Casual Middle East Grill
Short Orders
Mona’s, a small East Side
establishment serving casual Turkish fare at 1814 N. Farwell Ave., quietly
closed its doors. Now it has been replaced with Moe’s Middle Eastern Grill with
a yellow canopy that looks strikingly familiar. Other things also remain
familiar. Shawarma, the Middle Eastern equivalent of Greek gyros, remains on the
menu. In Turkey it is called doner kebab. The new menu has all the vegetarian
standards from tabbouleh to falafel. In addition, the meats include chicken and
lamb kebabs and fatayer, which are pies filled with beef or cheese. Service
remains casual, order at the counter and find a table in the adjoining dining
area.
