The renowned scratch Mexican grill Ori’Zaba’s has opened another restaurant in Texas, rapidly expanding its presence within the local community. Owned by seasoned hospitality professional Vikas Abbasi, the new restaurant is located at 20750 Kuykendahl Road, Spring, TX 77379.
Abbasi comes with a strong background in hospitality, with his most recent role being at Hilton Grand Vacations. Also having spent years at international restaurant chains such as Subway and Pizza Inn, he has acquired broad experience in the sector covering sales, operations, customer service, human resources, food safety, quality and other critical functions.
But, it was Ori’Zaba’s health-conscious menu that first attracted Abbasi to the popular Mexican food franchise to pursue his dream of becoming a fast-casual restaurant owner.
Abbasi explained, “I love the Ori’Zaba’s healthy menu concept. It is clean eating packed with delicious flavors. Naturally, I was thrilled to hear about the chain’s franchise program that allows investors like me to become part of this amazing concept. For me, this is much more than a regular business. We part of a thriving community and I greet many repeat customers every day. My family participates in the business operations and we have already gotten to know many families’ happy faces who keep coming back for the crave-worthy food. Besides, Ori’Zaba’s restaurants use fresh ingredients and prepare all dishes from scratch each day. Another great part of my day, I get to create employment opportunities for my community and share my restaurant’s success with many others.”
Ori’Zaba’s has quickly grown in popularity over the years for its authentic, freshly prepared Mexican dishes and wide ranging choices. The chain’s low oil, dairy-free, gluten-free, vegetarian and plant-based options have attracted food lovers from all corners of Texas.
“The Ori’Zaba’s franchise business model is uniquely designed for ambitious entrepreneurs like Vikas Abbasi. It covers end-to-end processes that are crucial to operating a successful restaurant, from sourcing and preparing food to customer services,” remarked Ori’Zaba’s President Jennifer Howell.
The Ori’Zaba’s concept has increasingly drawn the attention of investors, allowing the chain to swiftly expand its presence. “We are delighted to have Abbasi expand the Houston market for Ori’Zaba’s. He shares our vision to deliver quality, flavorful food and exceptional service. His hands-on experience in the hospitality sector, both in customer-facing and operational roles is to be a valuable asset in consistently delivering our customer promise at the new location,” Howell added.
