Back in February of 2019, Mezeh Mediterranean Grill closed its Wheaton Mall location and reported on its website that it will be relocating to the Aspen Hill shopping center. The would-be Aspen Hill location was later removed from the Mezeh website in 2020, but a representative from the shopping center told us the two sides still hoped to reach an agreement. Nearly three years later, in June 2023, we were able to confirm that it was official. Now, the fast-casual restaurant is open.
Mezeh started construction on the old Jerry’s Subs & Pizza space in the Aspen Hill Shopping Center last spring and the long wait is now over. We are told that there may be a giveaway involving a free bowl with the purchase of a drink on Wednesday, May 1st, but have been unable to confirm with the store.
Mezeh Mediterranean Grill will also be opening two additional locations in Montgomery County. They have signed on at the upcoming Crossroads at Kensington development at 10619 Connecticut Avenue ( at Plyers Mill Road), where he restaurant signed on to take over a new 2,350SF space with plenty of outdoor seating. They’ve also signed on to take over the space that we previously occupied by The Olney Winery in the Fair Hill Shopping Center in Olney. Mezeh is a fast-casual eatery with a buffet-style of offerings that include rice and salad bowls, wraps and a variety of sauces and toppings. Mezeh currently has MoCo locations in Gaithersburg and Germantown.
Opening dates for the other two upcoming MoCo locations are not yet available.
