Bucs Champ Rob Gronkowski Makes Dish With Datz For Guy Fieri Show

Tampa Bay Buccaneers player and four-time Super Bowl Champion Rob Gronkowski partnered with celebrity chef and new Florida home-owner, Guy Fieri to bring awareness and help generate sales for Datz in Tampa tonight.

Gronk joined the Guy's Restaurant Reboot Presented LendingTree streaming live earlier and made a special "Gronkalo Chicken & Waffle" as a part of Off the Hook Celebrity Creations presented by Pepsi.

He asked Datz owner Suzanne Perry about the story behind Datz and they both bonded over coming out of planned retirements to do something they love. They then discussed overcoming the challenges of the pandemic.

“We entered into what has without a doubt been the hardest year of the 12 years that we’ve had restaurants. So, the good news is we’ve come through, we’ve gotten help, and we’ve been able to get our staff back and we’re coming out of the dark.”, said Suzanne Perry.

“The restaurant businesses just took an absolute beating, so I want to give kudos to you for the adjustments you have made to keep this place open. I love what you guys do here.”, said Gronkowski.

He then joined Chef Richard Hudson to make his signature "Gronkalo Chicken & Waffle" dish covered in buffalo sauce. The dish be purchased both at Datz in South Tampa and on Grubhub via delivery.
