We heard from Vinny’s this morning. Someone from the organization returned an email to us and said the restaurant reopened for business.

Vinny’s Italian Grill and Pizzeria in North Stafford is closed today.

The popular Italian food joint shut its doors due to a lack of water in the restaurant, a worker told us by phone.

This sign was spotted posted on the restaurant’s glass door:

A contractor with the Virginia Department of Transportation on Monday struck a water main nearby. Crews are working in the area to widen a portion of Route 610 from four to six lanes.

Crews are on the scene today trying to fix the water main break, said a Stafford County spokeswoman.

“I have no idea when we’ll reopen,” a Vinny’s employee told us.

The restaurant is one of several Vinny’s locations in the Fredericksburg area. They make mean pasta primavera.
