'From Field to Plate'

Welcome to ALaTurka Restaurants

Indulge in the authentic flavors of Gaziantep, a city and settlement nestled in Turkey's enchanting South Eastern region. At ALaTurka, we take immense pride in serving dishes that originate from this culinary haven, known as the 'Food paradise' due to its rich diversity and fusion of cultures from the ancient Silk Route.

🍽️ Our Journey

ALaTurka is more than just a restaurant; it's a journey that began with Mehmet and his love for food, cultivated in his mother's kitchen amidst the warmth of family and the freshness of farm-grown produce. As the 3rd eldest of 9 siblings from a family of farmers in Gaziantep, Mehmet's passion for cuisine was ignited early on as he played a vital role in sourcing ingredients and preparing meals.

🌱 Farm-to-Table Philosophy

Our roots run deep in Gaziantep, and that's why we believe in a farm-to-table philosophy. Just like how Mehmet worked alongside his father to grow and sell produce in local markets, our chefs carefully select the freshest ingredients to craft dishes that exude authenticity and the essence of Turkish cuisine.

💖 Our Dedication to You

At ALaTurka, we believe in providing the best possible service to our cherished customers. We take immense joy in welcoming people of all cultures, inviting them to embark on a culinary adventure and savor the delightful flavors of Turkey. Our mission is to introduce you to the heartwarming hospitality and soulful dishes that Gaziantep is renowned for.
