Food and drinks were good as always . I know Moe's is known for BBQ, but I really like the catfish. It's all ways crispy and the portion sizes are plenty. Can't go wrong read more

Dang good bbq. Wife had pulled pork sandwich. I had sliced turkey sandwich. Probably best turkey I've had....juicy-flavorful-seasoned well.

The food at Moes is always good. Not happy with the portions given the prices, but it's a better BBQ joint than most. Service was friendly and the place was well lit with a bar. We have been eating at Moe's from FL, New Orleans to AL, that how good the food is at every Moe's we've been to. read more

My wife and I were looking for a great dinner in a relaxed atmosphere. We originally went to a nearby deli where the music was blasting, packed and some guy wanted $5.00 bucks to enter. So we began seeking something more for us. What we found was Moes. After looking over the menu we selected a pulled pork sandwich, French Fries, Green Beans, Banana Pudding and Moe'd up by adding a quarter chicken. I'll start by saying my wife and I have catered for years, I have multiple smokers and have cook countless meals from hamburgers, hotdogs, brisket, pulled pork, green beans is a specialty, chicken in all kinds of ways. I say all that to say these guys absolutely know how to cook. The chicken was perfect, green beans amazing! One area many mess up is trimming the pork butt so the product is not to "rich" their pulled pork was just right full of flavor but not to fatty. I wanted to pair the BBQ with something tasty and was surprised they had a Kentucky Bourbon Ale (WOW! NICE!) frankly everything was perfect and I plan too visit another time before continuing our vacation. The only thing that took an edge off our evening was during the guitarist performance, my wife and I were singing along and watching "banana baseball" on the monitor. A young woman turned off the center monitor leaving the others on, it killed the mood so I closed my tab when I had planned to have another drink or two. Instead we ended the night. Please, I suggest to turn off the monitors before the music starts so there are no misunderstandings. Side note, Watching the antics of "banana baseball" along with live music was a hoot. Thanks again for a wonderful meal. read more

Solid 4.1-4.5 Star This is one of those places where they care about their meat and sides. Well made, great cooks on the meat, perfect quarter piece cuts, and great sauces. I'm not sure why it's lower than a 4 in all of the reviews, but from the Alabama BBQ I've had thus far on my trip around the state, this is in the more elevated flavor realm. When you perfectly cook the chicken and skin, it's hard to say it needs more. The quality is definitely there. The only thing I'd say it's missing is a little more smoky flavor, but, whatever you do, DO NOT change how that chicken comes out. Skin was lightly crispy, and meat cook point was perfect. Cole slaw, baked beans, and corn bread accompaniments were excellent. I'd make this a safe bet through my North American travels. There may be others out there to try, but this was a good decision for me. Great work! read more

Moe's Original Bar B Que - Half-Smoked 1/2 Chicken - Barbeque Near Me - Decatur, Alabama

Popped in before the Steve Earle show at The Princess on Sunday before Memorial Day. Told us upfront that they were out of ribs, catfish, & salad. And chicken was going to be a wait. We ordered turkey with slaw & Mac 'n cheese and pork with slaw & beans. Moe's is the only place where smoked turkey is juicy & good, not dried out like shoe leather. We love the marinated slaw ( similar to Full Moon BBQ). Mac 'n cheese was extremely salty, only ate half. Nice to have Moe's for the first time in a while since the location in Chattanooga closed and we haven't hit the one in Orange Beach lately. read more

The food was horrible. I order a bama sandwich with double fries and a sweet tea and everything was nasty. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to my dog read more

Always enjoy Moes in Decatur Good & consistent ribs & pulled pork + the sauce Good atmosphere for Decatur read more

Excellent turkey bbq, white meat yet moist. Pulled pork was good but nothing special. The sides were had were very good, cole slaw was fresh and had a unique flavor. The Mac and cheese and green beans were fine and the banana pudding with the nilla wafers was surprisingly good. I appreciated that they had beer Parking is limited but the music they had on was great. Pretty much self serve and nothing fancy interior but overall a good place for bbq read more

