Get the chicken!!! My husband and I both bragged about their chicken. They also have amazing plantains. Very close to Silver Springs park. read more

Went on a Friday night, and while it wasn't too busy, the service made it feel like we were invisible. Our server took our drink order quickly, but then we sat there for almost 30 minutes before they came back, definitely a sign of how the rest of the night would go. We had to hunt someone down every time we needed something--napkins, refills, extra ranch..you name it. For food, we started with the fried pickles, then got the Cuban sandwich and the fajita platter. We also ordered a Shirley Temple, but it was so watered down it tasted like fizzy tap water, it had no hint of grenadine or Sprite at all. The fajita platter was disappointing. The chicken was overcooked and lacked flavor, so we had to drench it in Cajun ranch just to make it enjoyable. The fried pickles were a letdown too. They were salty and over-seasoned, plus they were more soggy than crispy. A few had a good crunch, but they were tiny, almost like crumbs. The one saving grace? The Cuban sandwich. It had a great balance of meat and flavor, definitely the best thing we had all night. Between the hit-or-miss food and frustrating service, I'm not sure I'd return to this location. It wasn't the worst experience, but it wasn't great either. read more

VERY HIT & MISS LATELY...! Food portions are definitely much smaller and prices (of course!) are raised...! Your 'service' at the bar seems lately to depend on whether you are perceived by 'staff' as a so-called 'regular' (or an obvious big tipper)....or just some 'other' guy...! Bar staff often ignores potential customers to 'socialize' with 'regulars'...OBVIOUSLY very tip-driven here...! BEWARE the shrinking draft beer....went from 16oz to 14 oz glass...AND RAISED THE PRICE TOO...!!! Prices too high now (in our opinion ) for what you get...POOR VALUE...!! read more

Loved this place!! Food was amazing, service was excellent and the vibe was nice! Will return soon!!!

My wife ordered the chicken wings with parm dressing. She said they were very good. I ordered something like a cheese steak. It was good. But I got to tell you that the coleslaw sucked, it was way to spicy for me. All in all, it was a good meal. The beer was iced cold. To full for dessert . read more

Loved coming here with family for a birthday celebration. The food was wonderful; all for of our meals, especially my shrimp and cheesy grits. The music vibe here is marvelous !! Big shout out to our server Wendy, who was friendly, efficient, helpful, funny; and she brought my SIL a special birthday dessert with a cheerful group of servers singing!! read more

The service, food, and ambience was incredible!!! Blackened chicken fajitas is what I chose after a bunch of contemplation. Will definitely go back to try anything on the menu!!! Our waitress was so friendly and helpful. Wish they had live music, but... read more

we once loved mojos! We've been doing wing night for past few months. They are cooked to the point of being crunchy and and shriveled meat. I kept thinking it would get better. Tonight we got burgers to go. Our buns were like rocks and super dry! No way we could eat them. I had the blk bean burger. The "meat" was burnt to a nice charcoal, as in it looked and tasted like charcoal. We're really bummed that our fav place is no longer in our top 20. PS I have photos if you don't believe me :x read more

Fantastic food! We've ordered from them several times and nothing has disappointed. I really like the Jambalaya.

We eat at Mojo's every time we are in the Ocala area. Great funky atmosphere, delicious food, reasonable prices. I always enjoy the Rajun Cajun Pasta. These folks have some Cuban influence, because they have Cuban dishes like Vaca Frita and Cuban Pork, and believe or not they are pretty good. They have a stage and plenty of musical instruments as decore, so don't doubt they have musical performances at times, we just have not had the pleasure of experiencing any performances. read more

Went to Mojo's for the first time and had a great meal and fantastic service. Our server, Wendy was very friendly, efficient, and made our dining experience enjoyable! I ordered the shrimp and grits and my husband ordered a braised beef Cuban sandwich. We also had chips and queso for an appetizer and do desserts! The banana fosters cheesecake was delicious but the beignets were out of this world! We will definitely be back! read more

Fun spot with cool music, nice service, and a fun decor. It's definitely a comfort food joint, and they serve up strong tasty cocktails. Good portions for the price you pay. read more

My wife and I decided to try Mojos for a late lunch. We had Charly, who was a great waitress. However my order was to have no mushrooms, yet there they were. My wife ordered chicken quesadillas, and her second bite got a slivered chicken bone caught in her throat. Coughing, she finally got it out. We informed Charly, and had our meals remade and had told the manager. Endless to say the manager never came to check if everything was OK, even though it was not busy at all. This will absolutely be the last time we step foot in this place, as there are numerous better places in this town. read more

