Cafe Medina is a local favorite for brunch, famous for its Liege waffles and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. While the food is consistently praised for its flavor and quality, the long wait times are a common point of contention. The atmosphere is lively and cozy, though it can get quite loud. Service is generally friendly, though some guests have felt rushed during peak hours. It is a solid spot for a special breakfast if you are prepared to queue.
