Sometimes I just want a decent stack of pancakes. I ate here once years ago but all I could remember about it was that they had a pretty decent cup of coffee... $17 for pancakes alone is pretty crazy though, so I opted for the mini pancakes just under $8. They were fine, not particularly flavorful and still dry even with syrup. The cafe mocha I tried was decent but for almost $8 bucks? Nah... read more

2nd visit yesterday. Wanted someplace to chat with my friend and have breakfast & lunch options. My friend was seated already after a 15 min wait. I ordered the same thing I ordered last time but as a omelette instead of a scramble and I got home fries instead of sourdough toast. I enjoyed the omelette very much. The toppings inside were tasty. I home fries were basic, the portion seemed a little small. I covered them in ketchup. Their lemonade is homemade fresh. I love it. Small glass. No refills for $4 I do like that's it a local spot and supporting local restaurants which eases the pain of $27, includes tax/tip. But my budget may not be able to support more than once in a while. Simple, neighborly style, casual dining. Servers are very attentive and friendly. read more

The food is delicious. I ordered the 3 egg scramble with bacon, spinach and Monterey. The bacon was crispy and the spinach perfectly cooked all within the scramble. The side of fruit was fresh and tasty. The service is top notch. They serve with a smile and the atmosphere is calm yet cheerful. Recommend this restaurant. I'm from Ohio and will definitely send my friends here. read more

This place had amazing food and the staff were really nice!! Will definitely be going again!

First time here. My tacos were really good, the chorizo has good flavor, the potatoes and bacon are good. Parking on street. Service was good, the chef is really good, I loved how often he changes his gloves so he doesn't cross contaminate the food orders. Very clean! read more

This place is a hidden gem in Granada Hills. The food is always excellent--fresh, flavorful, and consistently well-prepared. Whether you're stopping in for a casual breakfast or a quick lunch, every dish feels thoughtfully made. The service matches the quality of the food: friendly, attentive, and efficient without ever feeling rushed. The staff genuinely cares about your experience. There's also plenty of parking, which makes getting in and out easy--a definite bonus in this part of town. If you haven't been to Main Kitchen Cafe, you're missing out on one of the best local spots around. read more

I hate posting bad reviews- but this was 100% justified. Plus the fact that the owner replies in such a hostile manner to people sharing their honest opinions- would have originally kept me for trying this place. Unfortunately, I would have to rate this place a zero. The prices are outrageously expensive for what you get! We ordered French toast which cost $17.95. It was so dry! We took one bite each and couldn't eat it. It was like dry cardboard! Definitely would not return. Off to Denny's! read more

When I walked in this shot lady's was if your dog barks, we will ask you to leave and I said I just got to LA in a plan today and she told me again if your dog barks we will ask you to leave.i waited almost 20 minutes and the place smells like gasoline everywhere strong smell.i was going to get a OJ when they told me it's going to be 7 something for a small cup from a gallon jug. So I left. The employees are just talking to themselves, not helping the customers. read more

I love having breakfast and brunch at Main Kitchen! It feels very homey here and the staff always treats us like family. The food is always fresh and delicious! I got the 3 mini pancakes and parfait and that kept me very full. I would skip on the breakfast potatoes, i think their french fries are much better. read more

Hello, I came with my family to celebrate my graduation and we were met with a busy rush. We were not given menus or offered any water. Upon sitting down we were left alone for a while, then a waitress came over to ask us "if we were ready to order" ... I chose something small as my first thing here but the rest of my party got meals. We asked for a substitution for pork and still after waiting....we were interrupted without manners "oh did u take a bite of it" we gave you the pork one. We then got the wrong drink and had to wait for the correct one. Horrible service and overpriced food. Food was good but ruins the entire experience. Thanks read more

Two stars only for the server who was very sweet. The kitchen on a slow Friday morning screwed a few too many things up. The waffle will be perfect for anyone who does not yet have, but will want diabetes. The eggs on all dishes were not cooked how we asked for them. The Benedict eggs came out practically hard boiled. The replacement eggs took like 10+ minutes to get and by the time they solved everything was cold. Good god almighty it was rough. read more