They were very nice group running the place, kid friendly... food was good and it was order and find a table.. no problem finding a seat at 4pm. Not sure about later. read more

Moe's Original Bar B Que - Brisket, macaroni and cheese, baked beans, cornbread, and peach cobbler - Barbeque Near Me - Decatur, Alabama

In town for a week on business. Just had lunch, the pulled pork sandwich (Alabama style) with beans and Mac n cheese. Really, really good. Good size portions and all homemade. It's rare for me to give five stars but I can't really think of a reason not to. Interior is clean and well decorated (except for the Roll Tide sign ). Attention to detail on the little things like keeping the sauces warmed is great. Good and friendly service. read more

Review done by @jaquantherealtor on all social media platforms I absolutely love coming here for quick lunch meetings or just when I'm at the office and need a quick bite! Regardless of what I order, it's always fresh. However, more importantly, the staff are very friendly! I also cannot complain about the sweet tea... which always seem to be just right! read more

I'm revising my review. Food has improved greatly since it opened. Had the ribs recently and the flavor was good. Tenderness above average. Raising to 3 stars. read more

Stopped in for real food during 3d Friday. Food vendor choice was pizza......so thought I'd give Moe's a second chance since the band was setting up for live music. Opted not to try to get a drink at the bar because you couldn't get anywhere close to it. Decided on the child's chicken fingers with mac-n-cheese because I wasn't super hungry. A friend added to sides so the total of the bill was $11.oo and some change which is HIGH for a child's size portion. Food came quickly, the chicken fingers where mostly breading and the chicken that was there was ropey and tough. The mac-n-cheese was good and the sweet cornbread was good as well but the price, it was less than average. Two strikes. read more

I live in San Diego and I've traveled the world, Moe's is still one of my favorite places. Every time I'm back in Alabama, Moe's is one of my first stops. Great food, great drinks, great service. Wish I had some redneck nachos right now! read more

Wonderful downtown find! Redneck nachos were mouth watering. This pregnant lady is going to be craving some bbq from Moe's!

Let me preface this listing by saying that I eat here a lot due the locations convince to my place of employment, and I genuinely enjoy the food. PRO: As I mentioned above, all food items are pretty good and some are great (the wings, for example). CON: Service generally is bad. Of the two ladies that typically work the front cash register, one is nice (sometimes) and the other is very rude all the time. CON: I feel like the food is a bit expensive for the portion size received, but this is mostly mitigated by the flavor. read more

Honestly who doesn't love Moe's! The staff Is always very helpful, they know us by name! Plus, queso never hurt anyone! read more

Food: The smoked chicken was ok and moderately moist. It was lacking smoke flavor. The sauce is pretty good both traditional and white. Atmosphere: Pretty cool bar scene with a decent selection of whiskeys for a BBQ restaurant. Staff: Bartender was nice it seemed full of usual customers so their time was taken up with them. read more

Love this place! Very laid back and friendly. Wings are delicious as are the sides. I LOVE there collard greens. Creamed spinach was the only side I'd rate three stars on. Nacho special is way awesome! We go here almost weekly. It is a little bit pricey but the portions are so big you can share. read more

The Food is AMAZING!! OH and the Banana pudding melted in my mouth.. To be welcomed and serviced by the awesome staff...All the way from Detroit Mi. This place is a MUST try when in Decatur Alabama read more

I have been to a lot of Moe's stores by now and this is a good one. The location, near downtown, is more akin a sports bar with a patio; there were so many TVs and a big outdoor seating area, very pleasant to spend a nice spring evening drinking and eating. The food, as I have come to expect from this chain, is solid if not exceptional. This is not a critique. It is reliably good but the brisket is leaner than I prefer, but that is the southern style. The sides of greens were tasty. Solid choice for reliable barbeque. read more

Wow. All I can say is wow. Food. Speed. Cleanliness. Wow. This place had it all. Had the wings and B. Stew with a pice of corn bread. Awesome. read more

