    Wild Card
    Michele B.

    Never knew how beautiful Ada is! And to have such a cute brunch/lunch/breakfast place is an added bonus. The service was wonderful despite it being pretty busy. I ordered The Wild Card, which was PHENOMENAL! The mushroom mix they put on top was chewy and savory...SO GOOD! Went so well with all the root veggies and other roasted vegetables on the plate. Husband ordered their brunchwrap, which was also delicious, but kinda small for his liking. (He wanted their braised short rib but sadly, they had already run out this morning. ) We will have to come back again soon to check it out!

    Latte

    Food looked absolutely beautiful, but unfortunately it was lacking seasoning and overall flavor. I ordered the brunch wrap with chorizo -- the chorizo was cooked very crispy, almost like bacon, which I wasn't expecting. The aioli and hot sauce really saved the meal. The coffee, however, was excellent and I'll definitely be back for that alone. I also tried a bite of my husband's breakfast burrito and the sausage in that was very good. Service was a bit slow; it took a while for us to be greeted at the table. Prices are also on the higher side, especially considering the food doesn't come with any sides.

    French Omelette
    Michelle P.

    Saturday morning around 10am.. seated promptly. Not super busy when we arrived. Took a minute for waitress to take our drink order. I stuck w water, my daughter got a fancy coffee. Seemed to take a while to get the coffee. Got busier while we were there. I ordered the French omelette, my daughter ordered the muddy Christo. Again seemed to take a while to get food. Food was very good. Bill (with tip) about $50 for the two of us.

    Muddy Bloody
    Barbara S.

    We went to MudPenny for brunch. The service was exceptional. Very friendly and attentive. I recommend the Muddy Bloody - an appetizer in itself! I ordered the eggs and crispy polenta. My partner had a wrap with latkes. Both were delicious.

    Eggs Benedict
    Whitney H.

    We stopped by on a Sunday morning at 10:30 and didn't have to wait for a table for three. Food and drinks were delicious and our server was attentive. The miel cafe was wonderful, as were our meals. Two of us had the Mountie (the sweet potato mash on the sandwich is so good) and the other had eggs Benedict (the eggs were perfectly poached).

    MudPenny's French toast sticks

    After our stay at the Ada Hotel, we wandered across to Mudpenny for breakfast. What an incredible way to start the day! I ordered the Crème Brûlée French toast sticks. Not a single note...the sticks were so good that I was sad to take the last bite. The coffee was so tasty that I bought a can of their coffee beans to take home. Our waitress was lovely, checking in on us frequently. The restaurant was busy with all sorts of customers coming and going. With all of the different seating choices, MudPenny would be a great place for small work meetings.

    Lemon pancakes
    Kassey T.

    In love with the interior of this place! They also have a cute patio, but it was raining so we sat inside. We were greeted immediately and brought to a table. They were very busy for a Tuesday afternoon! I was surprised to see people with work laptops, books, etc posted up at this busy restaurant, but the staff didn't appear to mind. My seasonal blueberry maple latte was such a fun summer twist on a standard latte! My Angela Martin burrito was tasty, but not really any wow factor to it. My dad ordered the lemon pancakes, which again were good but not anything super special. I felt very comfortable with my toddler here- definitely family friendly!

    Cappuccino
    Sarah S.

    Came here for dinner for the first time. They do a nice job of setting a dinner scene from the breakfast/brunch place it's known for. Black table clothes, low lighting, very light music. We stared with a couple cocktails that were good and chose the mushroom donuts that were recommended. Server described them similar to hush puppies. They were interesting and did remind me of a fried hush puppy with a mild, earthy flavor. The black garlic Mayo and chili honey they were plated with made the dish added more flavor to the donuts For dinner, I had the spare ribs with a sliced glazed carrots and cheddar polenta. Large portion and tasty with the meat very tender and went well with the polenta. My husband had the patty melt which was an elevated version of the sandwich on toasted brioche. He enjoyed that as well. They were out of the cab, but we found two different glasses of red wine to go with our dinner (Pinot noir and a cote du Rhône). Nice option for dinner in downtown Ada open Thurs-sat for dinner.

