“I did not have a super memorable visit. However, I also think that this location does not deserve as low a review as it seems to have. It was sufficient, clean and the staff during my visit were polite. It was a convenient place to stop on a road trip.“

“I'm from the Chicago area and am here visiting my daughter. Looking at the Google reviews, noticed San Jose.
Four of us went and we each really enjoyed the meal. Enjoyed it enough that we went for 2nd time a few days later.
Scrumptious, well done food all around.

Parking: Lots of parking but the place was very busy when I was there so spots were sort of limited. That's a good problem.“

“I had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant!

Customer Service: The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive from the moment we walked in. They made sure we were comfortable, checked in on us regularly, and were always ready to accommodate any requests. It's rare to find such genuinely warm and welcoming service these days.

Food Quality: The food was absolutely delicious! Every dish we tried was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The ingredients tasted fresh, and you could tell that a lot of care went into the preparation. The presentation was also top-notch, adding an extra touch to an already fantastic meal.

Overall, this place exceeded my expectations in every way. I can’t wait to return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience!“

“My name is Cleveland Ivory. I've been eating at this taco truck ever since they first got established. I love the food, they give you A good amount of meat no matter what kind of entree your ordering. Awesome customer service and this is the best authentic Mexican food that I have ever eaten. When I was in the military I used to love eating Mexican food when I was in California and this is even better than some of the street food that I have eaten when I was in California. I recommend their food to anyone in the surrounding area as well as for those who may have to drive 30 minutes or an hour to get there. Trust me, it is worth the drive and the food is awesome.“

“I can’t say enough great things about this establishment! Yes, the food is good. It’s Moe’s! What I’ve been blown away with is the impeccable service and friendliness of this establishment! Bryan Raymond is the epitome of what a great manager should be! He’s super friendly and always attentive to his customers. He is well respected by his crew and leads them with excellence. Quite frankly, he’s the hardest working manager I’ve encountered, anywhere! I hope the ownership takes account of the rockstar they have in Bryan!“

“My gf and I stopped in around lunch on our way to Charleston. We went inside to take a break from being in the car and to use the restroom. The facilities were very clean.
The older lady working the counter was great and incredibly personable.
I ordered just a bean burrito, and it was good. ( it's taco bell, I'm not expecting my mind to be blown)
Overall pleasant experience and the older woman at the counter deserves a raise! We loved her!“