Where to begin, I randomly found this place and decided to give it a try on Monday. I'm beyond happy that I did. They were busy when I got there and only had one server, Pete, despite being busy he was friendly, attentive, and knowledgable, he was so good I asked if he owned the place and he said "no I just work here" with a smile. I looked at the yelp to help my decide my meal and got nervous because of a review that made some pretty awful claims about race, I can say as a black man that I was treated very well, as were every customer regardless of race. The food was incredible, sure it's a little pricy but that's everything these days, the quality of the food and the portion size made it a great deal. The restaurant itself is a bit run down but the decor and music are a vibe, you can tell what this restaurant can be if it were in a newer building. Empowering quotes adorn the walls and a great picture of Jordan v. Kobe. When I was paying I saw the celebrity menu that featured Stevie Wonder, next time I visit I'm eating what Stevie eats. I loved it and I will recommend this spot to all my friends. read more

I really enjoyed the food, the camera did not eat first. We came during a busy time so we did have to wait a bit but shout out to the server for handling all those tables! Really cute place as well, I'm definitely coming back but maybe at an earlier time to avoid the wait read more

Only ever had the breakfast here and never had anything I didn't clean the plate. Coffee is great and is refilled regularly love the ambience get a different coffee mug and we love the artwork and always looking for something new. The staff are always friendly and attentive. Definitely our local. Sit at the bar for some added entertainment from the cooks. read more

We have always drove passed this breakfast joint and I regret not stopping earlier cause this place is AMAZING!!! First of all idk about y'all but I love me some yogurt parfaits to start my breaKfast meal (yes I'm a FATTY) and MAIN KITCHEN replaces the milk with the yogurt and OMG,ABSOLUTE ORGASM IN YOUR MOUTH !! i don't know why I've never done this myself, idk if I'm late to this meal but totally exceptional and is going to be hard to go back to yogurt!!! Fruits were very fresh and delicious !! Also had the el dorado Burrito which was not my favorite bfast burrito but it was good , has potatoes chorizo and scrambled eggs!! I asked for a chipotle sauce and the waitress hooked me up with a tapatío creamy sauce (which I would recommend) to ask for your burrito!! We also ordered pancakes cause I'm a pancake enthusiast, and they did not miss with them, Fluffy, great flavor and would highly recommend Staff is very friendly, courteous and attentive!! Our waitress was super nice !!! We didn't have to wait much for the food but we did go on a TUESDAY!!! only bummer is they're a bit pricy, but definitely worth it HIGHLY RECOMMENDED read more

Walked in for Friday afternoon lunch and after standing there for a couple of minutes and four employees making eye contact with us and saying nothing, someone finally asked how they could help and when we asked for a table for two, they said they were closed for a private event. It would be helpful if you close your doors or put up a sign that says you're closed for a private event. It was quite confusing since there were other people inside eating. read more

This place should be ashamed of itself. They served me avocado toast, where the avocado went bad. The chef actively saw that a product went bad and still put it on a toast and it was served to me. This was not a mistake. I used to love this place, but it's really gone downhill. read more

My wife and I brought my mother-in-law here for breakfast today. I came here based on the Yelp reviews, but I will not be coming back. We first ordered double lattes. The lattes were hot, which was nice but they had a slight sweetness which I initially I couldn't determine why. My wife stated it tasted like french vanilla, which did seem correct. I have yet to go to a coffee shop, order a latte and it contain anything other than espresso and milk, unless it is a flavored latte which this wasn't. My wife and mother-in-law split an order of pancakes and fried chicken but substituted waffles for the pancakes. The chicken tenders were basically a pre cooked chicken strip that was warmed. The waffle was a premade Belgian waffle similar or maybe exactly the same as what Costco sells. My wife asked for a side of berries and bananas, which was a small cup which we later realized was $8! Normally a waiter would let a customer know of an extra costs like that when asking for a side that is not listed on the menu. We expected to pay for it, but that was overly expensive. I ordered the Hemingway Benedict with a side of grits. The Benedicts were fine but the grits were bland. I know grits are plain by themselves but normally there is a little effort to add a tiny something on them to dress them up. Lastly, I asked the waitress for the check, she literally slammed it on table, her flat palm making a sound clap as it hit the table, and she walked away not saying a word. My family looked at each other and just had to laugh as we couldn't believe that occurred. The waitress said say thank you when she came back to pick up the credit card and was much gentler when she returned with the receipt for us to sign and state a tip. In the many restaurants I have been to, this may be the 2nd time ever where I leave no tip. I would not recommend coming here. read more

