Good stop before a Majestic play due to the location, right across from the theater. Food is not bad and their service is good, albeit a bit on the slow side. The menu consists of basic food such as hamburgers, wraps and salads. It is located inside of a hotel and is open and airy with a sandwich place feel. Prices are on the higher side: a plain hamburger, small, dry patty in brioche bread, with a tomato, pickles and lettuce is $14.00. It is served with fries or a small salad, but still costly for a burger. The chicken wrap is $17.00 and a salad with protein added on, can run you up to $18 dollars and over. M.O.H is a quick eatery with simple food and fancy prices, in an ideal location.
Stopped here for a quick bite, it was a Saturday or maybe even a Friday night. It was totally dead, walked in, ordered a sandwich before the concert across the street. It was perfect. Service was good, easy order. It seemed fancy but once I saw the menu, it became really casual. Reasonably priced as well!
After a long day of exploring the city on foot, we discovered this restaurant near our hotel. We didn't expect much when we walked in and we almost left because it took awhile before our server came To the table. I'm glad we stayed. They make the best Reuben sandwich. The shrimp avocado wrap was ok but that Reuben stole the show.
