Randomly found this place looking for a brunch not knowing it’s a famous brunch spot in SD. Decided to wait an hour for the table and not disappointed. Brioche French Toast is so gooooddd, even better when accompanied by fresh berries. Toffee coffee was too sweet but that was my fault not to let them know to reduce sweetness. If you don’t like too much sweet coffee like me so make sure to let the waitress know. Very satisfied with this place and plan on taking family back!

Walked in on a Tuesday (12/30) and sat very quickly. Waiter had a lot on his plate but still did pretty well. A definite highlight was the club sand which. This was larger enough for me to take home and have a whole second meal, so worth every dollar for me. Probably the best Club sandwich I’ve ever had to be honest. The pancake was also delicious as well as the potatoes and sausage. Really great place to get brunch, I’d pick this over a lot of other places we’ve been!

Madi in San Diego nails the brunch game, bright, beachy vibes and food that tastes like sunshine on a plate. Generous dishes showcasing the delicious meals Madi has to offer. Excellent place for Sunday morning after a long and excruciating Saturday night get together 🥳 The cocktails are dangerously smooth, and the vibe is effortlessly cool. Huge shoutout to Johnny, our server extraordinaire, who made everything seamless with charm, humor, and perfect timing. He turned a great meal into an unforgettable experience. His recommendations were spot on and the lavender lemon appreciated, thank you! Cheers, Johnny!

Nice atmosphere, but wrong food choice MADI is always packed, which actually says a lot about the place. Luckily, they have plenty of staff and everyone seems busy but organized. I came alone for breakfast and got a seat at the bar almost immediately — that was a nice surprise. I ordered the Corned Beef Hash and Eggs, but honestly, I didn’t enjoy it. The dish was maybe 10% meat and 90% potato — plus more fried potatoes and two eggs. Not what I was hoping for. Probably just the wrong choice on my part, because everything else coming out of the kitchen looked good. Overall, great service and pleasant atmosphere, but next time I’ll definitely try something else.

Have special dietary needs or wishes? Try their Build Your Own Bowl. It’s a godsend! Available all day, you can design a breakfast or lunch that’s vegan, egg-free, grain-free, and/or gluten-free! I included a photo of my husband’s “bowl”. He loved it! For gluten-free folks, our server was extremely knowledgeable and even double checked about something she wasn’t 100% sure about. We were so grateful! My latte was delicious, with a very velvety foam. Yum! Madi is a stylish cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommend!
