    Steak and eggs!
    Jeff K.

    Tried Mood Restaurant in the North End and... yeah, the food absolutely lives up to the hype. We ordered the mascarpone pancakes (ridiculous in the best way), a turkey and ham croissant sandwich what had no business being that good, and steak & eggs that felt like someone actually cared about breakfast again. Drinks were just as fun vegan eggnog plus a pistachio latte (don't question it, just order it) and a pink non-alcoholic situation that tasted like brunch decided to dress up. Now let's address the elephant sitting at the table with no water: the service. Everyone complaining? They're not wrong. It's slow. Like... "you start reconsidering your life choices while waiting for a bottle of water so you can serve yourself" slow. And yes, management should absolutely just lean into reality and overstaff the place. It would solve everything. BUT and this is important, if you walk in knowing that, you're fine. The staff, when they get to you, are genuinely kind and friendly. It's not bad service, it's just... delayed service. Also, if you've got green hair and are confidently pulling off a look that says "I am both the main character and the plot twist," you will feel right at home here. I don't fully understand it, but I respect the commitment. Just thought people should know going in, just like the delayed service. Bottom line: incredible food, good vibes, patience required. I'll absolutely be back... and I might bring my own water bottle next time just to stay ahead of things.

    French toast
    Magda C.

    Amazing French toast, and my son said chicken sandwich was very good. Serice was slow on Saturday for lunch.

    STEPH JUDGEMENT: Excellent food, but the service was a little slow. We were looking for a breakfast spot in the area and they had good yelp ratings and an intriguing Mediterranean-centric menu. When we got there we were impressed by the nice decor and relaxed, laid back "mood". I stated things off with a coffee, which was excellent. The hubby got the Falafel bowl, which had nice crisp falafels, and the accompanying pitas were great also. I got the Smoked salmon Benedict, which I enjoyed, although I thought the side salad was a bit overdressed. While our server was very nice, things took a while to come out. If you're ok with a leisurely breakfast/brunch, Mood is worth a look.

    Swordfish
    Andrew H.

    It was an absolute crime against humanity that I was the only person inside this restaurant! Buried in the touristy "Italian" part of town is a restaurant that is doing its own though with a unique take on Mediterranean cuisine. I got a swordfish dish and it was as delicious as it was gorgeous. The plating was immaculate. The meat was perfectly seasoned and cooked. I paired it with a local Cold IPA from the liquor store one block over because this place is BYOB. I was so impressed with the food that I did something I almost never do: I ordered dessert. I went with the pistachio cheesecake, and, like the swordfish, it was something special. Please skip chicken parm at the darkly lit Italian American restaurants with long lines and come directly here, you won't regret it!

    Greek Salad
    Maddy F.

    Get the orange juice!! It's SO good. They juice it right in front of you, and you can taste how fresh it is. Totally worth the $8 glass. I enjoyed my Greek salad and my boyfriend liked the smoked salmon Benedict. Food was fresh, colorful, and tasty. A bit pricey but to be expected when in the city. Our server was training and she was wonderful -- friendly, funny, and attentive! The manager checked in on us as well which was nice. The inside is so pretty!

    Pistachio Latte
    Bisma A.

    Super cute spot in the North End with a delicious menu! We came in the evening for their dinner menu and were still able to order coffee drinks too. The must try are the pistachio lattes! We split the fried halloumi, Greek fries, and sword fish kebab for food. We loved how unique and filling the food was. My favorite was definitely the fried halloumi. The star of the show was definitely the baklava cheesecake so don't leave without ordering it! The staff is so friendly and welcoming, our food also came out pretty quick! Stop by if you're in the area!

    Shakshuka and falafel bowl
    Monica L.

    Was busy on a Sunday during brunch but didnt have to wait long for a table. Interior is nice and classy. Food comes pretty quickly too. We got the falafel bowl and shakshuka and both were very yummy and flavorful! The pita was nicely toasty too. Overall pretty good experience!

