THE STORY BEHIND MODA
About Us
THE STORY OF MODA
A Family-Inspired Culinary Journey
Moda’s name is inspired by “Mom & Dad,” reflecting the family values, warmth, and sense of belonging that shape everything we do. Founded in 2024 with our first café and restaurant, Moda began as a vision to bring together European and Mediterranean flavors in a welcoming, family-inspired experience. In 2026, we expanded with Moda Cafe & Bakery in Richmond, Texas.
At our Richmond café and bakery, we offer French pastries, traditional Turkish desserts, and specialty coffee crafted with care. At our Chantilly restaurant, we bring together Italian, Turkish, and Mediterranean cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere, always focused on quality ingredients and time-honored recipes.
From handcrafted desserts to signature dishes and specialty chocolates, Moda reflects a blend of tradition, craftsmanship, and genuine hospitality in every detail.
The Moda Experience
Bringing People Together, One Table at a Time
Across both of our distinct locations, our mission remains rooted in genuine hospitality and culinary excellence. Whether you are gathering for an award-winning, rich Turkish breakfast and premium weekend brunch in Texas, or enjoying a beautifully curated Mediterranean dinner in Virginia, every dish tells a story of passion and craftsmanship.
From our freshly brewed artisanal coffees and daily baked artisan pastries to our signature lunch and dinner menus, we invite you to step away from the daily rush. At Moda, we don’t just serve exceptional food; we provide an inviting, warm atmosphere where friends and families can unwind, connect, and savor memorable moments together.

I just tried Lamb Benedict. The fresh sourdough bread was absolutely amazing. The lamb was slow-cooked, juicy, and so tender. The portion size was also very generous. Special thanks to Manager (Joseph). He is very attentive and welcoming. I would definitely recommend it!Posted on Google

Sam BAugust 30, 2026Eren, thank you for making this visit so wonderful. Your warm hospitality, attentive service, and genuine care made our experience at Moda Chantilly truly unforgettable from the moment we walked through the door. It is rare to find a place that balances incredible atmosphere with such consistently exceptional customer care, but you made us feel like valued guests throughout our entire meal. Beyond the fantastic service, the food was spectacular—and the baklava was, without a doubt, the absolute highlight. Flaky, perfectly sweetened, and fresh, it was easily some of the best we’ve ever had. Thank you again for your outstanding kindness and hospitality, Eren. You made our visit extra special, and we are already looking forward to coming back soon!+3Posted on Google
RebekahAugust 30, 2026The food was absolutely delicious, exceptionally flavorful and authentically Turkish! But what surpassed the food was the service, both from our waitress and the whole staff! We felt truly welcomed and taken care of, which made our evening feel all the more special. Make sure to try the San Sebastián Cheesecake - Phenomenal!! And delicious Turkish Tea+1Posted on Google
Flower MAugust 29, 2026Upon entering the establishment, one is received with the air of a most distinguished guest; the interior is remarkably capacious and of a beauty that borders on the sublime, offering a cornucopia of comestibles and pastries of every conceivable variety, whilst the staff attend to one with a courtesy and vigilance that is nothing short of exemplary.Posted on Google
Susan RAugust 29, 2026Moda Cafe offers excellent food, beautiful decor, and the largest dessert case we have ever seen, but what makes the restaurant REALLY standout is the incredible staff who works there!! They are truly some of the kindest and most hospitable people! Last night we brought two other couples who had never been (nor have they had Turkish food) and we were wowed by Raman, our server, and Eren, for the evening. Raman’s recommendations and all of the little things he did for our group were perfect. He went above and beyond the entire evening! He made our friends’ first visit, an incredibly memorable one! In return, my friends asked for several business cards, so they could share with their work colleagues. The power of great food AND great service! Moda Cafe never disappoints. If you are looking for an authentic Turkish culinary experience, we definitely recommend Moda Cafe!+0Posted on Google

Catlover23August 25, 2026Lahmacun straight out of the oven, blistered and still bubbling slightly, lemon and parsley on the side. Toghrul brought it the second it was ready instead of parking it under a heat lamp. That timing is the whole dish.Posted on Google
Matt MAugust 25, 2026Worked here for two hours on one pot of tea. Toghrul topped it up three times for free and never once gave me the look that means leave. Good wifi, quiet corner, plugs that actually work.Posted on Google
Thomas123August 25, 2026Six of us, six separate cards, done cheerfully in about a minute at the till. No sighing, no lecture about how hard it is. Thank you Toghrul.Posted on Google
ScottsummersAugust 25, 2026Asked for the adana properly spicy and warned Toghrul I actually meant it. He checked with the grill, came back to confirm, and it arrived at exactly the right heat. Nobody has ever taken that request seriously before 🌶️Posted on Google

Kylon CAugust 30, 2026Delicioso! The baklava platter was fantastic. It has a homemade ice cream on it. That’s like a yogurt taste amazing tiramisu was perfect consistency. The buttered croissant was huge. You could taste the butter before it even hit your mouth. It was so delicious sister-in-law had the Turkish coffee and learned how to drink it correctly with a sip of water, a little piece of Turkish delight, and then the coffee she didn’t stop talking about it . I would happily suggest coming over here to have something to eat before going over to the movies .Their menu has a lovely selection of sandwich, wraps, and sandwiches along with a traditional platters with dips. I had a Turkish latte which had a date syrup in it. it was amazing not too sweet that I completely appreciate.Posted on Google

B LAugust 25, 2026Came here with my wife and in-laws yesterday where they held a little birthday gathering for me. Food was top notch, service was excellent, food was a little pricey! But I can’t complain it was a great experience and the employees were all very friendly. The employees sang happy birthday for me with a pistachio cake and a birthday candle lol. I would highly recommend and I would come here again. 👍Posted on Google
