My husband took me out for my birthday weekend and I know he loves Mediterranean food and thought it would be nice to try local spot close to home. When we got there the space was beautiful with modern cultural infusion of design. Keep in mind they have 2 locations. One block away from each other. The old one that people are referring to does look old and worn out.
The greeter was nice to us and allowed us to sit wherever we wish so I chose. Please keep in mind the pIace was not packed at all. More waiters than tables to serve. My husband and I sat waiting. I had the view of all the waiters and no one would step up to serve us.
I don't like the pull race card. I can't stand when people use that as a poor excuse to misbehave, so we waited to be served. I kid you not it was as if the waiters were trying to pass us off on each other to help us. Each of them made eye contact with me and would stand in the distance and act like they dont see me or they look away once our eyes met. They look and as they pass my table they put their head down to not make eye contact with me. I didnt tell my husband anything because my husband is more forgiving than I.
He then realized we were being ignored and we chalked it up to ok maybe in there culture thats how they move, but then we realized wait, the table beside us is being serviced and they have more than 2 guests and came in after us. So now I am clearly irritated.
The waiter finally comes to take care of us as if he lost a bet and he is moving rather fast as if he wanted to get us over with. I thought he wanted us to put in order for dessert one time so he dont have to deal with us a second time. Again its observation and Im just taking mental notes.
We had our meal and it was alright the lamb was pretty dry but I liked the salad and beef. After we completed our dinner the waiter passed by many times never checking on us or even catching a hint that we were done and just sitting there with our plates stacked. I sat for 10 minutes and then signaled him over to order dessert and the check. The waiter knows we owe him payment and he keeps walking away from us then straddling around. How much time do you think we need to gather our payment? The other staff members are aware as well but no one jumps in.
Then I get up with the payment book and stand up in the middle of floor so everyone an see we are standing with the payment and he finally comes over.
I dont know if they encountered servicing a group of black people in the past that rubbed them the wrong way but I was offended. I don't like to carry on in public as people think all black people have no class.
Anyone who decides to visit there be warned they may not be as welcoming and will walk egg-shells around you making you feel uncomfortable. You may not like me because of the color of my skin then you should not serve not me at all because my money is as good as anyone else’s.
BTW they add the gratuity inside the bill.

I had high hopes for MASAL, but my visit was disappointing. Despite several waiters standing around, it took over 10 minutes for anyone to bring us a menu. Once we ordered, we waited 15 minutes for our table to be cleared, and another 14 minutes to receive the check. To top it off, the lamb chops were dry and uninspired. Not the experience I was looking for!

The place was very empty, he called ahead, we made a reservation for live music, when we went without warning, the live music was canceled, this is deceiving the customer.

I had a disappointing experience. The untrained staff messed up my order and even asked me to pay extra for food I didn’t order.
The food quality is below average
