The Delaware-based sandwich chain received a permit for build-out at 10025 San Jose Blvd. within Crown Point Plaza. It will occupy a long-vacant end unit previously utilized by the Department of Motor Vehicles.

It marks Capriotti’s first entry into the North Florida market. It has locations in Tampa and Miami.
