I had no expectations when I went here last weekend. I thought it was just another brunch place in LA. Boy, was I wrong! The food was soooo good. I went with my friends for a bridesmaids appreciation. Everyone loved their food! The steak was smoky and immaculate. The pastrami sandwich was crispy and good. The avocado salad was crunchy with the hazelnuts and the dressing tasted absolutely delicious. However, the most delicious of them all was the Shakshuka. Holy! It was mindblowingly good. Additionally, the restaurant itself was very cute and well decorated. The server, Sophia, was extremely thoughtful and nice. Honestly, the main reason I'm writing this review is because Sophia was such an amazing server! Overall, I'd love to come back here sometime soon. read more

In the mood of exploring more new place, there Mood was, popping on my Yelp account just at the right time. Knowing everyone else in town might think about the same thing, I quickly made my reservation for Saturday brunch, to find out the time my friends and I arrived, apparently our Yelp reservation didn't go through for some reason. Fortunately the lovely attendants were so accommodating that they tried their best finding us first available seats amidst the super busy venue. Took 15 minutes-ish wait under unfriendly sunny LA, but we ended up at perfect seats. The venue's design and vibe were such entertainment, blending a mixture of greenery touch with gorgeous pastel colors. We started with their Crab Arancini, which I earlier thought bit expensive for the portion, till the generous crab filling got revealed. Not overly greasy and so flavorful especially served with the luscious sauce, it came as great opening to our brunch. Their 'Hash Brown Your Way', featuring hash brown patties with poached eggs and our choice of extra protein for which we opted for smoked salmon. The dish was kinda bringing together different elements of breakfast favorites as it was also complemented by smashed avo and refreshing salad. The beet hummus sauce made Mood's version being peculiar and stood out. Although overall it's more like rosti than common hash brown for me, I love it! Another egg-based menu we went for was their Shakshuka, which surprisingly turned to be the highlight of the table. We all loved how the tomatoes weren't overpowering the overall dish and the garlic touch in the sauce made it so delicate. Yolks were flawlessly runny and the dish was just simply amazing to enjoy with the sourdough slices on the side. I was proven wrong being skeptical about Mood in the beginning, thinking that most people were just curious about the place being new and cutesy, as the dishes turned out beyond expectations! read more

May have discovered a new go-to brunch spot. First time going to Mood. It was well worth the trip. We ordered for two. For drinks, we got the Dragon Berry Mint Matcha and Arnold Palmer, both refreshing. For the mains, we had the Pastrami Sandwich and Shakshuka, which were absolutely delicious. We also shared the truffle fries on the side. Everything complemented each other really well, highly recommend this selection. The host and servers were accommodating. I made a reservation through Yelp but was running late. We called ahead to give them a heads-up, and they assured us it was fine. Upon arrival, we were seated right away. Considering this was during the brunch rush, we really appreciated the smooth experience and understanding. Seating is mostly outdoors and shaded, with a nice setup. I'd definitely return to try more on the menu. The only downside was parking. Your options are either street parking or valet. If driving, give yourself ample time to find a spot. read more

A reminder not to fall for "trendy" places. The food was very mid. I got the Eggs Benedict and couldn't even finish my plate. The drinks were okay, but the seating was so cramped that we were basically sharing a table with the parties on both sides of us. Everyone looked uncomfortable. Definitely not worth the hype. read more

I'm glad I gave this place a try. I went on a solo date and let me start off by saying all staff was very friendly/sweet, the food was good and healthy! This place is a vibe, :) cute for dates ;) read more

Mood - Eggs Benedict w/ bacon 9/10 and dragonfruit matcha 8/10. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Stopped in for a super late brunch on a weekday. I really do appreciate them accommodating our party of 2 even 30 minutes before closing. The aesthetic was cute -- which is why I went -- but I would honestly pass on the food. I ordered the eggs benedict with steak (2/10) and my boyfriend got the American breakfast (4/10). We weren't impressed by the food as my entire dish lacked any seasoning or flavor. My boyfriend's was lack-lustre as well. The pancakes were really hard and dry. The Dragon Matcha was good though, a 7/10 I probably should have ordered the Shakshuka but I'm not sure if I'll return. read more

