Food was good but very small portion. Half sun for $16 with no side. Service was fast. Very pretty inside with nice patio shaded by trees. Quiet and cozy. read more

Moreton Fig - Italian sub - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Went here before a football game last season and was underwhelmed by the difficulty in getting a table as well as the limitations to the menu. This season they have changed it to a tailgate style at the price tag of about $80 per person. The chicken sandwiches and chips were mediocre, and the service was so poor I waited over 30 minutes for a lemonade. Not likely to return unless things improve significantly. read more

Restaurant is within USC campus. After attending my friend's graduation at the Shrine Auditorium, we came here for lunch. Parked in the parking garage ($20). We ordered meatballs, spinach dip, and fries appetizers. I ordered salmon and my friends ordered mushrooms bolognese. Overall the salmon was cooked perfectly but lack of taste. Our waitress was very attentive and always refilling our water and asking how we are doing. read more

Food was very mid and lacked flavor- my boyfriend and I both ordered the most popular dishes, the albacore bok Choy salad and the fried chicken sandwich. The salad was very bland and the albacore was tough, and the fried chicken sandwich was dry. My boyfriend liked the homemade chips on the side though. There was also a fly in his water. read more

Moreton Fig - a plate of food on a place mat - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

So as of 2H 2024 The Moreton Fig is CLOSED for dining and is now reduced to a coffee shop. You can still drool over the images of respectable campus food but you'll be left yearning... read more

Offers attentive service but falls short in menu variety and pricing. The interior feels like an upgraded cafeteria, and our visit at the end of the day lacked liveliness. While the staff were accommodating, the limited menu and higher prices were disappointing. Consider visiting during busier daytime hours for a potentially different experience. Outdoor eating seems like it would be a more memorable experience. Limited hours. You do get a $10 parking credit but you have to email the parking office. Hoping mine will come through soon. read more

I like coming here, especially on Thursday evenings when they have Thornton school musicians playing amazing music in the patio. The happy hour runs till 6 pm and it's a pretty good deal...$6 for Moscow mules and $2 off a glass of wine. I have come here for many office lunches/dinners and do like the salmon, trout as well as the prosciutto burrata appetizer (it's only served for dinner). The service is always friendly and nice and it's one of the good options to have a proper meal if you are on the USC campus. read more

Hidden gem at USC! The kale salad was very tasty, and the fries are always a classic. read more

Moreton Fig - Kennebec Fries - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Great food. Good service. Excellent indoor/outdoor seating... perfect for on-campus lunch meetings.

Bless my soul that my ~$60 dinner was paid for because I'm not sure if I would personally shell out my money to come here. The food is alright, but not spectacular given the options I chose. If anything, I would try the blackened salmon next time because those at my table had great comments about that dish. Otherwise, I would try to dine at the University Club instead. Located at the end of the Ronald Tutor Center building and with its famous tree that's outside in the patio with beautiful lighting, the ambiance inside the restaurant is definitely very classy compared to other dining options on campus. It's much more modern than University Club but smaller. As for service, each employee was very nice and patient. I do have to say that I got thirsty a few times throughout my meal since my water wasn't refilled so much.. The sourdough bread was presented lovely. Although you do need to separate the bread pieces yourself, they were nicely warm and easy to bite into. The butter was already warmed up and so it was easy to spread it on your bread. Citrus price (3/5): Fresh pressed juice that has tangerine(?), orange, and pomegranate while served with a paper straw! Has a strong bitter taste to it. So I ordered the orange juice (5/5) and it's your standard freshly squeezed orange juice, so I was definitely pleased with this! Sweet potato croquette (4/5): Very nice appetizer. Moist on the inside and crispy on the outside. I could taste the sweet potato without any unnecessary seasonings to overpower the main ingredient. Crab cakes (3/5): Did not order these but I had a taste of my friend's and it was quite salty!! Three fairly small crab cakes. Although the meat tasted fresh, I just couldn't get the saltiness out of my mind. My friend didn't say much but she definitely didn't finish the plate. Trout (3/5): I don't know my fishes too well but it seems like the trout is a very thin fish, because most of what I got was just skin and scant meat right below it. I wished I got more fish since it is ... the main entree, so I'm not sure if I should be responsible for my choice of entree... Anyhow, I don't know what to make of the very few vegetables that were below the trout. Not a fan of the falafel type cakes (lentil and garbanzo). Perhaps it must be tasty to others but the texture just doesn't work for me personally speaking (might be tasty for you!) Chocolate lava cake (3/5): Small round cake. Chocolate was bitter. Not a whole lot of cake. With a slight bitter ending to my meal, I was just sad from my experience. read more

