Had a lovely weekend brunch date here! The dining area is modern and refreshingly green. Almost feels like a different world from the surrounding area, in a good way! Our service was prompt and friendly. Both our drinks were very good; I had the red velvet, which offers a fresh raspberry flavor and goes down as easily as fruit juice! They even include a prosecco shot on the side. Drink it on its own or mix it in for a nice sparkling touch :) My steak and eggs were also well-prepared and hit the spot. Will definitely swing by again if I'm looking for brunch in the area!

Love the atmosphere here and it's always packed! The food is a hit or miss though. I would recommend getting a couple plates and sharing all of them. Mango dragonade- it was yummy!! Mango, dragonfruit and a splash of orange juice Orange juice - freshly squeezed, classic Baba ganoush- it was sooooo good: kind of on the sweeter side. Wish they gave more bread with this though. Syrini with mango custard- I was trying to decide between this or the crepes with ricotta and passion fruit custard. It was really good for the first couple bites and I got tired of it and wanted to eat something else. Def better to share this. Tuna salad sandwich - so good! It wasn't too cold and I say that because typically I don't like salad sandwiches because they're cold. My friends really enjoyed the Humshaka here so I'll try that next time.

I enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance. I just wished they allowed us to be in the second floor, they said it wasn't available but I still saw people there and lots of empty tables

My friend recommended we check it out as it was on our way to The Grove. The aesthetics were cool. After a 30min wait the staff was able to get us in with no reservation. We didn't expect this as there was a line going out the door and it was a hour and a half before closing time. Hats off to the staff as they were clearly juggling a lot yet remained friendly and attentive throughout the whole experience. Dishes were decently priced but taste wise they didn't really stand out. Cappuccino on the other hand was great.

I came across Mood on Third after seeing a ton of great reviews, and I totally get why people talk about it. The vibe is real. It feels lively, multicultural, and honestly kind of fun just sitting there and hearing different languages all around you. It makes the whole experience feel a little more elevated and interesting, like you're part of something happening. We didn't have reservations and still got seated right away, which was a huge plus, but MAKE RESERVATIONS because that's literally the first thing they ask and it just makes everything smoother. Service is where this place really shines. I'm not exaggerating when I say it felt like there were multiple people taking care of our table at all times. The staff is incredibly attentive, constantly checking in, asking what you need next, making sure everything is moving. The food came out fast too, which I appreciated. You can tell they're really on top of their operation, and the energy from the team is genuinely warm and welcoming. Now, the reason I can't give it a full five stars is the seating situation. It's tight. Like, really tight. You are basically side by side with strangers, close enough to hear their entire conversation while they hear yours. You can actually feel how slightly uncomfortable people are when they first sit down, including us. I get that they're trying to maximize space, but it definitely takes away from the overall comfort. As for the food, it was good, just not something I'd personally come back for. It didn't wow me flavor-wise, even though everything looked great and came out quickly. Also, I always find it a little funny when they immediately ask "sparkling or tap," because you already know they're trying to nudge that bill up. Not a dealbreaker, just something I notice every time. Overall, I'd give it about a 4.5. It's absolutely worth coming at least once for the vibe and the service alone, but I do think the food could use a little more flavor to match everything else they're doing right.

Crepes with ricotta cheese and passion fruit curd

The place was great. It looks modern and fresh, I really like the stylish design. We came around 11 am on Sunday and it was pretty busy, so I'd recommend booking a table in advance. We didn't wait long though, just like 5 minutes. Service was quick, everyone was super nice, and everything looked clean. Food was really good. I got the ricotta crepes with passion fruit curd. It was a perfect mix of sweetness. Crepes were fresh and my cappuccino was also really good. We tried baba ganoush too, it was interesting and nice to try. My boyfriend got the hash brown plate and added 2 eggs and bacon. He really liked everything. We would definitely come back again, just next time with a reservation.

