    It was a perfect post-Broad Street Run brunch with friends. Service was slow but, this was most likely due to the high-volume of customers and, only two wait staff. Won't hold it against them. Highly recommend this place for a breakfast or lunch.

    SLOW SERVICE!!! Took over 2 hours to get food on Saturday lunch. Waiter was so crazy busy that he took our orders for food and said he would come back for drink orders. He came back 15 minutes later. It took almost an hour for food to appear. When placing the order, the sauce was ordered on the side, but came on the eggs. It had taken so long the I didn't send it back to be corrected. The kitchen just couldn't keep up with the orders. I have been here many times, and while it is usually a leisurely brunch, this was just slow and painful. If you have 3 hours for brunch, this is the place, otherwise, reconsider your choice. I had to ask for a refill on my hot water for the tea. Just not up to usual standard.

    Service was slow but friendly. The of the place was nice and chill. I may go again if in the area. I ordered a quesadilla which at $11 to me was high for a basic quesadilla. Also we ordered a turkey buyer that was just massive for no reason. Dessert shakes were good. Pound cake ,not so much. Apple Brown pie seemed to be a hit.

    MTJIC is a casual, friendly restaurant with food that is similar to pub food, though of higher quality. We enjoyed the fried chicken and waffle sliders as a starter. The portion size was so generous, it is practically a meal by itself. The burger was delicious although cooked to a very well done temperature. The service was great and it is a BYOB, which is nice. We were so full from our meal that we ordered 2 scoops of ice cream rather than the mile high apple pie a la mode for dessert. If you are looking for a nice casual place to eat at a reasonable price, you should choose MTJIC!
