I wanted to make fun of myself for just getting the grapefruit and yogurt with an iced coffee for breakfast , but then I ate the yogurt and realized IT'S THE TRUTH. The biddies are onto something.
In the morning, find Stumptown coffee , homemade croissants and full breakfast plates , including soft-boiled eggs with challah "soldiers" (strips). Read more
Morning options here include steak and eggs ; green shakshuka with challah toast ; and a rosewater waffle topped with Lebanese yogurt , mixed berries , and honey syrup . Read more
Love the hype and the atmosphere of this place on a cold winter night. Wish I liked the food as much. Spiced cheesecake was a winner. Bloody Mary mussels didn't get finished.
Our server was great. The kebabs and eggplant is a good starter option to share. The Madame Freda was delicious. Don't pass up the Malva Pudding , I'm not one for sweets but this was worth it.
New York’s finest! Get the soup and the egg brunch dished
So charming! Was in search of a light supper and lively atmosphere . Delicious, fresh &clean flavors. The roasted cauliflower and grilled pita was delicious. Friendly , welcoming staff . GOOD VALUE!
Had the Rosewater Waffle , was tasty and fluffy. Poached Eggs with grilled Tomato and Haloumi was yumm! Green Shakshuka was okay I guess.
Damn, I am IN LOVE with this place and whoever Jack/Freda is. Chicken kebab & shakshuka make life worth living and the rest of the menu + friendly service is worth coming back for, over & over again.
Everything is good. The food, the staff , the atmosphere. Wish this place was close by although, it's probably best that it isn't :) Recommend the Mediterranean Breakfast & Matcha Ice Tea (sans milk )
Very nice tiny restaurant in Soho. It's packed around lunch times but tables move quickly so the wait is not that long. Friendly waiters , delicious food & comfy atmosphere! A must <3
Cute space, and tasty menu items with simple ingredients. Tuna salad is SO flavorful, and light, too (perfect for a hot summer day!). Definitely want to come back and try more brunch items.
We've waited for 45 min BUT IT WAS WORTH TO WAIT FOR!! Everything was terrific! Poached eggs , green shakshuka were really good. rosewater waffles is another story!! So yumy! Its a must.
Almost never have a bad bite here. Neighborhood staple with some of the best people watching in Soho. Standouts include the Peri Peri Chicken and the Bloody Mary Mussels !
They have a great breakfast selection ! Try the madame Freda (pressed sandwich with duck prosciutto , cheddar béchamel, gruyere & a sunny side up egg ) or green shakshuka - they use tomatillos !
Eat this: matzo ball soup made with duck fat , a skirt steak sandwich served alongside hand-cut fries , & piri-piri-hot-sauce-marinated chicken kebabs , soft-boiled eggs with challah "soldiers" (AM only) Read more
The chicken kebab with the green sauce is great! Get it, it's totally worth it and the waffles & fries tastes really good too. Of Course coffee and noise cancelling headphones!!
This place is first come first serve. Always packed but worth the wait! Brunch is great. I recommend order more than one dish to share with your friends. Any of their breakfast items are delicious.
One of my neighborhood favorites. The trick is to get there early enough so that you don't have an hour wait. Really cute , cozy feel. This place has so much character. Awesome for breakfast and lunch .
Stumptown coffee with any dish here is delicious. Duck bacon is surprisingly good. Arrive before the brunch rush (around 11) and you'll have a seat.
R29: Kale Greek salad is the best in town , Mediterranean breakfast with two eggs , salad , avocado , and pita always hits the spot, Cantaloupe mimosa is a pretty damn awesome way to start your day.
If you're willing to wait for brunch , it's great! Eggs benny, mint tea , sit outside when it's nice. Put your name down at least an hour before you want to eat on the weekends! So photogenic
Delicious meal! Do not miss out on the green shakshuka ! Next time I will be getting the matzoh ball soup ! Staff was extremely friendly . Lunch time gets very busy but still accommodated us fast!
