Went here for a quick breakfast, but ended up staying longer as I was just cherishing every bit of goodness of the scrambled egg! It's one of my favourite egg combos for a long time! This place can get quite busy, so come early to get your seats!
Carbonara was not your typical creamy, heavy type served but the more traditional version and was thoroughly enjoyable. Had lots of bacon (which in comparison to other restaurants who serve this style of carbonara use bacon very sparingly) and the sauce itself nice and light...how a carbonara should be. The salt and pepper calamari with steak chips and salad also another highlight. I don’t usually like thick cut chips but the ones served here I would have an exception for. Really crispy and moist; not too dry. Would highly recommend both dishes!!!
Serve was also really friendly and prompt.
Ordered the avocado toast with hash browns and mushrooms and a cold drip on the side. It would be better if the avocado was seasoned but overall everything was delicious. Friendly service and nice atmosphere.
Ordered the chilli cheese scramble and superfood brekky.
Great fast coffee service and the chilli cheese scramble was fluffy and there was a good number of cherry tomatoes that added a layer above the cheesiness. Not sure if it shows in the photo, but there is a generous amount of egg! The sourdough bread was crisp, but hard to cut through but that’s to be expected with many brunch dishes. Bacon underneath did not overpower with saltiness, however it was still present - not very crisp, but that’s what you expect with middle bacon.
I didn’t personally have the other dish, but apparently it was filling, egg was poached nicely and the crisp kale around the dish was important for a crisp.
We had a great experience at Mocha Jo's. We were struggling to choose where to have brunch but I'm glad we chose this place. The food was delicious and came out very quickly which was just what we needed.
I ordered the Chilli Cheese Scramble and it was one of the best I've had. Just the right amount of chilli and cheese. My partner ordered the Louisiana Waffles which were delicious too, couldn't get enough of that fried chicken and it was the perfect balance of savoury and sweet.
Good work team!
Wonderful staff and great service !
Bunch of our friends were looking to have brunch last minute and we decided to go Mocha Jo’s.
Ambience - Place has lots of seating both indoor and outdoor so if you have a pet and the weather is good outside , we’d recommend sitting outside. Ambience inside was quite nice too.
Service - they were nice enough to accomodate us (6 people) last minute and the person taking our order was really nice.
Pricing: pricing seems within range compared to other brunch locations.
Food - I ordered Eggs Begs and it was quite nice, well cooked and surprisingly it was quite filling
Overall - we enjoyed our experience and will come back in future.
Really popular place in that area. I been cross so many times but didn’t go once. Got dinner with friend and good pasta and coffee served. Nice and friendly staffs.
Mocha Jo's a staple of the foodie community in Glen Waverley. An institution that has stood the test of time and why is that because it a place for friends, families, couples and just a simple coffee.
Because what they do they do well, they are continually improving their food and always wanting to do better.
On a recent visit, stopping in for breakfast we tried the waffles with caramelised banana and bacon and it was a treat.
There is a reason people come back to Mocha's and we think it has something to do with the food.
Came here on a Wednesday afternoon for early dinner. I had the calamari and my partner had the lamb. Really decent food, portions on the smaller side for the prices. Exceptional service - really friendly staff. I also got the peach ice tea and really loved it! Will be back when I’m in Glenny.
Came in to celebrate a work birthday lunch. Online booking system was very easy to use and table was ready when we arrived. Very fun and friendly service from all wait staff.
Only reason they loose one star is we ordered desserts and the poor girl had to keep coming back to tell us that the cakes we ordered had sold out, so we changed the order three times before we could get dessert. It would have been better if the staff knew the quantity of the cakes before letting us order, and seeing as they where in a glass cabinet that shouldn’t be too hard.
Food well priced, possibly more towards too pricey for basic burgers, but it was all lovely and well cooked.
Received fantastic customer service here.
I planned a brunch with 7 colleagues and it went beautifully.
Thomas was very attentive, approachable, and pleasant to talk to.
He even informed us of the discounts available and we ended up saving some money too.
Food was delicious and the hot beverages were of excellent quality.
Will definitely be going back and recommending this place to others
Thank you to Thomas and all the waiters and waitresses who served us today. You are all very incredible and we appreciated your hard work.
Tasty food and great service. Very accommodating at the last minute for Mothers Day. The gift of a coffee on the day was a beautiful touch. Will continue to go back. Thank you!
Excellent place to meet up and to have breakfast or lunch with friends or colleagues. The food are delicious and well presented. Their coffee are also great.
Friendly staff and service, excellent food (beef burger/mix berry cheesecake), exceptional coffee (decaf mocha).
But it was most certainly at a price. I'd estimate every item was at least 20% more expensive than a regular cafe. Some things even more. With that said they were generous proportions and high quality ingredients.
So if you can afford it, its a great place to go.
Potential downsides:
* the outdoor music was a little loud, this caused people to talk louder and made it difficult to hold a conversation. I'd imagine it would be much worse during peak hours (we went at 2:30).
* Limited up front parking. Only 3 spaces are available up front and the slight slope to the 2hr parking behind may make it difficult for disabled customers to get there. It's not far but as someone who can't walk inclines for too long, it's a consideration.
Overall, it was a good experience and would go again if in the area. Thanks to the staff for being so nice and attentive and kudos to the Chef!
Mayne, I reviewed this place a few weeks ago but I am back to update it. The sticky date pudding here is a 10/10. I literally had it on Friday then came back the next day and had it AGAIN. Gahd dayum, words cannot describe how good this sticky date pudding is.
Went to get some BBQ. Gotta give them credit for pivoting during lockdown. When I went there weren’t many people waiting. The cafe was highly ventilated and people were waiting outside for their food. Food itself was alright. Nothing amazing but nice to get out on a sunny day.
Great coffee and breakfast. Friendly staff with good service too
