Masada
From the family that brought "Sultan's market" established in 1995, in Chicago, has now finally after 10 years building and preparing for their newest venture "MASADA" named after the family matriarch "Masada Ramli". The concept began when the "Ramli's" took a tour of the Middle East visiting Jordan, Lebanon, and the Palestinian Territories. After getting getting back to the states there was a yearning for that same magical, mystical, warm silky aired nights filled with pungent smells of spices wafting through those bustling souks and cafes that they decided to recreate the same atmosphere here in Logan square Chicago. A task that would send the family into 10 years of designing, studying, and building of what there version of a family restaurant with true middle eastern flavors and sounds that would touch all your 4 senses, which was no easy task. Brick by brick and many nights of burning the midnight oil the concept started to take shape of an atmosphere that is truly authentic. As you walk through the restaurant you will notice the passion the Ramli's love for family and food. Portraits of that vacation that inspired "MASADA" and memories are covering the interior walls that wrap around a breath taking court yard for outdoor dining leading to the roof top dining under the stars and sky. Enjoy and a thousand blessing be upon you!
