Madi Pacific Beach - Reviews

My experience at the restaurant was generally fine, though the food wasn't particularly exciting. The service was just okay. A notable issue was the insufficient bathrooms for the size of the restaurant. Parking presented a mixed experience: it's free on the storefront side of the lot, but costs $24 on the other side. Regarding the food and drinks: - Chilaquiles: 4/5 - Grilled cheese: 4/5 - Lemon ricotta pancakes: 5/5 - Basic breakfast: 4/5 - Guava mimosa: 3/5 - Spirulina mimosa: 2/5 - Breakfast burrito: 3/5 - The goat sandwich: 3/5 - Vanilla latte: 5/5 - Fresh OJ: 5/5

My experience at this restaurant was excellent! We had brunch and it surpassed our expectations. Our server, Elyse, was very attentive, personable, and ensured we had everything we needed. The patio was decorated for Christmas and felt very festive. Our group tried the biscuits and gravy, brioche French toast, the breakfast sandwich, and shashuka. Everything was very tasty. The vanilla bean latte (half sweet) was delicious, and the pineapple cold brew was a hit. We will definitely be back!

My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The service and staff were super great, earning a perfect score. However, the food and drinks were a different story. I ordered eggs over-medium, but they arrived barely over easy with a runny yolk and snotty whites. For a restaurant aiming for a higher caliber and with a price point of $30–50 per person, I expected the eggs to be cooked correctly. The coffee was just 'meh, ' but the mimosas were great, though on the pricier side; the fresh OJ was likely the best thing we had. The biscuit was served so cold that the butter wouldn't melt. While it was cool to check out a new spot, I'm not sure we need to go back anytime soon.

I've been to this restaurant 2 times and had a great experience. The place has a great atmosphere and the service is excellent. I especially enjoyed the biscuits and gravy, which were really good!

My experience at this restaurant was absolutely delightful! I came here for lunch and it has quickly become my new favorite spot at the beach. The menu is amazing, and I'm eager to try more dishes. I ordered the chicken salad and sampled both mocktails, and everything was incredibly tasty. The entire staff, including servers and food runners, were very friendly and efficiently accommodated our need for timely service.

My experience at the restaurant was great. We were quickly seated by the hostess. The food was really good, and the gravy on the chicken fried steak was awesome. The wait staff were all great and attentive.

My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! The food was super delicious, and the pancakes were wow 🤩. The service was also amazing. I very highly recommend this place.

My family and I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. We enjoyed a variety of delicious dishes, including the French toast with berries, coconut pancake, Mediterranean poached egg breakfast plate, and breakfast burritos. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was bright and inviting, making it easy to have a conversation.

I made a reservation for a weekend brunch, and we were seated right away. We had a large group of 8+, and they were great with handling all our orders. For food, the Waffle Churro sticks were so yum, though the blackberry sauce with jalapeño wasn't my favorite. I would get them again. The blackberry & goat cheese pancakes were better than the lemon blueberry ones, and I appreciated the maple syrup served on the side. I’d ask for butter on the side next time. The lemon blueberry pancakes were just okay; I feel like I can make them at home and wouldn't order them again. The build your own bowls are definitely the way to go! You get exactly what you want, and this dish was probably enough for two meals. The basic dish was similar to a build-your-own bowl, featuring typical eggs and bacon/sausage. The chipotle chicken melt was good when hot but became dry as it cooled. A 20% gratuity was included for our large party. Indoor/outdoor seating is available, but there's no wifi. Apple Pay and credit cards are accepted, and a bathroom is available. The vibes were cute, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to eat here again.

My experience at the restaurant was a mix of excellent food and a very slow start with the service. The food was good, and the potatoes were particularly delicious. The atmosphere was also fantastic, truly on point. However, the service was quite slow; we had to wait a long time to order and to get our drinks. Once we finally placed our order, the food arrived promptly.
