beef burrito bowl
Sho R.

It's been a while since I went to this Moe's. Last time I have been here, burritos were not great. But this time I went for chicken burrito bowl and beef burrito bowl. Both were good.

Two bags of chips and cheese and one burrito when I ordered to two burritos and two tacos. What a joke. No more service from me.

If I could give this place negative stars I would. Unbelievable. I ordered take out delivery $31.00 worth of food two burritos, and two tacos. What did I get? One burrito and two bags of chips with cheese and one cup of salsa. Is this some kind of joke? I'm going to call the company and report this establishment. Worse food order I've ever received.

Burrito is soggy and I can barely hold it without my finger falling through it

Just grabbed a homewrecker 20 mins ago. The worker had little to no care about making the food and it was poorly handled. Burrito is falling apart and I can barely eat it.

Hot sauce!

This is my go-to place for a quick "Mexican" fix (emphasis on the quotation marks). The portions are very generous, the prices are fair, and there is plenty of variety to choose from regarding toppings and salsas. When I went here, I ordered the "Earmuffs" which is basically a burrito bowl. Additionally, I had some chips and queso. Let me tell you that they do not skimp on any of the ingredients and the bowl is FILLED. If you are super hungry, I definitely recommend the "Earmuffs" since (depending on you fill it) it is easily shareable between two people. The burrito bowl is larger than the bowl served in Chipotle, so be prepared. I absolutely enjoyed the chips and queso, and the dip had a nice "dangerously cheesy" flavor to it. As a person who LOVES spicy food and hot sauce, I absolutely love their salsa bar. I favored the ability to choose from a variety of salsas since at times I may want a bite to be super spicy, but other times I may want it more mild. Despite their portions being very generous, the quality of "Mexican" food simply and definitely cannot compare to the authentic mom-&-pop restaurants. (Just stating the obvious.) Hence, I recommend this place to anyone craving a quick "southwest/Mexican" fix and to anyone who has a huge appetite.

Nothing makes you lose your appetite like finding a piece of soggy cardboard in your burrito bowl.

I'm a huge fan of Moe's, having eaten at both locations in Storrs and South Windsor. And I was pleased to hear about this location, given its convenient proximity to a lot of stores I frequent. So I was one of the first customers in the door for this location's $3 burrito grand opening at 11:00 AM. Within the first 30 min, the line was already stretching towards the back of their restaurant. I ordered a veggie burrito bowl (their name for it is "band camp") with both kinds of rice, both kinds of beans, the pico de gallo, corn, lettuce, and guacamole. I then added generous helpings of one of their medium salsas at their serve-yourself salsa bar. Normally you get some tortilla chips with any entree order that you can eat with the salsa of your choosing, though I've noticed the quantity of chips fluctuates widely with the mood of the employee who's serving you. This time, my friend and I were only given a paltry handful of chips each, without any extra for the queso she had also ordered. Either they expected us to eat most of the $3.99 cup of queso with a spoon or it was just an oversight - so we went up to ask for extra chips on our way out, which they did give us without any issues. I ate half my burrito bowl there and was disappointed to find some of the rice to be undercooked. I saved half to eat for lunch the next day and was alarmed to discover a large piece of soggy cardboard mixed in with the tomatoes. I knew this wasn't something I had personally done because the food had been stored with a cover, and thinking back, I had dismissed my observation of the big spoonful of picco de gallo looking a little brown. Finally, if you have any food allergies or dietary restrictions, I would caution you against eating here. I noticed as my bowl was being made that there were pieces of cheese that had fallen into the tomatoes, which I made sure to avoid. It seemed to me like their arrangement of ingredients could be better to avoid cross-contamination, particularly for people who may have life-threatening allergies. As much as I love Moe's as a chain, the issues I encountered on their grand opening day make me nervous about eating at this location again.

The classic burrito is SO good. The shredded beef melts in your mouth, and there are always left overs to take home. The staff are so friendly and always on top of anything you may need. The food is delivered fast and their margaritas are one of my favorites. The vibes are nice and cozy. There is music always playing and the atmosphere is fun and relaxing. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out.

Very basic Mexican fare…read more I've sworn I've written a review for this place. Eh, all well. I use this place as a barometer for Mexican food. What you get here is the bare bones stock version of Mexican cuisine. Not bad, but usually with lots of cut corners and inferior quality dishes. It's not that they don't try. They do season their microwaved rice and doctor up their cans of refried beans to bring some flavor to the mix. Their chips are warmed and their salsa has some extra spice added in. It's the type of Mexican cuisine suitable for the older generation. Not offensive, basic flavors and comfortable. The price point reflects this, and it's relatively affordable for what you get. This isn't a place I go to expecting great food. This place I go to for that one step above a fast food taco place, and it meets those expectations. If you need a place to take a family to, or you have parents and want to get them something they can handle spice wise, then this place works.

We…read morestarted with the Smoked chicken chowder, which the chef split for us, and it was fantastic!!! They had a $20 Lunch "sampler" with 3 wings, 2 tacos, and some boardwalk style fries. I had the citrus BBQ sauce on the wings and they were really good!! The tacos, I had the pork and the chicken, were super flavorful. The fries, wow the fries were super good!! This was just a great experience. The chef owner is very personable and professional. Definitely worth the visit!!!

Stopped in on a early Saturday evening. Order "House Salsa" appetizer ($5) Salsa came 'house-made'…read moretortilla chips, served on a sheet pan. Chip portion appeared small, larger portion or smaller pan would help. Chips were cold, thinner than most chips I've had. The salsa was nothing special, a little too spicy for the wife. When we ordered our tacos, I was disappointed to learn they were out of steak. They only had chicken, pork and shrimp selections. I ordered "Street Taco", my wife "Southern Shrimp". Since they were out of grilled steak, I asked for recommendation, for Street taco filling which was pork. Tacos are served on soft flour tortillas unless hard is requested. For $1.50 more, I ordered it "Gringo Style"- which includes shredded cheese, sour cream and shredded lettuce. Taco was nothing extraordinary- pork was a little dry, a little too spicy for my taste. More "Gringo" ingredients would have been better. Taco wasn't what I expected, but then again, my experience has mostly been with Taco Bell... A nice perk is that NCT is a BYOB eatery. The eating area is a big open, high-ceiling space, the seating area a combination of tables, benches and high-top bar. A "Day of the Dead" wall-size mural adorns the children's rec area that has a video game machine and rack full of board games. Service was on point, place squeaky clean. The atmosphere highly conducive to a relaxed family outing while enjoying your choice of imbibement. I didn't get a chance to try it, but my wife said her shrimp taco was good. She is a light-weight when it comes to spicy, so I believe her, makes me wish I ordered shrimp, it was not a meat option for the Street Taco I ordered, maybe it should be. My review is 2-stars short mostly for being out-of-steak on a early Saturday evening, and lack-luster appetizer and taco. I still think with some tweaking, this place has potential to become a 5-star spot.

We had the birria tacos, beef tacos, Al pastor tacos, the queso and chips and churros. All of the meals came with a little portion of salsa too which was perfect I will say the queso did not seem like it came from the restaurant, but instead like a velvety. Still enjoyable. The tacos were pretty cold when they arrived, but I don't fault the restaurant and the beef tacos were supposed to be crunchy, but again everything tasted perfect. The highlight of this order was for sure the churros. They were so delicious. Not warm at all but so so good. My friend who doesn't like churros and thinks they're dry, absolutely loved these because of the filling and the chewiness. Divine. I would come back just for those. And next time, I would eat in the restaurant itself as the delivery made everything a tad less fulfilling. All in all, I will be back. Thank you Three Amigos!!!
