About Tabla

Tabla nails the generous Middle Eastern feast with house-made flatbread, zesty dips, and flame-grilled meats built for sharing. Tables fill quickly with mezze spreads—silky hummus, baba ganoush, and crunchy fried chicken—before generous platters of tender lamb and spiced chicken take over. Guests often opt for the feed-me banquets when celebrating in the sunny front courtyard or the tented back area, walking away with boxes of leftovers.

  • Abundant Feasting Banquets: Pre-set dining packages and take-home feasts deliver platters of dips, flatbread, and grilled chicken or lamb with plenty left over.
  • Distinct Dining Spaces: Diners can choose between the airy main dining room, the sunlit front courtyard, or a rear tent tailored for events.

  • Flavoursome Mezze & Dips

    Freshly prepared mezze plates including seasoned calamari, house-made flatbread, and dips offer rich shareable flavours.

    The food was incredible, without a doubt some of the best calamari and dips I've ever had.
