    I love this place!! We come here every time I’m in town, the Homewrecker is the monster burrito built to your desires and served with tortilla chips and they have four choices of hot sauce but the Hot is the best. The beverage machine has a lot of selections to choose from and you can get free refills. Definitely a five star from me and don’t forget to give your services some “gas” money (you’ll get it when you go there).

    First time here. Giving it a try since I walked past this place lots of times and was looking for a Mexican fast food restaurant other than Taco Bell. So anyway, I tried the Steak Nachos and Chicken Quesadilla. This place has a choice of Steak,Chicken, or ground beef. They also have a vegetarian version, substituting tofu for their meat offerings. The Steak Nachos were great, and the Chicken Quesadilla was good too. Guacamole is available, but is an extra cost. Would be great if it was free,but cant have everything in life. They also have complementary chips and salsa, with the salsa being available at a self-serve salsa bar. The only drawback about eating here on this day was the fact that the soda fountain was out of service,which results in me not giving this place 5 stars. Other than that the food was great for a fast food restaurant. Hope to go back another day and try the other items on their menu.

    Great food!!! This is a chipotle/qdoba style place with burritos and bowls and nachos and even salads. I enjoyed my nachos a lot as they were fresh. They also had fresh jalapenos on top of pickled ones which is very rare and was a nice touch that I enjoyed. The restaurant was right on the edge of the mall and had some seeting inside (up to 4 people per table) which was convenient so I could eat before I did my Christmas shopping. Thourghly enjoyed and recommend checking it out if you haven't been before.

    Where to start. Always great service, quick and to the point. Not the widest selection of salsa as compared to other Moe's but it has the good ones. Though a great variation of Tex-Mex items are available. And yes. The guac is extra, but well worth it.

    Pretty good. But not to the standard of chipotle. If you’re in this area go to el mariachi 2 instead. Moe’s advertises whole grain tortillas, but they don’t have them. It would be nice if they had brown rice. But for people that aren’t interested in trying to eat healthy and just want cheese sauce and free chips, you might be more satisfied than I was. On the plus side the food is fresh and tasty. Love that they have good toppings like fresh cilantro and raw jalapeño. Also the staff is friendly and treats your food with care.

    Great food. I will be back!

  • 2/5 Alexandra F. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was flavorless mush. For 2 salads with bell peppers and quac add-ons and 2 fountain drinks, it cost around $46. Waste of money. Also, the parking here is a nightmare. We drove out from town to try this place out and we regretted it. Giving 2 stars instead of 1 because the staff was very courteous.

    I had never tried nachos made 'my way' before, but I am glad I found this place. Having to eat at this place was like eating at a Subway Taco Bell. Things were made the way I wanted it and the staff are super friendly and always willing to make sure their space was cleaned before we sat.

  • 5/5 Damian C. 2 years ago on Google
    I can't say enough about the Pearlridge Moe's location! The staff is friendly and speedy. It is a great lunch spot for those in a hurry who want a customized burrito. I really like that they have a digital coke machine that let's you customize your drink. I'm a big fan of Coke zero with lime!

  • 4/5 Christina M. 2 years ago on Google
    Moe's was our restaurant of choice on the mainland. Prices here are definitely a lot more. They were steadily busy, but not swamped, and if felt a bit rushed even with nobody behind us. No cilantro rice was a bummer. Be careful adding things, most is a $1 upcharge and they don't warn you. When asked for a lot of onions and cilantro, they did hook it up though. Food tasted like we're used to, no complaints there! We'll definitely be back.

    One of my favorite places to eat... love the food choices.

  • 1/5 Yesi C. 2 years ago on Google
    How do people like this place?!?! It is disgusting. If you some delicious burritos/tacos save your money and go to foodland in pearl city. They are DELICIOUS

  • 5/5 Michael C. 5 years ago on Google
    My first time. Definitely enjoyed my Doug whatever. Had Chipotle for the first time and sure it was fresh, but to me it had no flavor. Mo's was spot on fire a chain and great for our limited selection in Hawaii.

  • 4/5 Brandon C. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is good, but they’re EXTREMELY stingy with the chicken. Got the bowl and they put maybe a tablespoon of chicken in it. For the prices you pay they should give an adequate amount of meat. Quest dip is 👌👌👌 yum!

  • 5/5 Jenn & Steve G. 1 year ago on Google
    I always appreciate a place that clearly has allergies posted (mine are gluten and dairy). Everything was fresh, flavorful and a happy find.

  • 5/5 саша 1 year ago on Google
    I get Moe’s every time I’m in the Pearl Ridge area because it’s my favorite Mexican joint on the island. I love their queso and I usually get a steak bowl. Place is always clean and you get served right away.

  • 3/5 Ashley Z. 10 months ago on Google
    Food was medicore at best. Even the famed queso wasn't hitting the spot - no flavor and very watery. Customer service was friendly.

  • 3/5 C P. 11 months ago on Google
    Ordered the steak bowl. Steak was too salty but tender. Server was skimping on ingredients. Their definition of each serving of ingredients is tablespoon portion.

  • 3/5 Stephen G. 10 months ago on Google
    This was my very first time ever eating at Moe's and I was honestly disappointed. The food was okay but expensive for what it was. Most likely won't be going back anytime soon.

  • 5/5 Sabrina M. 7 months ago on Google
    Surprised by the rich flavors! Delicious! I ordered the "Homewrecker Bowl" with grilled chicken... yumms! You can choose your toppings too! They have a fresh salsa bar... will definitely come back!!!

  • 5/5 Jordan B. 4 months ago on Google
    I've been to a lot of Moe's and this one is way better than most, they actually say welcome to Moe's and aren't mad that you walked in. They are quick and nice and they always have the hat sauce I love and it's not watered down like other Moe's.

  • 5/5 L S. 8 months ago on Google
    I love Moe’s. I just stopped by today to grab some of their fresh guacamole and chips. The crew is such a vibe. You can tell they genuinely love working with each other. Love this spot!

  • 5/5 milo david h. 8 months ago on Google
    Food portion size was great. The greeting when you enter is enthusiastic. The downside is the open area on the mall side is corrdned off and you need to exit the mall to enter Moe's.

  • 5/5 Sheri B. 7 months ago on Google
    I love Moe’s! Warm customer service. The Moe’s kit! Baby! I don’t cook for 2 days at a time! Look it is flavorful and healthy.

    Came in for lunch. We got a burrito. Quesadilla and a cup of queso. Everything was great, but the queso didn’t taste the way I would like.

    Always gotta love Moe’s !!

  • 4/5 Sherwin N. 4 years ago on Google
    "Welcome to Moe's" is what we heard as we stood in line which is their own brand of customer acknowledgement. The food was delicious I felt full but not over stuffed. The queso is the bomb and pairs well with the nachos and Chipotle. I had a good baby tbh. The tables were kept clean and the return tray areas were kept free of used items. Overall an excellent experience with good value. The station for the salsa was clean but one of the offerings was empty beside the two other salsa options. IDK if this was intentional but it felt strange.

  • 5/5 Ramsie P. 4 years ago on Google
    Lovely TexMex place that has REALLY GOOD MANNERS. Finally a semi-fastfood place that has EXCELENT customer service. A must visit for those that miss LA and San Diego Mex style spots!

    The food is delish😋

  • 5/5 Casey T. 3 years ago on Google
    Very clean. I've had Moe's all around the mainland too. Can't go wrong with Moe's. Much better than Chipotle in my honest opinion. They have so many more choices.
