CONCEPTION
„BALAGAN. A taste of chaos - the right kind of way. "
There is a place in the heart of the city center that may reveal nothing from the outside about what happens inside. From the outside, a dilapidated building, but inside warm colors, soft lights, Mediterranean plants, and then a staircase that leads up - these are all signs that something completely different awaits you. The Balagan is not just a restaurant and bar.
This is an oasis hidden in Akácfa Street. An unpredictable and eclectic yet harmoniously arranged world, where the fusion of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine is served on small plates, and where cocktails not only complement the meal but also create a shared experience.
The term "balagan" means chaos in Hebrew - for us, this chaos becomes a concept. Nothing is conventional here, but everything is in its place.
"Every dish we create tells a story – spicy, surprising, and meant to be shared."

The evening begins with us.
At Balagan, we don’t just cook - we create. Every movement, every ingredient, every spice is exciting, a little chaotic, and yet perfectly in harmony on the plates. We are bold, but we know what we are doing. Our kitchen is open, whether you arrive for a romantic dinner, a friendly gathering, or a special occasion - come and taste the flavors of Balagan!

Perfume Night by Balagan
The Balagan is not just a restaurant and bar - it is the urban living room of the night, where something unexpected always happens. A taste, a scent, a moment… or a bit of chaos with its own mystery.
Balagan Borklub - Salt & Waves
In April, the grape clusters from five countries were poured into a glass.
Balagan x Gourmet Festival
The Balagan-style chaos was also tasteable at the Gourmet Festival this year.
