Jody Fellows is the managing editor of the Falls Church News-Press.

Chuy’s, the Austin-based Tex-Mex joint that has recently set up shop at two locations in Northern Virginia, is going all out next Thursday, celebrating the birth of the Elvis, with a bash filled with fried chicken, margaritas and Twinkies.

Guests dressed up like the King (or Priscilla) who stop by Chuy’s Fairfax or Springfield locations on January 8 will get a free entree. And for those who can’t pull off a jumpsuit, there will be special pricing on some of the restaurants’ Elvis-themed dishes, plus free Twinkies, give aways, Margarita-filled souvenir cups and more Presley-related revelry.

When: Thursday, January 8, 11 a.m. – 11 p.m.

Where: Chuy’s, 6793 Springfield Mall, Springfield & 11219 Lee Highway, Fairfax