Our first meal after rolling into town, was here. And it was the best. My shrimp tacos were very good. Wife's chicken tacos were good too. I especially liked the sauce they provided. Service was fast and attentive. I like that. The prices were reasonable. The odd interior made for a quirky lunch. Records stapled to the walls, a drum set and guitar amps hanging upside down from the ceiling. I'd say, it's worth a visit and a glance around. read more

My kids both have food allergies, so I called the restaurant prior to stopping by. The manager, Henry, confirmed what I was interested in was good with their allergies and told me to ask for him once we got there. Henry came to our table, verified everything was safe, and even made the meal himself to be extra sure. Our server, Christine, was also very attentive, constantly checked on us and made sure everything was ok. I am very pleased with the service and care with the food allergies. I love that they were able to accommodate not only gluten free but my son's other allergies (shell fish, nuts, eggs). We will definitely be back!! read more

We were driving through after hiking in Palatka and were curious about the wildly differing reviews so we stopped in. The reason for the disparity is simply that the locals don't have anything better. It's mostly fast food here. The staff is absolutely fantastic. The reviews are right about that. We ordered the following: Fried pickles: Flavorful but soggy for the bottom half of the container with oil pooling. Jambalaya: Pretty boring. I didn't even think that was possible for anything calling itself jambalaya. It was very plain and uninspired. Mostly rice with small bits of sausage and large bits of onion. Buffalo wings: Bowling Alley adjacent. Waffle fries: Ok. read more

This new mgr "Alton" is one of the MOST INHOSPITABLE people I have EVER witnessed at ANY restaurant!! Definitely NOT the type to be working in ANY TYPE of service employment! What a disgrace to Mojo's atmosphere!! read more

Great service ! Great place Delicious food !!! We were recommended this place from people at Silver Springs Kayaks and it did not disappoint! Everyone in our party was happy and delighted by their meals and drinks! We went for a lunch during the week and they were slightly busy but not crazy and we were seated in the fireplace area with the Elvis and stairway to heaven with guitars and pictures of artists painted at the top ! Good music playing and good vibes ! The menu has lots of options from quesadillas to salads to fajitas and wings and bowls of every type! The teenagers cleaned their plates , the chips and cheese were a hit , the wings were my dads favorite , the pulled pork quesadillas I couldn't even finish , and the different types of bowls were a hit all around the table ! If I lived here , I would go every other week ! My dad is going to make this a regular place to visit now!! We will tell all our friends to come !! read more

It was dirty, the bathroom was dirty smelled like urine and the service was horrible no one is even in there anymore. It's bad

Friendly service and a nice big parking lot for easy entrance. The food was hit or miss. The Jambalya was just ok at best, while the cuban pork was top notch. The server had no idea of what beer was on tap, so it was hard to get one. The prices were quite fair and the atmosphere was eclectic. The portions were generous and overall it was fine. read more

Ok.. I have been to this establishment a few times just doing a view. Nice atmosphere and people are nice in the passed I have had a burger that was great this time I had wings and cuban both good the beans and rice just bring the temperature up a bit when serving mine was room temp. All good thank you guys and Happy New Year read more

Awesome local hangout spot. I had their pulled pork tacos which were not bad. I came back another night for Slap Yo Mama wings. Funny thing with wings is the ones with two bones taste a lot better than the one with one bone. Those came out rather dry but I would order again and hopefully request to be served more of the two bone pieces. read more

1.5 hours, a messed up appetizer, a warm patio due to a broken fan, and had to confiscate my own togo boxes.......hmmmm. I am a big fan of Mojo's and typically frequent this location. This experience has really put a bad taste in my mouth which I found very surprising. three meals: salad, wings, and chicken sandwich. Ordered the hot mess appetizer. I have to order it with the pork and bacon on the side because I don't do pork, but others I am with typically do. It came out.......very slow, but we heard the kitchen was backed up so this is to be expected. It was fully loaded. When the person brought it I immediately sent it back due to the errors. Shortly after the waitress , Noah, comes by and apologizes claiming it was her error, but it would be out very soon.........well not sure if she was referring to how long it took "Noah to build an ark" as quickly but that was not happening. When I never received our tab I walked myself up to the waitress area with my to go items in hand to confiscate to go boxes. I told her that I could not wait anymore but needed to pay the tab. I reviewed my $61 tab and sw there were two hot messes, but one was comped. I thought well this is good they are comping the appetizer because she messed up and it took forever to get the replacement. I walked over to the manager and said it appears that this was comped, but I was charged 2 times. He said right, did you not receive the 2nd one. I said yes but I thought you were comping this. He said no I wanted to make sure you weren't double charged. Then it hit me, the reason it took so long for the replacement is she put in a new order.....wow. So there was no way it was coming anytime sooner. this experience was definitely not their best act, and I must say I lost a little bit of excitement about returning. I truly thought taking care of the customer was their thing........I guess I was wrong. read more

