Location shares parking lot with shops. Not the best but not bad. Food quality is okay. Seating is good. Drink fountain is always out of half the drinks. This location gets a 1 star because I tried to eat here more times than not, with issues. They are either not taking walk ins and only doing online. Out of some kind of food or something. Staff changes a lot. And was a hit or miss if you got friendly or a "I don't want to be here" vibe. Sadly just not well managed but to be expected in a college town. read more

Very good food and I love enjoy it everytime I'm there and have nothing but positive things to say about the staff

I love this place!! The service is always great! Salsa Bar selection is They need to put one in Altoona. read more

Moe's Southwest Grill - Chili Crisp Chicken delish!!!!! - Tex-Mex Near Me - State College, Pennsylvania

The customer service is consistently horrible everytime I come here. The workers are incredibly passive aggressive. I feel reprimanded for asking simple questions about additional charges. On top of that I'm often one of the only customers in the store and they'll still forget to give me my sides. read more

Extremely dirty tables, floors, soda machine. The rice was a mush of rice and the food was not fresh.

Waited 30 minutes for my phone order. Finally I got in line behind people that had showed up after us, they pulled my order from the bottom of a stack of paper bags. They were putting new phone orders on top of mine as I watched them do it... they finally gave me my food. I took it home and The rice was sooooo undercooked it was crunchy. All of it. Very disappointing. I called them to let them know and they didn't seem to care. read more

The sign claims they are open until 9 but don't bother trying if it's past 8:30. I actually like this place however I have an issue with them saying they are open until 9 but then actually closing early. I can't tell you how many times I've thought I had time to grab something to go (I would never sit down that close to closing) only to get there and realize they have closed early again. I wonder if they try not to pay people for clean up and that's why the staff is always booking it out of there. At any rate they should probably change their hours, I'm not the only person who tried the door this evening. read more

Not as bad as everyone's review is making it to be. Staff is friendly and food is solid.

Absolutely filthy inside - tables, floors , silverware area, and salsa bar had more salsa on the floor and outside of containers than inside of containers. Trash can inside looked like it should have been setting by a dumpster out in the back somewhere. Chips were chewy and seriously stale. soda machine didn't work and no ice either. Guessing they didn't have enough help when we were there. Shut the place down for an hour to clean it and then re-open . Not sure how the manager permits them to be open in that condition read more

Firsts things first I didn't even want to give them a one star they don't deserve it. Not sure the chicks name but she had something up her ass. I paid for my food and stood there waiting for it as she checked out the guy behind me. I asked why she hadn't handed me my food yet because I already paid and I could see it just sitting there. She screamed "JUST GIVE ME A SECOND" as if I had asked for my food in a rude way. When she gave the other guy his food she holds up my bag in the air and screams again "HERE YOU GO" I walk up to get it I don't say thank you and once again she screams in the most petty way ever "HAVE A NICE ONE". Why work in customer service if you can't just pretend to be nice for a few hours!!? read more

The ground beef tacos were horrible tasting!!! Only the free chips and salsa were O.K. read more

Yikes. I usually go to Moe's when I'm out of town, but this one gives you diarrhea. I was babysitting some kids and they got the shits from eating here. My guess is it's not the food, but the sanitation. read more

hotter then hell thought i was gonna need an ambulance to take me out that bitch. it was so hot i almost passed out from a heat stroke, shit pouring out my ass as I'm typing this. read more

Nice easy dinner with 2 of my kids. They've never been but loved it. We all had burritos (junior size for the boys) with chips and queso. I ventured into several salsa selections but the kids didn't. The pineapple salsa is delicious and just a touch spicy. The only disappointment was they did not yell "welcome to Moe's" when we walked in. Oh well. Regardless, we shall return. read more

This meal was meh. The atmosphere matched. Staff seemed underwhelmed. Brought 10yo for lunch. The kids burrito was def a good portion for him, but he said it lacked a "kick" that he was looking for. My burrito bowl also lacked flavor/spice/heat. The queso here is good. Next time we will try someplace else. read more

