"Wichita is filled with restaurants selling Lebanese fare, but the local Meddys chain puts a modern twist on classic dishes like falafel and hummus. The quick-service restaurants’ menus are populated with dishes including shawarma sandwiches, salmon wraps, and crunchy fattoush salads, and their dining rooms are decorated with Mediterranean tiles and filled with sunlight. All Meddys feature full bars serving craft cocktails. Of its five locations, the one that’s right downtown is within walking distance of the city’s big arena and a good jumping off point for a night in the brick-lined Old Town nightlife area." - Denise Neil
