Aya Lebanese Cuisine Sutton is a family run Lebanese restaurant on Sutton High Street. The family’s food story began in 1994 and later grew from catering and takeaway service into a group of London restaurants. At the Sutton branch, handcrafted decor, warm hospitality and a broad menu create a setting suited to casual meals, family occasions and larger celebrations.
Cold and hot mezze give diners many ways to start and share. Hummus, moutabal, tabbouleh, fattoush, vine leaves and Lebanese salad bring together herbs, vegetables, pulses, olive oil and citrus. Falafel, kibbeh, cheese pastries, lamb pastries, halloumi and calamari add warmer and richer options, allowing a table to build a varied spread before choosing a main course.
Charcoal grills are a major focus, including marinated lamb cubes, shish taouk, kafta, chicken wings and combinations of several skewers. Chicken and lamb shawarma are served with their traditional garlic or tahini sauces, pickles and accompaniments. Mixed grills arrive with garnish, grilled tomato and vermicelli rice, while a platter of seasonal grilled vegetables provides a substantial vegan alternative.
The wider menu includes Lebanese home cooking such as aubergine and chickpea moussaka, okra stew and slow cooked lamb shank. Charcoal grilled sea bass, prawns and other seafood add further choice, and set feasts bring mezze, mixed grill and baklava together for two people. Fresh juices, soft drinks and traditional sweets complete a menu designed for both individual meals and generous sharing.
