STRONGSVILLE, OH — The much-anticipated opening of Culver's in Strongsville will happen Jan. 20, the city announced on Facebook. The restaurant will have a ribbon-cutting and grand opening ceremony before welcoming customers.

The grand opening will start at 9 a.m. and finish at 10 a.m. Customers can then start tasting Culver's many offerings.

The Strongsville Culver's is located at 8464 Pearl Road, the former site of Jennifer's Restaurant. The Culver's crew knocked down what was Jennifer's and built their new restaurant in its stead.