Moreton Fig - Trout - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ahi tuna taco in a fried wonton shell instead of corn tortilla. Brilliant and delicious, fresh, quality tuna. Mac n Cheese comes in a metal tureen...big bacon bits and a spicy jalapeno relish...thick creamy more delish. These were the less expensive items and also considered to be appetizers, but I was definitely satisfied. Watermelon lemonade...refreshing. The entrees look amazing, but so do the prices. Ambience is casual elegance. Upscale. But the nicest part...the friendly attentive wait staff and front of house. All the servers were exceedingly well trained. I was dining alone, but they never forgot about me. Kudos! Reservations via Open Table recommended. This place was hoppn' at 6 pm with proud parents with their USC-graduating children...and a smattering of professors. Lovely evening decompressing from a long day of events (and teaching). Highly recommended if you want to treat yourself...and be on a lively beautiful inner-city campus. read more

Quick recap: - Food: Really good - Portion size: Good - Service: Nice - Environment: One of the nicest restaurants at USC - $: A bit more expensive for this level of service - Perks: The beautiful patio (tables, couches, shade under a beautiful tree) More details: We went there at noon. The food was really tasty. As you can judge from the pictures, the salad was nicely presented, well garnished and the portion size was good. I was disappointed by how slow the service was for this price. Overall? Great food, nice staff, high quality but a bit overpriced read more

Definitely one of the fanciest restaurants on USC's campus! They were able to seat us immediately on a Thursday afternoon outside on the patio but they had a mixup with servers and we had about three servers help us out. Their soup of the day (cauliflower) was amazing with the olive oil drizzle and green onions and was by far my favorite! For our main dishes, we ordered the salmon salad, sesame crusted tuna salad, and the salmon main dish with a side of roasted veggies (wowza that's a lot of fish!). The salmon salad which was pretty average and the salmon dish was fair as well. I really enjoyed the veggies even though they were over seasoned. The tuna salad, however, was really disappointing. It only had three slices of tuna on it and no more than a couple leaves of romaine lettuce (which we were hesitant to eat) and for $19, it seemed like someone just threw it together in the kitchen or dropped a couple of leaves on the way out. We were also confused because some tables got bread but our server never brought us any. Overall, definitely a restaurant to visit when you're ready to spend a quick buck $$$. Also, Thank You to Bri for being so professional and helping us out/noticing our needs! Best server at Moreton Fig! read more

On a recent, particularly glorious SoCal afternoon, a friend and I sat on the patio here before class, and enjoyed a nice meal and a couple of beers. Gone are the days of undergrad in the late 90s, when: 1. I would have ordered garbage from the now-gone Carl's Jr. near this location using meal points; 2. I would t have considered spending $17 on a hot sandwich and fries, as that was more or less my weekly entertainment budget (and the approximate cost of a twelver and a pack of 100s from Habib's on Vermont); 3. I regarded forty-something doctoral students wearing sport coats and dress shoes on campus with a certain level of disdain... ... and now, here I am, enjoying the sunshine and the never-ending parade of be-backpacked kids half my age heading down to Marshall or into Student Union, or just meandering around on a four-year ride whose destination is an unclear as the purpose of BUAD 306: Finance was to me. As for Moretonfig, they have a rather pricey but varied menu-- $20-30 buys a plate of food, and a pretty good beer selection will run you about $8/pint. Christian at the bar is friendly and efficient, especially if you belly-up and don't rely on the friendly but sometimes-scarce wait staff. Bout server was a nice young man, but table waters ran dry, and no two-bite "how are you enjoying that?" check-in occurred. Even still, On a cerulean-skied afternoon, how could anyone complain? At 3:00 p.m. the lunch menu ends, and small plate ordering from the bar begins at 3:30. I like the cheese plank, to go for class, of course. Now that I'm older, gainfully employed, and relatively less starving-student, this might be my new in-campus jam when I head down a little early to beat 110 traffic. read more

I was not very impressed with the food at this restaurant. I had a bland, buttermilk fried chicken sandwich with kennebec fries. The slaw on the sandwich tasted like it was tossed in a sauce that is allergic to salt because it had zero flavor. The house-made hot sauce tasted more like mild sauce infused with peppers. The sauce was really bad and didn't taste like it had vinegar in it, which was needed to provide acidity. If you want a really good fried chicken sandwich with all the right fixings, check out the sncc food truck (follow snccfoodtruck on IG) You will not ne disappointed! read more

