Step 1 order anything with queso Step 2 make sure you get queso Step 3 savor the queso I stopped in for a late lunch. I ordered a bowl with both rice options, black beans, white and dark chicken, grilled veggies (peppers and onions), pico, cheese, pickled jalapeños and cilantro. The game changer here is the jalapeños. The bowl came with chips and I did a meal which comes with a medium drink and side of queso. All of this for a little over 15 dollars! read more

Moe's Southwest Grill - Moe Protein Bowl - Mexican Near Me - Normal, Illinois

The service was great! The food was horrible. The quality of the steak was poor and tasted cheap. The chicken tasted like microwaved mystery meat. I literally threw it in the trash. I like that it comes with free chips though! The price is fairly pricy for the food to be so cheap tasting. read more

I could like this place more if the food wasn't so so salty. I tasted big hunks of salt in the guac, like someone forgot to thoroughly mix it. Go easy on the salt! The chicken and beans are already salty. The chips were stale the last 2x I came here. Friendly staff and the queso is good - again no need to add more salt to that either! Go easy on the salt man! Lots of us have high BP! One last thing: a little too cold in the place. Food gets cold too fast. Check that a/c temp so it's cool not freezing! I still like this place! Hoping to love it someday soon! :-). Will add more stars if they cut the salt in half and correct the indoor temperature. I will run, not walk to this place again soon. read more

so cold you cant enjoy your lunch because you're shivering. bathroom is so gross. toilet seat broken. staff couldnt count change and got fed up waiting and left $3.27 behind because the cash register stalled out mid transaction during lunch rush. all in all, worst moe's experience. read more

GM should learn how to do his job. Put basically 3 tomatoes on my bowl to over compensate the less than handful of steak bc he ran out and just didn't want to get more read more

Came in and thought I would have a steak burrito bowl. Ordered it and it was so salty I couldn't eat it. Picked at it for 5-10 minutes. They added a lot of salt when they cooked their steak. Not coming back for while. It will have to be somewhere else if I want a bowl. Guys' I'm not a picky eater and I couldn't eat it. Left 95% in the trash. Gross. Two stars for the raspberry ginger ale. read more

Portions in Taco Tuesday were surprisingly small, and didn't have as much flavor as in the past. We'll be back though!

I WON'T BE BACK. I came in because they had an outside cafe are to eat at. They have a nice menu. They have friendly service. They have yummy food. They have those cool mix your own flavour soda machines. They have a sign on the door telling people to wear masks. What they don't have is anyone enforcing it. Apparently customer health is not as important as making a buck. read more

Usually I like Moe's food a lot. Fresh and consistent. Great when traveling because you know what you are getting. We decided to go here while passing through on our way back to STL two weeks ago. However, this place had an absolutely filthy kitchen which you can see as a customer. I was really surprised. Food was barely edible. Queso had a hard film on it. I ordered food made with corn tortillas on the menu and was given flour. Unfortunately I'm gluten intolerant but ate the inside and hoped for the best. If I wasn't starving I would have just thrown it in the trash and walked out. If this place is owned by the company they need to replace the manager. If a franchise, you need to step it up. read more

We're big fans of Moe's and have eaten in many different locations. Usually the service and the food at Moe's is great. Such is generally not the case at this location in regards to the service. We've eaten at the location in Bloomington, IL on many occasions and everything is usually spot-on. The Normal location, however, lacks in the Service department. There isn't much of a sense of urgency in the staff, they seem to be less friendly than those at other locations, and they don't tend to pay a lot of attention to the condition of the dining room. On a recent visit one of the trash containers was full. Not just full, but FULL...as in people we setting their trays and trash ON the container because there was no room IN the container. Two of the salsa containers on the salsa bar were empty, and the floor looked like it hasn't seen a broom in hours. To be fair, the food tasted great and the service was efficient (if not rushed). We love the menu at Moe's, and their Monday and Tuesday specials can't be beat for $5. If they could only pay a little more attention to the front of the house I'd have gladly given them a better rating, and we'd more willing to visit more often. read more

Good burritos. The concept is pretty much the same as Qdoba and Chipotle. Except that Moe's includes a side of crispy chips with their entrees. They also have a sauce bar with different salsas that you can try. It seems that the past couple times I've been there, the food has not been as hot as I'd like - temperature-wise. Moe's has frozen margaritas that are good and pretty strong, surprisingly. We were there on a Thurs. night and they had 1/2 price margarita pitchers for like $6 (our good deal of the day!) and we were sufficiently toasty after finishing it! All in all, when I crave Mex, my go tos are still Herradura or Taqueria El Porton. read more

This location is filthy and gross! I refuse to order from a place that charges ME to use THEIR app! I called corporate to express my feelings ... they don't care. Now, Moes's get's 100% of $0 from me. read more

