    I've been to Main Kitchen many times, and it never ceases to impress! I love trying new things on the menu, and I've honestly never been disappointed with anything I've ordered. Today, I decided to try the Cuban, and it was absolutely delicious! I brought a friend with me this time, and it was great to share one of my favorite spots with her. It's exciting to see this place getting busier and busier, all thanks to word-of-mouth. It's always a good sign when more people discover a gem like Main Kitchen! Our server, Amanda, was fantastic--super sweet and attentive. Her friendly service made our experience even better! Kudos to Deb in the kitchen I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. If you haven't been here yet, you definitely should! See you soon, Main Kitchen!

    Steak and Eggs Breakfast

    5/5 this place. The steak was cooked and seasoned well. It was delicious and easy to slice. Even the fries was seasoned good. I'm impressed with this place they keep it good including the staff service. Inside is still clean and well lighted. They did a good job keeping the place with good food and service.

    I just found a little gem in Canoga Park called Main Kitchen--and I can't believe it's so close! If you're in the West Valley and want a cozy, impressive breakfast or lunch spot that will have you coming back again and again, you've got to try it. They have two locations, but the one on De Soto is perfect for large groups. It's a small business, and I love supporting them--especially since it's Black-owned, which is a big accomplishment in the Valley. The pancakes are delicious. They have side mini pancakes that are about the size of your palm and the entree pancakes are HUGE and delicious. The catfish and grits sent me back home to Ohio and Texas. Yes the grits are smooth. The servers are nice and attentive. Of course it's a small business and there has never been a crowd when I come - which is a surprise based on how good it is. If you need it (hint hint), they have wine, mimosas, bottomless mimosas, beer etc. I have not been here for lunch but I will try it soon. So glad I found MAIN KITCHEN nearby.

    Walked in for mid-morning breakfast. There was R&B playing at a decent sound. Friendly service. Rapid table service. We order the steak and eggs. I cannot emphasize on how good this combination is. From the steaks down to the potatoes. 10/10. The potatoes were not your stale over cooked potatoes at other breakfast spots. Super fresh and perfectly season. The mini pancakes were drizzled with powdered sugar. Definitely a hit. If you're not a sweet tooth the powder sugar is just enough. I poured syrup over one of the minis and I think it was delicious. One thing I can say beyond the ambience being super chill, is that food is fresh and delicious.

    I came here with my husband for breakfast! It was our first time and I already can't wait to go back. They were short staffed but very nice and moved very quickly. I ordered the eggs Benedict and my husband ordered the chicken fried steak. Both were delicious. The poached eggs were perfect and the potato's were the star of the show! The menu had a lot of different items and I can't wait to come back and try other options. There is a lot of parking which is nice and the inside was very nice and clean.

    The food here is delicious! I especially like the El Dorado burrito. Their green sauce is just heavenly. They are always nice and bring my to go order to the car since I have trouble with mobility. Ambience is comfortable and rustic. I like this plate and they get an a letter grade. Let's do our part to keep them in business during these hard times.

    Fried Chicken Basket
    Adriana R.

    The food is amazing here! My husband and I had their chicken basket and fries and huevos ranchers. There is so much love put into the food, and the coffee tastes great. The chef, and the wait staff are very attentive and kind. We will definitely be coming back again.

    The Signature Breakfast

    The sausage and pancakes were delicious. We were greeted and seated very quickly. The restaurant was cozy. I enjoyed every bite!

    Steak and Eggs Breakfast
    Chan B.

    I really enjoyed this place! It's nothing flashy or wow but just like simple comfort food! I got the eggs Benedict with potatoes and my husband got the steak and eggs. We both really enjoyed our food! Service was great, the waitress was so sweet and attentive. The decor is very comforting as well, just a super welcoming vibe. Only thing I was eh about is the iced coffee. I'd recommend getting hot coffee over the iced coffee. It's just coffee in a cup with ice and they give you creamers on the side.

    I really appreciate how them for saving my day lol!! It is a nice place with cool artworks and Kobe's quotes... love it. We visited today and I was at a point almost about to pass out ... I was very honest and asked for the quickest food I can eat . I think the server's name was Amanda... she is such a sweetheart and was very quick to prepare the food .. but first things first, I had to get the giant cookie. The cookie was a blessing, very tasty and warm. The food was ok . But good enough to make me feel better. I really appreciate all the kindness and treatment I received today.

We decided to come back with friends but on a Wednesday night at 6:30 instead. Sat at a table in the area where the music was but it was very loud and tightly packed with tables and guests. I could barely hear my friends due to the loud conversations, loud laughter, and just the acoustic affects in the restaurant were bad from that. We ordered steak, sides, and thought baked potatoes but got mashed instead. After we ate dinner we asked the manager if we could seat outside for dessert instead due to the loud noises around us. He brought us there but we had to wait at the bar outside till we were seated took an additional 15-20 minutes. After seated it was better than inside with a nice decor too instead. Dessert was ok service good. For such a high-ended restaurant and pricy food it's only avarage, inside decor pretty but very and tightly packed with guests and loud especially for a week day night kind of unusual, I was disappointed think it's a bit overrated sorry to say. I think Flemings, Ruth Chris, or Morton's are better food wise for the same price and dining experience and not as loud too. Think what could make it better is to thin out the crowded packed affect in the main inside dining area would help a lot too, or, if we ever go back sit outside instead I recommend. The service and staff there were very nice, friendly, and attentive and worked hard during service though. So overall raiting is a 3. Tuesday music night inside was good though think because the band is set up where tables of guests would be so less talking and guests listening to the music instead. Hope they make some changes to there inside seating there for improvements will and could help overall.

PARKING valet is available, but we found street parking on ventura blvd. FOOD 01. squash blossoms ($21 for 5 pc): 8.3/10 these were crispy and light, delightful to eat on their own without the tomato marinara sauce served on the side. casalena's squash blossoms had a strong, lovely hint of lemon that wasn't present in mother wolf's rendition. 02. chicken piccata ($29): 7.5/10 this main was served with a generous helping of potatoes mashed into a delicious velvet. 03. vodka lumaconi ($25): 9/10 this dish was the standout of the evening! the pasta shells were cooked al dente and coated in a slightly spicy, perfectly savory vodka sauce! casalena does not skimp on the sauce in any of their dishes! 04. tagliatelle ($29): 7/10 this pasta dish was not nearly as impressive. 05. tiramisu ($15): 7/10 since we mentioned the dinner was for a special occasion in our reservation, this dessert was served with a candle. while its presentation was lovely, its taste was underwhelming. the espresso was extremely subtle, and there was more madeline than mascarpone/cream. overall, our party of 4 was fully satiated after splitting 1 appetizer, 3 mains, and 1 dessert. service was lovely throughout! and as another yelpie mentioned in their review, their matchbook is very nice.
