If there is one person who is responsible for bringing Chipotle Mexican Grill to Crescent City, it is Akki Patel.
LRE & Company is Patel’s development arm which purchased the land at 895 L St., at the corner of 9th and both directions of the 101.
The project has been conditionally approved by city planning. Patel hopes to break ground in late August.
Chipotle Mexican Grill should be up and servicing the public six to eight months from groundbreaking. Crescent City’s Chipotle will offer a feature of pre-ordering and pick-up via drive through window at designated times.
Patel beams with pride in bringing Chipotle to Crescent City.
“LRE and Companies builds strong communities through partnership brands and communities like Crescent City,” said Patel.
The Crescent City store will join almost 3,200 other Chipotle Mexican Grills across the United States. United Kingdom, Canada, Germany and France.
Entrepreneur Patel has a 20-year-plus career in philanthropy, investing, advocating and developing projects in food and beverage, real estate, early stage technology and hospitality.
He plans further investment in Crescent City.
