Delicious food! However, you can't get a seat. You will be waiting for hours and there are no reservations.

The food is excellent, the ambiance sublime, and the employees are super friendly. I am a chef by profession, from Germany, the land of kartoffelsalat, and their potato salad is so good. Artistically decorated. Even the bathrooms are lovely. A lovely cafe and I will come back.

One of my favorite restaurants! I am in love with the respect and care shown to the farm-to-table ingredients. Props to whoever plans the menu, sources the ingredients, and writes the recipes. Homemade southern biscuit is excellent! And where else have you seen a kosher restaurant that offers soft scrambled eggs? (If you know of somewhere please tell me, I want to try those too :)My compliments to the chef who pulls it off. Amazing!Another restaurant on the list of “keep coming back to try everything on the menu”

Food is ok, but for the last couple times I've come here I've felt unwelcome and uncomfortable, especially by the girls. Id like to think it's not because of any social implication, but I am brown so... Anyway won't be coming here again.

Good service and delicious coffee, I think it tastes better than Starbucks in my opinion. Staff Lea has the most beautiful smile that warms your heart in the cold winter.

Got there to pick up my order and a bunch of people were blocking the entrance area and acted like they couldn’t hear or see to move out the way. The food is usually decent but I asked for well done fried egg and got an inedible over cooked, burnt egg - it was like eating paper with a plastic lining on it. The sweet bowl was the opposite of sweet with very little crème fraiche, the fruits weren’t ripe either. Made me not want to come back honestly.

Nestled in the heart of Riverdale, Moss Cafe is not only a haven for coffee and tea enthusiasts but also a culinary gem with a small yet scrumptious menu that showcases the perfect fusion of flavor and elegance.Moss Cafe's commitment to a concise and thoughtfully curated menu is a testament to their dedication to quality over quantity. The small selection of dishes is designed to offer a diverse range of flavors, each crafted with precision and an emphasis on fresh, locally sourced ingredients.Also, their delicious menu of fresh teas blew my mind. I will be coming back soon!

Vegan eats review:Bibimbap VeganizedFlavorful. Just the right amount of kick that enhances the flavor but doesn’t leave your lips on fire.Pickles cucumbers and the wafer thin sweet potatoes hit the spot.Love Moss for their fried and true vegan options and how they strive to have a new dish or two that are veganizeable.Always busy and crowded but turn around is fair for a table. On warm days there are also tables outdoors.This isn’t a rush eats place though so give yourself time to order, receive your eats, and savor the well thought out ingredients (locally sourced).Dietary restrictions: Vegan friendly
The servers were not friendly or helpful. Tables were never cleaned between diners (observed 4 tables not get cleaned prior to allowing new customers to sit). The coffee was cold and tasted burnt, and they gave me dirty silverware for my coffee. The only reason I did not give them one star is because the French Toast was good.

Came to Moss after eyeing it for some time! Pretty busy on a Monday morning (of course) but there was plenty of parking. The tables inside were definitely packed so to go it is. Staff was friendly, I was looking for a somewhat sweet iced coffee drink and she recommended the pumpkin spice latte. Iced pumpkin spice latte wasn't too sweet which was good. The chocolate croissant was tasty although I do wish I was given an option to warm it up. This cafe is definitely on the pricey end (paid $13) but normal for the Riverdale area. My drink was about the size of a tall Starbucks drink. Final thoughts : Bright, dainty and cozy place to catch up with one or two friends over coffee as the space is small. If you're around the area in search for a local coffee and don't mind paying extra, give this place a try. Cheers!

Good here is bussin. Definitely recommend the bibimbap bowl and all the baked goods. The people that work here are always really nice but because of the small area, it is always pretty packed. I also don’t appreciate them always finding excuses to close early or be closed for the whole day. Good food, on the pricey end, but definitely would recommend.

Farmers plate and honey butter biscuits are a must order. They say the fish tacos are also great. Highly recommend!
