Twelve different salads arrived at the table before the main course at Turkish Grill, a meat restaurant located in Or Yehuda on the outskirts of Tel Aviv.
The establishment charges 30 Israeli new shekels per diner for this first course, which includes soft Iraqi pitas known as laffas. The menu lists corn, avocado, eggplant, tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet potatoes, beets, cabbage, and eggs among the vegetable and non-vegetable options. A reporter who recently visited the restaurant noted that the offerings were not overly oily or spicy, with the exception of the Turkish salad, which was described as peppery. The sweet potato preparation, cut into small pieces and dipped in date syrup, was highlighted as a favorite by the reviewer.
Alongside the individual starters, the restaurant provides a large salad and a plate of hummus with tahini for sharing. The main course consisted of three massive skewers priced between 42 and 63 shekels. One skewer featured entrecote steak, another held chunks of spring chicken, and the third contained meat dipped in lamb fat to simulate lamb. The reviewer described the steak as crisp on the outside and tender within.
The restaurant operates on a schedule that includes Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to midnight and Saturday after Shabbat until midnight. It remains closed on Fridays. The establishment holds Badatz Beit Yosef kashrut certification. Dessert options on the menu include rotondo, creme brulee, chocolate soufflé, hot chocolate cake, creamino, and handmade baklava, with prices ranging from 20 to 28 shekels.
The dining area was filled with families having an early supper during the visit. The location sits in a largely Sephardi neighborhood. The reviewer finished the meal with sweet green tea rather than selecting a dessert. The restaurant can be reached at 053 623 8221.
The visit was noted as a guest of the restaurant. The address is 2 Ha’Avoda St., Or Yehuda.
