Known for its customizable menu and wide range of ingredients, Lebanese fast-casual brand NAYA will launch a new lineup of Chef’s Creations across all 43 locations in NY, CT, NJ, PA, and MA, on April 14, 2026. The new menu items aim to simplify the ordering experience, introducing ready-to-order options developed by the culinary team that bring together NAYA’s signature ingredients.
“Build-your-own bowls remain central to the NAYA experience,” said Khalfani Coicou, NAYA’s Senior Culinary Development Manager. “But with so many ingredients to choose from, some guests tend to stick with what they know. The curated bowls, roll and salad give them a starting point and encourage them to be a little more adventurous with the bold, fresh flavors at the heart of Lebanese cuisine.”
As NAYA expands beyond urban markets, we see an opportunity to make Lebanese cuisine more accessible to new audiences,” said Hady Kfoury, Founder and CEO of NAYA. “These Chef’s Creations remove friction from the ordering experience while guiding guests toward the flavors that define our menu.”
The Chef’s Creations will become a permanent addition to the menu and are designed to improve ordering efficiency while increasing trial across NAYA’s ingredient offerings.
The new menu items include:
The Classic Braised Beef Bowl — braised beef shawarma, vermicelli rice, lettuce, pickled turnips, cabbage slaw, sumac onions, hummus, and lemon tahani ($14.25)
The Classic Chicken Bowl — chicken shawarma, vermicelli rice, lettuce, pickled cucumbers, tomato, toom, and lemon tahani ($13.25)
The Greek Salad — romaine, cucumbers, tomatoes, green bell pepper, olives, feta, sumac onions, and NAYA’s new Greek dressing ($11.99)
The Falafel and Tahani Roll — six pieces of falafel with hummus, cabbage slaw, pickled turnips, tomatoes, cucumbers, and double lemon tahani ($10.59)
A newly updated falafel recipe brings brighter flavor and color to the brand’s popular plant-based option. The refreshed version incorporates green bell pepper and parsley for a more vibrant, herb-forward profile.
The new offerings are available for in-restaurant dining and digital ordering.
