Excellent atmosphere.

by dcguy

I am new to Raleigh from the DC area and got lucky on my first trip to Glenwood Street. I parked my car at the top of the hill and was going to walk down and see what I could find, but I heard the sweet sounds of Elliot Smith coming from the cozy little burger joint on the corner. I went in to investigate and discovered $1.50 PBR's! I ate some Spicy wings (not very spicy, but very good). Then after a while I had the build your own Mo burger with PepperJack cheese. It was not the best burger I have ever had, but it was delicious and the price was right. Onion rings were good too. I stayed for two hours (and 5 more beers) just to see what the next song would be on the bartender's ipod! Neil Young, Dead Milkmen, Gorillaz, Hank Williams, I think there was even a Bobby McFerrin song. I think I've found my Sunday night hang out!! Well played Mojo's, well played indeed.

• Pros: Music, Food, Service Great
• Cons: Don't change a thing.

Horrible Management

by aethereal

My wife went to have a good hamburger to take home. We were sitting at a table, the restaurant was not crowded, but the assist. manager came and asked us to stand while our order was prepared because another couple wanted our table. We declined and left. We will never go there again!!

• Cons: Rude and not respectful of all customers.

WORST burger in town.

by elixirD

Wow was I duped. Though mellow and a fun atmosphere for the most part, sadly the burgers were sub-par to be kind. One reviewer raved about the jalepeno burger, which I tried on that recommendation, must have gotten lucky or you've never had a decent burger before. Mine was spongy, fatty, and seemed like one of those cheapo-pre-fab slabs you get in packets at Wal-Mart. The bun was flat and it tasted like the whole thing had been sitting under a heat lamp for half the day. I'd never go back, and once again Raleigh has let me down with seemingly high reviews for what turns out to be GARBAGE food I wouldn't feed my dog.

• Pros: Fun, mellow atmosphere and good beer
• Cons: If you do ONE thing, do it marginally right!

Great Burgers at a Great Price

by Carydude

First time there; my son recommended it since he's been to Mojoe's before. Shrum burger was very good. Onion rings were among the best I have ever had. Our experience with the wait staff was very good; asked multiple times if we needed anything. Best to get there between 5-6 at night; after 6 the waiting line starts. Also being downtown, finding parking is an adventure. Definitely will go back again.

• Pros: Great burgers for the price
• Cons: Finding parking nearby

HORRIBLE BURGERS, WAITSTAFF AND MANAGERS

by Dutch5000

Waitstaff is horrible...If they mess up your order, they'll try to make YOU feel bad. Management makes excuses for the bad service by saying, "alot of people like they're attitude." Burgers aren't even worth the BS.

• Pros: The exit sign
• Cons: Gross waitstaff and burgers

Frozen burger patties should not be show cased...

by BrandyandBrian

We went there for lunch today, and were very excited about burgers for lunch. Sitting on the patio was very nice and our server was sweet. Our burgers while sounding yummy, tasted like they were pre-formed frozen patties. The Smush burger was lite on the toppings (sauteed mushrooms and onions) and the Jack Daniels BBQ burger tasted like the bbq sauce had been poured directly out of a bottle. Nothing seemed fresh or homeade as one may expect from a place claiming to be a burger joint. The beer battered onion rings were very good, but I am pretty sure they were frozen as well. All in all we will bot be returning. If you are craving burgers, go to Five Guys its 110% better!

• Pros: Nice location
• Cons: Bad food

Burgers are Average

by wstein99

Love the atmosphere, this place should be one of those small places that server "the best". I've been there three times in two years and always wonder why a "Burger Joint" has average burgers. The buns were obviously bought at the grocery store and not even fresh. The burger meat was either a really dry grind or something bought frozen wholesale. I love the idea of a "burger joint" and hoped this would be weekly stop but I'm wondering if they are so attached to the beer revenue the food quality really doesn't matter.

• Pros: Not a Chain
• Cons: Hamburgers

Great customer service and the food was great

by tsmithwa

Oh, My Gosh. I loved this place.The food,service, and prices were great. It's an ideal place for students or adults that don't want to spend to much. The wings were great and it was one of the best dates I have ever been on. This one of the best resturants's I've ever been to.

• Pros: great atmosphere
• Cons: it was hot outside

HORRIBLE Customer Service!!!!!

by jdtalley

Although the seating outside is decent, I was appalled at how rude the waitstaff and the manager was to their customers. After waiting for 30 minutes on two single burgers, I simply asked the waitress if our food was almost ready. She replied in a very short manner, "I put it in." Then after an hour of waiting on our food, I asked her again what was going on, because a group had come in after us and they were nearly finished with their meal. She said, "Oh I forgot to put in your order," I replied "Why did you tell me you put it in before," and she said "Look I am busy and I don't have time for you." From there another waiter came and said he could make my girlfriend and I leave for being rude. I left!!! MAD!! and on top of that I never received an apology from anyone at Mojoes. I will never go back regardless of how good the food is, because their customer service is HORRIBLE!!

• Pros: alright atmosphere
• Cons: very poor service
