Luna Pizza Kitchen is adding another pin to the Central Ohio dining map, this time at 66 Hyatts Road, squarely between Lewis Center and the city of Delaware. The new restaurant will be the brand’s fifth location and its second opening in 2025, a clear signal that the company sees momentum in the fast-growing northern edge of the county.
The Hyatts Road site sits just off US-23 in a newer retail building, an area better known for traffic counts and service businesses than for distinctive local dining. Luna’s arrival changes that equation in a small but noticeable way.
A Family Operation With Range
Luna Pizza Kitchen is a family-owned brand with existing locations in Dublin, Gahanna, and two parts of Columbus, including the Worthington-Polaris and Crown Plaza areas. While the footprint has expanded steadily, the concept has remained consistent: approachable food, fast service, and a menu that reaches beyond standard pizza-shop expectations.
At its core, Luna is about handcrafted pizzas, subs, wings, and starters. What separates it from dozens of other pizzerias is the way global flavors show up without turning the menu into a novelty act. The offerings are broad, but they are not scattered.
Pizzas That Don’t Play It Safe
Luna’s specialty pizzas lean confidently into international influences. Gyro Pizza, Chicken Tikka Pizza, Paneer Delight Pizza, and the aptly named Luna-Tic Pizza share space with more familiar options, creating a menu that works for cautious eaters and adventurous ones at the same table.
Beyond pizza, the kitchen turns out stromboli, wings, loaded tots, potato skins, and a lineup of subs that includes gyro and Southwest paneer options. Lunch specials keep the brand competitive during the workday, while family-sized orders fit the evening carryout rush.
The US-23 and Hyatts Road corridor has been developing quickly, but dining choices have lagged behind residential growth. Most food options nearby are tied to national chains or designed primarily for drive-through convenience.
Luna Pizza Kitchen brings something different. It adds a locally rooted restaurant that works equally well for sit-down meals and carryout, with a menu that reflects the area’s increasingly diverse population. Halal-friendly choices and vegetarian options are built in, not treated as afterthoughts.
A Small Opening With Larger Signals
This fifth location is not a flashy announcement, but it says a lot about where the region is headed. Independent Central Ohio brands are no longer stopping at the outer suburbs. They are following rooftops, traffic patterns, and communities north.
For residents along Hyatts Road, it means another reason not to default to the same old options. For Luna Pizza Kitchen, it looks like a careful, confident step into a corridor that is still defining itself.
