Chinito’s Burritos Says Reston Store on Hold

Chinito's in DC/Credit: YelpChinito’s Burritos, a D.C.-based Chinese-Mexican fusion restaurant, says it won’t open at Reston’s Hunters Woods Village Center any time soon.

Store manager Rudy Warren says the company filed Fairfax County permits earlier this year to build out new space at 2304 Hunters Woods Plaza, but had to halt the plans when funding for the project fell through.

Warren also said the county permitting process was taking eight months, which hurt the business.

Chinito’s has an existing location on Florida Avenue NE in Washington, DC. It gets high marks on Yelp for its homemade egg rolls, signature hot sauce and fresh guacamole.

Also at Hunters Woods, Dairy Queen has abruptly closed its doors.
