HYDE PARK — Rōti Modern Mediterranean announced Wednesday it will open a new location in Hyde Park.
The announcement said the restaurant will open before the end of the year at 1526 E. 53rd St., on the 53rd Street side of the Harper Court development.
The Hyde Park location will be the seventh in Chicago, with a sixth location expected to open at 200 N. Michigan Ave. also this year.
"We’re so excited to bring Rōti Modern Mediterranean to Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood and the vibrant University of Chicago campus,” said Carl Segal, CEO of the Chicago-based chain. “Like all of our new locations moving forward, our Hyde Park restaurant will feature an updated, more modern look and new menu offerings, including beer and wine.”
The restaurant has not yet applied for a liquor license, according to city records.
Rōti serves a variety of kabobs and rice plates as well as pita sandwiches and wraps and is planning new menu items for the Hyde Park location, which have not yet been announced.
The chain also has locations in New York City and Washington, D.C., as well as Virginia and Maryland.
