Taziki's Mediterranean Café (formerly Taziki's Greek Fare) is a "quick casual" restaurant chain featuring Greek-inspired salads and sandwiches. The original location, opened by Keith Richards in 1998, is at the Shops of Colonnade on Colonnade Parkway. In 2008, Richards opened his 4th Birmingham-area location, followed by two more before the end of 2010. By 2013 the chain had 28 company-owned locations. That year, the chain began courting franchisees to commit to opening at least three restaurants in various markets.
Taziki's was a runner-up in the Birmingham News's 2005 and 2006 Reader's Choice Awards for the category "Best Take-Out".
