Nestled in a nondescript strip mall next to a laundromat, this neat little place is just fine for breakfast and lunch. Extensive egg choices and specials every day. Good-sized portions of tasty food served up with a smile from the friendly waitress. Besides breakfast specials, plenty of sandwiches, salads, and other entrees are available. Plus, how many places offer Spam and eggs, nowadays? Just like a Monty Python sketch, you know.

I don't think this place has changed since I went to school at UW... and that's fantastic. It's like eating a nice Mediterranean meal in someone's kitchen. The staff is super friendly and the space is interesting. It's unique at this point on State Street... but that makes it worth stopping by. My wife and I went for the Shwarma plates... chicken for her, lamb for me. They came with rice, salad, hummus, and pitas. All of it was tasty. A perfect amount of food for lunch.Only two minor knocks... First, it's cash-only. It's 2017... have to accept credit cards. Second, I would like to see a few more spices/ingredients... the simplicity makes the Mediterranean Cafe accessible to everyone but also limits the ability to customize. Perhaps this is an Americanized take but something I've seen at Mediterranean places in Chicago.Definitely stop by while on State Street... it's great to eat there or to take it over to the Terrace should the weather cooperate.

You can't go wrong! It was all so good!! The nachos with jackfruit carnitas was so fantastic! Then we had the crabcake po-boy which were both fantastic! Tried to go again on our way back through town a few days later but they are closed on Mondays. Will go again if ever if town!

Nice busy restaurant, friendly to kids as well as vegetarians. A large family group was here for Sunday brunch. You place your order and carry your own food (could be tricky for some people in the upstairs seating area). Generous-sized portions, frittas, pancakes (large!) and other food was very good. We shared a scone and found it tasty but too sweet, however.

Stopped in on a gloriously sunny Sunday morning around 9:30am. This place was hopping, but donât let the lines discourage you, they are pretty quick. Tables are a little tight, but everyone in the joint ... workers and patrons were all friendly and upbeat. You order at the counter and then find a spot and they bring you your food. My friend said his coffees was amazing! Three mugs and took another to go. Avocado toast was more unique than Iâve had. Rather than a spread like, it was whole pieces of avocado, plus pumpkin seeds, some lemon and orange zest and some sort of sauce, but it all worked. My friend had eggs (scrambled and cooked to perfection), potatoes and toast. He was pleased with his meal. Potatoes had good flavor. Overall, a great experience on a busy Sunday morning.
