    Avocado Benedict eggs & muffin - Yum
    Christine M.

    In town for LAX and found this place on our way to another breakfast spot- luckily we chose Mid Kitchen instead! Friendly service, cool vibe and extraordinary breakfast choices. We had bowls, Benedicts, sandwiches & avocado toast: all well made, appetizing, and generously portioned. Even the coffees & cappuccinos were delish. Although we don't know the cafe's backstory we gather they're local & have a dedicated base as they greeted walk-ins by name! We'll be back to sample unique luncheon choices.

    Green Superfood Omelet
    Iris P.

    This was a great Turkish cuisine experience! When you check this place out try their traditional Shaksuka! It's wonderful! Also pictured was their green superfood omelet and their steak and eggs they have Turkish coffee as well as regular coffee and you have the choice of non-dairy creamers You could visit this restaurant for breakfast, lunch, or dinner they have so much to choose from! The service was super sweet and the ambiance is beautiful inside and out and of course we sat on the patio because why not?!:))

    Chicken and Waffle
    Elgin B.

    Sometimes you just need a place to talk. I didn't think much of the Mid when I first arrive to the space. I was looking for a nice spot to get coffee and maybe a meal while my friend and I caught up. I was greeted by very welcoming, colorful staff with great personalities. The interior was nice and comfortable. I wasn't even sure if I was going to eat food because the goal of the day was to make sure that my friend was comfortable. She very much enjoyed her meal. I tried her tea and it was delightful. After the conversation I was a bit hungry so I got the chicken and waffles with a coffee and it was good. Nothing to ride home about but good. I personally like chicken wings with waffles but the chicken breast was cooked well and the meal was decent. The mid is a perfect place for what I was personally looking for, a space to have a conversation over a light meal and it her much accomplished that. I would definitely recommend. The food was decent and reasonably priced. Not a bad choice for brunch with a friend. 3 of 5

    Went here for brunch with mom and the place was packed! We got lucky that there was a table for two. We ordered the Avocado Benedict, Steak & Eggs, and the Cabbage Cucumber Tofu Salad. Would not recommend the Steak & Eggs for the amount and price and the Benedict was a bit hard to cut into, but other then that the food was good, especially the salad! Our server was really nice as well and checked up on customers frequently with plenty of coffee refills.

    Burnt pancakes

    These pancakes. How do they let this out the door? Burnt cookies not too bad. Burnt pancakes, ugh. Their sausage was burnt but not too bad. Potatoes were crisp and delicious. To the Mid: This is the color of burntness.

    Shaksuka and a coffee
    Wes S.

    Heh I saw Shokshuka on the menu which I don't see very often, and they did a real bang up job bringing it in a metal pan that was very hot, but the egg was nice and still liquid yolk, and aspicy sauce. more than I could even eat the coffee is the kind that they keep pouring in your cup refills so then I decided I had to have a cookie, and which they served It warmed up very nice! Friendly, and the owner out helping the server keeping customers happy

    Ever since the yelp event, I have been wanting to take my family here! Covid made it a tad difficult, but I am glad we got to come for brunch today! Everything was delightful! The crab cake my hubby had was excellent! I didn't taste any breading at all! All seemed to be real crab meat :D The green shakshuka I had was a nice twist of the traditional one, which is always my go to if I see it on menu :) I def overate since we also ordered sides and fry bread for my daughter, and I ended up cleaning her plate

    Croffle Plain with whipped cream and maple syrup

    Was very pleasantly surprised to find the Turkish inspired food on their menu for breakfast. It's a cute little cafe with very sweet employees. I also appreciated how calm their atmosphere is, allowing for conversation without there being a rush.

    Classic French Toast
    Em C.

    Great brunch/lunch spot with a balanced menu of sweet & savory dishes. Waitstaff was knowledgeable and provided us with recommendations based on our hunger level. French toast - great texture and flavor. Not overwhelmingly covered in syrup like some places. Fresh fruit atop. Plenty to split between 2. Buddha bowl - lots of great flavors and different consistencies. Fresh falafel over a bed or carrots, beets (which i normally don't LOVE but in this dish I didn't mine), kale and cous cous. A great, hearty dish that masks the fact it's actually healthy! It doesn't look large in photos but be sure to come hungry if you're planning on getting this. Chicken club - pretty tasty, we loved the bread. Doesn't taste that similar to a traditional club but still a great dish that we would get again.

