"The spectacular Momed is tucked away in a residential neighborhood with subtle signage – this is not your typical looking restaurant, but the backyard oasis is a hidden Atwater Village treasure. Traditional Mediterranean cuisine with a modern twist…influences of Italy, Spain, Israel, Lebanon, Turkey and Morocco are felt in a divine menu that throws in a little California flare for the win. A perfect example is the addictive Avocado Hummus, which you can devour in a pleasant, casual setting with a lovely Egyptian Tile dominated aesthetic. Happy hour and brunch are not to be missed." - Brains on Fire
"Mediterranean spot Momed is back open in Atwater Village. They’ve got a big patio where you’ll eat lamb and beef meatballs with pine nuts, feta, pomegranate seeds, and tomato ragu, and excellent chicken skewers with chickpea aioli and tzatziki." - brett keating
"Every time we take someone new to Momed, they inevitably say something like, “Wait, how did I not know about this place”? Chalk it up to its location on a quiet industrial/residential side street, but this upscale Mediterranean spot remains deeply under the radar. And that’s despite having a gigantic, stunning patio and an all-around excellent menu. Start your meal with warm sourdough pita and stand-out sides like avocado hummus and sweet muhammara, then end with juicy flat-iron beef shish and a spicy jidori chicken." - sylvio martins, brant cox
"Wahl dined at Momed in Atwater Village for avocado hummus, wild mushroom manti, and a Porn Star martini, appreciating the ambience and the exceptional wild mushroom manti." - Matthew Kang
"Every self-respecting Eastside neighborhood needs one, breezy Mediterranean restaurant with a carefully curated design plan that makes you feel like you’re an extra in Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again! This place used to be in Beverly Hills but is now in a huge space on Casitas Ave., complete with cabana seating, a full bar, and long communal tables. The food is broadly Mediterranean, with dishes like avocado hummus, grilled lamb chops, and a whole-roasted orate that’s bathed in a lemon, herby sauce we wish we could bathe in. But what you’re here for are the laidback vibes and channeling your best Meryl Streep with a tan. " - arden shore, sylvio martins, brant cox
