    Chicken earmuff with tortilla on the side
    Annabelle L.

    1st time coming to Linden, NJ location and it was pleasant visit. It's located right off route one and is next to a strip shopping area with shared parking spaces. The service was friendly but a bit slow. Good thing it was a weeknight and I'm the only one on the line around dinner time. The food was good and portion size is generous. I got their tofu bowl, brown rice, lettuce, corn and tomatoes, grilled onions and peppers, guac and jalapeño. I love their unlimited chips and their salsa bar area. They have different mild and spices to their salsa to meet with everyone's preference. The fountain drinks area has 100 different flavors or soft drinks which is cool.

    I ordered delivery through UberEats. It was my first time having Moe's and I was very happy with my meal. I ordered a chicken burrito bowl, it was very fresh, filling and came with a side of tortilla chips. I added guac at no extra charge. Lunch was under $10, I will be ordering from them again.

    Moe's is a blend of Chipotle and Baja Fresh. Have come to this location a few times, everyone is always friendly and they get you in and out quickly. Picked up a to go order today and enjoyed our meal. I tried the funkmeister steak tacos, one soft shell and one hard shell, and my husband got the earmuff burrito bowl. Don't really understand the naming convention here but it is what it is. The burrito bowl was really big, enough to eat from it twice. Two tacos were filling although I did enjoy the hard taco shell more than the soft shell taco. I filled both in exactly the same way to compare. The ingredients were fresh but I would probably try a different meat next time. The steak was a little chewy and wasn't too flavorful. The chicken looked decent so I might get that next time. Every dish here comes with a side of chips, which is a nice bonus. They have a salsa bar after you checkout so that you can get cups of sauce to dip your chips into. The salsa bar was neat and full and I loved how they had the to go containers neatly stacked so that you could easily bring salsas home with you if you are taking it to go. Thinking back I should have used some of that salsa on my taco! Nutrition info is available on their website which is neat especially because adding on toppings can quickly add up and you're not sure why. This was helpful for ordering. Plenty of space to eat inside but because the parking lot is shared with a few places it makes it a little hard to find parking sometimes. Not too bad though. It's a low key casual spot for lunch or dinner. Fun decor inside that takes it a step above doing fast food. It is a nice environment to casually eat here. Very clean place and lots of seats.

    Ever have a place you just like going to where it just feels comfortable? This is "MY comfort zone". The food is always good, they play good music, it's clean and the staff always yells "Welcome to Moe's!" - I know, it sounds corny, but sometimes, I want corny, I like corny! Don't get me wrong, the other Mo's I have been to are okay, but to me, the one in Linden, NJ is literally the best. They pay attention to detail, every detail: I have been there many times. There is an ambiance and friendly feeling here that not many places have. I'm a big guy at 6'2" 240lbs (I work out) and this is the only place I go to that gives me portions that fill me up. My favorite dish is "The Earmuffs". I pretty much double everything: steak, rice, beans, cheese, grilled onions, pico de gallo, cucumber, tomato, olives, guacamole, etc. "DID YOU BRING YOUR SPOON?" says David, one of the people I know that works there. "Yes I did, how's it going?" No one knows I bring a large Chinese soup spoon because I hate the little plastic ones, except David. I don't know if he's the manager or owner, but he should be. The guy is always doing something! Besides the really good food, I get as many sodas, free chips and salsa as I want! That's another thing that makes me happy. I know it's not a fancy restaurant, but due to the food, price, ambiance, cleanliness and attention to detail... This Moe's gets 5 stars!

    I love this place, and my granddaugher whose extra picky has to eat from here EVERY week..The staff is personable, and go out of there way to make you feel comfortable. Plus, I've lost 12 pounds with healthy alternatives on the menu! This is the fastest good food ever! I've even got my coworkers frequently eating lunch here! No complaints, great staff, good food, nice ambience, phenomenal music all on a working class budget!!! Thank you Moes !!! I've been here after 9, and there's been plenty of food and efficient staff...

    Second time going into a Moe's I don't think I'll ever return. Their nasty customer service and lack of cleanliness must be universal

Recently I decided to check it out again and I'm glad I did. Sometimes it's nice to see a restaurant update its interior, but in this case almost nothing has changed inside, but that's fine. The unique "bottle lights" in the ceiling, the dark wood and various tchotchke distributed throughout the restaurant really give it a whimsical feeling. The staff is super friendly, something that I remember from previous visits. During my most recent visit I was seated very quickly by the super nice hostess. My waiter came over a few minutes later and was super nice and I never felt neglected during my meal. The menu has changed dramatically since my last visit. I remember there being fish tacos that featured grilled fish (instead of battered and fried). I also used to enjoy having a vegetarian quesadilla but those are off the menu, replaced with a veggie burrito. The burrito is good but I preferred the quesadilla. I enjoyed my visit and I'm glad the quality of this place is still there (and it would explain the restaurant's longevity).

Plant Bingo was a blast! Because of the weather, the event had to be moved from the outdoor space into the main dining room. The acoustics weren't ideal, but the energy was high and everyone still had a great time. IT GETS WILD AT PLANT BINGO! (check my videos LOL) Menus are on tablets, which was a nice modern touch. The chicken quesadilla was an easy 5 stars. No complaints at all. My ticket included a complimentary house margarita, and it was delicious. The decor is a fun mix of Día de Muertos and '80s vibes, with colorful artwork, TVs throughout, and a large bar. Service was fast, although the bus staff was a little too attentive... they cleared my drink before I had finished it. All-in-all positive experience... I'd be open to coming back for dinner on a regular night.

Our server was very pleasant, but unfortunately didn't speak English at all so when my friend asked to pack up her food, they got rid of it instead. They gave back the charge receipt, but without the credit card and it took forever to get them back to the table. Overall, I liked it, but the end of our experience was not great. Quick update: my friend reached out to the manager because after throwing her away the offered to make her another but only sent her home with 2 ribs and the peppers without the chorizo that she didn't even touch our the veggies and plantains. We were stupid for not checking first for sure. She ate two of the three ribs so I don't even know where they got the second rib that they gave her. I'm assuming they remade them. The manager asked that she text instead because he didn't speak English and wanted to be able to use Google translate I'm bilingual so I understand the struggle, but not being able to speak to anyone including the manager in english is completely unacceptable, in my opinion. I really love this place and will always support local Businesses but after bringing in new patrons and having this experience I would not put my name on a recommendation for them again.
