An amazing late lunch with friends. The Turkish food is among the best you can find. Every dish was superb and the house red is a good tipple too. This is definitely worth a visit if you're around Raynes Park. Thank you to the chefs and great, warm and friendly staff.

Meat cooked perfectly. Always tender and juicy even the chicken breast is dripping inside with juice plus the staff are so kind and friendly which is the cherry on top of it all. Recommend the mix grill with chilli and garlic sauce with the hummus that has lamb on top (I forget the name).

Up dated review 10th December 2024 Hatay celebrated its 6th anniversary having opened in the December of 2018 and is now well established in the hearts of many of its customers. Its Turkish in it's menu, offerings dishes like Tavuk Cigeri ( chicken livers in port sauteed in butter), now a guest dish Erikli Ordek ( Roasted duck leg with prune served on sweet potato puree and epinabe ) which just falls of the bone currently back on the guest menu .The fish courses have quite a repretation ,Try the Sea Bream which just melts in the mouth and gets better each time i order it ,what the chef Hackream dose with the accompanying sauce has to be tasted which is inspired. Their octopus is to be seen and savored I'm talking whole tentacle not Rings { see customer photos) I personally would recommend the Monk fish accompaned in a tomato white wine sauce. And as for the salmon, 6 stars awarded in my opinion the star fish dish seated on a bed of cream Spinach. A most welcome return Dish ( see photo ) as a personal favourite for a special one day treat .Watch out for more additional dishes from time to time For dessert Incir Tatlisi ( Figs stuffed with walnuts, baked in a sugar syrup, Bailey's cream and served with gelato or Ayva ,Quinceh Found nowhere else is their pistachio icecream bombe, a real palate cleanser at the end of the meal and again in my opinion the top dessert along with the Chocolate bombe. While the carameliised pumpkin is a required taste did try it thou yes was x Let me come back to you on this one . You either love it or hate it I love the flesh , its the skin part that needs to grow on me Think of a paw paw with the skin caramelized.and your near to it in ones mind New dishes are added from time to time Like the house special HATAY SINI KABABI mouthwatering. Or the Turkish Lamb Shank Soup / Paca Corbasi starter A required pallet for the Western European taste buds but well worth a try if like me you like new cuisine . With an excellent wine (and gin list beleave it or not * )what better can you ask .and of course the Raki a most delightful sprit .Turkey at it's best Hatay is currently opened 12pm to 22:00 hrs Tuesday to Saturday 12pm to 21.00hrs Sundays Closed Monday Let them have one day off The venue Seats round 60 inside so plenty of room for groups or just that intermate meal for two or even dining alone . An out side terrace has been added seating 24 customers at various tables Having aretractable awning adds to the atmosphere as photos I took will show ,Windows to the terrace are also retractable reguarding the weather.to add to the omberance. Strangly it's Sunday that are extremely popular so I would advise to book in advance to avoid disappointment I love this venue, very friendly staff now on first names but then l have been back some sixty five plus times ( I'm a devotee ) its established its self and gets better with each visit Do come and try it out for your self Well worth the Five star rating many customers are giving this place. They are currently doing a take out service.with a 15% discount when customers collect themselve at the restaurant . Dilivery is possible to your home by urba Please ring the restaurant for information Also offer is a children's menu for little appetites . Please see web pages

Hatay Restaurant in Wimbledon: A delightful Turkish restaurant serving authentic cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere. Their menu features a variety of mouthwatering dishes, including hot and cold starters, charcoal-grilled specialties, Paca soup and the unique pide. The restaurant is particularly popular for dinner gatherings and offers a welcoming ambiance.

Food is very tasty, and portions are large and filling. Tea is very good (not bitter like many other places). We paid 30 per person for a meal with drinks. Sad state of inflation and cost of living these days. Overall I would recommend this restaurant as a Turkish person.
