Bittersweet Kitchen

Their breakfast/brunch is delicious and absolutely always a win, but people! PEOPLE! I beg of you, do not sleep on their pizza!Or do, it'll leave more for me.

My review's are a based on: Presentation, Taste, Service, Ambiance. I came in with 3 guests on a sunday morning in the middle of July and the orders are under the pictures. Presentation - The presentation is what you would expect of a small, local brunch restaurant but they were missing a proper host stand/host in order to manage the influx of people coming in. From my observation it was just a person that was standing in the front of the restaurant with a piece of paper and cardboard and was just calling people from their personal phone to notify them that a table has opened. The plate presentation was what you would have expected from a restaurant like this and had no complaints.Taste - My guests and I thought the food was very run-of-the-mill and was good but did not leave a lasting impression. Perhaps adding a hollandaise or some sort of sauce to compliment the food would have raised my impression of it. Service - Our waitress was young and I imagine our experience was due to a lack of experience on her part. She was very kind but waited more than 10 minutes before greeting us initially, and our food did not come out for another 30-40 minutes. Granted, the place was busy but she did not come to our table until I flagged her down about 20 minutes in to ask if our food was coming soon. Ambience - I would say they were successful in creating an ambience that matched their "local, small breakfast spot" goal. I think there should be some sort of divider (maybe glass) between the kitchen and the tables adjacent to it to create a barrier between the two areas and a more pleasant experience. I think the open kitchen was a nice touch but some more spacing is needed. Overall, the experience was average and there were some improvements that could be made but it was enjoyable. I would not recommend big parties for this space as it is too cramped and I would recommend two to four people max. I also think the prices were fair for the experience.

I am only visiting Media for a short time because I was here for my sister's wedding.My boyfriend and I came here to get some breakfast in the morning--we chose it based on the pictures online. Looks delicious!!When we came in, a very nice waitress sat us immediately. There were plenty of tables, and they really utilized the space that they had. The tables were close together, but not too close that you had to yell in order to have a conversation. There was some abstract art on the walls that did not really have anything to do with breakfast, but was cool nonetheless. Our waitress was very timely and took our orders quickly. We ordered and it came out within 20 minutes, which to me is perfect timing, because it gave me and my mans enough time to chat for a little before housing down what was probably the best breakfast combo I've had in a long time. The portions were perfect and there were lots of gluten free options. I left feeling perfectly satisfied and not too full after eating the whole thing. Not to mention it was DELICIOUS!!!I would have taken a picture but I was too busy indulging in such a yummy meal--it completely slipped my mind. This place was great, the staff were nice, and the food was delicious. Would DEFINITELY recommend to a friend, and will for sure be making another visit here next time I find myself in Media. 10/10

This is a cute spot in Media for breakfast and lunch. There's street parking. There's indoor and outdoor seating. It smells delicious in there. We tried the Bittersweet Kitchen eggs and Avocado Toast. Everything was delicious. They have Coke products.

Great lil spot!Shotgun review:- Good coffee- Friendly service- Quick experience*- Tasty, imaginative food**- Plenty of gluten-free options- Nice bar/window seats with street views*We went on a Wednesday morning at around 10 AM. I bet it's much, much busier on the weekends.**I couldn't decide between a sweet or savory experience, & when the server suggested that I could do both, I was delighted. I tried their French toast BLT on gluten-free bread & I'm very glad I did. As promised, it was both sweet & savory. Totally delicious & very filling!

This was a good find while in the burbs to celebrate a birthday brunch. A super small spot off of the popular Main Street in media adjacent to the court house. We happened on this spot based on reviews . It's a popular weekend spot Judging by the 30-45 min wait. We walked around media to pass the time. It's a small space with only minimal seating and additional window stool seating. The menu eclectic with classic breakfast with a fun twist. They have a bunch of breakfast specials too that make the menu even better. We started with fried pickles and the apple fritters because why not.... There were four of us two of us ordered the southern pileup which was a fresh baked biscuit with sausage gravy and breakfast potatoes. This was very good hot and savory dish. Generous portion and filling. One ordered the French toast BLT which was an enormous sandwich served on Texas sized French toast with good quality bacon. One ordered the special scrapple omelet. We added on a toasted corn muffin which was served with the best pepper jelly. Don't sleep on this spot it's a solid choice for a good breakfast whether you want classic or elevated breakfast. All in 113.00 including gratuity . This is pretty good for breakfast considering we had two starters. The ambiance is the reason for 4 stars . Could use some brightening. Service and food were good we will have to add this to the rotation .

Very much enjoyed this little restaurant. Showed up on a whim caught between breakfast and lunch. With an array of breakfast, brunch and lunch offerings there are plenty of choices. There are no reservations, and not surprisingly, the place was packed, inside and outside beneath the red/orange canopy umbrellas. The host is a pro, maintaining a wait list and calling those as their table comes ready. It's tight, inside and out. Diners, walkers, parked and parking cars, dogs, kids. The tuna melt, open faced with provolone and tomato over marble rye is delicious and complimented by home fried potatoes. The turkey burger is also a hit. Somehow kept juicy and well cooked without being dry.

The food in the service was excellent good homemade kitchen food with a twist atmosphere solid cramp and noisy for breakfast, but not social gatherings and lunch

We waited leads thank 20 mins for out table by the windows.Made the crème brûlée pancakes with theirveggie omelette .2 cups for Joe.What is delight! What delicious fresh food. Service was good!!