My friend and I went for brunch on Monday morning. There was plenty of street parking (pay by text) on 3rd street. It was a great space, open, cute/trendy, and plenty of seats. The host asked if we had a reservation but luckily it wasn't super busy and they were able to seat us. Server was nice and friendly. We wanted to share the pancakes or waffles but the server recommended the passionfruit crepes, which were delicious. The ricotta was very light and sweet and the heavy passionfruit sauce complemented it perfectly. We ordered the following: - Mooood latte- there was a dragon berry cold foam on this iced latte. It was very good. - Mimosas - Eggs Benedict- the eggs on this benedict was cooked perfectly. I really enjoyed this dish and it was also a very big portion. They gave me the option of putting a protein on it but I just had it as it was. - Tartufo Scramble Sandwich- open sandwich with mushrooms and eggs with a perfect balance of truffle. I enjoyed this dish too. With 2 mimosas, crepes and everything above, came out to about $100. I would definitely return as I would like to try the other items. Both my friend and I enjoyed our brunch at mood.

Sometimes, you walk into a place and roll your eyes and say: "That's so LA" Sometimes you walk into a place with a smile as you look at the food and go:"That's so LA!" It really shouldn't take you long to figure out which I did when I ate here. This is exactly the kind of food you SHOULD find in Beverly Hills, and all credit due there is quite a lot of joy to be had when you eat here for breakfast. Our server was patient while we very eagerly parked to sample their offerings, and I really have to talk about the way it felt like the way our food plated, it was if we plucked it straight from a gourmet cooking show. And the way everything tasted fresh was enough to make my taste buds beg for more, I'm very sure you'll be in a good mood after stopping by. While the prices initially made me raise my eyebrows, with the quality I'm getting, I completely understand the LA experience now. Cheers!

Really enjoyed our visit to Mood. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. Great atmosphere, great service, and great food -- can't ask for much more. Will definitely be back!

Dragon friut cream latte was good. Mango puree and syrinki is interesting. It's quite good for brunch. But I think the looks are better than the taste. The ambience is nice and chill. Similar vibes as great white.

Shirra P.

I was greeted by two very nice girls when I arrived. Just know that you need a reservation on Sundays--the place is packed and definitely more of a scene than I expected, which honestly makes me hesitant to come back. Parking is another challenge. There's no valet and it's very difficult to find parking, so plan extra time if you decide to go. One thing they mention quickly that you should really pay attention to: they limit your table to an hour and a half. I personally think that's a pretty frustrating policy. Going out to eat is expensive these days, so it's worth choosing places where you can relax and enjoy your time. That said, the food was spot on--fresh and very good. It's a family-owned restaurant run by a Ukrainian family, which is something I do appreciate and think is worth supporting. So now you know reader: great food and fresh ingredients, but tough parking and a strict 1 1/2-hour time limit. Up to you whether it's worth it.

MOOD was definitely a VIBE! I came here for brunch with some girlfriends while traveling out of town. We came on a Monday without reservations and were seated within 10 minutes. We ordered the Shakshuka ($19), Steak & Eggs ($28), and the Overnight Oats ($16). I always have to order an alcoholic beverage while I'm out at brunch, so I also ordered the Hugo Lavender ($14) - Prosecco, Elderflower, Lavender, Lime. Everything was beautifully presented and colorful. I had to snap some pictures/videos before everyone dug in. The table fell quiet quickly after we tasted the food because everything was delicious. I would definitely love to come back during better weather since we happened to be visiting during a rainstorm.

We came on a Saturday afternoon and do be warned as they seat you if you made a reservation and they work like clockwork. Luckily there was an opening and they had us seated fairly quickly. Interior was very well decorated, including the bathroom, and had even two floors with shade on the top floor ! We ordered the Red Velvet, Mood Latte, Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon, and the steak and eggs. The red velvet was really delicious and tasted like a lemonade ! They set the alcohol aside if you wanted as a shot or with the juice. The mood latte was your typical latte but the cream was a great addition; I would've just liked more espresso in it. The eggs Benedict was a pleasantly huge portion and I definitely recommend adding a protein for additional flavor! Would love to try again when I visit LA!