Every year I take my student workers to Moreton Fig. The customer service is great. The host/hostess and waiter/waitress are always pleasant. We enjoy trying different entrees and desserts and sharing family style. This is a great place for student's family, a lunch meeting or dining in the sun on the main walkway through campus. read more

I hosted a lunch at Moreton Fig last Friday. We needed a private room and this was perfect. Located in the Tutor Center at USC, it's an open airy space. The private room is still bright, but having a door kept the sound low and made it easy for our group to talk. The whole team who worked with us was great--Alberto was our main server and he was super friendly, helpful and professional. Everyone liked their food. I would definitely come back here again. Thanks team! read more

Menu small and food not good. They appear to be failing. Was half full before first game. They need to up their game or they won't make it. Ever since covid the place has gone down hill. They add a 20% surcharge and the waiter does not tell you so they hope you don't notice and they also get a tip read more

Pretty decent, especially for a restaurant on campus. It's a great place to take out people you're trying to impress although if you're looking for a quick lunch, you're not going to get it since the service is a bit slow. The first time i came, I got the seared tuna salad. The salad itself was really fresh and light, but the tuna was definitely not fresh. Overall (and I can't believe I'm saying this), their salads are pretty solid and gigantic. Just don't expect the raw stuff to be fresh. The second time I came, I got the short rib dip which came with an au ju dip. That was actually really good! The meat was really tender and the bread was soft. They didn't skip out on the meat either. The sauce really complemented the sammie. Overall, I would come back, but if I was still a student here, I probably won't be able to afford it. read more

Service- Great. Very helpful and attentive. Pretty quick. Food- I had the tuna poké tacos and the steak grilled cheese. Both were very good but the tuna poké tacos were the best; very fresh tasting and light and the combination of the crisp taco shell and the soft tuna was fantastic. The steak grilled cheese was good but it was a little too salty and greasy which left me feeling heavy. Regardless, I would 10/10 recommend the poké tacos! The complimentary bread was crisp and salty on the outside and soft on the inside. Arrived with a side of soft butter. Pretty great. Aesthetic/ Atmosphere- Moreton Fig has a classy feel to it, but it's still pretty casual. I'd definitely recommend this as somewhere nice to take your parents if they visit. Price- The price is reasonable for the quality and the restaurant experience. Final thoughts- I'd go again! But next time I'm just getting the poké tacos and nothing else! read more

3.5 stars When I first heard that Bradley Ogden's restaurant group, Lark Creek, would be opening up a restaurant on the USC campus, I did a double-take. It seemed a little random that Lark Creek, based in the SF Bay Area, would make its first foray into Los Angeles within a college campus. Alas, it was true, and I eagerly awaited its opening. Monterey calamari with squid ink linguine, jalapeno pesto, extra virgin olive oil - We started very strong with this dish. The pasta had a good al dente texture, but the squid was the star. Tender and flavorful, these were exceptional. A little bit of heat heightened the dish as well. Yankee Pier New England clam chowder with dill drop biscuits - This chowder was rich, but not overly thick - a nice consistency. I really enjoyed the flavor and the chewy bites of clams dispersed throughout. BBQ chicken tamale, cilantro cream sauce - This was an interesting interpretation of a tamale. A corn "pancake" was topped with barbecue chicken and a sort of guacamole. The barbecue sauce was not overly rich or overwhelming, though I would have appreciated a little more corn flavor out of the tamale/pancake. Ahi tuna "crudo" with black olive, fennel pollen, orange powder, chili - This dish didn't really work for me. I thought the black olives overpowered the thin slices of tuna..and everything else really. Seared Pacific sturgeon, beluga lentils, cippolini onions, salsa verde - The sturgeon had an almost spongy texture and was very moist. Good flavor. The beluga lentils (get it?) were a welcome touch, adding some body and more depth of flavor. Roasted steelhead salmon, sauteed rapini, shallots, meyer lemon - I thought the salmon was a little undercooked for my tastes, but it was very moist. The rapini was a good accompaniment. Flavors were definitely there. Pan roasted duck breast, onion soubise, cavalo nero, Medjool dates, verjus - I really liked the presentation of this half-duck with its crispy skin on top. I thought the duck was a little undercooked for me though, yielding meat that was a little chewy. However, it was still a tasty dish - it just took a little more chewing. Lark Creek classic Yankee Pot Roast with young turnips, red chard and grated horseradish - Next was this pot roast. Very tender and with good flavor, though not unlike a typical pot roast. Big duck fat fries - These fat fries remind me of the fries my grandmother used to make. These were confited in duck fat then flash fried. They were fluffy and tender on the inside, but I thought they could've been a tad bit crispier on the outside. Still very good. Roasted brussel sprouts - Simple brussel sprouts roasted and brushed with butter. Tasty. Lark Creek butterscotch pudding, creme chantilly, pecan wedding cookie - Onto dessert! The butterscotch pudding was really nice - not overly sweet nor rich, with a good butterscotch flavor. I liked the chantilly creme, as it added a pleasant lightness and sweetness. Valrhona chocolate cake, pistachio gelato, pistachio dust - This chocolate cake was very much like a chocolate muffin. I wanted this to be a little more moist, and not so crumbly. The pistachio ice cream was good though. My impression of Moreton Fig is of a restaurant that serves upscale food within a comfort zone. Perhaps not as dynamic or imaginative as other Lark Creek/Bradley Ogden restaurants, but I understand that it also needs to serve a college student clientele. The food is solid and well thought-out, and definitely fits a niche among the dining options on campus. This has to be some of the best food ever offered at USC, and I expect Moreton Fig to soon attract diners from around the city. read more

