A fast-casual Middle Eastern street food concept, Yafo Kitchen holds the same high culinary standards and approachable price points Charlotte food enthusiasts have come to expect from Frank Scibelli’s…
Yafo is consistently a 4/5 for me, especially this location.
If I were to recommend sides it would be: the tahini cauliflower, the Brussel sprouts with dates, or the dolmas. Typically I'm too full to finish the full sides alongside my meal, and I find those sides make for better leftovers. The mac & cheese is delicious day of, but doesn't keep to well.
The spicy carrot salad on one of the DIY wraps with some hummus is great.
I like that one meal can typically last me two portions. Everything seems fresh, so I feel like I get a decent bag for my buck.

One of the best deals in Charlotte is the Yafo Family Meal (Feeds 3-4). It has so much food and genuinely can feed 4 people I personally buy it for myself to meal prep a few lunches for the week. Excellent quality.

Ordered the Build Your Own Bowl. Superior nutrients, minerals and phenomenal flavor. A true plethora of meats, grains and spices that complement each individual special dish. Quality ingredients and artistic creativity married together is what this Bowl is all about. First class in flavor, freshness, nutrition and presentation. I highly recommend this dish it will tantalize the taste buds and satisfy any hunger. Slowly enjoy this meal because you deserve to treat yourself to the best this store has to offer.

Consistently incredibly food with amazing portions for the price. Today they couldn’t fit everything in the bowl so they literally gave me my hot toppings in a separate container. Awesome place. And the Mac and cheese is also SO STINKING GOOD.

I don’t even know how to form words because of the flavor y’all threw into this burger. The 1st time I had it, I thought maybe it was a fluke. Man, was I wrong. From the pita bread to the core of that juicy patty and all the condiments in between, it is pure excellence. I never in my life thought a Mediterranean place would throw down on a burger like this. Greatness is what I call this.
