HALA

Hala is the kind of place that makes you feel like you’ve been transported straight to Turkey without the need for a plane ticket. The flatbreads, tzatziki, and chicken shish are just a few of the delights that have people raving about the authentic Turkish cuisine. Alex Anderson was enthusiastic about the generous portions and flavorful dishes served with a side of warm hospitality.

With a 5-star hygiene rating, this joint is not only serving up delicious meals but is also a winner in cleanliness. Reem AlRashed even goes as far as to say that the food here is better than what you’d find in Istanbul. A shoutout to Samet, who seems to have made quite the impression with his attentive service, ensuring that every meal is a delight. Just be prepared for the music — it might not be to everyone's taste, according to Saadia bouzegzeg. Overall, Hala is a safe bet for anyone looking to indulge in some Mediterranean flavors.