Solid local brunch place with a Mediterranean/eastern European slant to several dishes. Solid, but not stunning food overall. Came here for brunch with the family. My wife got the Benedict, while I got the breakfast burger and the kids got the mini pancakes. The Benedict was good, but a little odd that you had to add protein to it. The breakfast burger was yummy, but a bit heavy on the avocado mash, which sort of made the whole thing come apart. The kids liked their pancakes, but the seemed like they would have been even better for adults where you wouldn't have had all the yummy sauces on the side. The standout was the last-minute add of the syrniki which was like small sour cream/cheese pancakes over a mango custard. They were good without being too sweet and had a nice tartness. Service was friendly and fast. We were literally the first people in the door when they opened at 8a and they were still friendly about it. We got to sit outside under a heater and enjoy the nice (if slightly brisk) California morning. read more

I have been curious about this place for quite some time. Finally was able to come for Sunday brunch. This place is perfect for a non boozy lazy day Sunday with the girls. Love how the menu spans many cuisines. Bright and colorful and tasty. My favorite thing was the Syrniki. We would have gotten a second order but had to get our meals instead. So definitely get the mini Ukraine treats. read more

First impressions, the interior design is nice and good aesthetics, when the food first came out, the presentation was visually appealing. However, the food was very underwhelming and flavorless, the quality of the food was not deserving of the price. The entrees that came with bread had only came with one slice of bread and was super stale and hard to chew. The service was okay and the bathroom was nice. Would not come again. read more

First off the spot was cute and clean! Definitely very aesthetically pleasing. However, the food was so pricey like the price of a dinner but the food was just eh mediocre. The servers and waiters were nice and kind and sat us down right away. However, you can't sit upstairs on the roof until noon. We were there for breakfast and there was a lot of people sitting next to us. read more

Worst service ever. Never left a review before but our waiter sat us down at a table gave us the menus then 15 min later (after not offering us water or anything) forced us to change table not once but twice after being sat for over 20 min! For no reason. We spent more time playing musical chairs then being served. We ended up leaving after our miserable experience. We didn't even try the food after all of that but it look really mediocre. Don't go there unless you're not hungry. read more

Place looked great, very nice. Service was good, as expected. And the presentation of our meals was excellent, looked very pretty!!! I had high expectations for the taste too, yet was extremely disappointed with the flavors. I ordered the Steak with Eggs Plate, and it was plain/unsalted. No flavor, and it was cold!! I had to add salt to both my eggs and the steak to make it decent. The only food I kept going back to was the beet hummus, that was pretty tasty. I liked the taste of the dragon berry matcha, but the matcha latte was unsweetened, which is not my cup of tea, but I know some like it like that sooo whatever floats your boat. read more

I ordered the avocado toast with smoked salmon and cream cheese. There were several options aside from cream cheese, like hummus. I think they gave me a generous amount of avocado and a sufficient amount of smoked salmon. I wouldn't want more smoked salmon than what was provided. I also opted for the mood latte. The dragon berry foam added a fruity touch to the usual latte. I'm going to assume it's made from... dragon fruit? I also ordered the raspberry cheesecake which tasted like it has very fresh cheese. Overall, I thought the food was good and the outdoor seating was a more unique experience in comparison to other cafes. read more

Such a cute vibe and friendly service. They are still getting situated so "Pardon the GreyPoupon"(nervous service). This is a fusion place as she told me between American and Ukrainians. I couldn't find Ukrainian in the food but there is definitely a vibe of fusion here. Started with the orange espresso...yes a must have. It has a distinct orange flavor mixed with strong espresso. I wish the cup was bigger! It was gone with 4 slurps. Yeah it was a Rough night! The early morning jolt needed to start of right! Croquet madame was spot on with modification in egg style. Yea it's eggs on top that looks like butter. Presentation is amazing. The quinoa bowl was delicious and laden with greens. Something about the beet hummus!! Omg yum!! Don't forget to share the hard say Syrnyky (sounds like sneaky) custard. For sure the sneaky tasteful Syrnyky really messed up my diet, but it was a good type of sneaky. It was not too sweet not to sour and had it like a slightly firm cheese like texture in the middle. A definite must try. Mood got me up and going to the Moooooood of the day! How many O in this mood? It doesn't matter because it's an overall A+ for me. Seeeeeee you soooooon again! Oh, and by the way, if you need to use the restroom, it has a very interesting stall door. Make sure to lock the door properly or we will see you in the loo! The amenities in the restroom were simply divine! They definitely thought about everything! read more

5/5 -- Brunch Bliss at Mood LA! Mood LA isn't just a restaurant -- it's a brunch fantasy. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with lush greenery, soft lighting, and a vibe that feels straight out of a Netflix rom-com. It's giving main character energy, and I was so here for it. I started with the Meze Mood Set (the dips, the bread -- a literal dream), followed by the Eggs Benefit which had me smiling with every bite. But the real showstopper? The Syrniki with mango custard. Ugh. I'm in love. ‍ Every dish was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully plated -- perfect for pics and your palate. The service was warm, the ambiance effortlessly elegant, and honestly, it was one of the best brunch experiences I've had in LA. Whether you're out with friends or treating yourself to a solo date, run to Mood. It's a full-on vibe. Mood LA Brunch goals. Forever mood. read more