Average food...but the WORST service! No greeting, no smile...just a rude condescending stare like the server was doing ME a favor. I ordered one of the most expensive items on the menu and he barely gave me a half scoop of chicken! I said something about the small portion and he gave me major attitude! Such bulls$&t! I called him on his behavior and he then threw in a full scoop of chicken. If this guy doesn't like his job, he should just quit and don't treat customers like crap! Maybe this explains why there was only one other person in the restaurant. They won't have to worry about me ever coming back... as I bet I'm not the only one that experienced this lousy service..even Taco Bell next door treats their customers better.. and charges way less for the same food quality! read more

Moe's is always consistent. Friendly service from the time you walk in the door until you leave. When you walk in, you walk to the counter to start your order (I always get the earmuffs and a side of queso - their chips are AMAZING and always warm). You pick your toppings as you go down the line and then pay at the end. There are no servers/waitstaff and I've watched others leave their trash lay - please pick up after yourself people! Quality, freshness of food and friendliness of staff is always top-notch and the fact that you pick out what toppings go in your food, if it's not good then it's your own fault really. read more

Moe's Southwest Grill, State College, Pa - US This is a cheap kind of meal place. There is a broad variety of dishes, mainly because you can build your quesadilla/bowl however you want. The three meals was 21 dollars, not bad! Also, on the side, there is a small console with sauces such as tomatillo, green tomatillo, pico de gallo, spice sauce. read more

See all

I was there tonight Sunday, December 13, a heavyset girl waited on us and she was very unpleasant. We got there well before they closed and they had about a tablespoon of pulled pork left and said they didn't have anymore. They didn't have any of the ranch dressing that we like. They also didn't have any tofu left. Of course we didn't notice that until we started putting together our bowls. I paid two dollars for a queso sauce, and she literally put like a teaspoon of sauce on my bowl. When she put on the lettuce she actually flicked it onto the salad with a gloved hand, and then did the same thing with the onions, she was clearly not happy where she works. Normally we love Moe's but after tonight I don't know if we will ever go back. read more

It was completely dead and I had to ask questions over and over due to the people not caring to respond to my question and acting dumb founded. Like come on you're at a restaurant working pay attention to the customers who are needing help (like us) read more

I never write reviews but I have ordered too many times from this place and my order is always messed up. The first time there was a mistake we had ordered 4 bowls. 3 meats and one tofu, we received 1 tofu, 1 chicken and the other two did not have any meat. The second time we ordered 3 bowls and none of them came with the meat we ordered. Today it happened again. 3 bowls, one was supposed to be tofu and 2 steak. We received the tofu and the rest had no meat. How do you charge me for meat every time but forget to put the meat. This was my last time ordering from this place. read more

Today I finally took my boyfriend here for his very firstMoe's experience. I was sad when I didn't get the, "welcome to Moe's" greet when I walked in. So that's why I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars. Update: I have leftovers and I ate my leftovers while taking a soak in the tub. Best way ever to eat leftover Moe's, especially when you're lactose an tolerant. It's worth all the suffering from the Queso. read more

The food is fine but would it kill them to clean the tables, lobby, or drink, salsa area. The staff have watched me clean my own table before. It's just gross. This is my last trip. Correction- just sitting here on 2/2/19 and saw an employee wipe off the top of a trash can then wipe off a table. read more

We received a coupon for free burritos so we did take out on a Friday night. This place is mediocre at best. First, the menu is confusing if it's your first time. We obviously wanted burritos, but they have weird names that indicate no difference between the burritos. Then, they didn't ask whether we wanted white or whole wheat tortilla. What really bothered me was how sloppy they make the burritos. They don't strain out the juices of the meat and beans enough, that the burrito itself is way to soggy to eat. A little moist is good, I like moisture, but wet is hard to eat and kind of yucky. They literally just slap on the ingredients with no care. They don't spread the meat around so half the burrito had meat, the other didn't. I came up with spots that had a mega dose of guac, and the rest had none. It's not appetizing. And the guy had to ask my husband three times what meat he wanted, and made a mistake on the kind of beans he wanted. Seriously, listen up and use your brain. Down the assembly line, a different guy finished off our burritos and carelessly asked if we wanted anything else in our burrito. Well, what other toppings do you have?! It's just so half assed and no sense of service. I expected more from a national chain. They need to train their employees better and actually make their food better, if they have a motto of good meats and fresh ingredients. Giving us free burritos backfired on them, I won't be back. read more