Fabulous place. Love the fusion of Lebanese & American cuisine . For breakfast , start with a bowl of grapefruit , yoghurt , granola , mint & honey
Lovely little brunch place , loved the rosewater waffles ! Make sure to come early— about half hour after opening a cue starts gathering at the door.
Where you want to nestle yourself on any weekend afternoon with friends. Kale Greek salad is the best in town & the Mediterranean breakfast with two eggs , salad , avocado , and pita always hits the spot.
The chicken kabab with a healthy portion of the hot sauce is the perfect balance of savory, spicy & fresh.
Really busy! But that's a good thing! Sure, might not get the best seating due to the busy-ness. But the food makes up for it by far! That mint lemonade is the best!!
The Bitches say: A. Go for the flavorful ethnic menu offerings in this popular neighborhood joint. We recommend going during the week right as it opens to avoid an epic wait time. Read more
For a light and satisfying lunch go for the greek salad with chicken and make sure to get some of their specialty hot sauce on the side
We love coming to this effortlessly cute spot for a romantic brunch . Definitely try the Prego Roll , the Rosewater Waffle or the Green Shakshuka and a Sweetened Iced Green Tea .
Great sandwiches ! I had one around 4pm, mine was with aubergine , my husband took one with steak - both were delicious! We had salad and kale as sides which were great too!
Middle eastern twist. Good for breakfast . Poached eggs with halloumi , rose water waffle were good
Maya’s breakfast bowl blew my mind, and their green shakshuka is amazing, their Mediterranean breakfast is great. The place is oozing flavor with every dish ????????????
I can't forget all the dishes, they were perfect, baked chicken was so soft and tasty. Curry also. Here is my best place ever????
I love everything about this place. The food is incredible, and even though the place is trendy enough to expect attitude from the staff , they're all exceptionally kind and attentive.
Zucchini fries , done right, can be even better than their potato counterparts. Here, it's a perfect crunch on the outer shell and zucchini that practically melts in your mouth. Chase with cold beer .
Love! Delicious and affordable . Bootsie Collins to drink. Salt & Pepper Eggplant and grilled haloumi to start. Peri peri chicken is so tasty. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.
Accompanied with a glass of stumptown coffee anything on the menu is great for a brunch with friends. Cozy atmosphere .
Delicious brunch !! You can’t make reservations but put your name and walk around for a little bit and come back!
Start your brunch with a tasty cantaloupe mimosa . Move on to the Madame Freda grilled sandwich . Brunch done well . Delicious.
Pashot eggs were astonishing and so was my capuchino . I will return for the friendly bartender and music in the cafe .
Don't miss the poached eggs ???????? I came in the weekend and the service was perfect ???????????????? highly recommended
One of the best brunch spots you can find! The Madame Freda was unreal! Great Bloody Mary too! Expect a long wait though!
Cute little place in soho! Really good food and friendly service . Get the prego roll , that's some good steak in there. Save some space for desserts too - I really like the fruit crisp!
Be prepared to wait if going for a weekend brunch , especially with bigger groups. This place is very "in" right now and filled with trendy folks looking for a good avocado toast .
Love the feel of this place, gets crowded on weekends so prepare for a 40 min wait approx. Menu items are simple and light with a delicious middle eastern flavour.

I don’t think it’s worth it. Madame Freda is too rich. Maya’s breakfast bowl didn’t blow my mind, despite a Foursquare review I read... but the halloumi is definitely unique and fantastic.
Outdoor seating is really nice and comfy. Fries and burger were really good. Cucumber cooler ???????? - Jasmine Mehrabi
Hummus, Fish Shawarma, and Fries are all delicious. Go with something spicy and don’t miss the yogurt ice cream for dessert. - Sol
Delicious cortado. Great quality coffee. Grab a cookie and snag a seat. Mirrors are special. Cool set up with interesting (but limited) seating. - Alexa Jane Brooks
Weekday any day brunch with a cool cafe vibe on weekdays and a daylight party vibe on weekends. Get the Bloody Mary and whatever looks good - Luke
Breakfast egg sandwich on buttery brioche can't be beat and the canneles transport me to my favorite patisseries in Paris. - Alexandra Wood