Omg!! The tomato cauliflower soup today was awesome! The chef at Morton Fig knows how to celebrate Fall! I chose to eat in the bar,Nick the bartender provided excellent service. The seasonal bruschetta was excellent and I could not help to enjoy the pastry chef's bread pudding. This restaurant is a fun lunch eatery and accessible via the expo line to USC... Worth a try when visiting campus or the nearby museums. read more

I love love love this place! From the moment you walk in your experience begins. The host/hostess station always has a warm and inviting energy. Once you're seated, your servers continue with that same energy. One of my favorites is the Kale salad. The wine reduction dressing is amazing! I love the burgers and salmon dishes as well. Let's not forget the specialty drinks from the bar. The berry spritz is amazing as well as the watermelon and basil drinks. If I could dine here each week I would! read more

*Happy Hour review only!* I always love to stop in during gaps in my schedule...or when I'm having a rough day. I ordered the potato dish (it's deep fried!) that's the first food item on the happy hour menu. IT WAS DELICIOUS. SO much melted cheese. Their mac&cheese is super delicious and comes served piping hot. I'll definitely have to try it with bacon and jalapenos next time! The pomegranate mojito is also pretty spectacular. :) Keep in mind that Happy Hour by the bar fills up pretty quick, but they offer outdoor seating as well. Try to come on a nicer day so you can people watch, sipping on your drank, as everyone else rushes to class! read more

It's funny how I've walked past this place almost every day during my time as a student at USC, yet I didn't actually think to come until after I've graduated and was visiting campus when a friend suggested we try this place out. Lucky for us, she did her research, and booked a table in advance for lunch, because it actually can get crowded! After staring at the menu and going back and forth between that and skimming through other Yelpers' reviews, I noticed that the menu changes seasonally. I thought this was pretty cool, since you can experience something different every time you come, but it made my decision a lot more difficult (I like to rely on the highlights section for recommendations, haha). I ultimately decided on the Sonoma Salad, which had chicken, feta cheese, almonds, dates, and a light vinaigrette dressing. We ended up waiting a pretty long time for our food, especially since everything we ordered was pretty simple. But when the food was served, I was pleasantly surprised by how tasty it was! That being said, it is pricey here, so good food is to be expected. In general, service was a little slow, even when we asked for our check at the end of the meal, but it wasn't so bad where it negatively affected my experience too much. I definitely recommend stopping in at least once if you get the chance, since the patio is such a landmark spot on campus! Beyond that though, I wouldn't say it's necessary to keep coming back. You can get food that's equally ask good elsewhere, probably for a smaller price tag. read more

Good food and beer selection. Terrible service (bar staff only). Here's what happened this afternoon: I ordered a small plate (prosciutto crostini) at the bar and asked the bartender if he will deliver the food to me, who's sitting outside at the patio, or should I come grab my own food. I thought he said he will take it to me. 20 mins later, I had to go in and ask where did they send my food. I was going to order another beer anyways. The food was sitting on the kitchen table. I asked for another beer and the check. The receipt came in $0.00. So I told the bartender 'am I getting a free beer or is there something wrong.' He also gave me back my credit card. Bartender took my receipt and came back with the right receipt, and another person's credit card. I told him this is not my credit card. He said 'oh I'm sorry I messed up, because you confused me just now.' Sure. My fault. I should've left with a blank receipt with $0.00 written on it. Now will you all excuse me for confusing the bartender, I am going to finish my crostini and salad with both of my fingers since I was offered no silverware. Not going to recommend this place to my fellow Trojans base on the service. read more