Super cute restaurant. Artsy music/rock and roll vibe. Our waiter Randy was awesome. We started with the hot mess appetizer. It's was really yummy. Lots of pork and queso on top of a bed of waffle fries. Delish!!! For our entree my hubby ordered the Birria tacos. He liked them. It was just missing a little more spice/seasoning, but it was good quality ingredients. I got the shrimp and grits. I'm a big shrimp and grits eater so to me they were just ok. Needed a little salt to bring out the flavors. Then we had dessert. This was my favorite part. We had the bourbon peach bread pudding. OMG it was sooooo good. It was gooey in the inside and crispy on the top. The crispy top layer had tiny pieces of peaches, a brown sugar bourbon sauce and caramel. It was served warm with two scoops of vanilla ice cream. Wow! Sweet heaven! Overall a cute place with a great vibe. read more

I contacted Mojo Grill for catering information for our two Hospice volunteer Christmas parties. Jamie Green is their catering director and I have to say, she was a pleasure to work with. She replyed to all of my emails promptly and was so helpful. The catering staff showed up early, they had everything they needed and were a pleasure to work with. They served the delicious food and even cleared plates. They set up everything really nice and everyone loved the food. I highly recommend using Jamie Green and her catering staff at Mojo Grill. You will not be disappointed in the price either. read more

Consistently good food and great service! It's one of my favorite restaurants. Try the vaca frita!

Lunch at Mojos Silver Springs Fl., Ordered the blackened chicken fajitas. Chicken was dry void of any flavor, i.e. blackened. Vegetable medely (onions, red and green pepper) were not fresh, little grilling and tasted vinargery. Rice and beans were ok. Beer was good. Will not go back. read more

For a small town, casual place, I would say this is worth a "stop in". It was a late afternoon on a weekday, and not very busy, but service was a bit slower than I would've expected. However, once we did order, the food came out SUPER fast. Great vibe and decor Warning: if you do not like country music, you probably won't like this place ;) There is both indoor and outdoor seating, and even an outdoor seating area that is "no smoking", Yayyy! They have indoor and outdoor bars. Outdoor is pet friendly! read more

Every time I'm in the area I have to pass by and get my black beans fix. Not only is this a great establishment for service and food but that decor is awesome. Never had a bad dish or service and will continue to support this amazing small business. Keep up the great work and we'll see you again soon. read more

A Friday early evening with a table of teachers (and that's why there will be no photos) was a great way to close out a hectic week at Mojo's on 40 in Silver Springs. Unfortunately, I was stuck in traffic and got there late, but our server, Mariah, made me feel like I had been there the whole time and had my drink ready for me. There were three (all different) Ragin' Cajun pasta dishes, teriyaki wings, slap your momma wings, quesadillas and plantains - along with a variety of adult beverages - and everything was top notch. One of our party actually said the wings were a little off and Mariah scooped them right off the table and had a replacement out in a heartbeat. The food was great and the service was second to none.

I can't say enough about the staff here absolutely wonderful seems like they really enjoy their jobs. The food is great very very good our waitress Holly took great care of us. We came back three days later into our discovery found out that her husband Ocho Also worked there and he was just as happy and helpful as she was thank you for a great experience. The food is outstanding the beers on tap are plentiful they make some of the great liquor drinks that you could ask for especially if you have a sweet tooth I want a jolly rancher it's good read more

Food had no flavor and they really do h give much in terms of portions. I ordered a chicken bowl and it was basically all rice and had to look for the chicken. The waitress was not very good as she never came back to ask if we wanted another drink. Disappointed because it seemed like a cool place to go. read more

Environment has much to offer & food is phenomenal! The restaurant is covered in sayings and jokes and music. It looks like they offer live music but I went during the midday. I split the Bourbon Street Bowl and the Baja Chicken Bowl with my mom. Both were AMAZING. They were packed with veggies and left us stuffed. Their custom salsa was also very fresh & great for the table. read more
