Eight months after Joe Squared closed its pizza restaurant and entertainment venue in Station North, a new restaurateur has emerged to take its place.
Baltimore’s liquor board has set a hearing for Aug. 8 to consider an application from a Baltimore businessman who is seeking a Class ‘B’ Beer, Wine and Liquor license for a restaurant at 33 W. North Avenue, where Joe Squared closed at the end of 2023 after operating for many years.
The applicant is Merve Pizza LLC, and its principal is Mehmet Guclu, who would own 100 percent of the shares of the entity holding the liquor license. Abraham Hurdle is his attorney.