    Delicious breakfast, staff were friendly and spunky, ambience was warm and cozy. Perfect breakfast and coffee spot. I'd be a regular here if I were local!

    I cannot express enough how much I loved this place when visiting Boston. My friend and I were wanting a late breakfast/lunch and found this place online. We came at the most perfect time and got a table right by the open window. This place was so quaint and the waitress was amazing. We kinda ordered a bit of everything and it was all so delicious and perfect. Presentation was beautiful, portion sizes were great, and taste was just amazing. Everything tasted so fresh, and I just thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. If ever in the area do not pass this place up.

    Mediterranean Omelette
    Elizabeth Y.

    Mood is a Mediterranean gem located in the North End! The quality of their ingredients is fresh, and the omelette was filling. They were also able to accommodate and make my pistachio latte decaf which I appreciated! At times, the service was slow and seemed understaffed, but it didn't hinder our brunch experience.

    Josh F.

    It's easy to see why this place has the reviews it does. I've never had a meal like this - everything made to order and you can quite literally taste the freshness. Make sure you leave a little extra time to really savor each and every bite. Fatima and Seda took great care of us and we'll be back for sure.

    mediterranean omelet
    Muriel D.

    Service was good, server was kind and answered all questions about menu. The ambiance was nice and bright. We went on a weekday so it wasn't too crowded. The food was delicious and fresh! The orange juice felt like my straw was sucking right out of a fresh orange, they really mean it when they say freshly squeezed. I enjoyed my omelet and the accompanying salad. My friend enjoyed her greek salad and chicken. Overall, solid spot for brunch

    Nice view from table by the open window
    Kasey H.

    We had a great brunch here on a Friday afternoon. We ordered the Mediterranean Omelette and the Mascarpone Pancakes. The pancakes were delicious, fluffy, and perfectly paired with a generous serving of whipped mascarpone cheese. The omelette was fresh and light, even with the caramelized onions and fresh mozzarella inside. We were seated by the open window and had a nice view of the street. Our waiter was attentive and professional. Would come again!

    Attended a birthday party in the patio...So incredible! The…read morefood was phenomenal! I am not a foodie and had no idea about the ingredients but am now interested in the art of cooking due to this experience. Now I only want to drink beet sumac soda!!! The wait staff could not have been more pleasant. While it was not my birthday, I felt like I had been queen of an extravegant experience! Thank you! Happy birthday, Sandy and Patty!

    I had a reservation here and when I arrived there would be a short wait for inside or outside…read more(which was kind of cool that night) or immidately at the bar. Okay, for a solo adventure I chose the bar and yes, they took me to a seat there. Looking at the menu I knew it was tapas style going in but before I could really start looking at anything the bar tender said, "or, there's a chef tasting." Okay, stop there, let's just do that and add the meat and fish option. To start was the Strawberry Fattoush - Little Gems, Cucumber, Pomegranate Vinaigrette, Pita Chips, Sumac - amazing. Next was the Warm Buttered Hummus - Basturma, Tomato, Black Olive. Still doing great! Then the Fried Mussels - Hot Peppers, Turkish Almond Tarator Sauce. Can't say I have ever had those before! The Spinach Falafel - Tahini, Beet Tzatziki, Pickles was next. Though you could roll it up, eating it that way was pointless. Back to the knife and fork. After that was the Grilled Asparagus - Sorrel Aioli, Puffed Black Rice, Bergamot Honey. Probably the most familiar looking dish of the night. Then the Sultan's Delight - Tamarind Beef, Smoky Eggplant Purée, Basil. Aamazing! Still going after that was the Swordfish - Nettle Freekah, Red Pepper Tahini, Buttermilk Fried Fiddle Heads. Then finally the Turkish-Style Profiteroles - Brown Butter Crème, Sesame Caramel Cashews, Halva with something else on the side. All of this with a Shepherds Pilsner which I believe is my first brew from Palestine. Who knew that was possible? Needless to say, the meal was quite an adventure. Definitely worth it. All amazing as was the service at the bar!
