Mezeh Mediterranean Grill opens in The Piazza at South Fayette
By Andrea Iglar
Mezeh Mediterranean Grill opened in June in South Fayette Township.
The restaurant in The Piazza at South Fayette is the fast casual chain’s fourth in Pennsylvania, among more than 50 locations on the East Coast.
The menu offers bowls, wraps and pita pockets that Mezeh describes as a modern twist on a classic mezze spread—an assortment of hot and cold foods such as meats, vegetables, beans, dips, herbs and grains.
Cofounder Steve Walker said each restaurant uses fresh ingredients and 100% olive oil to make falafel, hummus, lamb, Turkish salad, tabbouleh and other dishes.
“The big thing about Mezeh, when you walk in and try our food, is you can taste the freshness and the flavors because we make it from scratch in our restaurants,” Walker said.
The South West Regional Chamber of Commerce and South Fayette Township welcomed Mezeh during a ribbon cutting on June 6. The grand opening included complimentary bowls for customers.
Guests can order from a menu or build customized meals assembly-line style. Walker recommends trying at least five or six toppings. Meat, vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and halal options are available.
“There’s a lot people looking for healthier choices, looking for different options, and I think we’re unique compared to other places,” Walker said. “So hopefully people will come and try us.”
Dine-in, pickup, delivery and catering are available.
