A Couple of Mysteries Develop on Route 1 in Lynnfield

Two separate stories concerning restaurants on Route 1 in Lynnfield seem to have an aura of mystery to them. If anyone can help clarify either one of these, we'd love to hear from you, so feel free to comment....

First, according to various online job listings, including one on Craigslist, a new Mexican restaurant is going to be opening at 325 Broadway (Route 1) at the tunnel just south of the Route 128 intersection. Now 325 Broadway is also the address for the Bostonville Grille, which is still open. So the question is, will this new Mexican restaurant be opening up next to the Bostonville Grille, or will it be taking over its spot?

Second, as many people have noted, Lucille's Fine Chicken, which is a short distance south of the Bostonville Grille, appears to be closed. Or is it? Over the past few weeks, it has seemed that renovations to the building were taking place, which begs the question: Is Lucille's totally gone, is the current owner putting a new restaurant in, or is it possible that Lucille's will eventually open back up again?

Again, if anyone has some insight into either of these mysteries, please post a comment here or contact us at Boston's Hidden Restaurants. Thanks!
