Great place for lunch or dinner in Pismo Beach. Pulled Pork sandwich was excellent and beer was icy cold.. The servings were huge. Very reasonable prices. Service was prompt and friendly.

All flavours of ribs were mouth watering. Only problem was that I could not possibly eat more. Liked the dog friendly tables outside. Took take-out three more times.

Like the original San Luis Obispo Mo's Smokehouse BBQ, this restaurant serves ribs, pulled port, and beef sandwiches based upon the best recipes from Texas to Georgia. NIce counterbalance to the "California cuisine" that dominates the mild-to-high-range restaurant industry in California.

We know the Mo's in SLO, and were looking for something last min. in Pismo and parked just across from Mo's. Others on the block looked like lines waiting, so we popped in and enjoyed our meal.

Took my grandkids here for lunch (again) and it was another hugh hit! They love this BBQ. They even make their own potato chips. For meat eaters this place is a must!

Can't say enough about the great food at Mo's. excellent doesn't even cover to flavor and service. We never miss at least one stop there and sometimes even two in a visit to Pismo.

The best BBQ I have ever had! Everyone in our party agreed! The pork was perfect flavor with no fatty pieces that had to be picked out. The chicken was delicious and not dry. The ribs were tender and the BBQ sauce was homemade and not over sweet. We had a basket of homemade potato chips, YUM!
