Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe Locals Supporting Locals

Success does leave clues and at Taziki’s Mediterranean Café that means support those who support you. When Taziti’s customers were forced to ‘shelter in place, Taziti’s knew that they could not.  Restaurant companies that understand the needs of their consumers and meet the those needs are the ones that will succeed according to Steven Johnson, Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions®.

Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe recenlty launched Taziki's Market, which will include an array of grocery items for guests to order online at tazikis.com and through the Taziki's app. The team at Taziti’s knew during times of stress that they need to be dynamic not static.

So when they developed Taziki's Market they included five categories: produce, meats, dairy/breads/dry goods, deli sides/dressings and beverages. Various amounts of these items will be available to order for delivery or pick-up beginning in Nashville, Richmond, Atlanta, Denver, and Memphis.

Dan Simpson, CEO of Taziki's Mediterranean Café  stated “Taziki's plans to expand the program across their various other locations throughout the coming months. Taziki's is focused on providing needed essentials for everyone adapting to COVID-19. When Taziki's customers choose menu items for curbside or delivery, they now have the option to also add other important grocery items,"  "Our customers expect freshness when they think of Taziki's, that is why we're rolling out new ways for them to conveniently get everything in one place."

The new Taziki's Market items include:

Small Fruit Bag: apples, oranges, a bag of grapes, and other seasonal berries that may include blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, for $15.

Small Veggie Bag: Romaine lettuce, cucumbers, roma tomatoes, onion, and a pint of housemade Greek or Balsamic Dressing, for $15.

Large Veggie Bag: Romaine lettuce, carrots, roma tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, onions, and seasonal vegetables that may include zucchini, squash, asparagus, for $30.

À La Carte Items: Taziki's fresh proteins (in select stores) including chicken, beef, shrimp, and salmon, along with Taziki's signature basmati rice, authentic pita bread, and penne and rotini pastas.

Beverages: Gallons of tea and lemonade

Of course, the restaurant's savory favorites will be available in their newest market option called the Cold Pantry Bag ($30). This bag includes their signature scratch-made dips like Whipped Feta, Taziki's Hummus, salsa, along with customer-favorite Taziki's Pasta Salad with Baked Pita Bread. All of these offerings come in convenient pints and are perfect for week-long snacking during quarantine for families and singles, alike.
