Suraya menu: mezze and the grill

Suraya dinner menu examples

Selected examples from SeEat’s September 10, 2026 dinner capture, checked against the official dinner PDF September 30. The saved menu contains 32 records, not every service format or the complete current offering. Confirm the format and availability for your meal.

Three mains with different accompaniments

Read what comes with the main before adding another side. These are comparisons, not ranked favorites.

Ground beef with hummous

Kafta Kebab

The beef kebab entry names cumin, mint, parsley and onion, with hummous and charred vegetables. Compare it with Halabi Kebab, which uses ground lamb brushed with muhammara. Changing between them changes the protein and the walnut-containing spread, not just the name.

Whole grilled poussin with potatoes and toum

Djej Meshwi

This chicken entry names a whole poussin marinated with sumac, lemon, garlic and thyme, with charred potatoes and toum. Compare that combination with the kebab’s hummous and vegetables. Confirm portion suitability with staff rather than treating one whole bird as a fixed number of diners.

Mushroom kebab with white beans

Fasolia Bi Fatar

The oyster-mushroom kebab comes with braised white beans, watercress, almond and radish. It offers a mushroom-and-bean direction compared with the meat kebabs. Mujadara instead centers rice and lentils with vegetables and shugg; read both complete recipes before drawing dietary conclusions.

Build the order around format and preparation

Use the menu’s distinctions to avoid choosing the same accompaniment twice.

1. 01

   Confirm the dinner format first

   The official PDF includes A Taste of Suraya, a whole-party format with table mezze, further mezze and grill choices, and a chef-selected dessert. Confirm whether that format applies to your meal before ordering separate dishes. SeEat’s captured item list does not describe every set-menu rule.

2. 02

   Choose raw or cooked intentionally

   Kibbeh Nayyeh explicitly contains raw lamb and bulgur; Samke Nayyeh names raw yellowtail and labneh. A cold-mezze heading does not mean every dish is raw. If you prefer cooked food, compare the grilled mains and hot mezze instead of relying on an unfamiliar name.

3. 03

   Read the extras in vegetable dishes

   Fatteh includes yogurt, almonds, cashews and brown butter. Arnabeet Mekle pairs cauliflower with raisins, hazelnuts and tarator; Warak Selek includes labneh and pine nuts. Vegetables in the title do not settle dairy or nut ingredients. Ask about the full preparation if they affect your choice.

Suraya menu words that change the choice

Mezza and mashawi

The menu separates cold and hot mezza from mashawi mains. Use those sections to compare preparation and accompaniments; they do not establish fixed portion sizes.

Tehina and labneh

Hummous and Baba Ganoush name tehina, a sesame paste; labneh is strained yogurt. Similar-looking dips can therefore have different ingredients.

Muhammara

The menu’s pepper-and-walnut dip also coats Halabi Kebab. Check the spread as well as the lamb when choosing that main.

Nayyeh

In these two entries it signals raw lamb or raw fish. Read the named protein and dressing together rather than treating all cold mezze as equivalent.
