    Mr. Hummus Grill & Pizza Opening Soon in Grandview

    Mr. Hummus Grill is making a comeback of sorts in Grandview, but this time as a brick-and-mortar.

    In a full-circle moment, Mr. Hummus Grill & Pizza will open its doors at 1333 Northwest Blvd., in the building situated on the very lot where Chef and Owner Tarek Albast used to set up his food truck.

    There’s also a new cuisine in the name for the restaurant’s third location in Central Ohio. It’s pizza, but not pizza quite like one would imagine.

    Built on a hand-made dough, Mr. Hummus’ pizza will come in varieties like shrimp, cauliflower, falafel, spinach & feta and more.

    “I always wanted to do pizza, but I just didn’t have the space in my current location,” Albast says.

    However, as the former home of Tamo’s Pizzeria, the address provides the perfect opportunity to explore this new side of the menu.

    Outside of pizza, diners will find a full lineup of Lebanese favorites similar to the existing restaurant’s menu, including several vegetarian and vegan options.

    At about a quarter of the size of the original restaurant location, Mr. Hummus in Grandview will be focused on take out, with very limited dine-in seating. It will be a familiar setup for neighborhood diners who first frequented the food truck back in 2016 and 2017. Albast says the neighborhood has been requesting a comeback ever since.

    While Grandview will technically be the third Mr. Hummus location in Central Ohio, it will be the second to open. A previously announced expansion to Italian Village is still in the works. Albast says the space is ready, but they are working through a parking variance with the city and hope to have the issue resolved to open the doors some time in March or April.

    Mr. Hummus Grill’s original brick-and-mortar location opened at 1450 Bethel Rd. in 2018.

    The Grandview debut is just a few weeks away, with a target opening date of Friday, February 4.

    Mr. Hummus Grill & Pizza will be open Sunday to Tuesday and Thursday from 11 a.m. – 9 p.m. (closed on Wednesdays) and from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
