Chipotle Mexican Grill has announced that its Cleveland Circle location in Boston, which was recently shut down after a norovirus outbreak sickened 136 diners earlier this month, has been reopened as of Saturday.
Following the norovirus outbreak, the Boston location was cited by the city's Inspectional Services Department for several food safety violations related to the temperature of their meats, for allowing an employee to work while sick prior to the outbreak and for the dozens of reports of food-borne illness as a result of the norovirus outbreak.
Chipotle released a statement on their website regarding the recent E. coli and norovirus outbreaks, assuring customers that the incidents are unrelated, and while it may be impossible for them to prevent foodborne illness, they are doing everything in their power to reduce the chances of similar outbreaks in the future.
