The first — and thus far only — Richmond Zaxby's restaurant location at 5816 W. Broad St. is temporarily closed due to a crash that occurred last week.

According to franchise owner Ryan Converse, a driver "lost control and hit" the building around 8 a.m. Thursday, March 31.

"The damage was extensive and the store will be closed until repairs can be made," Converse wrote in an email to the Richmond Times-Dispatch. "She hit us in the most vital part of the restaurant. All my major equipment is there along with utility lines."

That location opened on February 8.

Converse said there's no reopening date yet, but he was able to move many of the employees to his second Zaxby's restaurant at 9110 Staples Mill Road and move up that location’s grand opening by a week to Monday, April 11.
