Yafo Kitchen sets Dilworth debut, eyes additional locations

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Yafo Kitchen will begin dishing up its Mediterranean-inspired fare in Charlotte’s Dilworth neighborhood on Tuesday.

That restaurant — the third for the concept — occupies about 3,400 square feet at 1231A East Boulevard, formerly home to Just Fresh.

“I’ve been a part of East Boulevard for a long time,” says Frank Scibelli, founder of FS Food Group. “This is a great location.”

He previously operated Cantina 1511 and Bad Daddy’s in that neighborhood. The Charlotte restaurateur is also behind Midwood Smokehouse, Mama Ricotta’s and Paco’s Tacos.