The ambiance here is lovely, and the brunch menu is quite appealing. We really enjoyed the presentation of the dishes--the poached eggs were rich and creamy, the syrniki were delicate and well-prepared, and the fruit tea was refreshing and beautifully served. However, I have to mention that we found a hair in one of the plates, which was disappointing. These things happen, but it did take away from an otherwise pleasant experience. The staff was friendly, and I believe the place has a lot of potential, especially if more attention is paid to kitchen hygiene. I'm giving 3 stars this time, but I hope to return again and have a better experience--because the food itself was really enjoyable. read more

Both floors of the place are well decorated and so gorgeous I especially loved the round pink table we were sat at. Parking wasn't too bad as we found some right outside the entrance. The food is SO delicious I got the steak and eggs and it's honestly the best brunch I've ever had, the eggs benedict is super delicious as well. Side note, the bathrooms are super nice and I love that they have lotion in them as well since my hands get pretty dry lol. read more

We visited Mood today having originally planned to visit Joan's on 3rd. Joan's is an established "go to" 3rd Street stalwart. But I must say Mood is going to prove to be a wonderful addition ,with gracious service, clean food and a lovely architectural restaurant. I might add the bathrooms were sanitary clean. Mood has a patio aura seating, open only 8-3 pm but will soon adjust hours .I assume it has something to do with a liquor license but may be wrong. Try this well run new addition on 3rd. Steps from Toast which I've always thought needed competition.... You will enjoy ! . read more

There was a wait for 2 hours right when we got there, we went next door to Normanidie Cafe to wait. When we were walking back we saw a couple just got out of their car and go to the front desk we were behind them and they spoke a foreign language and just walk right in after I waited 2 hours. After this BS we were seated I ordered the American plate over easy and when it came, the eggs came over done. I asked for over easy eggs and they looked at me like I was insane. By the time my over easy eggs came I was finished with my bacon and pancakes! Frustrated and annoyed they kept asking if I wanted anything else after I made a scene about the eggs. I waited 2 hours to get to a brunch that can't even get the eggs right. The easiest thing to make as a cook as a restaurant. This restaurant is all hype food was bland service felt rushed never coming again. read more

Don't be fooled. The food looks good in pictures, but tastes terrible. Depending on the dish, flavors are either non-existent or wildly out of place. Here's a quick tip for the kitchen staff: doon't cut onions and use the knife to cut neutral flavored things like avocados. Other random things: Their cream cheese is like silicone caulk, and they seemingly put it on everything on the breakfast menu, including the eggs benedict. On the plus side, you can rest easy knowing your poached eggs are secured with a waterproof seal to the hamburger bun below. read more

Decided to come here to meet up my girlfriends for a catch-up brunch. The place itself is super cute. The interior decor is beautiful and vibrant. Lots of pastel colors and pink - even the restroom is a site to see. We ordered several items on the menu to share. Dragonberry Mint Matcha (9/10) We all enjoyed this drink. My friend who didn't want too much caffeine preferred this option. We were scared about the mint overpowering the drink, but it was nice and subtle. Mood Latte (7/10) The coffee was more subtle in this drink. I think the milk overpowered it. Meze Mood Set (10/10) Must order! The baba ghanoush had a great taste! It was topped with pistachios. The falafel wasn't dry, it was lovely! The beetroot hummus and hummus were perfect. The edamame paired well with the beetroot. Steak & Eggs - (10/10) The skirt steak wasn't overcooked. The eggs were cooked wonderfully with gorgeous orange-yellow yolks. Loved both sauces that came with the steak. The potato confit was my fave! Loved how crispy they were! Hamshuka (9/10) Wanted to try this, since some of us have had Shakshuka before. The harissa and cilantro really gave it a wonderful flavor. Green Salad with Beet Hummus (10/10) Dressing is light in a good way. The beetroot hummus ties everything together. Every topping added complemented all the flavors really well. Overall, we were pleasantly surprised with how delicious everything was. Our service was great from Sofia and Kateryna. They were wonderful. Still dreaming about the mood set and potatoes! We snagged free 2 hour parking in the neighborhood, then just walked on over. Check this place out. Definitely would recommend to family and friends! read more

Best potatoes ! Eggs Benedict have avocado, eggs and hollandaise? Or more like a hollandaise cream. It's not hot. Brioche was good. Eggs were perfect. I was so puzzled by the temp of the sauce.