Moe's is a new addition to Happy Valley. Now, we already have a Q'doba and a Chipotle so why is Moe's a big deal? This place is BRIGHT when you walk in, very reminiscent of Tijuana Flats (totally miss that place!), it makes you feel like you are in. College Union Center. It's just a nice place to be in. As you walk down the queue, the first issue pops up. The food board, or menu is EXTREMELY confusing, especially to first time visitors. Nothing is laid out well. It was especially frustrating to non adults. The next issue arises when you try to order. As you are trying to decipher their menu, the workers in the store all scream "Welcome to Moe's!!" Every time someone comes in. I get the schitck, CiCi's Pizza did it, but better. There was a ton of confusion trying to get the orders out and in order but once you received your food, the story changes. My bowl, whatever it was called was amazing. Great flavor, not too spicy, and very large portions. They didn't skimp on the toppings either. It was nice seeing more than 4 slices of black olives on the bowl. The main reason why I'm giving this 4 stars, is because this is a new location and there will be mistakes and confusion. I will revisit this review and update it next time I eat there. read more

I have to say that the service I received today was atrocious. I had ordered online with the intention of picking up my order relatively promptly. A five minute wait would've been fine, but I waited for my order for 32 minutes! What's worse is that walk-in customers who arrived after me received their food orders before I did! I feel like they should've prioritized online orders, especially ones that were already significantly overdue. To top it all off, I never received any apology from the employees or at least saw them take any concern that I had to wait as long as I did. The food itself was standard, but for the reason of service alone, I would seriously reconsider coming to this Moe's ever again. read more

It's still a freshman restaurant for this area, being open for only two weeks, but the food is incredible for Mexican fast food and reasonably priced. My fifth visit already, I can't seem to stay away. Welcome to State College, Moe's! I had to append my review and drop stars after eating a burrito that had an ingredient in it that was past its expiration. I ended up getting the runs and it's my own fault because I continued eating it, trying to ignore the smell and the taste thinking maybe I was just off. But no, it was nasty. I think it will be awhile before I return. I can't shake that smell and taste even days later. read more

This is by far my favorite place to get the crunch wrap supreme. It always taste delicious especially the beef. The salsa bar is superb!

Love Moe's, wish the staff would be mode friendly, I have said thank you and have a good night to staff as I'm leaving and they ignore the customers read more

It was an ok place to grab a bite to eat. It was a $, but a high $, like, $9 for essentially either a burrito or a nacho and no drink. I would imagine that most tickets are under 10, but that about 25% are over $10. Filling enough, but not worth the 2x price from Taco Bell. The menu is deeply confusing and I think self-indulgent. Essentially, I think, what you buy here is: a small or large; with low price meat, high price meat, or vegetarian. And with or without guac. And choice of base. The rest is self-indulgent nonsense. You might as well just go the counter and answer: large or small, type of meat, quac? and thing you want it on, tortilla, tacos (soft or hard) or chips. I think they would help you out. Service was basically fine. The salsa bar is ok. nice almost. almost worth another star. as for atmosphere, I would choose 'bright airport foodcourt'. I could see going back, but would not particularly look forward to it. I could see giving it a 3 star 'meh' or a 2 star "A-Ok it won't crush your soul so go if someone else wants to go", so for clarity, I chose the 2-star. read more

Right in my favorite plaza less than a few miles from PSU's campus, Moe's has been a great addition. They have amazing food and their employees get better at their jobs everyday, considering the place is barely a month old. They treat their customers with respect, try to answer any questions, and really accommodate me when I come into the store. I always feel like I order something different at Moe's considering their vast array of fresh ingredients.. which is probably why I return so often. Their chips come free with every meal and really add to the overall benevolence of the place. High recommended, you'll probably see me there! read more

