Hometown Growth: Celebrating our 14th Location in Jasper!
There is something special about growing where your roots are. For Taziki’s, Birmingham isn’t just a spot on the map—it’s home. It’s where our first kitchen fire was lit, where our first gyros were rolled, and where we first learned the meaning of Eudaimonia (the Greek word for "human flourishing").
That’s why we are so incredibly proud to announce the opening of our newest location in Jasper!
This isn't just another ribbon-cutting. This is our 14th store in the Birmingham market, officially making it (tied for) the largest footprint in our entire Taziki’s family.
Why Jasper? Why Now?
Expansion is exciting, but expanding in our home area is meaningful. By opening in Jasper, we aren't just bringing fresh Mediterranean flavors to a new zip code; we are doubling down on our commitment to the community that raised us.
What this milestone means for our market:
The Largest Market: Birmingham now holds the title for the most Taziki's locations, proving that our neighbors' appetite for fresh, healthy food is stronger than ever.
Local Investment: We are reinvesting in the economy that supported us from day one.
More Than a Meal: We are creating a space for Jasper families to gather, connect, and "live the good life."
More Than Just Jobs—Opportunities to Flourish
At the heart of every Taziki’s is our people. We’ve always said we aren’t just in the restaurant business; we’re in the people business.
The opening of the Jasper store allows us to create dozens of new jobs right here at home. But for us, "job" is just the starting line. We are passionate about providing a path for growth within the Taziki’s family. Many of our managers and operators started as prep cooks or cashiers. By expanding our footprint, we are creating more room at the table for our team members to step into leadership roles and build careers they are proud of.
"We want to help our people grow just as fast as we are. When one of our neighbors joins the Taziki's family, we're committed to helping them reach their full potential."
Spreading the Mediterranean Vibe
Our mission has always been simple: create an environment that combines modern Mediterranean fare with meaningful human connection. As we spread further into Jasper and beyond, we are simply looking to keep doing just that.
Whether you’re stopping in for a quick feast during your lunch break or bringing the whole family in for a Friday night dinner, we can’t wait to welcome you to our new Jasper home.
Come say hi, grab a signature pasta, and help us celebrate 14 stores of fresh food and even fresher starts!