I went to Mood this afternoon for a New Year's brunch with my girlfriend and had a very unpleasant experience that completely ruined what should've been a nice lunch. We ordered a lot of food, and since the table next to us was empty (along with several other nearby tables that remained empty for most of our visit), we pulled the adjacent table slightly closer to accommodate the dishes. A staff member wearing a yellow T-shirt approached us in a very cold, interrogative manner and asked is it just you two? not friendly at all, just rude. After we explained that we ordered a lot of food, he proceeded to move my girlfriend's phone off the table and yank the table away from us without saying a word. No explanation, no "sorry," no attempt at polite communication. It was incredibly disrespectful and uncalled for. When we asked to speak with a manager, we were told one would be brought over, but no one ever came. Later when we asked again while requesting the check, we were told there was no manager on site, which felt very strange and unprofessional. From the aggressive tone, to touching personal belongings, to the lack of accountability, the customer service was unacceptable. This was not a welcoming or respectful environment, especially for a New Year's lunch. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this place based on this experience. read more

Not a great experience! We made a reservation for 2:30 pm and when we got there we were notified that the kitchen closes at 3:00 pm. Totally fine, we order drinks (a bottle of prosecco & 2 glasses) right away along with food. The food started arriving before our bottle and glasses, we had to ask about it and they seemed flustered. This was a party of 6 and for some reason 3 people were taking care of the table. Finally got our drinks and food and when the last plate was placed not only did the open roof and blinds to the patio close, the music stopped and we were immediately asked if this was going to be cash or card. Before I even took a bite. They told us management had to leave and we were not allowed to order any other drinks but also we had to close out immediately. So awkward, so rude, one nice waitress (I wish I could remember her name) but I will never go back. The food was good but not worth the experience. Get it together! read more

10/10 service, food, and ambiance. Our server Sophia was very nice and accommodated us with everything we needed. This was my first time here and the food did not disappoint. I got the overnight oats with mango custard which was very yummy and Syrniki pancakes which are actually pancakes made of cottage cheese that are delicious! Everything was plated beautifully. Wait time was also amazing we barely waited any time to be served and get our orders taken. Will definitely come back to try more on the menu as i came here for breakfast but they do offer many different things. Overall this place was great. read more

Nice place overall. I like the location and the way they decorated it. I loved syrniki and mango custard makes it even better!! Highly recommend! My friend ordered croque madame and she said she liked it. Mood latte was ok, I'd say overpriced as I could barely taste the dragon fruit. I think people order it just to take pretty pics lol. The service was decent even though they were busy. P.S. Some chill background music is good but I'd avoid playing generic covers of famous songs. Sounds cheesy. read more

Wonderful little spot. Incredible food and incredible service. FYI, they serve the eggs lightly cooked and very runny so if you don't like eggs this style, I suggest you request them to be cooked medium. Service was great.

The food was really good honestly and the dragonade drinks have to be my favorite thing here. Personally, I didn't like how small the dining area is, it is outside but the person next to me was practically 5inches away & it was difficult getting into my seat without having my butt in their face for the booths that are two people. Service was nothing special, order taken & given, they come back for the bill that's it. They don't even check once if everything is okay. read more

One of my favorite brunch spots. It's a Ukranian eatery that is open for brunch during daytime transitioning to dinner items later in day. They do "simple" very well. Shakshuka is my go-to brunch dish, and theirs does not disappoint. A key, however, is the side of hash browns alongside the tomato based shakshuka. Match made in heaven. Their hash browns appear casserole-esq but are almost just like thick hash brown pucks. Delicious. Also can't go wrong with their avocado toast. Ukranian desserts also superb. Ambiance is great, fair amount of outdoor seating with heat lamps if diners prefer above the tables. Service quick and friendly. read more

We were quickly attended to by their kind staff and waiter who moved efficiently, and made great conversation. I enjoyed how knowledgeable our waiter was with both the dinner and cocktail menu!

It's clear that their kitchen and staff valued attention to detail, and was more than considerate of a luxe dining experience. I loved my farmers market margarita, and seed smoke mezcal cocktail, they were not overly boozy, but had been made with an even blend of flavor and dressed with complimentary ingredients. As we were all men, it was pretty stereotypical that we ordered almost exclusively protein dishes lol. Each meat on the table was tender, juicy, and very savory. My favorites included their goat curry, and pork belly boat noodles. The plates were all Exciting, innovative, and an overall unique menu.