    Wild Card (that's the $4 sausage chip sticking out of the right side). It really doesn't need sausage, but I thought I would try it.

    Food is always tasty! I dig savory flavors and Mudpenny doesn't disappoint. However, I added sausage to my Wild Card ($4 up charge) and got what appeared to be about a tablespoon of sausage that was smash/fried on a flat grill. Otherwise, the Wild Card was tasty and the portion large enough to take home leftovers. My breakfast partners split the vegan burrito with a side of roasted vegetables. Also tasty. Service was pretty good except that our server spoke in a whispering voice, so lip reading comes in handy.

    a menu and a drink on a table
    Jayson D.

    MudPenny is what happens when the little coffee stand that could grows into a fantastic eatery/coffee joint/hangout spot. It's easy to like. Welcoming coffee shop vibe with a dining room to boot. Sit at the counter or take a table. Staff are friendly and proud of what they're doing. The menu I sampled was special for an event I was attending, but I did try a few of the regular dinner offerings. The tagliatelli dish is off the charts yummy. House made tagliatelli noodles are wide ribbons of al dente goodness, tossed with a light vodka cream sauce and served with thick toast. Just want dessert? Get the coffee creme brûlée--it's lights out fantastic. You'll tell yourself you're sharing, but you won't pass the spoon. MudPenny has become one of Ada's little gems. If you're in town give it a (espresso) shot!

    Zero flavor Carmel latte

    Took forever to take our coffee order. Had to wait a bit for her to come back for food order as well. Still waiting on food, arrived here over an hour ago-only myself and one other person and ordered the most basic breakfast. Also coffee was terrible. I got a Carmel latte and there was zero flavor. She did take coffee off my bill so there's that but waitress was very non existent the whole time and didn't give us a heads up on it being such a long wait for food. Multiple tables open so unsure why it took forever. Super disappointed.

    Cheesecake Brownie and Lavender Oat Milk Latte
    Eddie E.

    Cheesecake Brownie: Oh man...this was outstanding. Rich, but I was able to finish it. Btw, IT'S GLUTEN FREE! Lavender Oat Milk Latte: Not a sugar bomb like a lot of flavored lattes at your run-of-the-mill coffee shops. Perfect amount of lavender. Clearly, it's gorgeous There were plenty of other choices for baked goods and coffee drinks. The "latte lady" was a master (Super Bowl Sunday @ Noon; give her a raise). Different drinks had different plating, which shows attention to detail. The brunch menu looks outstanding and the couple plates I saw looked delicious. I will be back to endeavor further.

    My husband and I met another couple here on a Saturday and had reservations, so we were seated…read moreright away. Unfortunately, the experience quickly went downhill. My husband has a severe egg allergy, and when we informed our server, he stated that he did not know how to accommodate it. I was surprised, as egg allergies are fairly common. He even joked that he only knew about gluten. He eventually checked on one menu item and returned to tell us it contained egg, but offered no alternative suggestions or guidance. He then said he was too busy and would have someone else assist us. When another staff member came to the table, it was clear she had not been informed of the situation, as she asked how she could help and was equally unsure how to accommodate the allergy. As a result, my husband was unable to eat at all while the rest of us had dinner. It was very disappointing and concerning that such a significant allergy was not taken seriously by multiple staff members. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone with food allergies. Despite appearing to be an upscale establishment, the lack of knowledge, communication, and willingness to verify ingredients made it clear that we were not a priority. We were left with the impression that they were simply too busy to handle allergy concerns safely.

They also have some great meal deal specials that include a drink, entree and dessert. The highlight of the night though was our server, Emalee. She was probably one of the most attentive servers I've ever had at a restaurant. She's extremely friendly and you can tell she is hustling to make sure her tables are well taken care of. My wife and I actually started joking that our table had a microphone, or she could read our minds, because every time we needed something she was already on top of it. Even to the point that I dropped my napkin and she delivered a new napkin roll without me even seeing it. I was as if it appeared out of nowhere. We had a wonderful time at BJs and will definitely be back.
