8. Mo's Pub and Grill
Reviewed By ransal1
We were looking for some place to eat other than fast food, so we happened upon Mo's. It was 20 minutes to get seated on a Friday night, 20 minutes to order our meals, and 20 minutes to eat. Once seated we couldn't get noticed, but the waitress apologized when she made it to our table. She said they are really busy, which she loved, because of the tips. We all ordered basic food. My friend ordered a chicken fried chicken dinner. It was huge and covered in gravy. I told him to make sure he sees his cardiologist when he gets home. I had a basic sirloin burger with fries. Quite tasty. The waitress was really friendly and the restaurant was clean. $10-$12 meal.

We were staying at the hotel and enjoyed the convenience of this restaurant. The server works very hard to provide great service. They appear to have limited staff but everything goes smoothly. The food is good and arrives in a reasonable time. We will eat here on our return trip.

For more than 65 years Denny's has been bringing people together over great food. It's the place where people can relax and be themselves; where they can enjoy classic American comfort food and everyday value. 24 hours a day. 365 days a year. Here, you ca

I guess our first clue was that there was a line of customers to be seated with lots of empty tables. But many of those tables had piles of dirty dishes. We were seated, then ...Waited ... Drink orders placed.... Waited ...Drinks arrive ...Waited ...Food order ... Waited ... Food arrives, but no silverware. May we have some silverware ? .. Waited... No progress...Food is getting cold . So I went to the back and picked up my own silverware . I remembered the old Denny's inside Tucumcari, and had been looking forward to my return. What a disappointment !

Everyone went on and on about the pizza and crust. Our crust had to be sawed through with a knife. The sauce and cheese were good. The thin crust was too crispy. I hate to give an average rating, but this is how we felt. We also had the wedge salad which was very good.Easy parking. Easy to get out of the parking lot. Our pizza was onion,mushroom,sausage . The sausage was hot. I will try again when here.Thank you for your review. We do have a very good crust, unfortunately when you make your crust daily from scratch the consistency of ingredients may vary enough to cause it to toughen. I have several different cooks that make the crust, which would account for the inconsistency of the measuring of the ingredients. I have already put up a notification to my cooks that all recipes are to be read and followed through to the 'T'. Again, my apologies for the crust being average. We do strive to be above average, so critiques like this help us in gauging which direction we need to go. I hope to see you in the restaurant again, and I hope that you'll have a better experience. Thank you.

An interesting stop on Route 66 in Tucumcari. The restaurant is decorated with paintings by a local artist, Douglas Quarles, and are amazing, especially the ones at the booths. Worth dining there to see them. The service is excellent and friendly. The food is good. A Route 66 must. We really enjoyed this experience.

We decided to spend the night in Tucumcari and ate at Delâs. There was a short wait of about 15 mins on a Saturday night. The place was continually busy, but the wait never appeared to be very long for anyone. The staff was friendly and prompt. Food was delicious and just what was needed after a long day of driving. Good home style cooking. Salad bar was fresh. Had option of two soups but We did not try either. Definitely will eat there again if ever through that area.

Enjoyed every meal. All three of us ate a nice hearty meal. Sausage is homemade, staff is friendly as are the patrons! Support your local business people! It was truly a wonderful experience. Would love a pankicks breakfast right about now. Located right across from the Roadrunner lodge. Thank you for stopping in and visiting us. We appreciate the kind words and look forward to serving you again.

I ate dinner here as a stopover on a cross country trip using trip advisors high rating and was very disappointed. I had the brisket. It was fatty and almost inedible. For barbecue it had no bark that one would expect to see from smoking. Maybe I should have gotten the ribs or something else but based on this I would not return.The only positive was the friendly owners.Sorry you were disappointed. Perhaps you will give us another try someday. Thanks for stopping in.
