NAYA Opens Second Boston-Area Restaurant, Offers $1 Meals for Charity
NAYA will welcome customers at 41 Bond St. in Watertown’s Arsenal Yards on January 31, 2025. To celebrate the launch, they’re offering $1 meals, with all money going to the Watertown Community Foundation.
From 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM, visitors can enjoy free Lebanese coffee while local musicians play live. The celebration includes prize wheel spins where guests can win drinks and other goodies.
What began as a small New York restaurant in 2008 has grown into 30 locations across five states, including Connecticut, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
The opening celebration runs for three days. The second day features family fun – kids eat free with adult meal purchases, while artists do face paintings and caricatures from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM on February 1.
Team members will jump into the cold at Bond Square on February 2, taking part in the Special Olympics Massachusetts Polar Plunge from 10:00 AM to noon as the final celebration.
At NAYA, diners build their own meals. The menu allows them to combine Middle Eastern flavors in bowls, stuffed pita rolls, or fresh salads.
With one spot already running in downtown Boston on Summer Street, the restaurant chain plans to open its third location in Back Bay by the end of the year.
The Watertown location will be open seven days a week. All money made on opening day will help local programs through the Watertown Community Foundation, which supports community needs through various initiatives.
