Masaya Restaurant in Berlin

I went here with my colleagues for dinner. It was a sudden plan and we decided to go here looking at the good reviews. But we were not disappointed, they amazing food. It's best to go here in group as they have huge platters that can be shared. Starting from starters, main course and dessert, everything we loved. They had different varieties of spread which were all different in taste. The environment was great and well and the service was amazing. I would definitely recommend this place to you.

Very, very tasty food and super friendly staff. I always enjoy being here.

Great food with many options. Very friendly and helpful staff. Generous portions!

Very, very tasty food! The platter for two people was plentiful and there was even a dessert plate. The kitchen attaches great importance to its own production and fresh preparation, which you can taste. The staff was super friendly, and the chef himself came to check if everything was OK. TOP, and gladly again! I wish the restaurant continued success!

Very tasty food. The lamb is to die for.

We were here today with a very large group and had a great evening! The food was extremely tasty and everything else was fantastic. If I lived in Berlin, I would come back regularly. I wish you all the best!

Nice food and generous people! Pleasant experience.

A bit expansive but delicious Lebanese food and nice ambience.

the food and wine were tasteless! we couldn't finish our meal even though we were hungry. the service was slow, we waited 10 minutes for the waiter to take our order, 40 minutes for the food and another 15 minutes trying to catch the waiter's eye so he would bring the bill

Very nice restaurant in a car-free zone. The outdoor terrace is simply great when the weather is nice. The food met our expectations. The service responds to your wishes. Gladly again.

Excellent and authentic Lebanese food.

The reception is very wonderful. A respectable, polite Moroccan young man. I liked the food very much, the amount of food was plentiful and delicious. Lebanese appetizers that are beyond description for me. The most amazing seafood dish. Followed by the unparalleled Lebanese desserts dish. The owner of the restaurant, Mr. Haitham, is very kind and generous to us with his hospitality and kindness. I highly recommend it.

The service was a total catastrophy, we waited 1 hour to get our starters (cold ones) : Tabouleh salad, hummus and babaganoush, they tasted good but it doesnt take 60mns to prepare that, and 2 reminders about our order (6 people), in a quasi empty restaurant. Another 20mns latter we finally got the warm meat dishes... they made a gesture by putting another dish free of charge, but that dont compensate. The waitress was friendly, however to wait at a table 1 hour to get food in an almost empty restaurant is something we will remember for a long time

Kenan gave us excellent advice, he is extremely friendly. The food was very good.

The main course was served even though the starter hadn't been eaten yet...food was good quality

The hosts are friendly, the garden offers a natural shadow, but the food does not impress and is overpriced compared to many restaurants in Berlin. Can not recommend it.

If you want to experience authentic and good Lebanese cuisine, this is the right place. The food, the friendly service and the ambience are top. The restaurant owner was also very friendly and accommodating. I have a clear recommendation.

Heel gezellige terras in een autovrije straat. Super vriendelijke bediening. Lekker eten en veel! Zeker een aanrader!

Best food i try in berlin like a travel to lebanon in 1 hour

Ate a main course and many starters, everything was very tasty and the service was great. You have to try the milk cream for dessert

NEVER AGAIN!!!Sunday 11.08.24 in the early evening! The two of us ordered the menu twice with the 6 starter bowls on the almost empty terrace! The colleague understood almost nothing, but that wasn't a problem since my companion was a GERMAN MOROCCAN and spoke Arabic! The 6 starters were put down without any further explanation and the cutlery came later! The starters were very good, but the main course, 3 types of meat described, was almost inedible, tough as rubber, dry and completely tasteless! The “bells and whistles” of side dishes were the USUAL like in every Arabic or Turkish establishment…….! It's a shame, because I've experienced Lebanese cuisine in a completely different way! The flatbread was on the same level…..! Since no one was at the table for a long time, we put all the dishes with the inedible meat on the neighboring tables ourselves, we were the only guests....! No coffee (which was surprisingly good) "on the house" helped, the evening meal was a waste and a waste of time (and of course the money 2 menu + 3 small beers approx. 85 €) NEVER AGAIN ! J. Scharf & M. Arbarkouk

It was at the top. We really liked the kitchen. The lamb was magnificent. 🥰 Congratulations to the team!!! Thank you so much!

Ate mezze. Half of the dishes were fine to tasty, but the muhammara tasted mainly of spicy paprika powder and the baba ganoesh was not tasty. The tablecloth was still dirty (old rice grains and stains) and on Saturday evening almost the entire restaurant was empty. I don't understand the five stars of the previous reviews.

By far the best Lebanese restaurant in Berlin.

Hatte im August 2024 meinen zweiten Besuch hier. Essen und Service absolute Spitze. Nicht etwas für jeden Abend rein preislich gesehen, aber definitiv eine super Adresse für lebanesische Küche in Berlin. Absolute Empfehlung!

Among the tastiest Lebanese restaurants I've been to - will definitely return

Very fine Levantine cuisine made with love!We had a variety of dishes and loved every bite of the meal, also the price is appropriate for the value!

Excellent Lebanese restaurant: the dishes are served very generously and with a smile!

