The Lamb and the Wolf is Rocklin’s newest Mediterranean place serving up gyros, pizza, and a number of delicious vegetarian dishes. The restaurant opened last November from a successful food truck business serving much of Northern California. In the last few months, the restaurant has added and modified specials to include family platters, discounted senior dinner items, and essential non-perishable groceries (like water, paper towels, and toilet paper). It also sells pizza kits with floured pizza dough, sauce, and cheese for families to bake their own pizza creations at home. Business was slow at the beginning of the shutdown, but people are adapting and are ordering out more frequently again.

“The support is amazing. One of our neighbors, Dorothy Kern, even collected donations from our neighborhood and then purchased lunch platters from us to feed Kaiser Roseville staff and grocery workers. There are so many good people in Rocklin, and I hope we can continue to do this,” owner Samantha Athanasopoulos said. The business is based on a food truck feel and thrives on delivery and takeout. There is limited dine-in capacity, and customers are welcome to order in-person or online. Their most popular current special is a $50 family platter that feeds 6 people easily.

Current business hours: 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday-Thursday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, and 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday
Ways to eat: Dine-in, curbside pickup, takeout, and delivery
Future expectations: The Lamb and the Wolf may extend their hours later in the evening once summer begins.
