Andy’s Pizza teases ‘soon-ish’ opening in Va. Square

The new Andy’s Pizza in Virginia Square won’t open in late March, as previously projected — but it is coming “soon-ish.”

That’s according to a handwritten message posted below the restaurant’s newly installed signage at 901 N. Pollard Street.

“We promise!” the message adds.

Director of Operations Chris Cutler told ARLnow that he could not comment on an opening date.

“We have a couple inspections left but are getting closer,” he said.

Visible signs of progress can be seen through the windows, including new booths, red tile accents and lighting fixtures.

Once open, the pizza shop will replace the former Ballston Place Gourmet deli, which has been closed for about two years.
