FISHERS, IN Located on 116th Street just east of I-69, the highly anticipated 9,000-square-foot Restaurant broke ground this morning, led by Portillo's and Novak Construction. Portillo's CEO, Keith Kinsey joined by Sam Herston, Director of Restaurant Development, Walter Sydor, Portillo's In-House Architect, Sherri Abruscato, Portillo's COO, and Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness were present at the ceremony.

The four acre site includes new site utilities, concrete sidewalks and curbs, asphalt paving, and full site improvements. The 250-seat restaurant will be a CMU structure with brick veneer and architectural steel elements. It will include a patio and double drive-thru. This location will feature a Prohibition-era theme that will include a roof top water tower and a suspended antique vehicle.

This location is scheduled to open in the Fall of 2017. Novak also has two other Portillo's projects currently under construction in Normal, Illinois, and Woodbury, Minnesota.
