Le Kebab Grill · University City
Chef and owner Nabil Alnatsheh once cooked privately for the American ambassador in Jordan and now runs a halal counter at 350 E. McCullough Dr. in University City, turning out wraps, kebabs, and gyros for the surrounding offices and campus. Charlotte Magazine covered him in its look at Levantine cooking in Charlotte.
Jasmine Grill · Madison Park
Owner Mohammad Khaled Mahrousa left Aleppo and opened this halal kitchen at 5033 South Blvd. in 2013. The shawarma and the kebab plates are the reason to make the drive, and the portions assume you arrived hungry. Charlotte Magazine covered it in its story on Levantine cooking in Charlotte.
