Comings and Goings: Jordan’s Opens on Post Road East

The Ouzounidis family of Norwalk has opened Jordan’s Restaurant and Pizza, 1759 Post Road East, its third pizza restaurant location in the Norwalk-Westport area. In 1978 Nick Ouzounidis, 57, the family patriarch started Jordan’s, 369 Westport Ave. in Norwalk. and in 2005 opened a second pizza restaurant at 252 Flax Hill Road, also in Norwalk. Lazaros Ouzounidis, 30, who manages the new location in Westport, is one of three siblings in the family business. His sister Ritsa, 29, manages the Westport Avenue location, and brother John, 24, operates the Flax Hill location. Lazaros said, “My father oversees it all.”  Lazaros said the new Westport location was previously occupied by Westfair Pizza & Pasta which closed a few months ago. “We took over and we’re staying,” he said, wryly referring the WestportNow Comings and Goings series. The full menu and pizza restaurant is open 11 a.m. – 11 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. – midnight Fri and Sat and noon – 11 p.m. Sunday. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