Zinc Café & Bar

I want to update my review about the location of Zinc that I wrote over a decade ago. Since my…read moreinitial review, I've continued to come to this restaurant. It remains a unique addition to the neighborhood, as well as a good place to grab some interesting dishes. Since the opening of this particular business, the Zinc chain has opened in a few other locations. Those locations are much newer in not only their establishment but their design. This is not to say that this is still not an interesting, well-designed business, but, with time, it has become a little bit rundown. I hate to say it, but that is the truth. This location could really use an update and perhaps a deep cleaning. I was, in fact, kind of surprised at the condition of this business, for example, on the way towards their restrooms. From my opinion, it needs an clean up and an update. Also, the litter that surrounded some of the outdoor tables where I was sitting at my most recent visit was very surprising. This is just something to keep in mind if you're coming here for your first visit. In terms of what they offer for food, though it has evolved a bit over the years, they still have a great, heath-based menu, with some very interesting choices. For all of you vegetarians and vegans out there, you will, for sure, be able to find some tasty food to eat. Once upon a time, this restaurant was impacted with tons and tons of people. It was constantly full with people either going to the bakery and/or sitting down for table service. Shortly past their opening each day, there would be a line of people waiting for service. This seems to have changed, however. Meaning, if you're looking for an interesting place to eat, with some good dishes, at the far Southeast side of DTLA, near the lofts district, and you want a place without a long wait to get a table and/or your food, this may still be your place to go.

It's a small self served restaurant with a limited menu that changes, since not everything we saw on yelp was available. When we visited the options were crispy chicken/hot link sliders, different variations of tots and beignets. We went with the crispy chicken sliders and loaded Cajun tots and they were both very flavourful and delicious. The chicken was well seasoned and crispy paired with tangy pickled vegetables and a tasty pretzel bun. The combination of flavours packed a punch but we did wish for a thicker slice of chicken. The tater tots were very well seasoned too and the sauces were yummy, something acidic would be a nice addition to cut through the fatty goodness. When we asked for utensils they didn't have any forks so they gave us one spoon and one knife. We made it work. Definitely want to come back to try other things on their menu whenever they rotate it.

Sampa is located in the Arts District near the intersection of S Hewitt St and E 5th right next to Urth Cafe. There's a parking lot directly across the street from the restaurant but you can also park around the corner by Arts District Park for $5. If it's your first time visiting Sampa, you have to be open minded towards the concept itself. Yes, the dishes here are smaller in portion and costs more than your typical fast casual spot. All the servers here are attentive and offer to help with what to order if you're unsure. For dinner, the Crispy Pasta is their take on crispy pata but served with spinach tagliatelle. The crab fat fried rice is a no brainer and depending on the night you come, I highly recommend the Sinigang xiaolongbao special. You don't have to be Filipino to appreciate what Sampa is doing for the culture, just come by and see for yourself.

WORDS TO DESCRIBE SAMPA: Elevated dining, speakeasy vibes, quality food and service PARKING: Parking can be difficult since it is close to the Arts District, you may want to park in the Public Parking Lot areas FOOD: Lechon fried rice: This dish was exquisite! I loved all of the colors in the rice, which include the fried pork belly, the golden egg yolks, and the pigments of the atchara (atchara: pickled vegetables such as papaya, scallions, and carrots). When I took my first bite of the fried rice, the blend of all of them together was scrumptious! Yes order this dish! 5/5 STEAKSILOG: I would order just the steak alone! The skirt steak was savory, juicy, and mouthwatering! Yummy! 4.5/5 Kare Kare Tamales: This dish was delicious! Kare Kare is one of my favorite Filipino dishes, so when I saw it paired with tamales I was immediately intrigued. The presentation was beautiful. The flavor was rich and unique. The oxtail was tender and the peanut sauce paired well with the savoriness. 4/5 CHICKEN AND PANDAN WAFFLE: This plate was their take on chicken and waffles. The pandan flavor was there, but I wish the waffle was thick, instead it had a crispy thin cookie like texture. 3.5/5 DRINKS: Bartender has skills! Beauty in the booze! I appreciated the artistry in creating our beverages. I loved the details of the flowers and layers of color. Cheers! All in all I had a great time eating at Sampa! I loved the food and service!

