Turkish Food Catering in the Niagara Region, Crafted in St. Catharines

Murjan is rooted in Turkish and Mediterranean culinary traditions. Our catering showcases the dishes that define this heritage, from Karışık Meze and lavaş bread to charcoal-grilled kebaps, wholesome stews, and classic desserts. Every order is prepared in-house at our St. Catharines restaurant so you receive food that looks beautiful on the table and tastes freshly made.

Hosts appreciate that Anatolian cuisine naturally suits group dining. The flavours are bright and aromatic. The dishes are shareable. The menu spans meat, seafood, and vegetarian selections, which makes planning simpler for mixed groups and varying tastes.

Start with Meze: A Welcoming Spread Your Guests Will Love

In Turkish culture, meze introduces the meal and sets a warm, convivial tone. For catered events, meze platters present beautifully and encourage guests to mingle and graze while you finalize seating or speeches.

  • Karışık Meze (Mixed Appetizer): a curated assortment that may include favourites such as Hummus, Haydari, Muhammara, Babaganoush, Ezme, and Soslu Patlıcan
  • Cacık (cool cucumber and yogurt dip)
  • Lavaş hollow bread for breaking and sharing
  • Feta Plate and olives

Round out the welcome table with fresh salads that brighten the palate:

  • Çoban Salata (Shepherd’s Salad) with tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and herbs
  • Yeşil Salata (House Salad) for a crisp, refreshing option
  • Piyaz Salatası (White Bean Salad), a hearty Mediterranean classic

Signature Kebaps and Grills for Satisfying Mains

For the heart of your menu, Murjan’s kebaps and grills offer crowd-pleasing flavour and generous aromas that fill the room. These mains pair beautifully with rice, grilled vegetables, and salad sides.

  • Döner Kebap, thinly sliced and savoury
  • Adana-style selections, including Chicken Adana Kebap and Grilled Lamb Adana Kebap
  • Chicken Şiş Kebap and Beef Şiş Kebap
  • Lamb Şiş Kebap and Lamb Köfte
  • Special Beyti Kebap, a guest favourite for special occasions
  • Mixed Grill for Two scaled for larger groups

These dishes bring the essence of the Turkish grill to your event, with bold spices balanced by fresh herbs, lemon, and yogurt-based accompaniments. Our team can recommend pairings that travel well and serve smoothly at your location.

Fresh-Baked Turkish Specialties: Lahmacun and Pide

Turkish-style pastries and flatbreads are flexible options that fit lunches, receptions, and late-evening bites. They slice easily for sharing and hold up nicely for self-serve stations.

  • Lahmacun, Turkish-style pizza topped with finely seasoned meat and herbs
  • Kaşarlı Pide (Cheese Pide) for a comforting vegetarian-friendly choice
  • Ispanaklı Pide (Spinach and Feta Pide) for a savoury green option

These specialties pair well with meze and salads, and they are a smart way to offer something warm that pleases both adventurous and classic palates.

Seafood, Sauté, and Vegetarian Dishes to Complete the Table

For events that call for more variety, Murjan can incorporate seafood and hearty sauté dishes. Hosts often combine one or two seafood selections with kebaps and a vegetable-based entrée for balance.

  • Grilled Mediterranean Sea Bass, Levrek Izgara
  • Atlantic Salmon
  • Shrimp Casserole, Karides Güveç, or Shrimp Sauté
  • Vegetable Sauté, Güveç
  • Okra Sauté, Bamya
  • Stuffed Cabbage, Etli Lahana Dolma
  • Moussaka, a classic comfort dish that works well on buffet-style menus

  • Pistachio Baklava or Chocolate Hazelnut Baklava
  • Künefe for a signature Turkish finale when conditions allow
  • Pistachio Gelato or Dark Chocolate Mousse for a modern touch
