Former Corner Grocery Returns As Shawerma Restaurant

It’s near enough to campus that Tommies and Mac kids are going to want to pay attention to this new opening. Ziat & Za’atar is now serving hummus, shawerma, falafel and more at 1626 Selby Avenue. The small restaurant is now in the former home of Lulu’s Deli.

The unique spelling of the roasted meat dish, can be found here on the full menu. The restaurant began serving officially on March 11 and is open from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. seven days a week.

Early reviews on the eatery’s Facebook page tout big servings and affordable prices. Sounds like a good fit for the Merriam Park neighborhood.