I was greeted as soon as I got there and the bartenders were overwhelmed but still friendly and helpful. I was so tempted to get a margarita, since theirs are amazing, but decided to keep it dry and just get their vegan nachos. I was able to score a table outside on their lovely patio, which felt secluded enough from the main street. My food was brought out quicker than I thought and I was delighted, as I was famished! The vegan nachos here are fantastic and the happy price is only $10, which is a steal for what you get! They are costed in the most magical concoction of a bean puree, cashew cheese sauce, and guacamole which all have the most creamy, luscious and savory flavors. It's so hearty and well seasoned and not only filling, but you feel great after. Parking is pretty easy, as there are usually ample meters available nearby. I cannot wait to return again soon the next time I'm in Downtown LA! I am hoping to try more of their vegan options and next time I will for sure get a drink to go along with their delicious food!

Lastly, I really dug the tostadita de atún. It hit perfectly on these hot summer days. Low-key, I still want to try the El Rey de Noche.

I have been here a few times for dinner but this was first time for brunch. I made a reservation, was asked to confirmed reservation 3x, noted it was celebrating a birthday and gave no preference on seating. I arrived on time, but one of my group was parking. There were a few people milling around and I was greeted with "checking in?" No hello, no welcome, no mention of celebrating and told to let them know when entire party arrived. (This is becoming more common to be seated along with a $25 per person fee if I canceled less than 24hrs. I know restaurants are struggling but come on!) I watched as 'walk-ins' were given priority tables and when our party was complete, she was squeezing in a 3rd chair to a small cafe table right by the pass through door. No asking our preference. When she returned to seat us, I said "you're not putting us at that small table are you?" Her response - "yes...unless you want to sit inside." How was that not a conversation first? A professional would have said "I apologize, where would you prefer to sit? I see you made a reservation, are celebrating an event and we had some unexpected guests for seating options." Perhaps she was having a bad day, or was still reeling from a prior customer interaction but she was NOT up to the standards I equate with Manuela. Go for the food but don't think by making a reservation you get any special acknowledgement.

I've only ordered to-go through someone, so I can't speak for ambiance but it's an extremely busy lot, so if you live near & want to enjoy in the comfort of your own home, it may be best to plan ahead, bring ice box, take multiple ppl so one can order/pick up & other can stay in the car if there's no parking. We've tried the mango stinky rice sundae (must order), Thai tea lemonade- basically cha manaow (can skip), mango sticky rice drink (pretty good if you're looking for drink version of the sundae but can be off putting texture to some), Thai tea shaved ice (melted so fast so wasn't very enjoyable), pandan toast (a lil dry but good w gelato), & gelatos: mango (good staple), coconut milk butterfly pea (yummy/creamy perfect w mango sorbet), jasmine matcha (good choice), pandan milk (strong flavor creamy yummy), earl grey Thai tea (top 3), hojicha crunch (#1), & Thai tea coffee (eh ok just coffee). All the gelatos were shining stars it just depends on preference; very thick, flavorful, & creamy. I've tried 3x in the past 2 months but will be back for more~

