CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Mezeh Mediterranean Grill has opened its doors at Optimist Hall.

Diners can design their own bowl, flatbread wrap or pita pocket with the option to choose from cage-free, grass-fed, halal proteins such as chicken shawarma, falafel or shredded lamb, and nearly 30 fresh toppings ranging from Lebanese tabbouleh and baba ganoush to pickled turnips and sumac cucumbers.
