Review of Momed Atwater Village

Here is my gripe - restaurants where they ask you,...

Here is my gripe - restaurants where they ask you, "Have you ever been here before?" and I'm like "Where, Atwater? Glendale? A Restaurant? A place where I read a menu?" - it's just a bit over-dramatic the whole "this is our F&B Concept, PLZ TRY to understand" when the dishes are as ubiquitous as hummus, pita, whole roasted cauliflower, etc. Drinks were fine, food was quite tasty and service was cloying and annoying, I really do not want to hear about your F&B concept. Overall i'd say it's more than a bit overpriced but they went ALL IN with the tacky decor, so I guess it's gotta pay somehow.

BUT also I would say - where can you eat outside in LA? Sometimes it feels like nowhere... so with that in mind, I think it's a good option for a larger group of people who want to sit outside and have some ambiance.