My sister, her boyfriend, and I all went to Moe's on Father's Day for a late lunch. There weren't many people in the restaurant and everything seemed to be pretty clean. Almost all of our food was great (I had a quesadilla, my sister a stack, and her boyfriend a bowl) but we got a small guac to share and it was horrible. I've made guacamole a thousand times and this stuff was just overly salty and disgusting. The reason I am writing this review however isn't because of the food itself but mainly because of the staff working. I went up to the counter girl just to let her know about the guac in case of someone else complaining to them... I FIRMLY stated I was just trying to be nice and the girl named Ashley looked at me, grabbed her stomach, and said even if it's salty I'll eat it! ......... It was super inappropriate and she didn't do anything about it other than make a mockery of the situation. I found this to be ridiculous from someone just trying to LET THEM KNOW and HELP THEM OUT in case someone else complained. The proper thing to say is say "thank you" instead of "I don't care I'll eat anything" ITS NOT YOUR GUAC TO EAT. read more

Ordered online to be ready for pickup. Went in and order was not ready... it wasn't even started. D t wait 15 minutes for it. Not happy. Then... the meat portions on several occasions have been very very sad. Very little meat. Chipotle gives WAY more. The one thing I love about here is the guac and chips are free and that's hat keeps me coming back. But they do need to give a little more meat. read more

This used to be one of my favorite places. But it is no longer vegetarian-friendly. The employees push the meat down with their hands, then proceed to put their meat-covered gloves in everything else, like the rice, cheese, lettuce and onions. So there's a good chance anything you order has at least some meat in it. If this is brought to their attention, they will simply argue with you and talk about you to each other once they think you have left. Once they realize you have caught them talking about you, the "manager" will come over and inform you that anytime you eat there, there is a chance of cross-contamination and there's nothing they can do about it. This was never an issue for years when they used scoops and spoons, but I guess they no longer care. read more

I was excited about the prospect of a place on this end of town, that (at least in part) supports sustainable farming, cooks their meat and vegetarian dishes separately, offers organic tofu, and where I could easily grab a burrito with the kids. However, two out of the three times we've visited this Moe's (one take-out, two pick-ups), they have messed up our order. Our second time there, our burritos ordered without cheese and salsa, came with both ingredients mixed in, and our tacos ordered without salsa came with lots of salsa. **Note: When a toddler says "No pico de gallo", thou shalt not attempt to feed the toddler pico de gallo unless you have an ark handy. On our third visit, my burrito ordered with extra lettuce came with zero lettuce, and a burrito ordered with cheese, came without cheese. I checked the bags each time, and the order was accurately taken, just not so much with the execution... The atmosphere led us to carry-out on our first visit (initially, we had planned on eating there), and to order take-out from then on. It's really loud and I just can't deal with the non-stop yelly nature of the place. (IMO, "Welcome to Moe's!" gets really old after five minutes, but that's just me and I get that some people might like that sort of thing.) So there you have it...that's been my experience so far. I am probably willing to revisit this place again in a few months after they've had a chance to work out all the kinks. I'll update my review when I do, and hopefully be able to add some stars! read more

Moes is a great place to grab a quick bite to eat with lots of ingredients/options. I was in a rush today so I decided to order ahead on the app. Didn't realize the ingredients that I ordered would be taken more as a suggestion than actually put into my dish. Normally, Moes is consistent and I always get what I ask for, but I don't think I will be ordering through the app again. First off, I ordered a chicken salad but when I got my salad there was no chicken... Not convenient especially when I paid to get the chicken on there and not for just a veggie salad. But I figured whatever no big deal. As I continued to eat my salad I realized they also didn't put the cheese on that I asked for and they put it in a crispy shell which I specifically checked I didn't want. At the end of the day it was still a good tasting salad and it was a lot of food just wish I got what I ordered. read more

Good, fresh Mexican fast Food. I had a chicken burrito. My husband had a chicken bowl. You pick all the extras you want. All orders get a free side of chips. Different heat levels of salsa available on a bar. Food is not very spicy unless you add hot salsa. read more
