Dining Pick of the Week: ZiKiZ

ZiKiZ

1500 N. Green Valley Parkway at Pebble Road, 702-565-9727

This casual Mediterranean-American restaurant knows how to customize your order. First, select a wrap: plain, spinach and herb, whole wheat or sundried tomato. Then add ingredients from several categories such as chicken breast, Angus steak, falafel, ZiKiZ crab mix, spinach, lettuce or brown rice. Finish if off with a dressing: Citrus Orange, Mango Curry, Asian BBQ, Chipotle Ranch, Caesar, Hot Sauce or Vinaigrette. This is a good place for vegans and vegetarians. Do the same with large salads by starting with a base of lettuce mix, spinach or tabouli (cracked wheat) and add chicken, steak or falafel, a topping and your favorite dressing. Among the toppings are olives, tomatoes, red onions, banana peppers, chick peas, avocado, cucumbers, pickles, and jalapeno peppers. A hummus plate lets you add a side such as flat bread or ZiKiZ chips, tabouli, falafel, ZiKiZ rice, brown rice, salad or french fries. Several desserts are chocolate chip cookie or cheesecake wrap topped with chocolate, lemon or strawberry. The kids meal ($4.99) is a wrap, chicken strips or cheese quesadilla with fries and juice. Wraps begin at $7.99, and salads start at $8.49. ZiKiZ is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday.
