A beloved Fayetteville pizza joint is back in business.

Mojo’s Pints & Pies officials this week announced the original midtown location at 1200 N. Garland Ave. reopened on Thursday, May 26.

“It’s been awhile, but we haven’t forgot about you,” read a post on the company’s Facebook page. “Thank you, Fayetteville, for not forgetting about us.”

The restaurant closed last year due to staffing issues, around the time Mojo’s opened an east Fayetteville location at 2630 E. Citizens Drive.

The Garland Avenue location will reopen with limited hours at first due to a still somewhat limited staff, though the hope is to expand those hours as the restaurant hires more employees.

The restaurant will be closed on Sunday, May 29 for the Memorial Day holiday, but after that, will be open Thursdays from 3-10 p.m., and Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. until 10 p.m.
