What People Are Saying About Mustard Seed Cafe
The Editor

In Short – During the week, this laid back corner café is frequented by Los Feliz regulars and the occassional Grey's Anatomy cast member, fresh from filming down the street. While there are a handful of tables inside the cozy dining room, the prime seats are on the sidewalk. Mustard Seed started serving dinner in late 2008, but breakfast and lunch remain the cornerstones--expect a wait on weekends. For the morning meal, you'll find healthy options: a lean protein plate, egg white omelet, tofu bruschetta and a veggie egg white pan scramble, along with heartier fare from south of the…

Crowded on weekend mornings ... for a great reason
by snoopygirl
I am lucky enough to work fairly close to the Mustard Seed and I get lunch from there at least once a week, sometimes take out sometimes eating in. I find the service super friendly (a waiter once made me a newspaper sailor hat!) and the food is always exceptional. My favourites are the ahi tacos (best guacamole ever from a non Mexican restaurant) and the turkey patty salad. Yummy! Good cookies, great coffee and always fresh.
The only downside is that it is SO popular I rarely eat there on the weekend due to the long queue. I'd like to be able to share my favourite "healthy diner" with more of my friends.
- Pros: fantastic food, neighbourhood feelign, freindly service, outdoor seating, pet friendly
- Cons: too popular, street parking can be a challenge on weekends

the sweetest staff anywhere
by imamommy
The guys and gals that work here are so nice to me and my little ones. They bring toys and crayons to the table and go out of thier way to accomadate a mommy with two kids and a dog.(they even bring a water dish for my doggy. The food is fantastic as well. I alway have the eggs bruchetta for breakfast and the ahi salad for lunch. This place is overflowing with a neighborhood vibe and the atmosphere is appropriatley relaxed.
- Pros: nice people
- Cons: crowded on weekends

re: WORST WAITRESS in the history of mankind!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been a regular here for about two years and have been served by this "short haired" waitress to which you are referring. I think you are the one with the issue. I have never once sensed a bias toward any gender, race, age or sexual preference for that matter; being that I am gay and with child, I am sensitive to these issues. Maybe she was busy as it gets pretty chaotic on the weekends. Have you ever worked in the food service industry? It's one thing to be unhappy with the service in which you receive, but it's another to broadcast unwarranted and frankly vendetta-like slander regarding the core of someone's personality. Are you a psycho therapist or something? If so, you are not a very good one. Mustard Seed ROCKS!
The Details on Mustard Seed Cafe
