Mood Restaurant & Cafe

No line to wait in at 7 pm at night, and the best food we have had in the last 5 days of sightseeing in Boston. We started the meal with a complementary order of falafel, which totally changed my mind about falafel! So crispy and flavorful! Who knew? Definitely not me I ordered beef kebab and... wow. 5 stars! Perfectly cooked tender beef served with a hot tomato sauce. It came with carrots, which were on a bed of seasoned yogurt and topped with toasted bread, crumbs, and parsley. Everything paired perfectly. My husband ordered the 7- spice beef patty in the sandwich section of the menu. It came in a hand-made pita which was out of this world, and a tahini dressing that perfectly complimented the sandwich.My daughter ordered the chicken Shawarma and said 10 out of 10 she would recommend it. Wish I could have enjoyed it with a glass of wine (they are not serving alcohol) but another couple was smart and brought their own bottle of wine.We ended with the tiramisu, which was the best I have had in a long time.Amazing food, great service, and adorable spot. Highly recommend checking them out!

I found this spot a bit haphazardly and almost missed an amazing experience in Boston.Great food, friendly and knowledgeable assistance, really didn't take that long (though I heard someone else comment on 15m being too long... and they didn't want to wait - the manager offered them an option that they seemed to find suitable), and was quiet as they've just opened and are one block off the busier street. I would have appreciated something other than politics on the TV (not sure tv is needed?) but that's personal preference. Pita is made in house, everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Enjoy the food no matter what meal you go for.

My teen daughter and I stumbled across this newly opened cafe today while looking for breakfast in Boston's North End. The ambience was spare but clean and inviting. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The breakfast menu featured a few American & European style favorites plus some Mediterranean style dishes. We opted for the eggs Benedict (called Benedict eggs) and the mascarpone pancakes. Everything was super delicious. The eggs Benedict arrived on slices of Brioche style bread, which we decided was even better than the usual so-called English muffins. The sauce had a hint of nutmeg. The turkey bacon was crispy. The pancakes were a small portion (which we preferred) and great texture. Lovely sauce and fresh berries. The halva latte as well as a cardamom iced latte were spot on too. Like any cafe with made to order food, come in with a patient attitude as you are not getting fast food! Relax and enjoy your beverages.Also, as the place just opened there was no wait at all! Don't overlook this new little family-run gem!Ps They accept cash and cards, and if you set up the Toast app on your phone you can also pay with a QR code and be on your way.

Four months new restaurant, serving Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch & Dinner. Excellent service and food. Ambiance very cozy. Highly recommend. BYOB encouraged

An amazing restaurant. The best food. Excellent service. Every order is made from scratch. Fatima and her husband have brought an excellent addition to the neighborhood.

I stopped by Mood Cafe & Restaurant in the North End recently. Surrounded by many Italian restaurants, Mood Cafe & Restaurant is a casual sitdown Mediterranean eatery serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner and they offer takeout as well. The place has table seating in the front window and along the right side wall. There is also seating up at the coffee/espresso bar.I decided to eat in since it was very muggy outside and this place was a nice spot too cool off. I took a seat at a table next the front window. The server gave me a dinner menu to look over. I decided on the Chicken Shish Kebab ($21 plus tax), which took about 20 minutes to be served. This dish had tender pieces of marinated chicken, crispy onions, garlic aioli, dried berries over 2 steamed khinkal (cinnamon rolls). This kebab dish was unique since most places serve kebabs with rice and this plated dish had cinnamon rolls. The chicken pieces had good flavors.After I was done, I requested the check with Toast QR code, which came out to $22.47 with tax and before tip. I paid online and I was good to go quickly. as I headed over to Hanover Street for some tasty cannolis for dessert in true North End fashion.

Came across this beautiful spot for breakfast in the North End. Food, service and ambiance are wonderful. Highly recommend the Shakshuka.

Wonderful food (both breakfast and lunch menu), incredible service, lovely ambiance, and very accommodating and friendly to our large family with 2 young kids. Highly recommend!

Amazing ambiance and service! Very clear both the owner and servers care very much about the menu and food. Even thought it's a new restaurant there is an incredible diverse, and fresh menu, I loved the Shakshuka!

One of my favorite spots in the North End! It's nice to have an option that's not Italian food.The owners and staff are incredibly friendly. The ambience and decor is lovely.I've dined in and ordered take out from Mood and both experiences were great. The hummus & meze sampler are both fresh and delicious. The chicken shawarma & the beef shawarma dishes are excellent as well. I'm also a big fan of the pistachio latte. Just a heads up - the restaurant is BYOB but don't let that deter you. There's a wine shop just a block away from the restaurant so you can easily grab a bottle from there and enjoy!
