About this project

The photo shows a freestanding Dillas Quesadillas: the curved parapet with the brand’s sign, a standing-seam metal canopy over the entrance, teal trim, a glass storefront on the front and side, and the parking lot at the door.

Dillas Quesadillas is one of the restaurant brands on the Harrison Construction client list. A small freestanding restaurant like this combines site work, a compact structure and a full quick-service kitchen, with the brand’s exterior details built as part of the envelope.

Harrison builds restaurants & qsr projects as tenant finish-outs, freestanding buildings and remodels, with pre-construction first. More about restaurants & qsr construction.

What a build like this involves

  1. Site work: grading, utilities to the building, paving, drive lanes and the patio slab
  2. Foundation, structure and the building envelope, including the brand’s signature elements such as a sign tower or canopy
  3. The full restaurant interior: kitchen rough-in, hood and fire suppression, grease interceptor, walk-in coolers, dining room finishes and restrooms
  4. Storefront glazing, exterior lighting, signage and the patio
  5. Permits with the city, the health authority review and the final inspections through the certificate of occupancy
Why it matters to the ownerA freestanding restaurant is a full building: more parties, more permits and a longer lead than a finish-out. One team that runs the site, the shell and the interior together keeps one schedule and one point of accountability from the first survey to opening day.