How do you calculate table number 30? 35 euros. I was a student and I had an Arabic shawarma for 10 euros. It is reasonable. 3 drinks of Sprite, a small size, are 25 euros. What is it? Is it a fraud?

Food is amazing, I 100% recommend it.

Top service. Top food. Top location: clear recommendation!

This is a hidden gem. I eat here every week now, because it’s one of the best arabic places I have been to. Love the rice with lamb, the hummus, the falafel… really everything. And Nicola and his crew are going beyond to make you feel good. Thanks a lot for the great food and service

Amazing restaurant with delicious menu, I will come back

Atmosphere is excellent, the food is amazing and the staff is very friendly

Good food. Our waitress was rude and inattentive, but the other waitstaff were helpful to compensate.

- Very tasty and fresh meat! - Super nice service! - Idyllic ambience, especially in the outdoor area. :) Restaurant is definitely recommended!

Food was exquisite and the staff was very attentive.

One of the best Lebanese restaurants in Berlin. The food and service is very good. The fish with the side dishes is highly recommended. The dessert platter was very extensive and beautifully decorated for 4 people. Overall a great experience. We will be back!

The food is super delicious. The service is friendly and attentive.

The food and salad were amazing, and the staff were really friendly and nice. The atmosphere is very pleasant, especially the outside area. It did take a bit too long to receive our food and get the staff's attention, but they apologized for that. Overall, I still highly recommend this restaurant.

Many thanks to the Masaya team for our beautiful wedding celebration! The food was super delicious, from starter to main course! Everything was taken care of and no wishes were left unfulfilled. It gave everyone a satisfied smile and a sense of well-being. Communication was flawless and very professional. Even so, a taste explosion every time.

We visited Masaya in February and it's definitely been one of my favourite restaurant experiences - ever. The food was great (+ those portion sizes for such a reasonable price, how?!) and service was impeccable. We can't wait to come back!

Great dishes, great atmosphere and staff. Take a look. 🤤

Great falafels! All of our other food was lovely too. Friendly and attentive service. Nice atmosphere sitting outside. Will be back!

Exceptionally delicious food - very fresh and decent portions.

Amazing food and ambience. Only issue was slow service. It took around an hour to get our order. Once the food came in, it was all good but should improve the service.

The food was good with large portion sizes, but the service was very slow. It took 1 hour for the appetizers to arrive. The outdoor terrace is nice in good weather.

We went on an excursion to Berlin and were very impressed by various international cuisines. Yesterday evening it was Lebanon's turn with its diversity, thank you, I'll be happy to do it again when we go on another excursion. It's great that you spontaneously organized space for 15 people.

A very tasty and well presented meal in a calm and relaxed atmosphere

I loved the menu and the friendly service, everything was delicious including the Lebanese wine Rosé, and the dessert was perfect ♥️

Ottimo ristorante libanese, cucina veramente molto buona e servizio gentile. Ho mangiato i falafel più buoni della mia vita, valorizzati dal loro buonissimo thè. Purtroppo non sono riuscita ad assaggiare i dolci, che avevano un aspetto fantastico. Davvero una esperienza fantastica.

The Arabic version of Kenefe and the coffee are very tasty, I will definitely come back again

Good atmosphere delicious food friendly service.

Sehr leckeres Essen und netter Service. Die Portionen sind sehr großzügig.Alles frisch zubereitet. Alles top. Gerne wieder !!

Very good food, very friendly service! The way to your heart is through your stomach: you must try Kharouf Mehshi!!! Family-run restaurant! You can tell that fresh ingredients are used and that the chef puts a lot of effort into the cuisine and also serves a culinary journey to Lebanon on the plate. Really great experience, rare and happy again!

Very nice service and excellent food. Especially the liver, the moutabbal and the kofta were very good!

Amazing find while wandering around Berlin. Order the fixed plate options, but don't eat lunch beforehand, they have great serving sizes! Food variety and presentation was wonderful. Would definitely recommend! Even was allowed to take a to go bag for my leftovers.

Far too expensive for an unexciting meal. Falafel was tasty but hardly accompanied. Already had better prepared falafel in the snack bar.

Really good mezze and authentic Libanese food.

This meal doesn't do Lebanese cuisine justice in any way, it was just boring, carelessly served (not even a slice of lemon for decoration) and bland in taste. And also very expensive. We had 2 different Lebanese red wines, both cost almost 10€ for 0.2L and both were not tasty at all. Conclusion: A completely overpriced restaurant in a beautiful location. So it was no wonder that there were only two other tables occupied besides us at the best time of meal.

Super delicious food and very nice chef! The falafel was excellent.

Very rich food, very tasty, very friendly and good service. Ambience rather average. Still recommended.

A visit to Masaya Restaurant is a real treat for the senses! The aromas of Arabic cuisine unfold on the plate to create a feast that delights the palate and the heart in equal measure. The staff is extremely accommodating and makes you feel comfortable from start to finish. The atmosphere is inviting and cozy. Overall, an unforgettable dining experience that I highly recommend to everyone

Delicious food, amazing service!!

Delicious. Friendly staff. Amazing!

