provide you with a beverage from the bar or bring you add-ons like dessert," owners Trace Arnold and Jason Hall said. "Seems Frisco and our loyal customer base is accustomed to a full-service experience and after listening to months of customers feedback, the owners have decided to give the people what they want—a full-service experience from start to finish."

Additional booths and tables will be placed in the portion of the restaurant where the cafeteria-style serving area was located. A new merchandising area is being built behind the hostess stand and will carry items such as 3 Stacks rubs and sauces.

The restaurant is undergoing a 10-day renovation and allowing a couple of days of mock service for staff to get accustomed to the new layout. Provided the plan follows the timeline, the restaurant will be open to the public again on Jan. 27.

"We've been overwhelmed by the positive response to our barbecue, but there has always been some questions about the serving concept," Arnold said. "Jason and I operate under the 'customer's always right' philosophy, so we're pleased to be able to add to the experience here at 3 Stacks and give the people what they want."

3 Stacks first opened in Frisco in February 2013. 462-287-9035. www.3stacksbbq.com
