The last two weeks of August reset everyone’s schedule at once — earlier mornings, homework after dinner, and a lot less time to cook. Mediterranean Grill House’s Kids Menu, grab-and-go Fatayer line, and family catering packages were already built for exactly this kind of practical, no-fuss ordering, whether it’s a weeknight dinner run or a lunch that needs to survive a backpack until noon.
The Kids Menu, for Weeknight Dinner
Three options make up the dedicated Kids Menu: Kids Veggie Delight Plate ($11.45) for a vegetarian option, Chicken Strips and Fries ($12.45) for the picky-eater default, and Kids Meat Combo Plate ($13.45) for a fuller halal meat plate. All three are sized and priced for a kid’s dinner rather than a scaled-down adult plate, and pairing one with an adult wrap or plate from the main menu turns a single order into dinner for the whole table without extra prep at home.
Fatayer: A Genuinely Good Lunchbox Answer
The Fatayer line does double duty as a practical lunch-packing option. Spinach & Feta Fatayer, Zaatar Cheese Fatayer, and Potato Fatayer are each $5.99; Musakhan Fatayer and Chicken Fatayer are $6.25; Beef Fatayer is $6.50. Because they’re baked, not fried, they hold up in a lunchbox or backpack far better than most grab-and-go options, and they eat well at room temperature — a real advantage over food that needs to stay hot to taste right. Buying a mixed batch at pickup and portioning them out over a few school-day lunches is a straightforward way to skip the weekday scramble.
Catering for PTA Meetings and First-Week Gatherings
Late August fills up fast with back-to-school potlucks, PTA kickoff meetings, and first-week staff or classroom lunches. Mediterranean Grill House’s two All-in-One catering packages are built for exactly that kind of group order: an Essentials Meal for 15 People ($309.50) and a Full Meal for 15 People ($389.07). Both are ordered through online-ordering.innowi.com/branch/Medgrillcatering, and both remove the guesswork of feeding a room of parents or staff on a weeknight.
A Practical Weeknight Routine
For families easing back into a school-night rhythm, the combination is simple: a Kids Menu plate for the kids, a wrap or plate from the main menu for the adults, and a few extra Fatayer picked up on the same trip to cover the next day or two of lunches. It’s one order that covers dinner tonight and lunch tomorrow, which matters more in the first few weeks of school than almost any other time of year.
Halal Without Exception
As with every item on the menu, the Kids Menu and Fatayer line are fully halal — there’s no separate consideration needed when packing a halal-observant child’s lunch or feeding a family on a school night.
Order Ahead for Pickup
Ordering directly through online-ordering.innowi.com/branch/medgrill lets a dinner order be timed for after pickup or practice, and it skips the markup that delivery apps add — a meaningful difference for families ordering more often once the school routine kicks in. Joining the Rewards Program earns points on every order, dine-in or pickup.
