Learn moreI rarely give 5 star reviews. Most restaurants always have some areas to improve upon. Quite frankly, Mo's doesn't need to change anything.
We arrived at about 9am on Sunday, which is prime time for breakfast. There were a few groups of people outside, and we were told the wait would be about 25 minutes. Fair enough, since it's Sunday morning. After only 5 minutes we were called and were seated at a table.
Our server immediately brought over complimentary coffee cakes and took our drink orders. Mind you the entire restaurant was busy and all the servers were very busy. She came back a few minutes later and took our orders.
The breakfast menu has just about everything you'd expect from a breakfast establishment. The restaurant is clean and maintained. All of the staff that I saw were friendly, they all spoke English, and all were probably allowed to legally live and work in the United States, which is uncommon for a restaurant in Southern California.
Our food arrived a short time later. Which was a pleasant surprise considering how busy it was. Everything was hot, and seemed to have been freshly prepared for our order. I had the Cinnamon Roll French Toast, which is literally a giant cinnamon roll on top of a giant slice of cinnamon roll French toast, drizzled with frosting. My order came with bacon and eggs, and I foolishly ordered a side of toast as well. I barely at half of my French toast. It was delicious, but the portion was huge. The eggs were also cooked perfectly, but I was so f ull I could only eat a few bites.
In closing, Mo's is a really great spot. The food, the service, and the atmosphere are top notch. Although I'd suggest not eating the day before, so you have enough room to properly...
Read moreI can see that they try very hard to do a great job. They bring a piece of warm coffee cake, which is a nice touch. I ordered the country scramble with the potatoes, and it was very generous. I upgraded to a 7 grain pancake. It was a big disappointment! It was pale, lacking a whole-grain texture, flavorless and rather gummy . The waitress kindly took it off my bill because I didn't eat it I asked for all butter for my pancake, but I think it's a blend . I find servers think they are offering butter but the restaurant actually has a whipped blend of margarine and butter. Margarine is a transfat and extremely unhealthy
I requested that the eggs be easy and not overcooked. They were moist, but they still had that brown surface underneath where they left it on the skillet too long. Fortunately it didn't affect the flavor, but I really don't care for my eggs when they are cooked so that they turned brown it appeared that they had put American cheese across the top of my scramble and again, I avoid processed foods. This was very disappointing. The scramble tasted good and again, was moist, but it didn't quite meet my expectations.
The meat in the scramble was very generous, and I thought the potatoes were good, the texture of the potatoes being firm and cooked .
For most people this meal probably would've been perfect , other than the upgrade I did with the pancake. It's a busy place and popular so they are doing things right but some of us need a healthier...
Read moreCame here Murrieta Graduation Day, so it was destined to be busy. Had surprisingly good service. Kindly asked for a straw, got one. Chocolate pancakes were good, but I got 3 and only managed to eat 2 😢. Didn’t get to the toast. Apparently one of the sodas were watered down. But still, really good food. And they managed to get one of the people I was eating with to give a 5/5 review on food, which is incredibly rare. Group rating total, 4 members, and my way of averaging things out landed a 4.9 group review of stars out of 5. They had an android pay thingy. Total pay was $86.12 USD. Would recommend. I don’t think they had Apple Pay tho. So just a warning. And when we came here on 5/30/2024 at about 11-12 (military time), a sign I saw said they only accepted cash/card. The tables looked nice. They had booths, and tables and chairs. I don’t think the booth seats were padded/covered, but the chairs were. It’s a very nice place. Kinda tucked away, but easy to get into. So food. 5/5. Service, 5/5. Atmosphere, 4/5. I didn’t get group opinion on atmosphere, so that’s my rating. The reason behind it was because I didn’t like it but thought it was nice. So yeah. I don’t have a very solid reason in atmosphere, but a reason nonetheless. So have a good day and thank you for reading this...
