“Really good food & affordable place to eat when you use your Moe’s app rewards. I hardly get takeout yet I was able to get a free soft taco and chips with different salsas and sauces with free guacamole to go using my app reward points last year & reward. I liked the new additional sauces they added. The service was great and they got me two samples of ranch sauce quickly since it ran out at the self serving area. The ambiance of the place was simple and clean. I came there late at night when they were near closing time (10 PM). was glad to get there in time. The free chips they gave with my taco were still delicious the next day and still good to eat after heating in the microwave. Actually they were the best chips I ever got from a Mexican food place. Will definitely visit this Moe’s more often. Cheers!“

My husband devoured his carne asada burrito before I could take a picture. The al pastor in my quesadilla was on point!

The seasoning on the meat was decent, and everything arrived hot to the table. I would go again and try something different.“
