Halal Restaurant in Mayfair

Chargal is a halal restaurant in Mayfair serving refined Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine from an open fire kitchen on Berkeley Street. All meat is sourced to meet halal standards, prepared with care and cooked over oak charcoal in keeping with Turkish tradition. Whether joining for lunch, dinner or a private gathering, guests can dine with confidence knowing the kitchen upholds these standards throughout every service.

Halal Dining in the Heart of London

Finding a restaurant in Mayfair that combines quality cooking, a refined atmosphere and full commitment to sourcing can be difficult. Many of the area’s best known restaurants offer limited options for diners who follow dietary guidelines rooted in faith. Chargal was built without that compromise. Every cut of beef, lamb and chicken on the menu is sourced from approved suppliers, and the kitchen treats this as a baseline, not a feature.

The restaurant occupies a three storey space on Berkeley Street, moments from Green Park and Berkeley Square. The ground floor is lively and social, suited to lunches and early evening meals. The first floor dining room is quieter and more refined, ideal for longer dinners, celebrations and business entertaining. Below, the lounge offers cocktails, small plates and a late night atmosphere for those who want to continue the evening.

This range of spaces means that whether you are looking for a relaxed meal with friends, a special occasion dinner or somewhere to host a corporate gathering, the setting adapts to suit. The food, the service and the surroundings all work together to deliver a dining experience that feels complete, not a version of something else.

The Menu at Chargal

The menu is rooted in Turkish and Eastern Mediterranean cooking, built around open fire techniques that bring depth and character to every dish. Cold mezze to start, including smoked aubergine, beef tartare and seasonal crudites. Hot mezze that moves through chargrilled squid, lamb dumplings, crispy prawns and wagyu kofte. From the mangal, expect pistachio lamb cutlets, dry aged steak, adana kebab and whole grilled fish.

For those seeking a steak experience, the restaurant dry ages all beef in house for a minimum of 28 days. The selection includes A5 Kagoshima wagyu sirloin, purebreed wagyu fillet and a 1.5kg tomahawk for sharing. These are serious cuts, cooked over charcoal and served simply.

Lighter options sit comfortably alongside the larger plates. Stuffed baked aubergine, seasonal vegetable dishes and fresh salads are all part of the offering. The kitchen does not treat plant based food as an afterthought. It receives the same attention as everything else on the menu.

Desserts, a carefully selected wine list and a cocktail programme round out the experience. Bookings for lunch and dinner can be made through the website, and the team is happy to accommodate specific dietary requirements with advance notice.

Private Dining and Group Bookings

For larger gatherings, Chargal offers private dining rooms that can be tailored to the occasion. Whether you are hosting a family celebration, a business dinner or a group meal during a religious holiday, the restaurant provides flexible spaces, bespoke menus and service that adapts to the tone of the event.

Private rooms can accommodate a range of group sizes, and the team will work with you on menu selection, timing and any specific requirements. Many guests choose Chargal for occasions where the food needs to reflect both quality and consideration, and the restaurant is well equipped to deliver on both.
