Route 1 CiCi’s Pizza Closes Down

The CiCi’s Pizza franchise at Mount Vernon Plaza has closed for good, according to a company spokesman.

The pizza joint was located at 7666 Richmond Highway. A sign on the door says the restaurant is closed for renovations, but Geoff Goodman, CiCi’s Pizza vice president of national brand excellence, said in a statement that the franchise holder decided to close the location.

“We regret our franchisee's decision to close the popular Alexandria CiCi’s location,” Goodman stated. “CiCi’s Pizza is extremely grateful to our loyal guests and we hope they will visit us at our nearby Falls Church or Woodbridge restaurants, where we’ll continue to offer fresh, hot, delicious pizza, pasta, salad and desserts along with the highest levels of guest service.”

Now, the nearest CiCi’s Pizza locations are at 3520 S. Jefferson St. in Falls Church and at 13600 Foulger Square, Building F, in Woodbridge.
