No Mo!

by spazannie

It probably is the best hamburger in the city, except that it comes with a side of INSECT (brown, with antennas, a hard shell, and six legs - CitySearch won't let me distinguish it's kind). Seriously! The restaurant was crowded so we sat at the counter. Just as I finished the first half of my very delicious burger (Western w/ cheddar) the medium sized insect came out to say hello. It crawled around the counter for a while and then scampered away. Sadly, I did not finish my burger, and sadly, I won't be back to Mo's.

• Pros: Awesome Burger, Great fries
• Cons: Cleanliness, Insects on the table, GROSS Factor

This North Beach burger joint puts a gourmet twist on the all-American sandwich.

by Contributor

In Short
Named after the ringleader of the Three Stooges, North Beach's gourmet version of the all-American burger joint is adorned with black-and-white stills of the comic trio. The menu, of course, focuses on burgers, each featuring a seven-ounce patty and a wide variety of upscale accoutrements like caramelized onions, avocados and blue cheese. Other dishes include kebabs, rotisserie-grilled chicken and fresh salads.

Great burger, great fries, great price

by Sarah

I'm slightly afraid to write this review for fear that the next time I want a great burger, I'll have to wait in line! Mo's makes a great burger - large, homemade bun, toasted, two kinds of deli mustard, options from caramelized onions to blue cheese to guacamole, and great fries cooked fresh. It was the first meal for two that we've been able to find in North Beach for under $20 in a long time - and we'll be back for more!

• Pros: good fries, cooked to order, fresh hamburger

I Need Mo!

by howudoinsf

I've been to Barney's, In n Out and a ton of other burger places but as far as I'm concerned, Mo's is the best. Take a 1/3 lb of chuck, grill it over charcoal and thrown in some shoestring, freshly cut fries and you've got yourself a winner. I usually go for the BellyBuster (cheddar, grilled onions) or the Western (BBQ sauce, bacon and chedder) Service is prompt and friendly. There are other items on the menu such as meat loaf, chicken and gasp, salads, but stick with the burgers if you're not a vegetarian...

• Pros: Great Burgers, Decent Service
• Cons: No Parking

Best burgers - bar none

by zooter

Mo's delivers the best and freshest burgers possible. The meat is ground fresh each day and the fries are made from real potatoes. That, and expert cooking on a huge grill at the front of the restaurant makes for a very juicy, unadulterated burger.

• Pros: Inexpensive, Great shakes, Counter seating
• Cons: North Beach parking

Best burger in town

by rrussellinsf

Best burger in town. It's really steak so you can get it cooked like civilized people eat meat. Fries are great too.

Gotta go for the burgers

by printfan

I have always loved hamburgers, but at this point in my life, I only eat them at Mo's. After trying Mo's for the first time, all others are completely disappointing and not worth ordering. Get the bacon and cheese options, and don't forget the garlic fries!

What's the Raving about?

by Paniagua

What's everybody else eating and raving about? Our burgers were big, messy and tasted like cardboard. I wish we had just gone to McDonald's.Do youself a favor and skip this place, it's not worth the hassle of finding a parking spot.

• Pros: None
• Cons: Parking, Taste

Nice Service, Terrible Food

by JanieJewels

This was the worst hamburger I have ever had. All of those that call this the best need to venture on and see what real hamburgers are supposed to taste like. It was sopping with grease (that's not juice!) too thin and was unevenly cooked. The worst! I'd rather have Barneys or even an In-N-Out Burger!!!! The only thing that saved me from sending it back was the Good Chocolate Milkshake and the nice waitress. Never again for a burger!
