Pretty good but vegan cheese weird - Edit
We really wanted to love the pide, it had great potential but the vegan cheese had a weird taste (and normally I love vegan cheese). We both said we could taste a weird taste and worked out it was the cheese. It was ok once we scraped it off.

Must-Visit Vegan Spot in Kadıköy - Edit
Vegan Masa in Kadıköy is a must-visit for plant-based food lovers. The vegan künefe and lahmacun are both incredibly well-crafted, but the real surprise was the ayran aşı soup — refreshing and full of flavor. A rare find that combines tradition and creativity in all the right ways. Highly recommended!

Danke für die tollen türkischen veganen Gerichte - Edit
Veganer türkischer Himmel 😃 Die klassischen türkischen Gerichte 100% vegan. Es hat uns alles super geschmeckt. Wir haben zu viert das große Menü für drei Personen bestellt und sind satt geworden.

Best food in town - Edit
It's a place I've been coming to regularly before and after becoming vegan. Of course, I visited the new branch. I hope there will be many more new branches. They always provide the best taste, quality and a peaceful environment.

Must eat here! - Edit
Amazing authentic and fun Turkish food! Sophisticated modern ambiance with delicious food. Four of us shared the 3 person mixed pide and lahmacun. It was plenty and a great way to sample several varieties. Their fresh lavash base was excellent! Just loved it!

Don’t be Kadi - Coy! - Edit
This place is awesome. Lahmahcun and Pida both very good, but get that lemon juice and chilli flakes on both as otherwise maybe a little bland. Rice pudding dish (sulcuk?) was so good we got another.. Nice staff!

incredibly delicious - Edit
woow, this was so good! I had the Lacmanchu & a pide with soymeat and cheese. Since I read in one review that the pides are underwhelming I almost did not order it. I'm so glad I still did, it was sooo delicious! I also tried the Ayran, which I personally did not like but it tastes pretty much what I remember real Ayran tasting like 😊

Authentic Turkish dishes - hit & miss - Edit
Vegan Masa is set in a lovely location in the heart of Kadikoy. The interior is clean and open with lots of seating. They have a large variety of veganised Turkish dishes which are hard to find elsewhere. We tried the selection for two and the couplet. The couplet was fantastic and definitely the standout item, it had amazing flavours. However, we tried all four pide and the majority were quite bland. They lacked the depth of flavour in the couplet and in our opinion aren't worth it. We recommend getting a couplet and lahmacun!
Read morePros: Good menu, Some tasty options, Nice location
Cons: Poor pide, Quite pricey

Vegan Hünkar Beğendi - Edit
İçindeki patlıcan oranı biraz daha arttırılırsa orjinal hünkar beğendiyi aratmayacak kadar lezzetli olabilir. 😇

Every time I visit Istanbul, Vegan Masa is a must! - Edit
Whether it's the Beşiktaş or Kadıköy branch, I always make sure to stop by. They offer incredible veganized versions of classic Turkish cuisine that truly capture the original flavors. So far, I've tried the vegan lahmacun, vegan pide, vegan yayla soup, vegan içli köfte (stuffed meatball), vegan beyti kebab, vegan hünkar beğendi, vegan ayran, and vegan kazandibi—and honestly, it's hard to express just how much I enjoyed every single dish.
Read moreEven my non-vegan friends are amazed that these dishes are fully plant-based. The flavors, textures, and presentation are all incredibly well done. The staff is always warm and welcoming, the restaurant itself is clean, beautifully decorated, and the overall atmosphere is super cozy.
I strongly recommend Vegan Masa to anyone—vegan or not—looking to experience delicious Turkish food in a compassionate and sustainable way.
I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to the restaurant managers and owners for their support and honorable stance in defending the democratic rights of the Turkish people.
