Moe's Original BBQ - Vestavia Hills

First time at this place. I should have read reviews before I went I definitely would have food some place else to spend my lunch money. I was disappointed that I paid $9 for the bbq pork sandwich that was not tasty at all. I don’t know if they are running out of condiments but I had a 1/4 of teaspoon of sauce on my sandwich with all that pork. No napkins in the bag. I just felt robbed. I will not go back .

Definitely wanted to do a review of Moe's BBQ because I'm not been too big of a fan of Moe's BBQ and the reason is quite silly and that became apparent. There was one time a couple of years back that I'd ordered something and I didn't like it a bit. It wasn't undercooked or anything along those lines it just wasn't something I felt that I could have done and from that bad experience one time I've chosen not to go back and not that I refuse to go back but just hadn't gone out of my way to even think about going and today I went...
I let one bad experience as far as the food is concerned nothing else I let that dictate the remainder of my choices years later and first of all I was greeted the second I walked in the door by a guy named Miller that works here. He was working the bar where you order food and call in orders and as he's speaking with me he's got somebody on hold and somebody else calling and he was doing literally probably 15 things at once while making me, the person standing in front of him, his priority but yet not deprioritizing the other things that he was doing. So I'm sure that each person felt like they were just as important as the other while keeping his focus on the guy in front of him. So first of all that dude, Moe's you've done a good job hiring that guy and I would do and be willing to do whatever it took to keep somebody like him. You know people are really quick to let folks go that make a lot of money because you can save money by hiring folks that don't cost as much money... It happens everyday... However as Moses figured out, when you invest in your employees, you give them a good working atmosphere, you give them the freedom of communication, then you come out on top because when I walked in I knew I'd be back again prior to even eating the food that I didn't like in the first place because of Miller's attitude and the way that he was handling business it was great to see from an outsider walking in the kind of encouraging motions that he was showing and I'm sure him grateful for that and I wasn't going to dictate the entire being on just the food but my experience as a whole was absolutely phenomenal. From walking in seeing him running around like a chicken with his head cut off while not avoiding or ignoring me. I was the priority but yet he was getting other things done so first of all let me say to whoever is reading this, Miller is one of the folks that is worth having around no matter what the price tag of his efforts may be. So thank you to Miller!

Secondly from the time I walked into the time I walked out every single aspect was perfect, the place smelled strongly a barbecue, as it should. The floors were clean it wasn't dirty there wasn't trash stowed anywhere The tables were bust although there were people at it So it wasn't like they were foregoing anything. From the little things like grabbing a cup so that the table looks clean all the way down to the customer service, this place nailed it and I don't know if I've ever been to another place that nailed all the small things. So thank you for a wonderful experience, and a big shout out to Miller, keep up the good work dude you don't see that very often and these days all you got to do for a job is just show up, can't get nobody to show up but you not only show up but you show out, I'm certainly glad that they got you and the reason, at least one of the reasons why that business is successful is because of attitudes like yours. So thank you to that guy!

i walked in and rang the doorbell like it asked me too no one came to take my order. the only 2 workers that I saw were sitting outside chatting while they watched me go inside. On my way out I asked them if they were open, they said yes, and that they’d take my order in a few. I said no big deal i’m already leaving. they clearly did not care about me as a customer. so safe to say i won’t be back.

Solid location for the regional barbecue chain. Went for lunch at noon on a Saturday and it wasn't very busy, but it did pick up with a lunch rush around 12:30. Extensive covered patio with TVs for those who want to eat outside. Make sure to check the board for specialty sides not listed online. Appreciated that a couple of the possible sides are more dessert oriented, too. Staff were very friendly, and good was ready fast!

Ordered two pulled pork platters, one with macaroni and Mississippi Mud, the other with macaroni and baked beans. Pork was great, with a nice house sauce. All sides were very good, and the cornbread was dense, almost like a polenta or hushpuppy dough, but still tasty.

A buddy of mine lives in the area and had been raving about this place for weeks prior to our trip to the Birmingham area. We went for a late lunch and got the loaded nachos with pork, 24 wings, and three sides. The wings with the Alabama white sauce on her side are a big hit. He loaded nachos were exactly that, and delicious with thick cut potato chips. The sides also did not disappoint.

Our food came out cold! Not cool.. cold. Then I remembered that’s why we stop going to this place. It’s a shame too because the bbq is good. We got there at 11:30 and the food was served cold! We spent $75 for 3 for lunch. We won’t go back. The way the economy is restaurants should strive for quality. But nope!