A great dining experience! I really enjoyed the meal in this wonderful restaurant, where the dishes were very tasty and varied. The service was excellent and friendly and there were no delays with orders. Besides, the location of the place is excellent and the decor is nice and cozy. It is the perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal with family or friends. I will definitely come back 😊

A respectable shop and the shop owner is very, very respectful

Visited this place twice in one week. There may be some hip places in Berlin with similar cuisine, however Masaya beats them all in quality of food. Their falafel is the best I've had so far. Superb food, and great Lebanese wines as well. Try the Arak as well! The people working there are also super friendly.

Very good address, good value for money, very friendly service. Address further from the center but well worth the detour

We had a really wonderful evening. The tables were beautifully set and the service was courteous and very helpful. We chose a suggested menu with a variation of 10 starters, a meat platter and dessert and were thrilled with the selection we got. We probably wouldn't have chosen a lot of it ourselves, but everything tasted excellent. I have rarely eaten such good lamb.

We really enjoyed the food there. Everything was freshly prepared and varied. We had the Oriental plate VIP. This was really lush and varied. The service was very attentive and friendly. We will definitely come back. Thank you for this great evening.

Super attentive service! Great food! Ambiance can still be improved....fresh flowers would be nicer and worthy of the food, if napkins were of a bit higher quality...

This family owned restaurant was a fantastic place to eat with very friendly service. The cuisine was heavenly with rich flavors in every dish. Everything was fresh and well prepared. Would recommend getting the meal option with included chef’s choice appetizers, main dish and dessert to get the full experience! Lots of vegetarian options and heart healthy selections.

This was an unforgettable experience! The food was fresh and delicious. The restaurant is owned by a very friendly and charismatic family. I’d highly recommend this place!

Very nice staff, the food was really good, well-kept and very clean restaurant, we will definitely come back.

Visiting this restaurant for the third time now because it's really worth it. The food, prices and everything are more than perfect.

What an amazing restaurant. Food was delicious. Totally recommend.

The food was very tasty. The restaurant is clean.

Yesterday we went to Masaya with the family for the first time. First impression: Very friendly staff who are nice to serve and the food can't be beat. Fresh, delicious and tastes great.

Masaya is the best restaurant and the most beautiful reception It offers the most delicious foods and dishes

Among the Lebanese restaurants I visited in Berlin, Masaya Restaurant was one of the best. This restaurant is located in a quiet and beautiful street, and is distinguished by its simple and elegant decor, and its outdoor terrace, which provides a wonderful view of the city. The service in the restaurant was prompt and courteous, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming.

A nice restaurant with a good selection of food. Unfortunately, special requests, such as a mixed starter plate, could not be ordered. Can only be ordered individually. Otherwise everything was very tasty and the service was good too.

Deliciously spiced, very generous portions - we were very happy with our platter of various types of lebanese food! Waiter was super friendly and caring.

Good experience, elegant restaurant and nice staff ❤️

Mega tasty, very friendly staff. Great ambience. Any time

I had dinner at Masaya with my wife today and I have to say I was fascinated by the authenticity and the pleasant atmosphere. The staff who served us were super friendly and despite my relatively late change of order, everything went smoothly!

I was surprised. I never thought there was a restaurant with the same name as me in Berlin. And what about Lebanese food? I decided that I had no choice but to go, so I visited in the evening after preparing for Lebanese cuisine. When I showed them my passport and told them I was also Masaya, they were very happy. The first time I tried Lebanese food, it was very delicious and had a flavor that even Japanese people could enjoy with confidence. I especially wanted to copy the rice cooked with minced meat at home. Thank you for the meal.

Food was simply 100%... very highly recommended... service was also great. Thank you very much, we'll be back

It's tasty and it's healthy. It's mediterranean and fresh. But one goes to a restaurant not only because it's tasty or healthy. It's about the warm hospitality, relaxing candle atmosphere and responsive and good service.

Cocina libanesa 100% auténtica, con platos grandes y precio ajustado. No pudimos terminar con todo. Recomendable

Sehr leckere Orientalische Speisen, große Portion Nette Bedienung

Very tasty Lebanese food. Great value and huge portions. Service was a little slow but all the staff were very friendly

Nous avons mangé ici pour le réveillon et avons passé un moment incroyable. Dépaysement total avec une cuisine exquise. Ambiance au top !

Sehr leckeres Essen, freundliche Bedienung, entspannte Atmosphäre. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Sehr leckeres Essen, liebevoll garniert, Preise angemessen, sehr nette und freundliche Bedienung. Alles perfekt! Danke.

Great food and the service was very friendly, an excellent experience

Super gut wir kommen wieder Dankeschön

cibo ottimo libanese, porzioni abbondanti, bel ristorante, cameriere molto gentile

A culinary journey to Lebanon! This restaurant serves up an unforgettable experience. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended for a taste of authentic Lebanese cuisine!

Hervorragend, alle Gänge, außerordentlich delikate Vorspeisen, butterzartes Fleisch, leckerer Fisch, krosse Kartoffeln und würziger Reis. Vom Nachtisch ganz zu schweigen. Da läuft einem das Wasser im Mund zusammen. Wir kommen auf alle Fälle wieder!
