Coriander shutters after three years in business as owner searches for larger space
The Armenian concept in Carytown has outgrown its current digs, and its owner is taking time to rethink her strategy as the brand grows.
The only Armenian restaurant in Virginia has closed its doors. Coriander in Carytown shuttered this week after three years in business, but it may not be the last we hear of the concept.
From Richmond BizSense, who first reported on the closure:
After three years in business, a Carytown restaurant is taking a hiatus to retool its concept and hunt for a new home.
Coriander, an Armenian restaurant opened in 2014 by Elizabet Bandazian, recently closed at 3125 W. Cary St.
A note on the door said the restaurant was switching gears, had outgrown the space and hinted at a broader business plan.
“You will see us again in another location, and in your favorite local stores,” the posted note said.