Pretty much the exact same as Qdoba and Chipotle, but they give you unlimited free chips and salsa. They also have whole grain tortillas and tofu (which my wife likes). The best thing about Moe's is the green Tomatillo Salsa. It is made fresh in the store, and it is delicious. I'm not big on chains, but this one is an exception. read more

Usually a great place to go. Love the one on the other end of town but this one is terrible. The building is extremely dirty. Plus we asked them to throw some shredded cheese on top of our free chips for our 4 year old. They charged us 8$ and called them "veggie nachos." When we challenged them on this they told us that's how we ring things up. Won't be back at this Moe's probably ever. read more

Every time we come in here, everyone is greeted with smiling faces. Very rarely is there a line, that might be due to our timing or the quick work of these fantastic employees. The shift manager, Courtney, is always pleasant; even in the face of stupidity and self righteous customers who feel that the world owes them something. Our orders are always delicious and this is my flavorite Moe's. The End. read more

if you want a good experience at moes take the extra 10 minutes and drive down to the east empire establishment. shells were cold, put white rice instead of brown. this was the first time i have not been able to finish a burrito in years, though it was much smaller than normal burritos. read more

I waited in line starving for 15 minutes while I waited for an associate to wrap my burrito that looked something like a mixture of cream of cheddar soup, beans, corn, and tomatoes on a tortilla. I paid $20 for two creations which would be ideal at any other Moe's location. Please drive the extra 15 minutes and do not come here, or bring a ladle to dish out your burrito. read more

Good food, fresh. Always done right. I only gave it 4 stars because it's *pricey*...for a salad, drink...(chips included at no cost btw)...my bill, with tax, came out to be $9.88...! But, the service is great and the food is fantastic. So it's worth coming in for. The quality of their food is why I'm willing to pay this much. If they ever start putting fillers, dyes, or preservatives in their food tho...I'm never coming back... :) read more

So I love Mo's. But i have to say this location is subpar...and not because the food isn't good like mo's normally is. The store is just a mess (see attached pics). And the workers were less than friendly--no one was over the age of 20 and clearly no manager on duty. read more

The ingredients are always fresh and the food never disappoints, but I still have to give it a 3 for high prices. It's got the same type of cuisine as Chipotle and Q'doba, though more options than the former and better food and atmosphere than the later. There are different names for the usual, but I go with the chicken tacos. I've also tried the steak quesadilla (decent), but I'm stubborn once I've found a favorite at places around town. Make sure you get a cup of queso for the tortilla chips, it's delicious. Tips: Sometimes on campus they give out coupon books that usually include one or two for Moe's. It's worth using them. read more

We go to Moes because the food is delicious. However today's visit was terrible. The store here at 195 was tore up from the floor up. Lacks a daisy manager as well. Floors trashed tables dirty salsa bar trashed out of ice out of soda chips on the floor behind the counter. The bathroom was a disaster. Overall the taste of the food is not enough to keep me coming back. Chipotle maybe my choice from now on. read more

By far WAY better then Chipotle and Qudoba. Their burritos are amazingly delicious. I get the same thing every time (a burrito with Chicken, Cheese, Lettuce, and Sour Cream) and although there isn't much on the burrito itself, it never fails to impress. I'm not sure about the other meats that they offer, but the Chicken is always very flavorful and even a bit salty, but I very much enjoy it. They have discounts on certain days and Monday is a good day to go if you're a burrito lover. They also have coupons in the Pantagraph, so keep your eyes open for ways to save. read more

Normally like Moe's but this was the dirtiest Moe's I have ever seen. The food line was a dirty mess and it looked like the containers had not been washed. The drink station was covered in dust and food. Underneath the coke machine was absolutely horrendous. Floors were unswept, bathroom was dirty and it smelled like dirty feet. I am not exaggerating. Absolutely disgusting. read more

My first time at Moe's today. Pretty decent. Like Chipotle or Qdoba's hipper, cooler cousin...or maybe a wannabe hipper, cooler cousin. They belt out, "WELCOME TO MOE's" periodically when people walk in the door. The guys behind the counter that were making the burrito's were somewhat peculiar with responses, but didn't know if that was part of their niche. They have this state of the art interactive touch screen soda machine. Pretty gimicky and gets annoying after a while (to wait in a line as people fidget and look and pick their drinks). The guy behind me asked me if I knew where their soda machines were...and I pointed to the front of the line of where we were standing. The germaphobe in me was hesitant to touch the screen with all the slimy fingerprints, but the nerd in me was like, cool, just do it! At the end of our meal, I had tried 3 or 4 different drink combinations. So that was fun. But the food was just okay. Atmosphere is pretty nice...bolder, cleaner atmosphere than Chipotle or Qdoba...but since I live closer to the latter, don't foresee many visits to Moe's, unless we're in the area and out of eating options. read more

