NoMo Kitchen
8.2
A SoHo hotel dining room where breakfast is strongest when you treat it as a polished start—good coffee, a composed main, and a room that’s designed to be looked at. It’s more about vibe and setting than scrappy breakfast soul, so order accordingly and keep it tight.
Must-Try Dishes:
Breakfast Entrée + Coffee, Brunch Plate (weekends), Pastry + Espresso
Scores:
Value: 6.9
Service: 7.8
Consistency: 8.5
Food Quality: 8.4
Atmosphere: 9.1
Cultural Relevance: 8
What makes it special: A high-design SoHo hotel breakfast built for atmosphere-first dining.
Who should go: Design lovers and weekend brunch planners
When to visit: Weekday mornings or early weekend brunch
What to order: One breakfast main, pastry, espresso
Insider tip: Go early—later service can slow as the room fills.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: No valet; limited street parking in SoHo and can be tough during peak hours—nearby paid garages are the most reliable option.
Dress code: Smart casual to dressy; jeans are fine, but polished looks fit the room best.
Noise level: Moderate to lively during peak brunch—easy conversation early, louder as the room fills.
Weekend wait: 30–45 min without a reservation (brunch hours behave similarly on weekends).
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait in the early morning; short waits possible mid-morning.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—several breakfast-friendly vegetarian plates and sides.
Vegan options: Limited—one or two adaptable options; confirm substitutions with the server.
Gluten-free options: Limited—some naturally gluten-free items; cross-contamination possible.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, especially for a daytime or brunch date—the design-forward room does a lot of the work, though it’s less intimate once it gets busy.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Early mornings are your best bet; weekends after 10am usually mean a wait without a reservation.
Is it kid-friendly? Not ideal—there’s no kids menu and the vibe skews adult and scene-driven rather than family-focused.
Best For
Better for: Atmosphere, visuals, and a polished hotel-brunch experience with solid coffee and composed plates.
Skip if: You want a soulful, value-driven breakfast or a quiet, cozy morning—neighborhood diners will deliver better warmth and pacing.