Such a cute spot for breakfast, I loved everything about it, the food, the vibe, and the service. The syrniki were so good, soft, delicate, and not overly sweet, you can tell they're homemade. Everything else we tried was just as delicious and looked really pretty, and the tea came in the cutest little teapot and cups. The staff were honestly so sweet and attentive, which made the whole experience feel extra special. read more

This place has nice breakfast and light lunch options, but not many heavier dishes like steaks. The food isn't the most delicious, but they present everything very nicely. I liked the pancake with cheese and mango sauce that was a standout. Service was okay. Weekends get really full, so I definitely recommend making a reservation. read more

The restaurant itself is a vibe. Low key, outside eating area. But if you want to be where the chandelier is, they advised you have to make a reservation. The service... was so slow. There was another party who had asked for their bill a few times before it came. We ourselves had to ask several times for ice water and cups of ice and it pretty much came towards the end of the meal. We asked for hot sauce and was advised there some sort of kimchi hotsauce. We obliged and thought nothing of it. When the bill came, surprise, there's a $2 charge for the hot sauce. We also got the truffle fries and was asked what sauce, and we said to surprise us. But another $2 addition to the bill. It's okay if you're gonna upcharge if you're upfront with it. But finding surprises on the bill is not so pleasant. The food was okay. I ordered the Greek Style Salad. When I asked the staff to describe it, they advised it was on a bed of greens. But there was no bed of greens. (I asked for the tomatoes on the side and gave that to the other people in my party so it's not pictured in the salad.) I wish the menu gave a description of what the foods are. We were craving for some Mediterranean foods, but left a bit disappointed. The best was the sourdough bread tbh. And if you order the Sprite, it's the one in the long green bottle, and not from a fountain or can. Just FYI. The place did advise they were new and just opened about a month. read more

We tried a Tuna salad and a mini pancake for the baby . The salad was incredibly fresh and flavorful -- one of the best I've had. The stuff was so helpful with the menu and recommendations. Even took some extra food to go . I think it's my Top 1 for brunch in West LA . read more

Servers and hostess were excellent. Came with another couple. Everyone loved their food. The seating is interesting. There is a street level, which was loud with music, and a covered rooftop (where we sat) which had a perfect noise level. The only issue is if you have any mobility problems, there is no elevator. Lots of stairs to climb. And the bathrooms are on the ground level. read more

I gave it a 4 star due to the presentation of my plate and service. I ordered a steak sandwich. The steak was cooked well nice and tender, but it had way too much arugula leaves. The service was ok, I felt the waiter should have checked on us more, we had to keep calling the waitress a bit more. The ambiance was nice. But I probably would be returning, it's a bit over priced. read more

Absolutely love Mood. It's an amazing spot in LA for breakfast, but honestly great for any meal. The European vibe is charming and , and the syrniki are out of this world -- so delicious that I'm still thinking about them.

We had a 12:45 pm Sunday reservation, there was a line out the establishment when i arrived. I was able to walk around and check in. However, there were three other groups with the same reservation time waiting alongside of me. We weren't seated until 10 min after the reservation as they didn't have a table available. We ended up seated a two seater corner table tucked against two walls on the rooftop but furtherest from the view. So not the most appealing view for birthday brunch. The birthday girl had the hash brown and liked it. It's quite filling. She could only eat one. Same for the guy next to us, who'd ordered it as well and said the same. He could only manage one. It came with eggs & a side of greens. I had the steak and eggs, both were cooked perfectly to the requested temperature. It also came with seasoned potatoes and a lightly dressed side of greens. Good as well. We also got the Syrniki with mango custard to share. The texture is more similar to a baked dough or basque cheesecake because of the cottage cheese consistency. It is not pillowy soft like a pancake which was what we expected. If envisioning that texture, it's not that. There is a chew. We ate one mini syrinki between the two of us, still paid for it. Everything was plated fine. Drinks were good. Server was busy, but attentivish. Water is left on the table, so guests may refill as you need. read more

Another five-star restaurant review! I highly recommend their matcha tea (the one with dragon fruit is great) and their ricotta cheese pancakes (not always on the menu). The potato pancakes and syrniki are also excellent -- and don't miss the gazpacho soup. Enjoy! It's a bit overpriced, but I think it's worth it. read more