What a rip off now! Ordered pancakes, they were 2 small whole wheat ones( website showed three- hostess said afterward that they weren't whole wheat) but they were dense and brown, certainly not good like most pancakes should be. The berries on top were the only good thing. For over $20 bucks with tax, I was hungry afterward and spat out last bit as just really like cardboard. Will def not be back and go to south valley for decent food. This place used to be waay better! People frequenting here but have really sub par standards! Extremely disappointing. There's a reason the north valley isn't a destination for good food! read more

I came here to finally grab breakfast at this place because I seen it but never had the chance until this past Sunday. I was worried I wouldn't find parking but since I came in the early morning, I got a parking spot in the small plaza it's in. My wife decided to join me and the moment we walked inside a worker told me no outside drink. I was carrying a coconut water can so I just went to put it back in the car since it wasn't that big of a deal but most places I go to doesn't mind. We got seated inside where the dining room was and we thought it was a nice place. It's not that big so you're closer to other customer. I started off with their French Toast berries and banana and my wife went with their chicken chilaquiles. My wife asked what sauce does the chilaquiles uses and our waitress said they use both red and green sauce. The food came out quick and we started eating it. I thought the French toast was okay but I don't think it was worth the price they were charging for it. My wife said she really like the chilaquiles more than the other place I took her yesterday. We had a good time dining here but I wouldn't say I would come back here versus another place. read more

I didn't realize that it has been over 7 years since the last time we ate at Main Kitchen Cafe. The menu has changed considerably since our last visit. The inside is different also. I wonder if they are under new management... 3/5 - Steak and Eggs: They now use ribeye (which I prefer over the previous strip steak). It's a little thin, but it's steak and eggs down the street from where I live... 2/5 - Oatmeal with Berries 2/5 - Grits: a little watery 2/5 - Southern Biscuit Slider: Toasted biscuits with egg, fried chicken and maple gravy. The food came out to 2.25 stars but I'm bumping up to 3 for the good service and comfortable environment. I love the decorations and enjoyed the music. It is worth a return to try other dishes or just to get an easy steak and eggs breakfast. read more

Great small cafe atmosphere! Its quaint and rustic vibe with a variety of decor. The server was attentive, friendly and constantly stopped by to check on us. Our drinks were in the table in a few minutes. Coffee was freshly made and delicious. Soft drink was from a chilled can. The food was true to menu with reasonable prices. The pictures are not deceiving. The taste and flavor is captured in each dish. Authentic and bomb! Chilaquiles with added chorizo hit the spot. Churro French Toast had the perfect sweetness with chocolate syrup and served with fresh fruit. Eggs benedict with ham was yummy. Can't wait to taste the freshly baked banana bread. Get there!!! read more

Everything was delicious! Definitely 5 stars for everything. If you're in the area, check this place out!! read more

I went with my friend to her doctor's appointment in Granada Hills. After the appointment we decided to grab a late breakfast. Looked up a few places and decided on this place, reviews were very good. Happy to say, they live up to those reviews!! The young lady who seated us had a lovely persona. She welcomed us with a smile and promptly seated us. We engaged in light conversation about the restaurant. She was very knowledgeable and seemed to sincerely enjoy her job. We decided to just share the steak and egg combo, we asked our server if that would be okay, she said yes. They do have Tiramisu French Toast which looked very delicious and recommended by our server. I highly recommend this place for breakfast or lunch. Parking, however, can be a little tricky but if you can find a spot it's worth it. read more

I have nothing bad to say about this place. Love the mismatched dishes and mugs they use. It gives the place a homey feel. Decor is eclectic. Staff is very friendly and food is exceptional! They take pride in presentation! Ingredients are fresh. I don't think you can ever have a bad meal here. Pride in their food and service is definitely evident. Live music on Saturdays. A gentleman who plays the guitar. A bit too loud for me, but that's just me. He's talented and plays a lot of classic songs. Such a nice touch. Keep up the great work! read more