I decided to visit Moe's today while I waited for my tires to be rotated at the tire place across the way. It was about 2:20 pm, so well beyond the lunch hour. As I approached the counter and glanced at the food to decide what to order, I noticed that the entire "kitchen" was a filthy mess. There was food all over the place, on the counters, floor, etc. At least a third of the food containers (beans, rice, steak) were empty. There were packages, boxes, food wrappers everywhere. The garbage receptacle had salsa smeared all over it. The floors were dirty. It was disgusting. There were only 2 workers in the place, but it wasn't busy. I have never been to a more disgusting restaurant. I love Moe's, but will not visit that gross place again. read more

I had really high hopes for this place, but was a little let down. I loved that they have the stacks which are like the Taco Bell crunch wrap supreme. And they have tofu as an option. And chips and salsa are free. They had a lot going for them, but the quality and flavor just wasn't there. The tofu had no flavor so my stack tasted like nothing. The salsa wasn't any good either. The one positive is they have $5 burrito and drink Monday's which is a really good deal so if I went back I would go for that. Otherwise, I don't see myself going there wit the other fast casual Mexican options out there. read more

Burritos are okay but not as good as Chipotles. We usually come here when they have a BOGO coupon deal on the entrees. They give you chips w/ the entrees but not as much meat as Chipotle (overall burrito comes out smaller than Chipotle ,also). Although I've never had them, they have fajitas. They also offer beer and frozen margaritas. read more

Been here in Normal IL for over an year and have tried this local now than two dozen times. Avoid all cost. Can get you order right from the get go. Then it looks like shit once you get it. Really we eat with our eyes not just our mouths. I am glade that there are not any of these in wisconsin. I will not be returning to any Moe's ever! Stay away at all cost. read more

Moe's is a great place for burritos and quesedillas. It is absolutely better than Chipotle and they have a much better selection. This particular Moe's is not as good as others in terms of friendliness and how enthusiastically they say 'Welcome to Moe's!' The one in Normal does not do Moe's justice. read more

I always enjoy burritos from Moe's everywhere but this place had a wonderful staff that were friendly and provided wonderful service!! read more

Moes is a staple in our family. Our go to restaurant. We especially like the free chips and salsa that comes with every meal. The owners are responsive and present in the community. Combined with DoorDash during this COVID-19 crisis this place is must have comfort food! read more

Moes is a great fast casual restaurant that has many options and ingredients for everyone. The salsas are really fantastic and they give you free chips with every order. Go on a Monday for the best deal of the week! read more

Great food! One of your many "build your own burrito" places, the service is friendly and they have options for almost any eater. I'm a big fan of their corn salsa and the different salsas they have for their chips are varied and very delicious. I think the prices are a little high, but on par with other burrito places like this. read more

looking for something quick that tastes good and hit up moes. food was especially good and the cashier, adam, was particularly nice and kinda cute. adam if you see this please text me back. read more

dirty as hell bruh and the lady ain't even know how to fold my burrito! how u gon work at a burrito place and not know how to fold a burrito! she was walking around "cleaning" the counters and jus wiping everything in the floor like...... read more

Went here a few weeks ago at 11am and it was disgustingly filthy. Tried it again yesterday and I guess no one ever cleans. You could scrap gunk up with a putty knife on the floor. The end lady at the cashier is bugging you to pay when there's 2 of us and we are only half way down the line! We used to go here a lot and it used it to be clean. Now honestly it is just absolutely disgusting. The women's bathroom toilet had crap blown all over. It was the grossest dirtiest bathroom I've ever seen. I just held it! read more

A Tom O'Shea favorite, I love how they greet you with a warm WELCOME TO MOE'S. I would usually go there with Heartland Baseball teammates when I was manager and going there today for lunch brought back great memories. I usually get a streak burrito with a bowl of queso and chips. read more

Not for the simple taco eater. Although the quality of the taco is actually very good, its insanely overpriced. There special "Taco Tuesday" deal is an absolute joke, 2 taco's and a drink for $6!!! Taco Johns has a deal for 2 taco's for $1 and they are nearly as good as Moe's. At Taco Johns i will get 6 or 8 taco's for either $3 or $4. If i did that at Moe's i'd be spending either $18 or $24!!!! So because of the horrid price i will get a $6 tiny portion of food and leave the place still very hungry and disappointed. I think the most disappointing part of all though, if they were to have reasonable taco prices I would love the place and go there a lot. read more

Moe's has good food for the price. Only issue I have with this location is the size..too small for the amount of business they do...and not always consistent with freshness/taste (of ingredients) and quantity ( of ingredients) given what you ordered. Still, can't ever go wrong with Moe Monday!! read more

kudos to Moe's for introducing smaller size burritos so i don't leave feeling like a cow, and for also offering multigrain tortillas so i have the illusion of a healthy meal (forget that i use sour cream and guac and gorge myself on chips and salsa) corny maybe, but i love being welcomed here... quality of food is great too. and the salsa bar... Kaiser Salsa all the way. p.s. coolest names for their meals too... Art Van da Lay... read more
