    Broken dirty safety equipment
    Kris D.

    ** "Gotta" go to Moe's? ** Wow, terrible in just about every respect. To begin, at first look I just find the menu confusing... Weird folks' names as names of the items. More importantly, service was incredibly slow, the place was a mess, iced tea bin had no cover, and even safety equipment is broken and not maintained. (See pic). I'm used to the speed, cleanliness and efficiency of a Chipotle. "Gotta go to Moes?" I guess for some it is the only burrito place around and they have to, but no, I will not be back.

    This is the first time I visited this moes usually I go to the other one on Williston Road Where I have always had a wonderful experience! At this moes location in Williston nobody said welcome to Moe's when you came in and I waited in line for a very long time the service was slow I was disappointed that I didn't have the taco shell bowl to put my salad in but I was still charged the regular price ...just really disappointed

    Store was dirty. Kitchen was filthy and in a state of chaos. We were not welcomed to Moe's. Front line employees did not appear even slightly motivated. Employee who wrapped my fish taco cracked the shell. Could not tell which employee was running the show. No adults in evidence. They have one of those fancy coke fountains that will dispense any flavor of Coca Cola branded soda. Too bad it was broken, and they had no backup way of dispensing soda. We have a 10-month-old. High chairs are a cool design, but were disgusting. Straps need laundering and seat needs a good degreasing.

    lol ok

    i'm sorry but someone really served me this and thought yeah this is good LMFAO. nobody at this moe's cares at all the place is FILTHY. seriously drive the extra 10 minutes to the south burlington one everyone is friendly there and ... it's clean. i wish i could give this negative stars

    Tiny $15 burrito.

    Loved the burritos since I was a young boy. Service is fairly fast and the indoor area is nice.

    Sure, it's not authentic Mexican but haven't we all given up on that quest in Vermont?

    We stayed at the Essex Resort for the weekend and were looking for a simple dinner nearby when we…read morefound Mad Taco, just minutes away. It's a small spot with a classic mom-and-pop vibe, which we really enjoyed. We ordered the yam tacos and a chicken quesadilla. The service was friendly, though the food did take quite a while to come out. Once it did arrive, everything was very good and definitely hit the spot. Overall, we liked the food and would return. However, make sure to check your bill before leaving. We didn't notice until afterward that our total for tacos, a quesadilla, and two waters came to $44.02. My husband ordered his quesadilla plain and asked if the usual toppings (salsa, guacamole, and sour cream) came with it and could be put on the side. We were told they were included--but we were still charged extra for each topping, adding almost $5 to our bill. While the food and service were good and we'd go back, being charged extra for items that were supposed to come with the meal was disappointing. Just be sure to review your check closely so you don't end up with unnecessary upcharges.

I think this was the highest price to-date for a taco i've ever paid. And if you want anything besides the shell, protein and cilatro...it looked like it was another $5. This is obviously an unsustainable business model for a cheap street food.

It was a little hard to find at the roundabout but the signs pointing helped. Servers and hostess are exceptionally nice and do wonderful. I had a to go order and I was expecting more, but not the most authentic Mexican food. I got a veggie burrito and veggie quesadillas. It lacked a lot of flavor and spices. I wouldn't order anything again. I got a margarita while waiting for my food which came out really super quick after like 10 minutes.

My neighbors & I are woken by blaring contemporary music. I'm not a fan but let's be honest it's probably not considered the most banging music of all time. The car will be on its way soon & I can go back to sleep. Right? Nope! The music continues blaring, so I'm up now. I see a text from my neighbor. He's pretty unhappy and reports the music is coming from a food truck. One of the gentlemen in my building went outside to investigate where the music was coming from & discovered it's the El Gato Cantina food truck bumping his music from a sub. He says a guy working in the truck told him to eff-off. I guess contemporary music can be banging cuz it's certainly rocking my bedroom windows. And the people who vibe out to it aren't calm sweet souls. It's pouring rain, I get my dog suited up & we head outside for a morning wee. Upon walking outside I realize just how loud this sound system is & I decide to kindly ask them to turn down the music. Maybe a female will get a different response. I knock on the open front door. There's a man holding a broom. I ask "Can u plz turn that down, it's not even 9AM sir" This rude entitled jerk waves his hand at me as if I'm a gnat, and responds. " yeah yeah, get the F out of here." I respond with, "sir This is our neighborhood and you woke many of us up can u plz turn it down." I walked away. I have no desire to hang around to see what other profanity he's planning to throw my way. I waited a good 10 minutes or so and when the music kept blaring, I stood in front of his truck and called SAPD. He turned it down before the cruiser got there. But seriously? This is how your business treats our community? You expect us to want anything to do with your business? Honestly, stay in Burlington/Essex with that nonsense. Saint Albans at 7:30 AM on a Saturday morning is not the place for you. This business is not in it to serve our community. I highly recommend giving this food truck a pass.
