Turkish cooking first
Saray Restaurant Charcoal Grill is a Turkish restaurant in El Cajon, CA. The menu centers on Mediterranean Cuisine and Kebabs, so the first choice is often the style of meal rather than a single plate. That matters on a first visit. Someone can come in looking for grilled food with warm bread, herbs, and a table meal built around the charcoal grill. The kitchen also suits lunch or dinner, with the same focus carried through the meal.
The restaurant name points to the grill, and the food follows that lead. Kebabs fit a meal that reaches the table hot and direct, with char from the grill carrying much of the flavour. Mediterranean Cuisine gives room for dishes around that core. A guest can plan for a sit-down meal, keep it light, or build a plate around grilled items. The setting stays casual and focused on the food on the table. the menu page covers the kitchen’s structure and a few representative dishes.
