great salads – Menu here has a lot of variety. Their Cesar salads are one of the best I have ever had. The location in Univesity City has great outdoor dining and cool atmosphere. I like being able to choose between a ceasar salad or fries with my meal. Large portion sizes. The chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich is excellent. Large enough for two to share.

Corporatised Diner? – I have enjoyed almost all the meals that I've had here. The menu is relatively diverse and the selections pretty good. Brunch is excellent.

Reliable – Old reliable-great location and nice ambiance as a neighborhood eatery
I go at least twice a week! – MOTS has a great brunch Saturday and Sunday. The place gets crowded so you have to expect to wait a bit on weekends. The waitstaff is generally very good and not obnoxious, pushy or annoying you every few minutes. I live down the street and enjoy going during the weeknights for a drink and meeting friends. It's a great neighborhood place. I have recommended it to many people and will continue.
Always great food, drinks and crowd... – I've eaten and drank here several times, and the food, service and ambiance is always lovely. Fish, salad, or burgers are always classic and tasty, and all for a reasonable price.
