I just had a few minutes to grab a quick lunch on Friday and I knew that this place had opened recently, so I thought that I would give it a try. Ever since we moved from Montreal, the wife and I have been looking for some decent Lebanese food here in Charlotte. I may have just found the spot.
The place was relatively empty when I walked in just shy of 2 o'clock for a late lunch take away. After quickly scanning the large menu, I decided on 2 sandwiches: the meat schawarma and the chicken shish taouk. The meat schawarma was made with perfectly seasoned and moist shavings of lamb. The shish taouk was a combo of larger pieces of chicken, a garlic sauce explosion and some tangy, tasty pickles.
I was really satisfied with both sandwiches with a slight nod to the schawarma on this visit. Plenty of desserts and pastries to try here and I will definitely return with the wife. I just hope that this kabob place becomes a popular Matthews location and does very well over time.
