from Google"Helvacı Ali Turkish Dessert & Café is a true taste of Türkiye right here in town! The desserts are authentic, fresh, and beautifully presented — especially their famous tahini halva. Each bite is rich, perfectly balanced, and made with real care. The Turkish tea and coffee are just as they should be — strong, flavorful, and served with a smile. The café has a cozy and elegant atmosphere, perfect for relaxing with friends or family. The staff are always welcoming and take the time to explain the desserts if you’re new to Turkish sweets. Whether you’re craving something traditional or just want to enjoy a peaceful moment with a cup of tea, Helvacı Ali is an amazing spot. It truly feels like a little piece of Istanbul — sweet, warm, and unforgettable."
"Delicious helva and amazing service! Can helped us pick the best ones for our taste. He is super kind, friendly and represents Turkish culture very well. We will definitely be back."
"Beautiful ambiance with delicious semolina halva and Turkish icecream combo. It was our 1st time trying Turkish semolina halva, as pakistani we make halwa a bit differently. We got pistachio halva with vanilla Turkish icecream, halva was grainy, sticky and not too sweet. Coffee was just okay. I prefer baklava home coffee then theirs. Turkish tea good, we also got a drink, it was okay. Overall a good spot to enjoy desserts and drinks."
"New, the most beautiful cafe, the interior reminds me of a spaceship from the inside, it's impressive, it's very pleasant to spend time over a cup of coffee. Polite service, we were kindly offered to try different types of halva. We took a cheesecake with pistachio halva and lychee coconut cake. We also took Turkish coffee. Everything is very tasty, I liked everything. The only thing I thought was that there was not a large selection of desserts, maybe we were late in the evening before closing and everything was over. I recommend visiting this a wonderful cafe"
"I absolutely loved it! Everything was wonderful the prices were so affordable, and the girl working there was incredibly sweet and kind. She made the experience extra special, and that’s why I really wanted to leave this review for her too."
