The MOD Pizza web site shows the Centerville restaurant and two other locations — one in Gahanna in suburban Columbus, another in the Oakley area of Cincinnati — as “coming soon.”
The new Cornerstone pizza shop will be similar in build-your-own, fast-bake concept to the Kettering-based Rapid Fired Pizza, which recently opened its second area location and has signed leases to open four more in the coming months in the region; and to Cleveland-based pizza chain PizzaFire, which has signed a lease to open its first Dayton-area restaurant this spring in Kettering.
MOD Pizza has signed a lease for a 2,500 square-foot-restaurant along Wilmington Pike in the “Shoppes III” retail center at Cornerstone near I-675 and Wilmington Pike, officials with Oberer Companies, developer of Cornerstone, said.
Oberer also formally announced Friday that Panda Express, a fast-casual Chinese restaurant, finalized its purchase April 1 of a free-standing site of just under one acre along Feedwire Road near Costco Warehouse, where the chain plans to build a 2,593-square-foot restaurant.
“With this week’s grand opening of Cabela’s, we continue to be pleased with the success of this development, and these announcements further solidify the regional draw and strong demographics Cornerstone of Centerville offers its anchor retailers as well as new-to-market restaurant concepts,” Chris Conley, president/partner of Oberer Realty Services, said in a release.