Moreton Fig - Angus chuck burger with fries $13 - New American Near Me - Los Angeles, California

After returning to the Moreton Fig for a professor lunch, I think it is much improved. Cons: The complimentary bread is bland; the fries are bland and could be replicated by buying frozen fries from the grocery store; but Pros: The rappini plate they gave us was nicely cooked and salty; the sweet corn fregula appetizer had a lingering spiciness and nice sweet potato taste; the soup of the day was cauliflower cream, which sounds horribly healthy but tasted wonderfully rich and creamy; and the mahi mahi was great - the fish was cooked very soft and tender, the coconut rice cakes were very satisfyingly bready and a little sweet, and the pineapple was pronounced. Overall: For taste, I'd give this place 4 stars and for the small proportions/price, I ultimately give it 3 stars. Still, happy to go for the occasional treat! read more

When I go to Moreton Fig, I often find myself standing at the bar with no one behind it, waiting long moments for a bartender to arrive and occasionally inquiring back with the hostess to make sure the bar is, indeed, open. What makes this worse is that I can peer into the kitchen, where waitstaff walking by might give me a quick smile and move on, leaving me to languish some more! That said, where Moreton Fig begins to redeem itself is with inventive dishes and fresh, seasonal ingredients. Some of the price points are high, others are more reasonable. I dream of the burrata, the glistening silk of cream within a mozzarella base that tastes of salt, olive oil, a faint grassiness. The burgers (veggie and angus) are decent but I'd venture to the more exotic offerings here, like the ahi tuna crudo with fennel pollen and orange powder. The chicken satay too is succulent and not a bit dry. Don't forget to explore the cocktail list, where you can sample a lemon verbena and gin concoction, a Pimms lemonade, or a bellini with a twist. Depending on the bartender, your drink may be delicious or overly strong, but at least it won't be piddling and weak. Overall, I love the ambiance of the this place, especially the beautiful outdoor patio, and I appreciate the the chef's attention to detail and quality ingredients. Service, however, could improve. Nobody likes to be ignored on multiple occasions for 10-15 minutes at an empty bar and if you're sitting in the lounge, it can take a good 15 minutes to get your check. read more

Bottom line (at the top): I hadn't been here since the first week they opened because I had a bad experience then, but they've completely redone the menu and it is very good now! -- I came here yesterday to have lunch with my entrepreneurship professor, a former USC trustee, and some classmates. I'm so glad USC hospitality created MF and put it in prime campus location. MF is your best option when you need to have formal lunches, but still want to be in a restaurant setting and in the middle of campus rather than at the university club and the edge of campus. However, it's still casual enough if you want to come by for lunch just because, or when you're sick of lemonade/CPK which in my opinion are the only two other options as far as Tutor center eats. They have completely redone their menu and it is very good now. Burgers, pastas, entree salads, and mains. Very short but still something for everyone. The bread basket is assorted but also comes with a great parmesan crisp. I had the salmon salad which had quinoa and a great Meyer lemon yogurt kinda sauce. No picture unfortunately which is such a shame because it was plated beautifully. The portion was quite small by American standards, but honestly was an amount you should be eating. I will definitely be here for dinner soon. Fight on, MF! read more

The first time I went here was a couple months ago with my parents. Like I mentioned in the McKay's review, this is another great place to take your parents if you are on or near campus. It's a more formal restaurant and has a nice ambiance. When I went there, I got a caesar salad and a burger. The salad was great and I ended up being bummed out that I was splitting it with my sister. The main reason I got the burger was because it was cheap. However, the burger was anything but. The meat was very tender and was delicious! I wish I could go here more often, but it is somewhat expensive. I would suggest convincing your parents to take you here and buy you a meal. read more

It's a rare and glorious day when you get to eat at USC's Moreton Fig under the age of 55. -Bread was oddly shaped, but delicious. -Pomegranate spritzers (y) -I loved the ahi tuna/avocado appetizer, especially with the wonton chips. -The entire sea bass dish was amazing, and the waiter was rightfully excited about the rice cake. -French fries were french fries and were meh. I'm not bougie enough to discern the taste of Kennebec potatoes vs. that of other types. In short: I would love to take my parents here if they were visiting campus... but only if they pay. read more