Last night my friend and I visited MOOD for dinner, and honestly, this was one of the best dining experiences I've had in Los Angeles. We ordered the duck, miso salmon, tres ceviche, and blue cheese stuffed olives - and every dish was genuinely impressive. The food tasted incredibly fresh, flavorful, and well thought out. The miso salmon became the favorite of the night for both of us - tender, juicy fish with a slightly sweet glaze paired with carrot purée sounded unusual at first, but somehow worked perfectly together. What honestly stood out the most to me was the price-to-quality ratio. Considering the quality of the ingredients, the presentation, the flavors, and the overall experience, I personally haven't been to another restaurant in Los Angeles that could compete at this level for the price. The cocktails were also amazing. Tropical Mood had a perfect sweet and sour balance - refreshing and easy to drink. Red Velvet was smoother and slightly sweeter without feeling too heavy or overpowering. And the service made the evening even better. Karolina, Diana, and Dasha were so attentive, welcoming, and professional that the whole atmosphere felt warm and comfortable from start to finish. Already looking forward to coming back and trying more from the new menu. Thank you, guys - you're doing an incredible job. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mood, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. I ordered the Tuna Tataki Salad, and it exceeded all my expectations. The freshness of the ingredients was immediately apparent--the tuna was perfectly tender, and each bite was bursting with flavor. The salad was accompanied by an incredible sauce that perfectly complemented the dish, enhancing the natural taste of the tuna without overpowering it. The presentation of the salad was equally impressive, with a beautiful and artistic arrangement that made it almost too beautiful to eat. The atmosphere at Mood is truly something special. It's vibrant yet relaxing, creating a perfect environment that lifts your spirits the moment you walk in. The ambiance is so inviting that it makes you want to stay longer and come back often. The staff also deserves special mention. They were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations that made my dining experience even better. It's clear that they care about providing top-notch service, and it's this level of care that makes Mood stand out. Overall, Mood is a restaurant that I will definitely return to. Whether you're looking for amazing food, a great atmosphere, or outstanding service, this place has it all. Highly recommended! read more

Instagram made me do it, and I'm so glad I did! I've been eyeing Mood on my feed for months, so when I heard they finally started serving dinner at this trendy LA spot, I knew I had to book a table immediately. First impression: The space is actually much cozier and more intimate than it appears on social media, which honestly added to its charm. The interior design and table setups are absolutely adorable, creating the perfect backdrop for a night out. Plus, the staff was incredibly sweet and attentive from the moment we walked in. Now, let's talk about the food because the quality here is top-tier. The highlight of our night was definitely the meat--it was cooked to absolute perfection and packed with flavor. What makes their dinner menu so exciting is the global influence; they offer an eclectic mix of dishes from different cultures, making the ordering experience feel like a fun culinary adventure. Pro-Tip for Elites: Because the restaurant is quite small and the dinner service is the talk of the town right now, tables fill up fast. Definitely secure a reservation ahead of time. Also, don't be afraid to ask the staff for recommendations--their diverse menu has a lot of hidden gems! Such a fantastic addition to the LA dinner scene. Can't wait for my next visit! read more

If breakfast is an art, MOOODLA is the Picasso of brunch spots! From the moment we stepped in, the vibe was effortlessly cool, the service was top-notch, and the food? Next level amazing. We ordered the Eggs Benedict, and let me tell you these were PERFECTLY executed. The eggs were poached like a dream, the hollandaise was silky smooth, and the flavors were on point. But the real showstopper? The Syrniki with Mango Custard fluffy, golden, and paired with that creamy, tropical custard that had us dreaming of a second round before we even finished the first bite. A HUGE shoutout to Kate, the manager, who made sure our experience was beyond perfect. Her energy, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality took everything to the next level. If you haven't been to MOOODLA yet, what are you waiting for?! This spot is a hidden gem that's about to blow up. We'll definitely be back! #BrunchGoals #HiddenGem #MOOODLA #MangoCustardMagic read more

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this place! The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented with such attention to detail. Every dish looked like a piece of art, and you could tell how much thought went into the design. The drink I tried was truly unique--I've never had matcha with mint before, and it completely blew me away! The flavors were so refreshing and perfectly balanced. As for the syrniks, they were amazing! Soft, rich, and perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of sweetness. Every bite was heavenly. The atmosphere was perfect for spending time--it was spotless, cozy, and inviting. The service was top-notch too. The servers were so polite and friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. This place is definitely a gem, and I'll be coming back for sure! I'll also be recommending it to everyone I know. Truly an amazing spot! read more

The place is beautiful and has a great vibe. The food was nicely presented, but unfortunately it lacked flavor. I ordered the Mood Vanilla Latte, and that was definitely my favorite part of the experience--I absolutely loved it. As for the food, it was quite dry, which was disappointing. However, I might give the restaurant another chance in the future. The service was the biggest downside. The staff was not very friendly and seemed serious throughout our visit. No one came by our table to check if everything was okay or if we needed anything. At one point we were missing utensils, and no one noticed or offered assistance. The employee clearing tables had an even less welcoming attitude. I was also surprised to see an automatic 18% gratuity added for a party of 3 adults, 2 children, and 1 baby. Overall, the atmosphere and coffee were great, but the food and service need improvement. read more

