Chargal London: Modern Turkish Mediterranean Flavours
Celebrating open-fire cooking, seasonal mezze and premium cuts in an elegant three-floor setting.
Newly opened in the heart of Mayfair, Chargal brings a refined new contemporary perspective to Turkish Mediterranean dining. At Chargal, Turkish culinary heritage is interpreted through a contemporary lens.
Guests can begin with a selection of cold and hot mezze, from mixed meze with cacık, muhammara and hummus, to red prawn carpaccio with pomegranate, olive oil and lime, or the restaurant’s mantı lamb dumplings served with smoked yoghurt and Aleppo chilli oil. Dishes such as wagyu köfte piyaz, chargrilled octopus with herb dressing and smoked paprika, and chargrilled halloumi with cherry and hot honey underline Chargal’s balance of comfort, creativity and finesse.
From the mangal and grill, Chargal leans further into its fire-led identity with dishes including pistachio lamb cutlets with pomme purée and honey pomegranate molasses, sarma beyti, adana, and a selection of wagyu cuts, alongside standout seafood such as Greek wild sea bass with smoked bay leaf, honey lemon dressing and samphire salad. Vegetarian dishes are given equal consideration, with plates such as brown butter sweet potato with kumquat, damascus rose and smoked almond praline reflecting the kitchen’s more nuanced side.
Set across three distinct spaces, a lively ground-floor bar, a more intimate first-floor dining room, and a lounge below for later-evening drinks. Chargal has been designed to move effortlessly from lunch and dinner to celebrations, private dining and cocktails. The experience is rooted in what the restaurant describes as “fire, craft and the timeless art of hospitality,” expressed through warm materials, soft light and an atmosphere of understated luxury.
With its blend of Turkish heritage, Eastern Mediterranean influence and contemporary Mayfair polish, Chargal arrives as a distinctive new destination for London diners seeking bold flavour, beautiful design and a more elevated take on modern Turkish cuisine.
