The Columbus Park Crossing area of the city is landing another restaurant and it will be Fazoli’s, an Italian fast-casual concept that is locating at 6589 Whittlesey Blvd., across from the Academy Sports and Outdoors store now under construction.

“We are hoping to open sometime in the last two weeks in May. We are just starting the hiring phase and we’ll be looking to hire probably 60 people,” Greg Russ, director of operations for C&P Italian Company, the Macon, Ga.-based franchisee that will operate the Columbus Fazoli’s, said Thursday.
