On 2/16/2025 MC C had this to say:
Steaks, burgers, and meals were all delicious and not overly salty. The steak is better than Texas Roadhouse.

On 1/30/2025 Amy Brause had this to say:
It’s nice to have a sit down option for good food in the mall, though we would follow Mo no matter where he went. Mo’s Friday night prime rib dinner, the ribeyes, fried shrimp, chicken tortilla soup are all good but so are the burgers, French dips and taco salads are yummy too. We have been going since my husband worked there years and years ago. It’s more than ac restaurant as it is a family.
