Masal Café is a peaceful and cozy spot. The interior looks upscale, but the prices are reasonable. I loved that the music was low and we could actually hear each other talk — a rare find! We had the classic breakfast, menemen, 2 simits and poğaça to share among two adults and a toddler. The classic breakfast came with tea for everyone and fries and bread and pogoca. Everything was fresh and tasty. The staff and owners were welcoming to our playful toddler, which made the experience even better. The ambiance is cute and comfortable, and while the menu is a bit small, it still had something for everyone and works for a breakfast/lunch café. Overall, great food, warm people, and a relaxing atmosphere. We’ll be back!

We came here for Turkish breakfast and wow what a place. The inside is beautiful, super spacious, and feels really comfortable to sit and enjoy your food. Our server was an absolute sweetheart so attentive and genuinely kind the entire time. I think her name was Rayhen (sorry if I’m spelling it wrong), but she truly deserves recognition for how well she treated us. The breakfast was amazing everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and honestly on point. The overall experience was excellent and I definitely recommend this spot. I can’t wait to come back for dinner to try more dishes!

I visited this restaurant for the first time yesterday, and I am absolutely thrilled with everything about it First of all, the staff is incredibly welcoming. I especially want to mention Natalie, who took care of our table. She is such a sweet person and truly made our day. She listened to all of our requests, explained everything on the menu, and gave great recommendations. Her service was perfect And the food – just wow! The kitchen is pure perfection. Every dish tasted amazing and had that special “made with love” feeling, like a real homemade meal. The Turkish breakfast was absolutely outstanding – beautifully presented and unbelievably delicious. The tea was so flavorful too I also want to express my deepest gratitude to the owner of this place. She is not only a beautiful woman on the outside but also has such a kind and beautiful heart. She was so warm, friendly, and truly a pleasure to talk to. I admire her work and how much love and soul she has poured into this restaurant. You can really feel that she lives and breathes what she does To top it all off, she personally prepared coffee for us as a special treat from the restaurant – such a thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more special I genuinely recommend this place to everyone. I was so happy I decided to come here, and now this will definitely be our favorite spot. Everything here is perfect – the food, the atmosphere, the interior. You won’t find hospitality like this anywhere else. It’s simply amazing

Hosted my sister’s bridal shower at Masal this past weekend and the event went beautifully! The owner made the process very smooth and our guests kept complimenting how nice everything was especially the food. Very well pleased with the service and happy I chose this beautiful venue. The owner’s sister also did a fantastic job with the decorations! Thank you again and would highly recommend!

Absolutely loved our experience at this Turkish restaurant! The service was excellent from start to finish warm, attentive, and welcoming. The waitress was so, so nice and made the experience even better with her kindness and smile. The food was incredibly delicious; everything we ordered was full of flavor, but my personal favorite was the hummus and the fresh, warm bread.So yummy! The tea was also perfect, served just right and so comforting. The decor is gorgeous and thoughtfully done, and the restaurant itself was spotless and cozy. It honestly felt like we were just hanging out at home.That’s how relaxed and comfortable the atmosphere was. The owner was also super kind and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this place!can’t wait to go back!
