If you loved Zoe’s Kitchen back in the day, you might recognize a few things on the menu. When we first spoke with owner John Cassimus about Zozo’s, he shared some of the family’s longtime favorites that customers can expect to find, including:

  • Chicken rollup
  • Chicken salad sandwich
  • Ribeye rollup

Zozo’s serves fresh Greek and Mediterranean-inspired dishes, with family photos spanning three decades featured inside each location.

The upcoming Hoover restaurant joins Zozo’s Kitchen locations in Homewood, Cahaba Heights and Tuscaloosa.