    As always, this spot hits it out of the park. It just reopened this past week, and the flavors and hospitality are better than I remember. Shout out to the owners for the keeping this vegan friendly spot open, and to Grace our server for the top notch service!

Got greeted by a friendly host and even friendlier waitress, both who were accommodating all night. The tacos are pricey, but two will fill you up (and im a big eater). I got the Al pastor and Alambre -- both nearly overflowing with meat, and just the right amount of toppings, with room for salsa. Salsa wasnt up to my spice level, but very tasty. Ate food with a Margarita, which was offered smoked with Mezcal or regular tequila, and that too was a bit pricey, but again, you savored every sip with that tajin covered rim. 10/10, and would recommend for date night. P.S. No pics because everything and smelled looked too good I was so busy eating!

    I had high hopes for authentic Mexican tacos. We were seated right away with no reservations…read more It was after we were seated and given time to look at the menu that the hostess let us know they were not serving alcohol because their license expired. I was a little frustrated that we were not told before seating down. We decided to stay anyway. Started with Guac and chips. Unfortunately the guac lacked flavor. We asked for lime and salt to add to it. Then we ordered steak and lengua tacos. Not the best carne asada I've had. Maybe it was a bad day for the kitchen. We finished our night with a flan for dessert. It was ok. Definitely not original flan. Maybe I'll give this place another change the next time I am in town. The staff was nice and polite overall but the food has room for growth. Cute and cozy decor overall.

There was a live saxophone player and I loved the live flowers they had. Our waiter was extremely nice and took the time to explain the menu as well as their customer favorites. I order a Thai iced tea which wasn't bad but I prefer mine a little thicker and sweeter. It came in a thin tall glass which in theory was not a lot of drink. To start we order the chicken appetizer and fried beef on rice to share and unfortunately I did not snap a pic but these were listed under apps or shareables but the portions were extremely small. As our mains came I noticed that they were also small and each were around $20-$30 per plate. Not a bad thing if you don't eat much but I'm a big bang for buck type of gal. My family came to share and this place is a more fine dining thai restaurant which could explain the smaller portions. We ordered the pad Thai which was alright in my opinion I expected a little more flavor, the aubergine which was tossed vegetables as recommended by our waiter which was also ok not much flavor but beautiful plating though, and the coconut curry which was by far my favorite. If I were to come back here I would order that again, it was a nice light yet complex flavor profile which made me savor every bite. Overall good place for an upbeat fancier meal and I highly recommend the coconut curry braised chicken if you visit. Little pricey but that's just my opinion let me know what you guys think if you visit! Oh and they also give your receipt in a boat which they spin and leave a thank you card once you paid which was really cute.

They were all very nice and welcoming. We chose Comida for its vegan options to accommodate two in our group with dietary requirements. There were just a few options, but enough to make choices. For the vegan dishes, we placed an order for 2 of the Kamoosh De La Choza. For this dish we asked that the sour cream be omitted, and that the vegan queso be substituted in place of the original queso. We also opted to "add a protein", the vegan chorizo. Soon after placing our orders, the waitress returned to let us know that there would be a $17 upcharge for each vegan queso substitution. We all looked at each other a bit dumbfounded. An order for their regular queso is $15, and an order for their vegan queso is $17, so wouldn't it make sense for the upcharge to be $2 to substitute it on the dish?! We, ultimately, decided to order one Kamoosh De La Choza, and an order of just the vegan queso. I've had and made, many a vegan ques., some, with or without cashews. This queso missed the mark for us; a bit odd in flavor and too thick to be called queso. The Kamoosh De La Choza was, otherwise, flavorful with the added vegan chorizo. The rest of our party enjoyed the burrito and enchiladas. The portions here are all large which is a plus.