This restaurant has the BEST food! I never post reviews, but I had to. The pulled pork was delicious and flavorful, all the sides were superb. If they have peach cobbler on the menu, then save room. It was the icing on the cake! I will always stop here when I'm traveling. read more

The food came by fast which was cool. But my friends paid 14 dollars for a small sandwich and two very small sides that weren't very good. One y friends in a near by table found BLONDE hair in his food. The more you ate it the more bland it was. It's overpriced for no reason. DISGUSTING. Better off paying 20 bucks at mellow mushrooms for a large pizza. read more

My friends & I go here all the time. I love this place! The staff is always very nice & friendly. The food comes to you fresh with a very pleasing appearance. The restaurant is always clean & smells great, even from the street. Everything is always consistent here. The outside bar is very nice. This is a great place to hang out & a fun relaxing atmosphere! Happy Outings! 0=} read more

Joe's is wonderful on good days but mediocre at best on bad days it appears. Food quality, temperature, portion size and seasoning is inconsistent visit by visit.... great location, usually clean & decent service at the counter but you rarely see staff on the restaurant floor to assist you in any meaningful way, though. read more

Reliably good BBQ and great location. Love their white sauce, especially paired with their turkey and pork. Their wings are good to be be from a BBQ place. All of their daily sides are delicious. I haven't found one that I didn't enjoy. If you're lucky enough to be there on a day they are serving boudin balls, get them. You won't be disappointed. By far their best side in my opinion. read more

Stopped by at 9:04 No Food. Their excuse is they ran out of food. This would never happen in NC. The poor Alabama BBQ not anticipating that they would have customers. read more

Stopped here on our way through based on prev. Yelp reviews. They had brisket listed as the special. It was a very small portion for the price...and burnt ends at that. Disappointing. Ribs were good. Also the baked beans were awesome. Marinated Cole slaw was really good. read more

Some of the people that take orders on the phone have extremely poor customer service, i.e. Camille So I just took my business to a nearby bar-b-q spot in Decatur read more

The best wings anywhere. They aren't too spicy, the seasonings accent the meat instead of covering up the meat. My usual is just a pound of wings, which translates into about 6-8 meaty wings. I'm a bit of a wing fanatic and these are my favorite. Only warning is that the interior of the restaurant seems to always be VERY cold. Because part of the front wall is Open Air, I guess it jeeps the ac pumping nonstop. But it's sometimes too chilly to even be comfortable. UPDATE: Im back to update after some additional time at Moes. Today I pulled up on a day when most everybody was off (day after New Years) and I had passed a half dozen places I couldn't get into, they were all packed. Curiously Moes was nearly empty? Hmmmm. They had a Rib Sandwich special so I ordered that. Sandwich was VERY small, the bun was so soaked in so much juice that the sandwich fell apart, and there were onions and peppers on the sandwich...who does that on a "rib sandwich" unless you're trying to hide that the sandwich is basically....pulled pork. I was expecting rib meat with some good smoky rib flavor, but it was nothing more than diced up pork smothered in bbq sauce and layered with onions and peppers to make it appear to be more. All in a frankly child sized sandwich. Really disappointing, especially considering it cost $10. Service was quick and that's about the only nice thing I could say, though it was no doubt quick because the place was so empty. I'm taking back one of the 5 stars I originally gave it. I still think Moes has the best wings available in Decatur, but I think I'll definitely have to stick to the wings if I return. read more

Moe's BBQ, has a cool place downtown. The BBQ is fair. My ribs had no smoke flavor and tasted boiled. My wife's pork was overcooked and mushy. The sides were good and like the downtown view. read more

I have been to Moe's several times and he service is always 5 star. I really like the out side bar. I usually get the wings. I would recommend this place to any one wanting a fun night out. read more

Best barbecue in town! Fun, relaxing atmosphere. Staff is always friendly and willing to accommodate. Highly recommend!

Food is super small for the price and not good. Went in for a late lunch and hardly no customers and I see why. My lunch was super small and everything that a side and a drink cost me 14.00 and I Left hungry no I left hangry. I hope they turn it around I hate to see another closed restaurant. read more