I came here with a close friend of mine last week for dinner and had an amazing experience. Our server was Joe and he was on point - knew every inch of the menu and drink list and provided me with a successful recommendation: the NY steak. Starters: Table Bread w/ Salted Butter - - The olive bread is served warm and has a distinct, creamy flavor. New England Clam Chowder - - The soup is not your conventional chowder. It has an herby "kick" to it. It is light and refreshing because it does not have a lot of flower in it. The crouton garnish on top blended into the soup and provided a welcome burst of flavor. Main Course: NY Steak - - I ordered this. The first bite was packed full of flavor that blended well with the garnish. I ordered it medium rare and it came just as that. The potatoes and asparagus were great as well. I will definitely order this steak again. 5/5 for sure. Burger - - My friend got the burger with avocado, American cheese and grilled onions. The meat was cooked to perfection and the fries were light and crispy. He said he really enjoyed it. I highly recommend this restaurant for all who are looking for a delicious alternative to the specialty and fast-food blur that surrounds the USC Campus. The setting is clean and aesthetically pleasing. The staff is very friendly and wants you to have a positive experience. read more

Great place to eat in the middle of campus and a perfect place to hold conversations! The service was exceptional and so was the taste of the TK's Buttermilk Fried Chicken sandwich I ordered. The cole slaw complimented the crunch of the fried chicken very well. Even though the fried chicken was made using chicken breast, it was surprisingly yummy and moist. The homemade potato chips that came with the sandwich had a nice crunch, but it was tad bit too greasy for my taste. Yes, the prices are bit on the pricey side ($15 for the chicken sandwich), but you definitely get what you paid for - nice ambiance and good food. DId I mention there's a free bread with parmesan crisp? I definitely have a liking for the parmesan crisp. read more

This place is upscale. Went here for a recruiting lunch so I wasn't concerned about the price, but I would never pay $16 for 3 tortilla chips on my own. Once you accept that you will be paying a lot, you can focus on their amazing dishes. My friend and I enjoyed sharing the steak frites and chicken. They're tasty but still leave you with room for dessert since the portions are small. Whatever diet you're on, forget it. Leave yourself a little room for some tart. It's worth it read more

Came in the other day for happy hour after class. Pretty awesome place to be on USC campus! We sat in the bar since outside was a little too cold for my liking although it was tempting to sit out under that big tree! We ordered off of their bar/happy hour menu. We all got drinks and 2 appetizers to split. The drinks were good. Nicely mixed, not cheap tasting at all. Fun options and not just a standard bar drink menu. Appetizers were ok. I liked the chicken wings, the veggie tempura was ok but the sauces they put with it were lacking. Food I think still has a few kinks to work out. I am excited to see how this place will be in a few weeks when they open for dinner. I was told mid-November. read more

Went here on a Wednesday for lunch at like 2pm with 2 others. Didn't think we needed a reservation because it's a USC restaurant at 2pm on a Wednesday. Color me surprised, when we walk into the not filled restaurant and are required to wait for 15 minutes or so before seating. The restaurant had seats! The food was pretty good, the bread was good, the service was friendly. Food took over 20 minutes to come out and the portions were not huge so we probably spent 30% of the time at Moreton Fig eating, versus waiting. No bueno, dawg. I got the steak and eggs which was aight but probably just settle for the burger and fries next time. Not strong enough to be worth the price. Maybe if I was a big wig, USC administration executive who can write off exorbitant meal expenses I would come here for midday drinks and expensive food, I would come here. But I'm not, so the deliciousness of CPK wins for me. read more

Just don't if you're a vegetarian. USC campus is very weak on vegan and vegetarian options so I figured maybe I'd give the "veggie burger" a try. The good: Lovely people, environment, ambiance, etc The Bad: ~$18 after tax/tip for a very bland almost potato pancake flavor and you'll leave wishing you'd just gone to Chipotle. read more

I hosted a 25 person event here and it went off beautifully. The server, Nick, was clearly dedicated just to us and he was wonderful & attentive. The managers came to check on us a few times to ensure that everything was to our liking. We were seated at a long table on the patio, which was a great setting and fairly private. The meal seemed to move seamlessly and they were quick to refill drinks or bring anything extra that we requested. At the end I was concerned we'd be over budget because a few guests ordered more alcohol than we planned, but I was thrilled to see that the whole experience was very reasonably priced. I will definitely come back to Moreton Fig for this type of event! ...and, the butterscotch pudding is to die for!! read more