I recently had the pleasure of having lunch at Mood, and it was an exceptional experience! The shakshuka was absolutely delicious, with perfectly poached eggs in a rich, flavorful tomato sauce that had just the right amount of spice. The fresh herbs and warm, crusty bread on the side made it even better. I also tried the syrniki, and they were some of the best I've ever had. Light, fluffy, and slightly crispy on the outside, they were served with a delightful mix of mango and fresh berries that balanced the sweetness perfectly. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and welcoming, and the service was attentive and friendly. Whether you're a fan of these dishes or trying them for the first time, Mood is a must-visit read more

I visited Mood LA and really enjoyed the experience. The food was delicious and fresh, and overall everything was well prepared. The service was good and attentive, the staff made us feel welcome and checked in at the right moments. The atmosphere deserves a special mention: very cozy, modern, and comfortable, a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. One small thing to note -- if you prefer your steak served very hot, it's a good idea to mention it in advance. Mine came more warm than hot. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I would definitely recommend it. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this brunch spot! It has a cute aesthetic with covered outdoor seating. The menu has a variety of unique options. I ordered the steak and eggs, and it was pretty good. It came with potatoes and greens on the side, as well as some sort of sauce that added some flavor. The steak was nicely seasoned and cooked how I'd requested. It was a good well-rounded meal. The wait staff was good enough, and they answered questions about the menu in addition to giving recommendations. My experience here was positive and the food was enjoyable! read more

We visited Mood as a family and had such a lovely experience! My daughter absolutely loved her kids' waffles, especially being able to mix and create her own sauces, which made it so much fun for her. We were blown away by the Truffle Tortufo and Truffle Oatmeal - both dishes were so unique and full of flavor. The decor and ambiance are stunning, the service was top-notch, and we really appreciated the beautiful terrace seating. Just a heads-up: make sure to book a reservation, especially on weekends, it gets busy! We'll definitely be back! read more

They've incorporated some of their own flavors and culture into the restaurant's dishes. The shop is a two-story design with excellent natural light; the sunlight streaming in creates a lovely LA vibe Avo Toast offers a choice of hummus, avocado puree, or cream cheese base. Overall, the ambiance is great. While the dessert was a minor disappointment, I found the other dishes quite okay. The menu also gives a generally healthy feel, making it a great brunch spot to hang out with friends, soak up the sun, and chat. read more

The potato pancakes were the star of the meal; thick, golden, and perfectly crispy, with a dense texture that was surprisingly satisfying. They're served with a traditional Ukrainian house made sauce that adds just the right burst of flavor. The yogurt waffles were another pleasant surprise tangy, unique, and totally worth trying. The restaurant has a cozy vibe, the staff are warm and welcoming, and the drinks are just as thoughtfully made. A fantastic spot in Beverly for a brunch that's both hearty and wholesome. read more

Wow--what an incredible experience! This place is exceptionally welcoming and perfect for a big birthday brunch. The food was outstanding--the best French toast I've ever had in my life. Every dish was beautifully presented, bursting with flavor, and absolutely perfect. Even on a busy Sunday afternoon, when the staff was swamped and short-handed, they remained kind, attentive, and incredibly helpful. Despite the rush, their service never wavered. I couldn't recommend this place more! read more

Mood Cafe is a trendy brunch spot with a really nice atmosphere and aesthetic. The food tastes fresh and the ingredients seem high quality, but some dishes could definitely use a little more seasoning and flavor. It's also a bit pricey for the portion sizes. Service could be improved since it felt a little slow and inconsistent, but overall it's still a solid spot for brunch if you want a cute vibe and fresh food. Not perfect, but definitely not a bad place to check out. read more

As a Ukrainian, I'm so proud to know that this beautiful spot is owned by Ukrainian people! The atmosphere is stunning -- modern, stylish, and inviting.

The service was incredibly welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back every time we visit LA! read more
